@Easy_Duhz_It_ keep licking those boots.

Didn’t tops get bought out? I loved those programs too but maybe that’s seething going on behind the scenes?

As long as the Lightning and Season's Best cards are Core cards.
If they aren't Core; by the time you get rhe last one; you won't be able to use it unless you blow a WC slot.

@allstarslayer Topps is now owned by Fanatics, but nothing's changed in the game with Topps. The live series cards are still Topps cards and most of the flashbacks/legends are based on old Topps cards too. So this can't be related to that.

This. When Fanatics got the MLBPA license; they also bought Topps. Topps could still make cards, without the license, but they wouldn't be able to have the team names or logos.
Fanatics didn't want that competition; so they bought Topps and kept the name.
Michael Rubin has a phenomenal business mindset.

Bummer, this was one of the programs i liked doing instead of the TA grind. Hopefully whatever replaces it is equally as good

I didn't watch. Are they really ditching POTM? That's the best program in the game IMO.
Yep. Said it’s due to it not working well with the power creep or some similar BS.

Im fine with this. With 3 team affinity chapters coming out per season, we have more than enough of a grind without the tedious Topps Now grind to unlock POTM cards to grind for a lightning card
Oh they’re still doing Topps Now. Just no POTM. And TA is ok, but I’ve always preferred POTM to every other program they do.
-
So we’re not still complaining this is a cut and paste job from last year?

Season awards is basically POTM with a different name and a little different structure.
It's either this way or have POTM drop at the beginning of the season and have you guys cry when the cards would be 85-90 and the lightning card is a 92.
The way they described season awards doesn’t sound great at all. And I’m fine with the lightning card not being a 99 every month. A few years ago I believe the lightning card for the first POTM program was like a 95 or something similar. I don’t them to always be 99’s. I just enjoy the program.

I’m sure this is because of the people not wanting so many 99s early in the game. Take it up with those people.
