Weekend Classic Rewards are a joke

@ckernan78_XBL exactly. I lucked my way in to WS I am a legit 600 level player…and I’m in Gold 2 and facing the most ridiculous players ever. I HATE the concept of weekend Classic
Well to be honest you literally just said you lucked your way into the gold 2 division, which is 800-899 WS divison. I do agree there is a real problem with boosting in WC. People who are legend tanking thier record the week of WC so they dont have to play sweaty games, over all the last 2 WC I have finished 4-2 in Gold 2 and feel like beside 1 game that the guy had a 1000 rating banner and obviously either tanked his record or didn't play this season i feel like my competition in right at my level.
I do slightly agree that the "rewards" have went down. 50 standards for 1 win in WC season 1 and only 25 since. The WC packs themselves have been good cards for people who don't have any collections.
How SDS can manage to keep players in the highest level they "should" be playing at (legend and GOAT people not intentionally playing down to just scoop 6-0 win rewards) I'm not sure.

@trfatboy22_PSN I rarely comment on here and it's always nice to be reminded why. Instead of being able to have a conversation that I foolishly think SDS might see and actually take into consideration, posts are consistently hijacked by low IQ trolls who would rather hear the sound of their own fingers typing something pointless than actual contribute anything worthwhile
With all do respect he's not wrong. You said the highest level of ranked. It's not anymore legend and goat are above simply making WS. He's also not wrong that if you want better rewards then play higher into 900-999 or even 1000 if you are that good (I'm not i struggle going more then 4-2 on HOF). But the people who can compete on legend and goat should get better rewards. Then complaining that the 4 85+ packs gave you 4 free 85 overall players and nothing more is like complaining a restaurant only brought the food you ordered and nothing more. Agian though you do have the right to complain, but when you complain and make false claims it looks bad.

@Rhyno1986_XBL dont waste your breath with him. He's a liar and constantly bashing the game and everyone who is better than him at it. Meaning literally everyone.

I said the same thing. I dont have a doubt in my skill. However my highest pitcher is Pedro. Second highest is Dustin may. I work and have children. I refuse to sit and grind and work the marketplace. So I got a bare minimum team. While my opponents have 99s like wtf. Its not worth the headache.

You would have played 800 guys too, if there wasn‘t a weekend-classic (ok, at least 1 game) … I face the same skill level starting at 700-899, so what is the real difference? You play on HOF starting 700

Just finished my 6 weekend classic games in Gold II, a division you have to make the HIGHEST level of ranked seasons to be in, and managed to go 6-0. My reward for being PERFECT??? A chase pack with a LS Yordan Alvarez and 4 "LS 85+" packs with Hunter Brown, Hunter Greene, Yamamoto, and Steven Kwan.
So for going 6-0 in one of the highest weekend classic divisions, I got 5 Live Series cards all rated 86 OVR or lower.
I'd literally rather get ONE 88+ pack for going 6-0 than get 4 85+ packs that only had a 1:16 chance of being 88 or higher.
What an absolute joke SDS
First: Gold II is not the highest level of ranked season. It is 800-899. You still have legend and GOAT, which is the highest… and you got 2 weekend-classic-packs (worth 50K prox) … and stubs. I am in Gold II too, I liked my rewards and I am looking forward to my pack opening

@Rhyno1986_XBL Facts. The rewards being incrementally lowered is B.S.
I love the concept, but if you get 5 or 6 WC wins at World Series level divisions, they need to chill with the RNG based rewards imo.

@YOSHI24_XBL I misspoke, I am gold one, had played only 2 games in ranked over 700 before the Weekend classic, and was at 720. I faced 4 guys out of 6 with World Series badges. I won the 2 with guys ranked similarly to me. Instant opponent found games so it wasn't like I was waiting and just happened to get matched up with guys well above my skill level. Definitely more of a casual player, and prefer to play on HOF difficulty, hate all star, but I suppose I should shoot for silver 2 next time, where I went 5-1 last Weekend classic, and only faced one WS badge.

ok, I still do not get it … You said „Highest level of ranked“, which is still not true. You then just reached Hall-of-Fame, when you got to 700+ … and you like Hall-of-Fame …
If you shoot for silver, you play All-Star.
And now back to your initial post. What was the problem again with the rewards?
Regarding the ws badges. Yes, they have it, but they are not far away from where you are at. That could mean that they made ws in the first iteration and just never since. But they are beatable for Hall-of-Fame-players (Trust me, I have the badge

I went 5-1 and pulled nothing of value.
The "then dont play" lol. Yeah let's just keep playing the same game over & over each year. Id play a different game if another company made a baseball game.
Maybe mlb the show would be a better game if players like you played other game.
