Players Should Be Able To Equip All Scheme Chems: Change My Mind

I won 3 nattys in the first week because I had scheme team + TT boosts. Problem is I went with Multiple O and we have only got 3 cards in 8 drops. With the best card being an 84 LT. 

At the very least they need to make it 20/25 so when my 83 qb isn’t good enough to hit a pass anymore I can use a half decent qb and not lose the +2 speed for my receivers.

Scheme is part of game planning. If we’re just gonna give out scheme boosts regardless of player type that 1) takes the college football aspect out of it and 2) is pointless to put scheme’s on the card to begin with lol

Wrong, the whole point of “scheme team” is the boosts. I’m just saying if they’re gonna completely ignore an entire scheme team every single drop (multiple O has received 3 cards and they’re all offensive line). Then they need to make it 20/20 not 25/25 that way I can sub a qb and a RB in without losing the boost on my receivers. Because my best option at qb is 83 Jennings and the best RB is an 82

you'll get drops throughout the year. it's 2 weeks in. 

That's like in MUT saying "man, we don't have any Jets, how can I run a theme team" after week 2. Be patient.

Multiple O here, because OrSt is the hottest playbook. We have 0 FBs, which means 0 variety. I pulled SIngleton BND and he takes 1 speed from my entire O now. If we had 1 FB we could use a none chem guy. Multiple O has no abilities either currently, besides a tackle.

We’ve got 8 drops in 2 weeks though… and that’s not a good comparison. There 32 nfl teams and 5 scheme teams, I’ve had to play 2 weeks with no qb/rb/wr upgrade. The boosts that made things even with the god squads are gone, and since the requirement is 25/25 there is little wiggle room and now way to use a different qb.

You want to max out every position in 2 weeks? Or you want longevity so the game can last until March/April/May? I promise they'll be plenty of options as the game progresses. Content is a PLENTY - and if they stick with this pace, we're going to have so many cards, everyone will be able to choose their own route.

The entire point of a scheme team is that you have to use players that match the playbook you use, and for that, you get a speed boost, but you sacrifice the ability to use any card you want. If every player in the game can get any scheme chem, then they might as well just get rid of scheme teams altogether. Also, EA isn't making you use a scheme team; if you have access to cards that are better than the players on your scheme team, then use them and get rid of the scheme team.
