Crystal Scam?

Given the Crystal boosts that MUTleaks has shown, I'm wondering if each batch of Crystal cards is their own separate group. So you need all 3 from the same group to get the boosts, but no one will know until they release them

they are, we already know this

Yeah..didn't think about that part...lol...I hope they dont make you have to make a choice, cause I really like using saquan cards...maybe you can use 1 of the new ones as a third to keep original boosts..doubt it...wish we knew cause if I could sell off saquan and get a new one tomm for cheaper to keep original boosts and get the new saquan card

new crystals have different chems than the first batch

they can do one of three things here…

1) give the new saqoun card crystal boosts

2) give the new saqoun card an upgrade path requiring you to insert crystal variant

3) do no boosts for the new card and make you pick which one you’d rather use

No way they would give him the crystal boost. Everyone would have his new champion card then.  It's gonna be pick which one u want.

they’ve done it before with AKA boosts etc, crystal is much different and i highly doubt they do. I just listed the options, not guarantees

I really wish his new card got the boosts!! It sucks bc why would we want to use his 85 when his new one is gonna be much better.

Did not know that...appreciate the heads up

Hoping for option 2.  But I can see them doing #3 to help push new crystals as well

I think letting us put the crystal inside the new one would be best route fir all!

This game has to be a fckng joke. I just spent HOURS grinding to finish some stuff before the week times out. And I pause the game to make myself a coffee and the whole thing freezes (the run) vs the cpu I waited for about 15-20 min to see if it would unfreeze it did not. Eventually I had to quit and when I logged back in of course I took the L this wouldn’t be the worst thing but this ALREADY HAPPENED TO ME THIS WEEK. So with 2 losses I now have to completely restart. Not to my error not because I took to much time away from the game. No I paused the game for maybe 5 seconds to respond to my GF. I know nothing is going to be done about this because of the scummy company that this is. But it’s is INFURIATING to spend time and effort doing something only for it to be taken away due to an error by the large company that won’t ever be compensated. So with this I hate you ea and I hope your monopoly over football games somehow come to an end so we can finally get some enjoyable and pro it’s consumer base

i mean i sold my saquon today. I’m running the risk of options 1 or 2 from my comment, if I’m wrong i’ll just buy him back. if I’m right on option 1, save myself a lot of coins

Be safe out there man. If the Crystal Barkley tanks in price, you run the risk of the auto system flagging your sale and catching a ban. Heard of several users that have had this happen. Really dumb that we have to worry about this kind fo thing, but it is certainly a risk.

I'm just wondering if they will be in the season token exchange like the 1st ones were...if they are today is probably best day to cash in for a chance

I think there is an almost 0 chance the new card has baked in crystal ability.  I think it is 90% likely the new card has no crystal boost attainable and 10% chance of it being an upgrade path to insert the crystal saquon.  i think the reason for it being unlikely is that the crystal upgrade would also come with any team chem and i don't think they want to start doing that.

if the new saquon has any team chem and crystal as an upgrade, it will be an insanely high priced card and will drive up 86s to insane #s.

I 100% agree here. 

It wouldnt be the first time they did it though but whatever makes the most money which would be making the new cards they get step ups so if you want to use it with the boosts you have to use the previous.

I have been playing madden since their first issue! I started playing in 2010, and the in game store sold points, and has specials since 2010,

the only thing I see that has changed is EA don't let us trade cards! The Madden community seems ok with it because nothing happened, all people do is complain scam! Come to think of it, it wasn't to long ago people were scamming people thru the AH via the trade option.

What I'm asking is! What make this year a scam or money grab, since all Mut issues essentially follow the same format.
