Ghosts are better than the 95 Team Diamonds cards due to the motivator boosts, 2 zero AP ability buckets
Any other card that comes out cant compete...Legends get 1 discount AP bucket - no zero AP and no motivator boosts
Football Family cards - same thing
Even Monday Mixup and Frozen Chill cards...Ghosts overpower them...due to the motivator and 2 zero AP bucket.
.
It looks like a full ghost squad is the way to go until Jan 9th (likely the start of playoffs promo)
ghosts have always been the best cards every ZC promo so nothing really groundbreaking
The ghost team was used even up till feb/march last year

Yes, but they were never this dominant
This is like Combine theme team last year level dominant

You’re not wrong, but to the OP’s point, there’s never been a year where ZC/GOM cards got the equivalent of a 3 OVR boost when played together. With my Packers theme team, I have three players (Jaire, Reggie, and Tavon) plus 4 OVR. It’s essentially made any other cards irrelevant. That’s why (I think) EA pivoted and includes the Legends in the boosts at the last minute b/c there was literally no reason to buy them. And all of this is before the 0 AP buckets.
The only question is whether this is the new normal. We’ll see with the ”Road to NOLA“ promo up next.
When all their super powers wear off on 1/9 though, things could be different.

I agree, Eagles theme team is unbelievable with +4 speed
Julio - 99 Speed
Swift - 98 Speed
Vick - 99 Speed
Cooper - 99
Kearse - 97
Perry - 99
This always happens. Nothing new

Never by this amount though
Like these cards play 4-5 above their true overall

Playoff and Superbowls cards will likely be STACKED also... to make Ghosts irrevelevant
EA wants people to keep buying new cards
The smart move is to dump all ZC/GOM content right now. Alas, I am not smart 😀

You've got to always be the most rude person in this group. Do you just troll posts and like to be a karen? And as stated from other players... this year the boosts are more then previous years. So take ur negativity somewhere else.

I am not sure if I got that much use out of mine last year.
I recall that what ever stat is nerfed became an annoying reality after a few weeks.
One example as a reminder would be Dri Archer. He was great, until he started fumbling ALL of the time!

Uh, i wasn't being rude? He responded to me and there isn't an issue. Do me a favor, leave me hell alone. Stop trying to start trouble because you're too young to have a heated conversation without freaking out. When the adults are talking, stay quiet.
