what is the difference between events and BR?
-
I just started trying out online modes. I am enjoying events since they're only 3 innings and you can keep playing.
How is BR different? I know you have to 1500 spend stubs to enter BR but is it also 2 losses and your out? Then you have to pay up 1500 stubs again after 2 losses? And what if you don't go 12-0? Say you go 10-0 and have 2 more games to win and you lose, does it put you back to 0-0?

Br you have to pay 1500 stubs and events are free.

Yes to all you asked.
Flawless is 10-0 this year, there is also the program with it.
events are the same - lose 2 and it's over and have to start another(difference is events are free entry)
unlike missions to earn BR pts for the program, event rewards are win based. BR is also a draft and you can use players you don't have,events are from your inventory and have different setups for each one. -
BR gets a bad rap because of the 1500 entry fee but it is easily made back. If you are good enough to go 10-0 it pays off big time, but even the regular person can do well in the program. Just completing the program will get you 4 silvers, 4 gold, 4 diamond, 1 Flawless Diamond (all that work towards Season 1 collections)...plus XP, some stubs, etc. You get a pack for every entry. It took me five entries this season and I am an average player at best.
I like BR because of the team-building aspect. You can maybe draft in a manner where bronze do not matter, but no matter what you do, the golds and silvers come into play. There are a lot of guys that I like but they don't get the greatest cards. However, they can still be very useful in BR. If you haven't tried it, I would give it a try. Back in '21 I tried events first and had no interest in BR. Once I played a full season, it became my favorite mode.
