Have You Been Able to Build a 20/20/20/20 Lineup?

Given enough coins, this has actually been possible since Team Diamonds released:

52 players
+3 Rookie Premiere second team chemistry
+9 Team Builders second team chemistry
+3 Team Captains additional team chemistries
+12 Team Diamonds x3 team chemistries (one for each team as well as Eli Manning and Julius Peppers)
+3 Team Chemistry Strategy Item

It’s been reported that Epic Team Chemistry Strategy Items are available, which would make it possible to build a four-team theme team without any Rookie Premiere players. Also, it’s almost time for another Team Captains drop, so that may help reduce the number of Team Diamonds 95 OVR items needed.

Have you been able to pull this off?

Why would I even want to? Does that +1 speed everywhere really make that much of a difference?

On second thought, I guess that Michael Strahan LTD could really use it.

If there is corresponding game-speed ACC to get a player to top SPD, that +1 can be the difference between an interception and only a tip-defended pass, or as you suggested, between a quarterback hit that stops the ball from going anywhere (or even registers as a fumble) and a completion for a big gain. +1 SPD is a big deal.

While many goon squad players would settle for only two or three teams getting boosts, it is technically possible to get four, and potentially practical to get the fourth. For users that received more than three Rookie Premieres following the botched rollout, you can align a lineup with four 20/30’s and still have room for up to four goons. If Team Captains get more objectives later today, that may jump up to five.

+1 SPD is not that big of a deal. By the time you get this done there will be better cards to add to TT chem. Besides that, most of the backups won't even play, so you're spending big for a lot of nothing. If all that (plus the cost) is not enough to consider this a fool's errand, it's a given that the TT thresholds will increase, maybe multiple times before end game. Most defensive cards do not rely on speed anyways, and you'll be missing out on cards with better stats, traits, xfactors and abilities.

All of my starters have +1 SPD, as well as some backups without going through all this. That's more than adequate as speed ratings seem to matter even less this year than in years past.
