Grinke Promo is a big coin sink

That’s not what he’s saying at all, Hes saying to use cam for the upgrades so you still get value back. Not to replace anyone

I swear theres a loser meat rider on every post that needs to tell people unsolicited that Sapp or Karlaftis is “better than X player”. When in reality nobody asked and the OP never said whether they had Sapp/GK already. They are probably the same people that complain about this game turning into P2W and pre lit x factors

The fact you even need to do this is a joke and it shouldn't be that way. I hope EA hears our feedback and gets rid of it because it's making a game that's already bad much much worse.

Ah. Understand now. I misunderstood the original point. 

550k is tough but yeah at least it's a 200k upgrade.

Yeah it's total BS. I did the first champion upgrade for Havenstien then realized he needed another 96. Hell Naw!!

Can't wait to put 5 99 OVRs into Golden Tickets to get discounted abilities and free always-on X-Factors

This new thing where you need to add multiple champions to upgrade cards is a disaster. It's like EA tries to annoy the shit out of their customers as much as they can. They destroyed MUT and unless you have 20 million coins, you can't use the best cards. They just keep finding ways to ruin the game even more.

Yup. They really are determined to do this. I said it earlier in the year when they started making all their "free" cards with each promo not actually free. Lol and no one else seemed to care. Hell even the promo that basically required buying a whole new team to even participate jn the "event" (because of lineup restrictions) again no one cared. Then they started making promo TT the only way to truly compete (which again basically requires buying a whole new team every promo)

Now this. This is the game, and they arent going to change their minds. The beatings will continue until morale improves, basically. 

They dont even PRETEND to care anymore. Simply stunning.

Yep, it fucking sucks and the only reason i'm still playing is because i'm already invested this year

Yeah but you only get one high upgrade card & each card has 3 level upgrades… 

if you want the Ltd Derwin James, it’s 1.5 mil for his card & another 1.5 mil in cards to upgrade him to the final level to get mid zone KO for 0. Even if you use the upgrade token and the BND card, it’s still 500k + the cost of the card. It’s just a different version of power ups

People keep saying that there's only one "high" (Elevated?) upgrade card, but seems i'm confused on this setup.  I was able to apply my Elevated 1? ("Low") token to big Rob Havenstein to unlock his first 0AP bucket (for Secure Protector).  I ultimately ended up using the 96 BND as well as a final 96 to get to the 0AP Linchpin bucket, as well... hardly worth it, but that 0AP SP is fire.

Anyway, got into a discussion with someone in comments section recently, they tried calling me out for suggesting we could apply that "Low" Elevated token to achieve upgrade.  I didn't want to rip out the upgrades in case something was technically "wrong" here or buggy/glitchy and lose the ability to continue using a fully upgraded Right Tackle.

Releasing cards with insane ability discounts, but requiring 3 96+ cards to get those same discounts... LTD Derwin gets flat zone and mid zone KO for 0 AP, but you have to buy him for 1.7 mil and then put another 1 mil into him to get the discounts. Lol. No one should be buying these

Just wait until they release a new QB with insane abilities that cost 3 mill just to buy.

I was just explaining what he meant, I  completely agree I haven’t upgraded anyone like that all year yet except I got lucky and pulled a bnd 95 mvs from that one twitch pack. So I’ve thrown him in howley and mccaffery to see how much better they were and it’s just absurd to me to lose a 95 just to upgrade someone so I’ll wait till theyre so cheap it doesn’t matter To try out all the way, but by then im sure they’ll be outdated. I don’t like the trend tho, like okay one maybe, but 3 96s just for free abilities? I don’t even have 96s all over the field let alone to upgrade anyone
