So how is this a promo?

No solos, no pass?  So now promos consist of just paying money to pull packs and try to pull a normal or LTD. version of random new cards?  Hmmmmm.

They have these all the time. Its just a promo like TD is just cards.

ohhh its a promo, a money promo lol EA greedy gnawing rats

Holy shit, really?  They replaced AKA with legit cash-only content?  Oh man, if this weren't so obvious, brutal and pathetic it'd almost be comical how little effort EA is putting forth these days.

We're made to suffer, it's our lot in life.  Wanting to enjoy and play a competent NFL simulation video game in the 21st century is akin to searching for the holy grail, my goodness.  And if the Blitz promo is any indication, these cards are going to be ridiculously expensive, as the pack odds are as bad as they've ever been, from what little i can tell.  Good luck out there, fellas.

It's difficult for me to even be surprised at this point.  I keep saying this, but it feels liek EA has basically given up on even trying.  BUY MORE PACKS, don't think about it too hard.  I tried to walk away, but nothing hits quite liek the NFL experience, as flawed as it may be.

wow lol

What was the last promo that dropped which had ONLY packs to purchase, hell even Blitz had a few different game modes and that was obviously a cash-grab.  It was bad enough when EA started to gate specific Solo Battles, requiring us to have a certain amount of players / cards (thinking Gridiron Guardian) in the roster to play through those... yet somehow this is far worse.  Far more lazy and pathetic, IMO.

Absolutely ridiculous

This is nothing new… you can see who’s been around and who hasn’t.

Limited Thursday… Boss Legends…

Only issue is, why make a 92 and a 93 when they’re pack pulled cards.

Nope straight money spending. and it’s going to be like this every Monday. AKA was better because of sets smh

They do them every so often. TD is always just cards. 

In past maddens: AM, CH, GTs, Stocking Stuffers, Team Builders, TTR, WW, Flashbacks/HW/Vets, etc, Power ups, Redux,

You can tell who’s new and who’s old…

Boss Legends for example

Thanks, guess that's why I haven't yet  experienced this, personally.  Appreciate the explanation and historical context that i'm obviously lacking.  The 10 year old was in the process of convincing me to purchase Madden `23 around this time last year.  It's been a wild and interesting ~11, or so, months of MUT.

TD had solo challenges last year.  I remember doing them...

It's a pay $ for a Ltd program. Aka blitz failed need to save face.
