    More than likely yes. Especially if the AL and NL collections are 99s instead of 95s. That Palmeiro card was garbage.

    @virusts_XBL That 95 Pedro wasn’t great either.

    Stop whining…it’s most definitely still a power creep. Just not the way you like it.

    It will probably be like it was pre sets & seasons…The collection 99’s, Probably a couple 97’s in packs and probably 93-96 ovr team collections. Just have fun & don’t worry about other people’s teams. It’s baseball…Yes you’ll get stomped sometimes by someone that chose to buy the best cards, That’s their prerogative. Dust yourself off and play again.

    If you got stomped its almost never because of what cards your opponent is using anyway. In fact, I would say people that buy the best cards are probably easier to beat than the rest of the population.

    Power creep doesnt matter. I mean it helps, but skill...i have a team full of 99 P5's, literally played a guy last night he had 95's in my mind i was like this will be easy...he beat me 17-2....skill will always outweigh card levels.

    I say this alL the time thats why I never understand if in a program it allows us to earn a card by repeatable pxp or a showdown it’s ur choice because I will never beat anyone just want to play with my favorite players of all times

    @LIONED-33_XBL yes … true … in most ways. But you cannot put this out as a general statement. Of course, some YT / the GOATS will make World Series with bronze teams. Of course they will beat you/me with prob commons … But some cards will make a difference in close games, that happen very often. Do not get me wrong: Skill is the most important thing. And this game is not pay to win. But if two 600-guys will face and one has more higher overalls, he will win more games (again: I am not saying that he wins 100% of the games 🙂 ).
    I am really looking forward to beating guys much better teams (in my skill range 🙂 ), especially in the early power creep days

    You also have to keep in mind that not every 99 works for everyone. The card rating doesn't equate to success. Just because you have a card doesn't mean the player's swing, for example, will work for you.

    Holy [censored], now you're complaining about people finishing the LS quick and having three or four 99's? Who cares, there's still a power creep. The LS collections should always be 99 rewards because in theory it should take quite a while to get it done. Honestly, it doesn't matter much especially if they don't know how to use them.

    @dbrooks1869_XBL just said "The card rating doesn't equate to success. Just because you have a card doesn't mean the player's swing, for example, will work for you."- I have a perfect example for this, any Kevin Pillar card, doesn't matter if it's a juiced card, his LS or what have you...I absolutely destroy because I just like his swing. For comparison, I can't hit for $hit with Mark McGwire...his swing just feels too long.
