    I know this might be a conversation better suited for a few months from now, but I’ve thought for a while now that there should be more rarities of cards. I wasn’t a big fan of the decision to change the scale a few years back to 85-99 being diamond, but I understand the logic behind it. The way diamond dynasty is currently, I really think there’s a need to differentiate the classes of cards better. Currently, bronze, silver, and gold all span 5 overall points.(70-74, 75-79. 80-84) Diamond spans 15(85-99). In my opinion, an 85 and a 99 aren’t close to the same class of card, and I would love a system that differentiates between them. The introduction of prestige diamonds to me gives an opportunity to create at least 1(if not 2) new classes of diamonds. Call them ruby, emerald, or just different color diamonds. I’d love to see 90-94 and 95-99 differentiated with their own classes above just a regular diamond being 85-89. Again, obviously this isn’t extremely important and I understand the game has bigger problems, but I think it could be a nice concept to build around next year. Thoughts?

    Eh, personally it doesn't really matter to me. As far as pack odds go, I think the higher rated diamonds are already harder to pull (e.g. prospect packs), so it would really just be a cosmetic thing. I wouldn't mind either way, but I'll say no because that's what 2K does, and 2K is absolute garbage

    I suggested that replacing the 85-89 range as something like Platinum or Emerald, and got a lot of negative posts 'round these parts

    Well, I’m on your side. I understand they want the best live series players to be diamond, but that’s why I would suggest leaving that as diamond and having the signature series, etc as something different. An 85 Jose Ramirez and a 99 Mickey Mantle are nowhere near the same level card.

    I agree it would be cosmetic, pack odds could certainly play into it. I wouldn’t mind more transparency regarding the odds in a pack.

    Me too. I know the higher diamonds are higher because they have higher numbers. Lol.

    When they first teased the prestige diamonds, I thought it was going to be another tier to separate the 85’s from the 99’s.

    It seems to just be a way to show off that you’ve done the evo work.

    If you added a new rarity, then you would be more likely to get them in packs, since it would likely be 85-89
