Did a stupid thing that’s made me enjoy this game more

So I had a team made up of lots of BND players from completing sets, pre order players etc plus a million coins. I got so bored of having the same team everyone else does so I did something extreme. I quicksold all of them and built a Saints TT.

now, it’s a dumb move in terms of coin. I ended up with 10k TP and spent ALL of my coins and still don’t have every top card.

but damn it, I’m having fun again.

I haven’t faced anyone using Winston at QB. But I love using him, his release is so smooth. Knocking DBs down with Mark Ingram and getting pick 6’s with Marcus Williams and the Honey Badger.

Im broke, I’ve got a lower overall team than I had before, but I’m having fun again.

don’t be a slave to your coins.

What a refreshing viewpoint.  Love hearing this!

I’m convinced theres an algorithm that rewards you when you switch up players, plays, etc and nerfs you when you don’t. If you play legend solo battles and know how to glitch the AI presnap you might already know what I’m talking about.   im glad youre having fun, but I can’t remember a year where the DDA was this obvious.  I’m just here to remind people to not buy any stupid bundles for this game so it will actually get fixed one day. At least you got that part right.

Keep us posted.  Would be interested to hear how your team changes affect your enjoyment of the game this season.  Thanks for sharing!

I did something similar. Was sitting on 2.7 mil with broncos and bnd players. 
 

So I went buffalo bills TT jumping on the band wagon and am having so much fun.

Nice, don’t think I’ve ever ran into a saints theme team. And honey badger has always played so well in madden for me. Even being so short he gets a ton of interceptions

Yeah he’s an absolute ball hawk. I think one thing that stops people doing it is the low level of legends that normally drop for Saints

I think that’s the problem. TT this year and especially this early are not that great especially if your not in the top 5 for legends and they want you to go full god squads and legend teams. 
 

I had a 50/50 steelers that was okay at best. I’ve switched to about a 35/50 (oline, dbs, and wr help) and it’s a huge difference.

Thanks for sharing. It's too easy to get stuck trying to get as many coins as possible. It's a game and should be fun to play. I enjoy playing and don't take any of this too seriously. Good for you!

It really is, and as you say, too easy to forget that it’s just a game and supposed to be fun!

Got yourself some Vick action all for the low low price tag of 2 mil lol
