Are Crystals worth it?

I just got a bunch of coins (2.9mil)and run a 50/50 Seahawks TT and was wondering if it’s worth it to spend 2.5 mil on Pat surtain, Barkley, parsons. For that extra speed boost

I would recommend that you keep building up your coinstack, and look for an opportunity to buy all three while still leaving you 2m coins in the bank. Or at least 1m. The Crystals will help keep yesterday’s players usable, but also give you an edge on your top players; if you can’t afford any of the top players after getting the Release One Crystals, what’s the point?

I would argue the other side of that. Speed is king in the game and the crystals will help make the lesser theme team players stay more relevant. I have a god squad but still rocking some season 1 players just because of how good they are with the boosts. I wouldn’t buy them during the weekend though. Wait till the next drop of most feared. Typically everything is cheaper during the week.

In short, yes they are worth it.  With so many good free cards this year that get all 32 chems you can basically run a god squad with just the crystals and BNDs.

Just for clarity, his math suggested he could buy the trio right now, but he would have 400k coins left. His timing suggests he isn’t otherwise fielding a highly competitive Head-to-Head lineup. It sounds like we agree that today isn’t the best timing, but for different reasons.

I would treat today as a MUT Menus day. Then either way you’d be ready to buy later this week.

I have all except Gibbs cu  beastmode is cheaper n it helps so much. Also shapeshifters are godly

I'm on the fence with this too. I currently have a 88 ovr 50/50 Chargers TT with 4M coins in the bank. Debating whether it makes sense to spend over half of that on a +1 speed boost. Because, at the end of the day, can a +1 difference in speed even be noticeable? 

I'm also kinda worried that EA will release x2 crystals or +2 speed crystals or something like that which would crash the value of Barkley, Surtain, Parsons
