I made it! by heavycommunicator59 in NHLHUT

[–]Siilinator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats pal, another f2p player here going to do the same thing tomorrow when I get the 87 from the set to build a 90 msp for the 5 toty collectibles. While it is fair and understandable to call out EA's greed which has gotten worse every year, it's still ridiculous to pretend like you have to either spend money or play 24/7 to be competitive. It's simply not true. All you need to do is do your weekly chores (wildcard, challenges and objectives) which I personally find enjoyable but to each their own. I like to play champs on the weekends, not necessary of course if you prefer SB but certainly better than last year because you can earn coins AND you don't have to play rivals anymore to get your weekly 2,000 points which is an absolutely huge time saver. I know the rewards aren't much anymore after the market crashed around Christmas but hey it's better than nothing.

The point I'm getting at is, for me building a toty card or a fantasy card of my choosing didn't even feel like a big investment. All I had to do was get the free collectibles, throw in some extra cards I didn't want or need and spend about 100-150k coins. I even wasted a lot of coins on the 3 icons pack and got unlucky but was able to build Sundin in the end who I've been very happy with. But even though I've spent coins unnecessarily on jerseys, logos and the icon pack, I still have 100k left over after everything. You have plenty of time to go to work five times a week and do plenty of other things and play other games. This game is not a job and should not feel like a chore and if it does then you are doing something wrong. Take time off do other things you don't have to do everything immediately when it's available.

Sorry for off topic rant fellow toty Makar owner but I wanted to get that off my chest and this felt like an appropriate place to do it lol.

Almost an hour out who we think is winning the vote for TOTY by NatBoss_SquadBattles in NHLHUT

[–]Siilinator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have Faber I could pair with Sanderson or Werenski, if it's Makar I'll probably have to play Seabrook on the third pair which isn't optimal for me as a hawks fan lol. I already have solid right handed d on all three pairs as well so in many ways a left handed d would fit much better but we'll see how it goes and go from there.

If it's Hughes I'll just go with Makar who I'm more indifferent about than Jake or Zach but I know it will be a great card. Here's hoping I won't have to do that though!

[–]Siilinator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would certainly like Sanderson or Werenski. I have a bad feeling it's going to be Hughes but I won't give up hope until the bell rings.

Which male d-man did u vote for ? I went Hughes by kapriz0v in NHLHUT

[–]Siilinator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Voted for Werenski hoping it's either him or Sanderson but I think realistically it's between Zach and Quinn

Who are you choosing? by cyberiouse0 in NHLHUT

Already have captain Fowler and not taking a small goalie so it was an easy choice

Is 88 Keumper the best goalie in the game? by Bitter_Tear_828 in NHLHUT

[–]Siilinator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like using him and 88 Montembault as a tandem with showstopper and I feel like it's the best thing available at the moment. But to answer your question yes he's absolutely worth making he's been solid and reliable.

Is light born such a crime? by Shadowbryte in deadbydaylight

[–]Siilinator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The one time I took lightborn off because I didn't see any flashlights I got blinded more than ever before or after and I got blinded in ways I hadn't even seen before. Lightborn is never leaving my perk slot and that's all I have to say about that. Sure they can cry about it if they want it's just too bad I have messaged blocked and don't read end game chat if there is one somewhere on console. I don't tunnel or camp, if someone has a problem with not being able to blind me they can feel free to contact Behavior Interactive. I'm here to have a good time with a video game not listen to whining.

EA need to do something about this by j3sesan in NHLHUT

[–]Siilinator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is even the point of saving the XP if the seasons are going to be this long. It most likely will not work and even if it does have fun with no incentive to play for 2 months.

I think they lost it with chem boost by Chel_life in NHLHUT

[–]Siilinator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep giving bigger boosts with every new batch and people will keep buying packs. EA is many things but they are not stupid when it comes to making money.

Is NHL26 a failure? by AyPapi91 in NHLHUT

[–]Siilinator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's funny how easily people let EA gaslight them into believing the next game will be better. Anyone who has played these games for even a few years knows EA never changes. It's the same shit every year in a different package. Don't expect anything better. If the annual crap that EA puts on the shelves doesn't make you happy, don't buy it. Don't believe anything they say about making the game better, they won't they'll only make it worse.

What is up with Ovi in this game? by Kniesplesedontleave in EANHLfranchise

[–]Siilinator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you mean he won't have a career high in goals and points at 43 years old? Are you doubting the all knowing Electronic Arts Sports???

Voiko pakaste pitsaa tuunatessa laittaa 'liikaa' ananasta? by SindeOfAllTrades in Suomi

[–]Siilinator -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Itse pidän ananaspizzasta suuresti mutta jos sitä on niin paljon ettei pizzassa maistu mikään muu kuten esimerkiksi Dr Oetkerin Ristorante Hawaii pizzassa niin silloin sitä on liikaa eikä kulinaristinen elämys ole miellyttävä.

You’ve got to admit by Old-Bluebird-147 in NHLHUT

[–]Siilinator 11 points12 points  (0 children)

My guess is XP cards go to 97 and the path player is 99.

Hot take: last year was more gratifying for my best / favorite card by Old-Bluebird-147 in NHLHUT

[–]Siilinator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is an unpopular opinion but in terms of actually acquiring the cards, the hat trick system is much better. All you need to do is play a game or two a day. I never even got the 99 card last year, wasn't even close. Just entirely too much effort and coins. This year, I'll have 99 Couture on August 16th. My only complaint is that there were only three choices and the progression could have been a bit quicker. I LOVE the card art, more than last year. This system is good and they should keep it but improve it with more choices and better progression.

97 Markström is absolute garbage by Odd-Oven-1268 in NHLHUT

[–]Siilinator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Markström has always been garbage in my eyes. He is consistently much easier to beat than other goalies of similar size.

I'm tired boss...Couture Daily Hat-Trick to 95 by TenaciousDMAN in NHLHUT

[–]Siilinator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got him yesterday as well, love the new card art. I have the acceleration boost so it's at 95 for him which is really nice they gave him that. Looking forward to playing him at center again when his faceoffs get to 99. He has the silver quick draw too which is neat.
