BR program unsellable too. Thanks streamers

I can definitely see both sides of this argument. But I'm completely ok with them doing this.
A couple years ago I never would've been able to use the WS or BR cards because I'm not good enough to make WS or go 12-0. And I wouldn't be able to buy them because I'd never have enough stubs. So I'm cool with being able to get 1 even I can't sell it. And if I'm not interested in any of the rewards I just won't play.
The amount of people who just seem to play video games for the rewards blows my mind. If you're doing it that way you're doing it wrong.

I'm actually LESS likely to buy stubs this way. I know I won't get every card, but I aim to collect all the Oakland A's. If they put one in BR and it's too difficult I'd consider buying stubs to purchase it. Now there's no reason to if/when that happens.

I have no intention of touching ranked because of this change, now I just might not touch BR either. BR program requirements should be lowered by 75% if it's going to be no sell. The changes to drive people to buy stubs and cater to 1% like these no-sell packs are really souring me on this game.
Every time I say they are going the route of EA sports I get ripped to shreds but looks like I was right after all.

Well that's enough for me. Finish this year and call it a day. Every year they have cut ways to make stubs. Shat on my favorite player two years running (Mays) and put Godzilla in the game. How much more stupid can it get. I'm old anyway and should be done playing video games.
OK. I am not playing this year's game. Who is the player named godzilla?

They have a monster program that came out on Friday. The cards for big league players have a monster theme and then there are special ballparks for moments and showdown that feature the monsters.

OK. I remember something similar in Madden many years ago where you could draft a team and play in a league against fake CPU teams. Each team had a "special" skill and a weakness that could be exploited. One team was called the monsters and their "special" skill was that if you tackled their QB it was an automatic "roughing the passer", so you had to be good at controlling the MLB or CB against that team to win, because their line would let blitzers in on purpose to get the free penalty.

This is basically exactly how I feel. I would have never been able to get these cards up until a couple years ago, so I don't really mind that they aren't sellable. I only really grind out a program if its a card I want to use anyway.

I actually think they are going the way of EA as well, unfortunately. I just don't understand why they choose this path. 2 flawless packs ( 1 program+12-0 pack ) plus a 90+ which sells for 100-150k stubs isn't enough for their fragile egos. No, let's take away from the avg and casual players as well and make sure that 1% know they are extra special. If they wanted to make sure the 12-0 was worth it, then why not add the 99 chase pack rewards to the 90+ possible pool of cards? Simple solution that doesn't punish or take away from anyone.

I love the BR program this year. Someone explain to me why no sell benefits streamers? I’m genuinely asking…

People are saying that some, or one, if the streamers complained that they couldn't get a ton of stubs for the card they got doe going 12-0 because it dropped in cost because casuals were able to obtain it just by playing and getting points towards the program.

Eh I’m pretty happy with the change, didn’t see a need for BR to be unsellable but I’ll get over it

Stands to reason if casuals have no incentive to play BR then hardcore 12-0 chasers are going to find out that some of them aren't as good as they thought they were. The grind is about to get tougher for them now.

Probably not because a lot of high flawless guys boost BR

Designing a reward structure that only benefits less than 1% of your customers is a terrible strategy.
But hey, at least they won’t have to hear oh chev cry anymore.
Oh that’s his name. Yea that guy needs to go outside. I listened to him cry about it for an hour straight one day and was like why am I listening to this dude whine.
Guys, you need to either stop repeating lies or relax. He never wanted BR rewards to be no sell, just the program ws.
Besides that:
I will never go 12-0. I can get one WS and one BR reward by just playing the programs. That is fine. I can buy the other 2 on the programs a few weeks later, because there are lots of „not so clever“ people who sell everything off, when the big program ends.Other than that: There are so many good cards and ways to have awesome teams, enjoy them until you get new ones
I do not get the rage you people have
EDIT: Making the non-sellable is also a good way of making those rewards real rewards for achieving something. Gehrig was one time under 25K, while some rare round guys almost always went over 100K, because those packs were to expensive.

If people stopped watching streamers their power would diminish. I guess it's just a generational thing but I cannot imagine my fifteen year old self watching a video of a guy playing a Sonic the Hedgehog 3. Even if he is better than I am.
Parts Unknown Tummy sticks is really the only one worth watching anymore. (Avoiding names because SDS).

I always find it funny when people take up for guys that have no idea or care who you are lol

What if they made the cards from unsellable packs sellable once the new br/ws program comes out? that way the stubs cant be farmed but the cards can be sold later when new content comes out?
