60/60 Playoffs Theme team was a mistake

Not hard to be NMS and have 45 mil lmao. Just work the auction house and make good investments.

It's pretty hard. I know a lot of the YT guys (like CC, Throne, Problem,etc). A lot of them make money/get donations from subs and/or get cards to try out....but I guess if you spend your life playing the game it is possible. I have a family, a few businesses, a career in NYC.....that I love. I used to play comp Madden a long time ago but now priorities are different. My kids are everything.

There's a difference between having lower tier playoff cards boosted and having the 95 LTDs boosted because of the better abilities. So even if you  are 60/60 you may not have the best discounted abilities...for example the stack that Stroud gets.

I personally preferred when EA gave us Legends chems but that's just me

Fire squad! Curious if you noticed a reduction in effectiveness from Gronk and Moss (CB) without the ZC/GhostF chems? I tried a similar mix to yours but felt a drop in use and production. Seemed like the speed drops affected them.

Well I user Gronk and have really not seen a drop off . Moss is probably still my best CB.

Hello all. I hope you are enjoying the NFL Playoffs. 

I am NMS but Madden is the only video I play, when it's in season. I have a 60/60 theme team with 98 speed safeties and linebackers, 98 speed HB and TE. OL +3 strength sheesh etc. Josh Allen budget QB over stroud and McNair with 94 speed still and 4AP PLE. Unstoppable Fearless XF. 

I think it is too overpowering. How do you allow a 95 OVR team with that speed so early in the game? We will have TOTY, UL, NFL honors and super bowl promo to go... and u gave us 98 speed cards? What a mistake. I promise u it is NOT nessasarily pay to win to get it. Cheap sets and other BND ×2 chems. 

I think it was a mistake, and 2× better than ZC theme team and definitely ghosts theme team bc ghosts theme teams LOSE attributes on your team. 

Thoughts?

my question is, what do you do for the backup RG 

i had to use 94 Isaac seumalo and use bitonio as starting LG lol

is there another way

Exactly... just off the aka crew market alone u can make millions a week off investments lol.

u can't be nms if u have Madden bucks, it's kinda the definition of nns, but that's just me, I'm nms, as in  i buy the game and will not come off a dollar for card art, I don't go online till Nov n but end of zc or buy end of Superbowl promo I'm winning multiple Superbowls , spending money for card art is kinda dumb imo,.

Yep how I did it. Sold Hester and Bullock for 100k profit each WED from MON's investment.

Pre order doesn't count. It's IN GAME purchases that count by definition.

I noticed this from high school to college and now a first year teacher and coach. Time is everything in your life and I think I wonder to this day how I do it all lol

At some point you will end up having to probably ease up on one thing and put more into another...teaching and coaching is great...I did some coaching and scouting befpre settling into my business career....but once you have a family , your use of time changes......hopefully you'll be able to continue to stream and make content that you enjoy....that's important and it helps the Madden community. Your vids and streams are cool and informative.....I wish you best of luck  with it. I keep up with a few content creators/streamers/tournament guys...I like Civil a lot , good guy, really informative also.

I used to spend hours each day playing Madden with a lot of the top leaderboard guys and in some cases they were some of the MCS pros that came on under different user IDs to gets some practice in, incognito. When squads came out I ran with a couple of top 10 guys and that was really fun. Even played with the son of a late, great, very famous rock star ( whose identity I will respect) ....but yeah it was great. 

But priorities change man.....anyway, keep doing what you're doing....like I said best of luck!!!

Playoffs are overpowered as it should be.  Give it like 3 weeks and the cards stats will look fine but the cards will be nerfed for the next promo.

ya they don't care how strong it is. Most people don't have the time to make that many coins so they buy packs. To get the competitive edge they have to open up their wallets, especially mcs people. It's just a money grab, every promo this year has had a chem to entice people to spend on it early to get that advantage
