Finally going back to H2H after playing only Mutmas mode last 2 weeks

Glad yer enjoy that MUTmas Draft, but i invest so much time, effort and resources into building out my squad, that i want to use the players i'm tinkering with and playing virtual GM -- not a bunch of 80 OVRs and constantly trying to sub my WRs in at cornerback.  But surely that game mode has been ridiculously profitable for you, eh?  I choked out pretty hard, got a decent draft, won my first game... then second game i was never able to touch the ball in the second half.  Dude just clocked me, 3rd and 4th quarters and I couldn't shut it down.  That was the end of my brief time with MUT.  I was going to circle back and try to get 5 wins for the ZC Field Pass, but i think it's already max, so don't need it.

Each player has the same level team, when minimal DDA or ELO...so its probably the truest form of pure competition

.

If someone clocks you...adjust...get a user with secure tackler and undershade on passing routes

.

The payouts are nice, i now get a flawless run about 2 or every 3 tries...and still getting nice prizes...just got another Winter Hero Josh ALlen

So i bought redux Daniels and i'm trying him out. So far, his release isn't bad and he's hitting all the passes. No overthrows yet. His release isn't bad like i said but i feel like there are better releases out there without Gunslinger, i just need to find them. Allen is a bit too pricey for me right now, i spent a lot of coins for snow upgrades and stuff. I'm a 92 and my team is pretty decent so i'm just holding my coins. I'm gonna keep using Daniels and i'll see what happens. I was looking at Baker but i'm not sure how the release is.

I just tried to tell you that Baker has possibly the 2nd best release in the game, behind only Josh Allen. These releases are SO quick, especially with Gunslinger, that it can take a little bit of time to adjust. Once you begin to throw perfect "blue" releases with nearly every down, the overthrow issue becomes slightly less of a concern.... but definitely still exists. 

My advice would be to dig into your Binder, drop 2AP Gunslinger on that Penix Jr. card and try to get the timing down in practice mode. Once you've mastered that, go use 5k Snow on a BND Baker.

My attempted list above was from best to worst, you're at least closing in on potential top 3 releases. They're less of a big deal than in prior years.

I'm trying no Gunslinger and so far, not a single overthrown pass. Daniels has been lighting it up for me so far

I'm not convinced DDA actually exists. EA has not demonstrated any ability to pull off a consistent, well-working system for literally ANY aspect of the game. Not simple pass catching, on either side of the ball.... but we're supposed to think they've developed and implemented a competitive system that is constantly adjusting difficulty? 

The broken, buggy ass inconsistent mess of a game is just bad and broken and buggy. That's not the same as DDA, but I can understand how or why many might think that way. 

Pay to win game mechanics have absolutely no place in any online H2H competitive games, you're 💯 % correct about that.

Maybe its just me, but I definitely notice different gameplay in Champs mode vs Mutmas Draft/Regular H2H
