Some people expressed concerns right at launch

So thanks for the video link above. I guess it all boils down to card releases. And yes, as mentioned, I am an offline player.
Here is the text from their graphic.
Some modes throughout Diamond Dynasty, like Ranked and Conquest, will require season squads made of of in-season cards., keeping squads fresh and competition fierce.
Dates listed for the seasons
Season 1 - Jan 1 - May 12 (Core and set 1 cards)
Season 2 - May 12 - July 7 (Core, Set 1 and Set 2)
Season 3 - July 7th - Sep 1 (Core, Set 2 and Set 3)Now as a Cardinal Fan who likes to use my Cardinals squad for many Conquests I see the following Set 1 Cards already
92 Wainwright (Captain)
97 Tommy Edman (Charisma)
90 Tyler O'Neill (WBC)
95 Arenado (WBC)
95 Goldschmidt (WBC)These are all labeled as Set 1 cards which means they all stop being relevant at the all star break.
Will we get new versions of those players? Will the Cardinals get a new team captain (or a new Wainwright card) for set 3? Will I spend countless time grinding a team affinity for 97 Tommy Edman just so he can be obsolete in July and then have to revert back to his live series card at that point?
How many will be disappointed when that awesome 99 Trea Turner WBC card can't be used in ranked after the all star break?
Sure they make it seem like you have options as you can have a single wild card where you can use a one player from a past set.
I have so many questions and concerns. If my fears come to pass then I could be frustrated and quit by my birthday (July 8th)
To answer my questions above about those specific players.
Only O'Neill has a better card that is Set 2.
Goldy has a lower rated Set 2 card.Wainwright, Arenado and Edman will all be forced to go back to live series if I want to continue to use them.
I also lose 99 Edmonds, Walker, Smith and Gibson.
In fairness the Goldy Set 2 card is a Captain card which with the exception of some are all 92s, and it boost Gold cards... I'm curious as to how those boost work when a Gold card gets supercharged.
Yeah, I understand that is more the normal rating for captains. I will use him most likely when the WBC Goldschmidt expires. His captain boost won't really help my Cardinals theme team though.
It'll help the Live Series Golds at least (maybe the Legend/Flashback golds too)... I'm not sure since I haven't had the opportunity to start a season to get that card yet, trying to get some seasons of Lefty Loosey in, just finished one and won the chip... gonna try to get the two All-Star or higher difficulty missions completed and hopefully complete the Mystery Mission and get whoever I didn't pick from the Booster pack that you get at 15 wins.
