This was enough to tip the scales for me and pre-order. The devs put in awesome work on this and I'm extremely excited to see it in action!

I think the seasons sounds like a cool idea. I'm still holding out on a pre-order, I just didn't like 2k20. A lot of work seems to have been put into MyTeam though and if I do end up getting the game a fair amount of my time will be spent in MyTeam

MyTeam and MyLeague are my main modes. This blog definitely leaning towards buying

A lot of good stuff here. Still wish they would do away with contracts and add a draft mode. As fun as the draft mode is in MUT I think having a basketball version would be that much better.

I wonder why more offline guys don't play MyTeam. They've added a lot of fun stuff to do without having to spend a dime...

Would have liked a mode similar to unlimited 2.0 but with lineup restrictions in terms of card colour. Similar to those common “you have $15 to make a lineup” type of things. The mode is brain dead action once it’s Galaxy Opals vs Galaxy Opals and everyone is just shooting 3’s from half court and dunking from anywhere. Let’s force people make build rosters around a star and make team building actually matter

Because, it’s fantasy basketball, unrealistic ratings, wasted time, and all they ever want is $. That’s at least my take, but to each their own. If you could carry over the MyTeam players over to the off line roster then I could be interested but I think that is one of the catches of why some players are only MyTeam available only.

I didn't spend a dime on MT last year and had a great time with it. If I'm not lacing my shoes up I consider all of this fantasy basketball., lol

You should try it out if you haven't. You may like it. Its definitely not for everyone though...

Now the online aspect of MyTeam, I won't mess with it past the first couple of weeks.

You could've stopped right here. It's not a My League substitute. I have never even opened the mode.

I gave it a try but others have hit on why I don't like it. It basically turns into plugging and playing the best cards regardless of the player, and to some degree position. I'd rather just do a fantasy draft with will all the players and actually have some strategy with building a roster and team.

I was enjoying the mode a bit when I start but once I got a Reggie Jackson card, can't remember what level the card was, where he played like a slightly taller Chris Paul with a better 3 point shot I began losing interest. There's just a big disconnect for me when basically any player can turn into a HOF caliber player if you get the right card. Like even the 2020 draft class players have cards that can make them as good as anyone in the game. Once you get enough good cards the fun factor starts to dissipate especially when some of those players aren't even that good in real life.

Edit: And to clarify this is from a mostly offline gamer. If I was more into playing online or had friends that had their own My Teams squads I could have more fun with this mode but from a strictly offline perspective the charm of the mode starts wears off once you get enough good cards IMO.

I'm gonna guess contracts are still a thing since they didn't announce it as a "feature".

It sounds good, they threy need to improve the online gameplay less cheese and if they can return to the good old days when not so many galaxy opals, as you said a lot of unrealistic player ratings on 2K20.
