How can you spend 2 grand on this game and be sitting on 5 mil total value?

Finished top 200 in MCS on weekend. Decided I was gonna sell team and do Peppers set on companion app to make about 3 million in coin. Finish him Sunday night. Post for 3.38 mil. Wake up. Hasn’t sold. A few sold for more than that. Post all day yesterday for an hour at a time. Other cards still selling before mine. Now it’s Tuesday and it still will not sell and is now selling for 2.8 and falling. I’ve put up with a lot of crap from this company but this is the last straw. I pulled SIX limiteds between August and October to pull ZERO from October till now. I also pulled numerous useful BND cards to start the year and haven’t pulled one since. Why would I buy the ZC premium pass again?

I could very easily be sitting at a team value of 15 mil but steep market drops, poor pack odds, and EA utilizing AI to ghost my larger auctions has put a huge damper on my team’s value. My team is worth 5.5MILLION COINS AFTER SPENDING 2 GRAND AND FINISHING TOP 100 MULTIPLE TIMES. THERE IS SOMETHING SERIOUSLY WRONG WITH THAT, EA. BE BETTER. And I will be suing you guys for fun with proxy lawyers rather than going NMS bc I can do that. Merry Christmas

Might wanna read up on the TOSbefore you go wasting your money and time.....again. You only having 5.5mill after spending "$2,000" is your fault entirely. You acting like EA controls the market and like they are forcing you to not sell cards when they are high to keep said value. Peppers not selling is your fault because you decided to the set when we have multiple players with way better 0 ap ability vs peppers. Is he good? Yes, but is he better than any of the zero chill players at this time? No. So why spend millions when you can get a 500k card that's gonna be 100x better than him....

It’s not nefarious. It’s the business model. Why be an Uber driver if you can work on the app or administrative side? You’ve chosen to be a pawn. You don’t get to complain about being used like one.

Sounds like you’re a corporate slave that likes taking it out on strangers on the internet. Before you go out of your way to put someone down for their economic status online, consider that some of us literally never have to work because our parents and Grandparents invented cool shit. Enjoy Monday, bud!

Wow, you’ve got me completely wrong, but since this is the Internet and there is little I can do to prove who I am under this avatar, suffice it to say I couldn’t care less about how you provide for yourself, or how others provided for you, provided you get three hots and a cot. No one should suffer hunger or homelessness.

My disgust with your complaint centers on the idea that participants in a glorified form of gambling not significantly different from “competitive poker” somehow deserve a financial safety net. Every time you try to compete in the MCS qualifiers, you are betting on yourself. The difference between MUT and Poker Championships is that you can pay cash in advance to ‘stack the deck’. If anything, participants in the MCS are the last ones that deserve to complain about the financial costs of MUT when in the day-to-day they get to curbstomp amateurs and casuals and add to their coin stacks via extra snow and presents.

You spend money ‘to be competitive’. You’ll get no sympathy from me, or the 99.9% of Madden gamers who actually have their enjoyment of this game deprived directly by people who play the game as you do.

You have no moral high ground here, and there’s nothing left on my side to attack. Have a great evening.
