Why the Snow Grind?

Probably a dumb question.. Are you throwing all your snow in presents? Opening packs currently? I dont get why so many have so much snow.

I'm throwing it at presents and selling them all none of the players are any good to me.

There was an "unlimited" (11 per day) Snowflake glitch last weekend.  Sadly, i missed it, but apparently if you won a single game in the Zero Chill House Rules game mode, you could then proceed to "Retire Event" 11x in a row in order to max out your rewards.  Rinse, repEEAT.  Folks made bank on that stuff.

Others (i'm speculating) are burning through Training, using up their 100x rerolls.  1000 Training for random (250-2000) Snowflake reward amounts.  Definitely not a dumb question.  Hope that helps, i have limited understanding, as well.

I highly recommend that everyone save each and every single present you are able to earn.  It's typically better to have 10-20 Simple presents to open and hope you get extremely lucky, than it would be, to say, have a small handful of Nice/Lavish gifts.  The better/best value is often from the smaller gifts.  YMMV, ultimately you should do whatever YOU want.  Have you guys seen the leaked LTDs OOP for Xmas?

Not trying to spoil anyone's Christmas, but i believe we'll be seeing the following:

1. William Perry "Fridge" QB
2. Deion Sanders WR
3. Rob Gronkowski MLB - with 0AP LurkArtist
4. Bo Jackson SS

I'm spacing on the last one, uhhhh I'll try to come back and edit the post once it occurs to me... sorry, stupid brain failing me.

11 per day - that's 11 games, not 11 tournaments. you could skip (retire) 11 games to get 1950 snowflakes. that's it. when you exceeded that limit you would get a message "you're out of retires for today, try again tomorrow". kinda hard to make bank on 1950 snowflakes a day

I'm fairly certain one can receive way more than 1950 Snowflakes per H2H House Rules event, plus the Charvarius Ward card... although, don't quote me on that -- I can't seem to get much beyond a handful of wins in a row, before succumbing to the sweaty ass gauntlet.  For example, i was getting 500 Snowflakes from my 3rd H2H victory.  I assume it jumps to 1000 after?  Obviously don't quote me on that, i know nothing.

Ahh well, he would have only been a depth piece on the theme team... but those extra Snowflakes are extremely valuable.  Thanks for helping to correct me here.

Never heard of the retire glitch in H2H tournament

I've seen youtubers talking about that glitch in the offline "Reason for the season" event, and I accidentally discovered this glitch myself when I lost my connection to EA servers mid-game, playing "Reason for the season". To activate the glitch you needed to lose the connection. I believe if you'd do that in H2H you'd get a big fat L

Im throwing all my snow into presents yes.
