I’m in the minority here…

But I like the AP decrease… 🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️ played a guy the other day that ONLY ran the ball and had Big Dog Vanguard and both X-Factor backs with NS and SP on all linemen. Thats gone. Played a hundred guys who run Gun Tight with 3-4 ability WRs and STILL have the X-Factor backs. Not to mention KOs completely bailing people out. That’s gonna be gone. Maybe pass rush will ACTUALLY exist now since people have to use their AP strategically. Never understood why people wanted it raised… that would just kill the game even more (more than it already is). Just gotta use a bit more strategy.

Except we’ve built our teams around 12 abilities and now have to rebuild near the end of the season. It’s a cash grab or the result of the coin glitches and the player base is paying.

You realize that content from here on out will have a boat load of 0 ap abilities right? Gts gonna have two, so i doubt much will change, besides cards with 0 ap abilities skyrocketing in price, i am glad aka cards got nerfed harc, but the gts that come will take their place

I don't think we'll see a major uptick in pass rush when It's possible to give the entire oline 0 ap secure protector which is the main thing limiting the pass rush abilities.

Yeah but they won’t have activated X-Factors. That’s the reason the AKA cards are so OP. And if on the reverse side, it completely drops prices of cards that only get 1 0 AP ability, then I’m with that. And I hate EA as much as you guys do so I’m not defending them. Abilities have been my biggest complaint this whole year.

GTS might get x factors that start on, UL Wills got one, so EA is not unwilling to give thise x factors to non aka cards

All cards that get a 0 ap ability will go up in price, and not by a small amount, roh moss gonna be expensive asf now, glad i got him when i did

Your team is the exact same… just gotta reallocate the abilities. Maybe people will actually use the other 0 AP abilities other than PA.

i agree with most of the points but i wish play action was better.  i guess i will run out there and see. i'll come back to this thread.

I like the concept but don't like the motives. As other people have pointed out, this looks to be a cash grab, forcing people to rebuild their teams late in the year and creating demand for double 0 AP buckets. I would not be surprised if EA starts dropping regular double 0 AP buckets in new promos and GTs, along with lots of store offers which require actual money for them.

Well we will have to wait and see. With the abundance of coins out there, it won’t be hard for people to get GTs

True we will just have to see. I might come back to this thread and say I hate the idea after losing 4 games in a row lol

Lol. Thankfully I've invested into the 0 AP SP linemen, so I can maintain a somewhat competitive team. Also got Lawrence Taylor, Ryan Neal, and Patrick Willis on defense.
