    You mean in RS or other online games, right? Because otherwise, as long as you've earned, bought, or gotten the card in a pack, you can use it now. And as far as Elly is concerned, his Milestone is Set 3, and his LS is core, both of which can be used in online games now.

    It's like i try and add him to my lineup, it asks me to activate him as a wild card, and then when i do it makes the past card i had as a wild card a silver, (switching the cards), is there a way to go past the wild card thing?

    Use the Generate Best Lineup option (not the best S3 lineup). Once you get it out of S3 mode, you will be able to stick any of your cards in your lineup.

    What’s this about the wild card? Does enabling it render other cards less effective? Is this only in a certain mode or am I completely misinterpreting the OP…if so I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised ha! Can someone set me straight pretty please

    With sets and seasons, you can use one expired card as a wild card on your team, if you build a current season team.

    Depends on which Elly card you are trying to use and what mode.

    • 99 Set 1 Elly Card - Can't be used in Season 3 unless he is in the Wildcard spot.

    • 99 Set 3 Elly - Should be able to be used in the current Season 3 without needing to be a wildcard

    • 94 Topps Now Elly - This is Set 3 and can also be used in the current Season 3 without needing to be a wildcard

    • 79 Live series - This is a core card and can be used without restriction.

    To answer the question in your Title. Season 6 is the next season that can use anyone without any restrictions. Problem is that may be January.

    Also some Conquests (USA Map for example), Some Mini Seasons and Play VS CPU have no restrictions and you should be able to make any team you want and play those.

    Good....I was going to guess sometime after the post season. I did not realize that they addressed that. Thanks.

    Yeah the wild card doesn’t mess with other cards. Do you play much online? Many of the offline programs you don’t even need to use a wild card because you can use any. Team Affinity you need to use set 2 or 3 for progress.

    I still don’t quite understand why the wild card doesn’t get you progress for TA. To me, that defeats the point. If I’m playing CPU, the only reason to use any card is for progress in PXP so why have a wild card that does nothing? My two cents.

    It sounds like you want to use the Topps Now Elly card. That's in set 3. You likely have it set for set 1 or 2 if it's making you use it as your WC.

    Go to where you switch for teams and look to where it says S1, S2, or S3. If it says S3 you should be fine unless It's the Elly S1 99ovr card. Any way around it, you can just go to the settings to the right of the team name.

    Generate best team without the S1-S3 on it and you should be good to go.

    I swear we are not all A joles like that @BxnnyMxn__PSN guy.
    j/k (kind of)

    I’ve had myself convinced for some time that something I’ve been doing has been causing my players fielding to drop from diamond down to gold. I tell ya Im just sure if it! I really thought I had solved it when it saw this OP. The fact that the most recent incident that occurred was my 3B just added to my confusion along with the NyQuil. I apologize if it appears like I’m not sincere because I truly am…that’s a real problem with text and me. I thought maybe the phenomenon was being induced by my use of the wild card or something. I know it’s sounds stupid but to someone like me who is diametrically opposed to using social media and have never watched a stream of any kind besides my own urine, the only source I use for this game is this forum and you guys. I’ve learned so much in the six months I’ve been playing the show but am still clueless so that’s fun

    ??? the teams I use for TA are consistently non S3...but then I haven't done TA3 yet (I'm waiting for S4 so I can work on them simultaneously). I'm going to have to pay attention to this.

    Oh Bunny. Does the closure of Rich Mountain Rd effect you any?

    Thank you my friend! This gives me closure on that and I was needing it rather badly after that marathon conquest session I had just went thru for the extreme map. I’ve only played 3 games online…i played a friendly with @Blind_Bleeder and I did two other games for the egg and that’s the sum of my experience there…it’s just not for me is all - was thinking we might share this trait along with the many others. I had been using the WC on occasion just to pitch with my best Dontrelle card and I also like to let him get his ABs in as well as he was always such a great hitting pitcher, and with this info you’ve given me now I’ll just disable the S3 filter and pick whomever I want. I thank you very very much for this!

    Thank you for that spread sheet you sent to me via discord. I had honestly forgotten about having that app until I came across a notification that said you had sent it…strangely it just popped up on my iPad yesterday or the day before though lol!
    I’m so intimidated by this TA stuff I don’t even have a clue how it all works and what rewards I’ve gotten from it have nearly all came from (I guess) just accidentally having someone in my lineup that generated me some points in it…oh and the MTO mode that you introduced me to. I don’t have a single completed division for any of the seasons and I swear it seems like I keep getting points in the s1 program over all the others but ain’t sure as to why. I’ve been saving it for last but I’m about to finish WBC moments which is my last program (not counting extreme of course) so I’m going to have to face the music soon

    @BxnnyMxn__PSN If you stick a fielder in a secondary position, their fielding will drop. You might have some fielders who are right on the edge of diamond and that's why you see them drop. Also, why are you using a wildcard for offline play? You can have all S1 cards if you want.

    Maybe it’s time to switch out the NyQuil for cough syrup…or Listerine? 😉
