    This looks like a new pack for the shop the last picture -- I just woke up so not totally awake ( brain fuzzy ) but did they do this last year I want to say NO but correct me if I am wrong. IF i am correct not sure I like this cause it seems like they are pushing the shop more then true earnable content.

    Happy to see that they did not ignore Walker but annoyed he is in a pack. I was hoping for a reason to play the program.

    I'll just wait a week until the price is more reasonable.

    @Dolenz_PSN this is a cheap cheap move so we are gonna need all of these for retro? If so money grab at it’s finest.

    I don't expect them to go Reliever for the Lightning Card, but aside from Yordan the only other Lighting Card-worthy player I can think of would be Mason Miller.

    Mason Miller is an 89. Maybe he is getting a decent bump in the roster update Friday that would give him two cards too similar to each other.

    I love how they FIX things that did not need fixing. 2 (3 games ?? are blurring together) games ago this program was perfect outside of maybe a touch grind heavy but easy to fix that but instead last year they switch to this format. --- this screams of a business move someone from high up so not blaming the people that we hear about in streams I am blaming a suite at the top for this stuff just to be clear.

    Soriano lightning, Alvarez chase is my guess

    Only one reliever is just absurd.

    All of these cards make sense. Stoked to get Walker - not a huge deal he’s in a pack, I’d guess we get a free pack in the program.

    I could be wrong but I believe the retro lightning collection said 11 cards prior to today’s update so I’m guessing the pack will make it easier to get the retro lightning.

    Unless it’s tiered and there’s collections inside of it - IE 11 cards will get you the first guy. Similar to how they’ve done cityscapes etc.

    I am going to wait to lay down a verdict on this until it's released but my gut tells me I will be back and not happy when I post about this again in a few hours but I hope I am wrong.

    @Dolenz_PSN I agree, but Yordan's in the same boat as well with an 88 LS Card that should get boosted in a few days. Either way you go, you're going to have a Lightning Player with a similar OVR to their LS card.
