Are theme teams that important or would you say they overrated?? ima play on 2 accs this yr a p2w and a nms cuz of the grind in mut now i usually have more but yea idk if i want a tt or not this yr on my p2w
Tbh non-tt are usually better, but imo a tt is more fun to make and the boosts help a lot more at the beginning of the year.
Unless it's a good theme team, full theme team are probably a bit overrated at the moment because you still have to start a decent number of bad players even with the boosts. They're best in a couple months november/December/January when the boosts can still be impactful and most teams have a decent amount of startable players in terms of important non physical stats like man/zone coverage.
I do think a 25/50 theme team is probably very good right now especially if it's someone like the seahawks who have a lot of good high ovr options.
Running Packers/Titans right now. There are disadvantages to it (some players are faster on opponents teams), but to beat good teams with players you like makes a TT even more rewarding imo

tats a good idea my fav teams are cowboys and falcons so ig ima do a 25/50 w those 2
Right now there’s too many holes. I’ve got a 50/50 Bills TT and if not for some rookie premieres I’d have some big issues. I’m only an 83/83/84 with Hester, Ramsey, and Sean Taylor as fillers. My team would be considerably better if I went for just better cards. My LG is a 75 and a liability at times.
I think it’s a more fun and creative way to play, but you’ve gotta scheme around some shortcomings. I could afford Sherman and Sanders and they’d immediately make me better but I roll with 83 Tre White and 84 Stephon Gilmore on the outside. Against god squads I can only run man as a surprise, could never count on it for extended coverage.
If you want to be hyper competitive in h2h, make a god squad. If you are a house rules fan like myself TTs are fun

This is also a super valid point. Nothing better than seeing your opponent come out to a top 3 of the 3 best cards that just released earlier that day and within 3-4 snaps you know those cards won’t save him and my Josh Allen will outduel his Warren Moon.
Equally bad feeling is seeing that same top 3 and the dude can play and you know Moon is about to sling it.

It depends on the content. Right now w these small releases for promos it's hard af.
Last year when they did promos w tons of cards and every team got something it was easier.
We'll see what things look like once wildcard Wednesday and totw get going

Not sure we're getting wild card Wednesday. Last year, we only got it after the super bowl and on tuesdays. It was pretty much the post-super bowl version of totw.
I've got 30 Raiders on my TT right now but almost all are back-ups. I prefer playing with my team so I'm not that bothered by how good or bad the side is but, right now, the +2STR, +1SPD etc can't hurt.
Usually I do half Steeler TT and then have god ish squad so I get the best of both worlds, trying to put Steelers as all backups and then getting the good ones
25 Seahawks and 25 Ravens has treated me very well. I’m 10-0 in h2h seasons but can’t play it the last two days because of an error message saying the ea servers are processing my last win. I think split TT is the way to go this year since you get that plus 1 speed at 25 instead of at 40 like last year.

yea ima prob do 25/50 w cowboys and falcons my 2 fav teams on a alt and non tt on my main p2w i forgot bout 25/50s thanks for the reminder
TTs can provide certain individual players the boosts they need to be the best in the game, but TTs often have huge holes in them. It depends whether you want the absolute best at a certain position, or want an overall better team. TTs will never actually be better overall than someone who just buys the best stock players at each position.
I do 25 Raiders max and sometimes not even that.
Personally, I like using theme teams cause it gives me a focus instead of spending crazy amounts of money on all the best cards. Instead I focus on cards that fit the team.
More of a financial take but if your nms the boosts honestly havent been that noticeable.
