Option to Change Player Schemes for Mid-Game Cycle

I believe for the mid-game (post December) EA should make all future LTD's available to select any scheme like they do the Ranked Top 100 cards and all Champion cards to have the option to select 1 of 3 schemes (like Blue Chip LTD's). It'll make player releases more fair as we get to the 2nd half of the game so scheme teams stop getting burned by player droughts.

I wish they would oversaturate the catalog rather than undersaturate it. That would encourage players to try more schemes and buy and hold more players.

Absurd takes. 

Flooding the market with scheme options would make scheme teams too good, forcing everyone to have them to be competitive. 

And suggesting people holding on to players...that would kill the AH and inflate the price of players. 

Both ideas are "pay to win" friendly ideas.

Holding on to players alone, yes that would raise prices. But having more players and more options available would lower prices. Having more players would encourage more transactions and more sales as players try new schemes.

It's like interest rates. The lower the rate, the more people can, and will borrow. The higher the rate, the less people borrow. That said a better comparison and solution would probably be lowering the 10% AH fee. Drop it to 5% to encourage more sales.

I think i misunderstood the "over saturate" portion of your post. You want to make sure supply out weighs demand. I agree that would be ideal for consumers, but it seems like that would be in conflict to EAs wants. 

While I would love to have access to every player, I think a balance is realistic when considering a company pursuing profits. 

I have long been a supporter of a subscription model. Pay around $15/months and have access to all players. Get rid of DDA but put a bit more effort into match making. Proper match making should be able to get 95% of people in a 30-70% win/loss rate without outside influences forcing stupid results, which should satisfy the masses.

I agree completely. I went to MUT.GG I haven't played MUT since CUT started last year I can't sustain both and be good. The point was to check out their last 2 promo drops 4 LTDs and 6 champion cards they have more players on MUT it's well established which is why they get more stuff but the NFL has 32 teams and 53 man active rosters. FBS has 134 teams and bigger rosters we should be at the very least matching them in the amount of cards we get per drop. We are getting less than half of MUTs cards when we should be able to sustain double what they get. 11,000+ players accepted the NIL opt in for the game out of 14,000+ offered, but The NFL has 1,696 active players at any given time. We need more players per drop and more teams getting love and I think the game would become much more popular. I don't think EA with commit the resources to do that unless CUT takes off first which is sad because one would likely cause the other while the lack of in number cards and lack of different cards instead of repeat cards one reason people have deserted CUT.

they should do scheme cards like FUT. Get them in packs and then can sell them to be able to change schemes. Works for them
