I'm not sure you want to take info from that guy, he's feeding his community terrible info, such as "it's April, you don't need Gift-Wrapped anymore."  Which couldn't be further from the truth.  Anyway, it's been in-game for at least a day, or so... i assume whenever the latest Redzone Royale (with Joey Bosa and baby Gronk HB) is when we got that, sorry my memory is shot and i can't recall which specific day i saw my BND reward upon login.

So i believe they're paying out for back sets, as well.  I was caught by surprise when i logged in and had a 99 BND RR set waiting for me.  I guess it's choose four cards, WOW.  Definitely progress.  Wonderful change.

No, they're complete opposites

Nerfing means the set would be even worse. Buffing means it would be better. 

So no...

Previously you got nothing. Now you get 4 to 8 of them as bounds. Sounds like quite the improvement to me.

His video was wrong, it doesn't make the sets any easier to "complete". Same requirements etc. You just got a a fantasy pack to choose 4 RR platers to get back AFTER completing it. It's literally no different than if someone had held off on the sets to the last part of the promo. He just needed a reason to release yet another video about the exact same stuff.

First, completely agree about that Youtuber! Most of his videos are the same basic info over and over and over and over (please see my next video, where I repeat this 10 more times over...and over). I watched him stream live one time, and he rage quit THREE games in a row! Yep, that's who I want game advice from! 

And to clarify the pack you have, it's a fantasy pack of all the 99 Champions - and you get to choose 4 from the pack! So it's actually even better than you thought.

I kind of like his videos, along with Chuflucka, those are the only (2) I really follow

Pop Stranger is interesting...most streamers are like in their 20s, but its weird to see Pop, who I think is late 30s/early 40s still getting excited about videos games...LOL

Chuflucka is amazing at the game, I think hes as good as some of the MCS players

I dont really think hes too good at the game, but I do like his information.  I basically skim through his videos as he does repeat himself a lot...I watch them on youtube at 3x speed...LOL

THANK YOU, actually just came looking for this thread to correct the misinformation I haphazardly posted above. Only glanced at the pack late last evening and boy was I surprised just now trying to build my second RP set. Had tons of RR to use in a set all of a sudden. Woot.

Well that was easy.  Guess I can just collect tokens for the final (3rd) RP set correct? 

Is it me, or is this Joey Bosa not particularly great?  Looks to be kind of a pure pass rusher, meh. At least compared with Dave Robinson, who is fantastic all over. Or even Seau. Anyway, thank you for trying to clue me in, appreciate the correction. Much obliged.

This is a rare W from EA, been missing these BND set pieces all year.  Peaches, peaches! 🍑
