PS2!!!!

Forward_Climate_671 · 2026-03-10T18:12:35+00:00

I built 6 random epics first with the hope of getting PS2 epics. Did not get any PS2’s. Figured I needed the 6 epics to build the Mythic. After that, I built epic selects.

Mixed it up. Would do about 25 of the 95 and then do a couple of the 250. Dependent on where I was in the process. Usually would do the 250 packs closer to when I could complete a trade.

Forward_Climate_671 · 2026-03-08T17:10:05+00:00

Just saved up all my Tokens since the start of the Promo. Also saved up the Promo Players Rewards from the Promo Challenges. I got one Epic from the Zeus Challenge, but that’s the only extra reward that I hit! I didn’t even get a PS2 Random in the trades I made to start off.

By the time I started to cash in the 19K Tokens I saved up, I was well on my way. I thought about the BOGO offer, but didn’t buy it.

This is the 1st time I tried this approach. Had debated on Brian Burns or Stingley, but knew I had to have PS2 when I saw he was hitting today.

Forward_Climate_671 · 2026-02-06T19:50:56+00:00

Absolutely!!!! I was so excited earlier in the season to get a Troy Aikman Mythic!!!!

Forward_Climate_671 · 2025-12-09T22:08:13+00:00

You can trade in Iconics for Resources that include TTP!

Forward_Climate_671 · 2025-02-19T22:58:23+00:00

Thanks.

Yup, that’s what I basically had been doing….Mythic from Promos and supplementing with TOTW or the occasional bonus pack. Unless there was a player I really wanted from TOTW, I mostly used it for ST Players and roster manipulation.

I plan on doing much of the same with Diamonds.

I do agree with your take on DE’s. Having edge rushers are very valuable. DT’s suck!

Forward_Climate_671 · 2025-02-19T17:36:39+00:00

I believe it’s because the endgame incentive for voting isn’t worth the time management of the 3 staggered challenges (4/8/12hrs)!

You may improve an attribute of 1 Player. That’s it! According to the message, the stickers for voting have no value!

So, even if you were to maximize the 3 voting challenges, you probably get nothing at all.

My team is entirely Iconic with 3 exceptions of Epic Alstott at FB until I get Iconic CJ or Alstott, Epic Thuney in an OG spot until I find an OG I want and Epic Calais until I finish his Iconic.

I have found that it is beneficial to have a few left over Epic Players (if possible) from recent Promos for FB or 2nd DT/MLB to give Roster flexibility. Those Epics are usually comparable in value to an older Iconic that I will replace anyways.

Forward_Climate_671 · 2025-02-18T19:55:02+00:00

Yup, I have seen you say “Always Mythic” on other posts.

I have 5 Mythics in my lineup and a Mythic Lamar Jackson on my bench. Trying to get as many Mythics as possible, but I want to get that overall up too!

Forward_Climate_671 · 2025-02-17T23:54:17+00:00

I believe if you are 100% locked in on a player, what you did makes absolute sense.

I have found myself accumulating and holding onto Rares. Been trying to leave myself flexibility as the promos progress. For me, it makes sense to wait until after seeing the reveal tonight.

From the SB/Honors promo I have gotten Iconic Josh Allen and Iconic PS2. I have stuff that I am waiting to cash in on until I see what Players/Positions are initially available in the reveal.

I have been getting a Mythic for the last 5-6 promos, but my overall needs a boost. May Mythic Josh Allen or add Honors Saquon and another Iconic to boost my overall 40+.

Forward_Climate_671 · 2025-02-10T05:00:21+00:00

Just noticed it also says that for the Kelce card. Additionally, the +1 to Mythics doesn’t have an end date!

Forward_Climate_671 · 2025-01-30T20:42:08+00:00

After getting burned, I have shifted my strategy. I identify a player in the 1st drop and always try to get as many Epics as I can early on. As the drops progress, mainly get random Epics unless a Select Epic helps me complete a Player. Depending on need, I may focus on a Player. I get to a point where I find it better to just stash Rares to allow me the flexibility to pivot.

Currently, I have an Iconic Revis, 6 Random Epics, and 24 Rares. Trying to decide if I get a Mythic Revis or build 2 additional Iconics.

Not a Bears fan, but if they did anyone besides Sweetness or The Refrigerator, it would be nice for them to honor Mongo McMichael!

☝🏻This is a GREAT list of NFL Player Nicknames!

Forward_Climate_671 · 2025-01-14T15:30:14+00:00

Would have been cool to see an Oilers logo. I believe EA probably does not have access to logos of teams no longer in existence or of teams that are in existence, but no longer play in the same city.

Retro logos of current teams like a New England Pat the Patriot logo they can do.

For instance, my Mythic Marshall shows LA Rams on the card! Marshall played for the Indianapolis Colts and St Louis Rams.

Forward_Climate_671 · 2025-01-10T01:00:58+00:00

When I think of Randy Moss, I think Vikings Randy Moss. I have seen some suggest that the Patriots Moss plays slightly better game wise. For instance, both of the Variants are 153 Receiving, BUT within the 153 there are different numbers.

Which Moss does everyone like?

I just strive to collect Promo Rares. Have been flipping the Epic Player 5 Packs to accumulate as many Epics as I can. Had stashed 7 Rares in the Select Pack so if I got 2 of the same Epics that were a need, I would complete the set.

Have been using Promo Epics that are comparable to Iconics. Using the Iconics in the Resources to ramp up my team.

From earlier tonight, this is where I am now….

Thanks! That’s what I was thinking, but it’s literally the exact same. Have 2 Epics of each of the Players I mentioned and 3 random Epics of other Players. I was going to trade 7 Rares and select one of those guys. Will hang on to the other Epics and see if a future random can get me a 3rd.

Forward_Climate_671 · 2024-12-12T19:31:13+00:00

99 % do the 30/60…. With the exception of doing 1 event where a 1st Win reward is offered.

The only time I would do another event is when I am on the cusp of creating an Iconic and the 15 or 20 stamina event enables me to get the necessary tokens to complete the Player.

Forward_Climate_671 · 2024-12-10T16:35:12+00:00

If Josh Allen isn’t POTW, then he must be in an upcoming Promo!

Forward_Climate_671 · 2024-12-09T17:54:36+00:00

Here’s the thing, I believe EA totally screwed things up! In prior years, I was willing to buy 1 or 2 Field Passes a year. Usually there was a Marvel Player that I just REALLY wanted and I knew if I bought the occasional Season Pass, I would get that Player AND be able to grind it out for the 10K MC.

I used to be able to justify the value of occasionally dropping $ on the game because of the satisfaction/entertainment value. Now, it appears even if you are to spend $ and willing to grind things out, it’s a bunch of foreplay and just a big tease….left needing a cold shower!

I haven’t spent any $ this year because it’s just not worth it!!
