<p>I did the 96 BND last week (Havenstein) and it was a full fantasy pack w/ all to choose from.</p> <p>I ended up w/ enough for the 96 BND, rolled 15 89+s when Derwin was in packs, and have enough again for the 96 auctionable one.  I won prolly 300ish or so…</p>

<p>I am waiting until tomorrow to get the last token, but planned on deep out, midzone and pick artist. <br />  </p> <p>I run primarily cover 3/4 and he’s either in a deep blue or hook zone in my scheme</p>

<p>I did it 10 times just in case anyone was curious.</p> <p>4 93s, 6 89s. Not great, but not horrible.</p>

i've maxed the store out and now have 0 stars... thought about grinding more House Rules to roll some of these, but been playing SB Coin Run instead.

<p>SB run was mad fun/easy coins but even I got burnt out on it and I play those short types of promo modes like a complete no-life. Maybe I’ll try and play it again. I haven’t since it was supposed to leave. <br />  </p> <p>I saved all my QS until the end and wou…</p>

What is ELO

I normally win about 55-60% of my Champ mode games - pretty much all against equal overall teams

<p><a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elo_rating_system#:~:text=The%20Elo%20rating%20system%20is,of%20the%20Elo%20rating%20system">https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elo<em>rating</em>system#:~:text=The%20Elo%20rating%20system%20is,of%20the%20Elo%20rating%20system</a><br />  </p> <p>In a perfect world you would only win about 50% of your games if ELO was a perfect metric for matching you with an opponent.</p>

If Derwin is all you want go for it but someone could drop Thursday that might make you regret it. Especially if you don’t pull the god Derwin card

<p>You are a man of reason I respect it thanks.</p>

<p>EA uses ELO matchmaking. It had zero to do with your teams OVR</p> <p>WL/champs starts out kinda random, but the more you get into your 25 games the closer theyll match you to similar skilled opponents.</p>

Wait for Thursday

<p>To roll the 89+?</p> <p>To my knowledge Derwin will be out of packs then (which is why I’m tempted on this roll)</p>

<p>I’m thinking of doing something dumb and rolling this 10+ times</p> <p>I have almost 1800 star points that I was saving for the 96 auctionable on Thurs. I have already done the NAT 96 last week (Havenstein)</p> <p>If you pull min it’s about a 350k loss, but Ive…</p>

<p>Im a run first guy, so these aren't my cup of tea either, but they can still go pretty quick.</p> <p>It feels like it plays like a juiced arcade mode which im not a giant fan of, but it's different and I appreciate when EA does try to mix up the mundane i…</p>

I'll be voting for Lamar just in the hopes that they actually give him a card with abilities that aren't complete garbage.

<p>I am a giant JA17 homer and I am doing the same. <br />  </p> <p>I’ve been saving coins and excited for MVP Lamar for what seems like 2 months and the card is unuseable. Hoping he can win TOTY and get a good Lamar that way.</p>

<p>I went ahead and took Havenstein. The free secure protector and possible free linchpin are too good to pass up. Would have bought him if there wasn’t a NAT option. <br />  </p> <p>And I got mine w/ enough House Rules wins. Hoping to get enough to get the auctio…</p>
