Rookie Premier

I'm  new this year. Are these cards that you buy this year for next year's game? The name rookie premier just doesn't seem to make sense as next year's rookies seem to have cards.

ya, so you'll do sets, challenges, etc to get rookie premier cards that will be 99 this year. Then next year to start the year you will get a similar card with a lower overall. This year they were 84s, but starting the year with up to 32 84s is a huge advantage.

Thank you.

Yeah but it's the only way to somewhat transfer everything we did, every year I break down my team to however much coin i can and do as many if not all the RPs weather it's worth it or not what else is there to do when your never coming back to this madden(24) again and moving on to the future madden(25) I wish there was some other way to transfer my 5 to 10 million coins a year to the next madden and yes I know there are but not legally by EAs standards if you don't wanna get banned.

Doubt they give us 32 RPs I know they have like when the promo was new but the past couple years they been doing it different like last year it wasnt 32 84s it was like pick up to 7 or something and the year before that you could get them all but there definitely wasn't 32 80+ cards EA would never do that and if they did you'd have to spend like 15 to 30 million coin to do it not many normal mut people sitting around with 15+ million coin

Last year the program allowed the creation of one 99 RP per team and if all 32 were created via sets you received a 99 Hutchison.  Players (I was one of em) received an 84ovr for each 99ovr built in M23 along with an 87ovr Hutchinson. 
 

The program disappointed some last year b/c the 84s weren’t available on the worldwide launch date. For the money spent crowd this was disappointing because the cards weren’t so compelling b/c there were holes in the team. For a NMS player like myself it was pretty cool - I won a couple early H2H SBs with this roster ahead of Ultimate Kickoff.

Yeah they definitely do one for every team for a total of 32 and then you got a master.  All 32 were bnd but I believe you could sell the master Aiden Hutchinson.  And yeah it cost about 15-20 million last year for people to complete every single one And towards the end of the sets the price just goes up so it’s better to try and get them done early if you wanna do any. Like others have said it’s really just not worth it. It took EA 2-3 weeks to finally get everyone the cards they were sup to get.  And by then some of the RPs were already outdated.  So you just gotta weigh if it’s worth it to you, I’ll do a couple but I’m not stressing about all 32 plus the master

Yeah I remember that now I guess I just wish it went back to when RPs made a difference guess that was when they upgraded every time the player got a new card, but I still think it's worth doing otherwise just lose couple million coin every year I guess

There's always a few really good cards, CJ Stroud's 99 last year was the best QB in the game, and Julius Brents was Lockdown for the better part of the first season this year.

I liked RP better when the cards upgraded throughout the year.

Brents was getting playing time for me until 93’s came out… he was a dawg

Sorry, this year to start the year it was 32. Last year it was 15 tokens and you could use like 5 tokens to get an auctionable one, 3 tokens for one that quicksold for full training, and 1 token for bnd. I'm not sure how they will do it this year, especially since it seems like rp is dropping later than usual but I liked getting the 32 rps to start the year.

It might not be as much as this year. In previous years it was only about 10x RP cards for the next mut. This was the first time they did this much and honestly I think EA regrets doing 32x of them. We still ended up waiting weeks for them too.

They dont want us having 32x free cards next year if the greed from this year shows anything. I literally did not have to upgrade my team the first month or two this year thanks to RP and thats something I think EA wants to avoid again.(they want us dropping $ to upgrade)
