They re-released a Best Of collection today. So I guess pack weight will be even more watered down for tomorrow.

My dupe storage and transfer list is full so I stopped opening packs for a bit but I haven't packed anything good other than Gyokeres TS (looks decent tbf) and Lacazette (goes for 75k for now). I packed Malik Tillman 3 times already.

I got boned on the re-release. I bought that Reijnders for 240k. He went up to mid-300s. He's now 40k on the verge of getting a double upgrade. This is why I hate buying cards.

 

[Striiker]

@FLYguy3911 you ever beat someone so bad…

He sent that after he went down 0-2 in the first ~30 seconds.

He did try booting me too. Kept freezing for a good 3 full seconds at a time.

Still won.

Yeah, mine are both full too.

Opened everything and got Tillman x2, Guehi, Undav, Icardi x2, and some Best Of cards. Did Sane’s SBC to make room. Sad day.

Gyokeres is nasty… if you can get him any chem. Great supersub at least.

And yeah, buying cards is dangerous. I bought TS Reiten (who is incredible) for 250k and sold her the next day for 199k because I saw her price was plummeting. She’s now 140k.

Clutched 9 wins in the 122nd minute of my last game (I said I was going to stop at 4 wins again and didn’t lol).

You know what you are doing with your tokens yet? Some of these 85x30s look awful. The 88+ icon pick looks good from what I’ve seen but with two playstyle pluses now, I don’t know how much long base icons are going to be relevant.

I already did the 85x30 and 85x20. No good WW’s, but TONS of good fodder.

I actually just did the 85x20 last night before I got off and got Flashback Davies, Centurion Modric, four 89 golds, and 8 88 golds. So obviously that’s no Haaland but still incredible value. Also did the Icon SBC twice and got complete dogshit, Foudy and Riquelme, which is why I had zero faith in the icon pick for tokens. Plus, yeah, like you said 99% of the base icons are already underpowered.

My 85x30 was asssss. Got Scholes and the rest was all fodder.

No streamer luck for you.

Luckily they seem to have improved Champs rewards, so hopefully that won’t be a waste of time anymore.

Edit: holy shit, it turns out I was lied to. TACTICAL defending is what you want, not advanced. That explains so much.

anyone play Old World? looking for a Civ like

 

[Surrounded By Ahos]

I picked up Dredge in the Steam sale and I did not expect to enjoy it this much. It's a fishing game, but they've added enough extra stuff to keep things interesting. Things get weird when you go out at night, and there's a mysterious dude on an island sending you around to search for random stuff for an unknown purpose, and he gives you unnatural powers as a reward. Not a bad pickup for $13.

For the contain?

I am so bad defensively it’s not even funny.

Because it makes tackling way easier, apparently.

Does the pace pick up at some point in RDR2? I’m in Chapter Two and I’m out of my mind with boredom. Might be the best looking game I’ve ever seen but man…it’s so slow going.

Maybe? But probably not. I had to be in the right headspace to play that game, but when I was in that headspace, the game was awesome. Just cruising around leisurely and checking out as much as possible. It was visually stunning like you said, which helped keep me interested.
