I'm scared to death as an old gen player that there's not enough auction house activity for people to even complete the sets. The master is going to be the rarest card in the game and it's not even close imo.

Even on new gen… I’ve been trying to build up a couple of 50/50 TTs and some cards just virtually never come up on the AH. When they add diamonds into the mix we’re gonna lose even more of that with set completions.

Very good point, Ahawkalypse.  They might decide to just make the program like the TD2 version has been the last two years - almost entirely a wildcard-like setup, with minimal team-specific requirements.  That would also mean every card less than, say, 86 becomes completely useless for the rest of the year (unless you're waiting on Theme Team Remix!)...

Let's be honest here, the idea that EA is going to do something that is unique and/or creative is essentially nil.  As per usual, i'm fully expecting we'll get more of the usual low-effort, recycled nonsense.  So whatever program(s) from prior years most reflect the current state of the game, that very much feels liek a safe bet.  It wouldn't surprise me if we get a nearly identical implementation of Team Diamonds 2 promo from last season, with slightly adjusted OVR to match this year's game.  Obviously i know nothing, but this speculation seems as good as any.

I'm waiting on the requirements acting 3 days before or however many days is just not a good investement to me. they always throw a curveball at us. and EA watches the market like vultures circling a dead deer a lot.

It's possible we get a screenshot of a single TD's build requirements (we've gotten something like this in past reveals) during tonight's GMM stream.  If we do - and the program doesn't release til Friday midday - there'll be plenty of time to guess as to what the other 31 teams requirements are.  And I'll certainly get those wrong.
