For me personally I've seen the success players have had with No Money Spent teams
Yep... I used a two accounts back in the 2016 or 2017 game. My NMS all gold team did better than my money team of diamonds, and was just one win short of making the WS. Not sure why, but I probably just focused more with my NMS team due to usually having lesser cards than my opponent.
I feel like NMS you will construct your team more to your play style or simply use the cards you have more success with for whatever reason vs putting the highest overall at every position.
Shoot I already learned my lesson from my main team this year that when/if I get to the Charisma Pack in Season 1 XP path I'm not picking Lee Smith... I went into Ranked and got burned something awful... lol... so even though he's a No Money Spent/Grind card he won't be on my NMS team until he's the only Charisma left but that would only be if I get additional packs after the initial ones in the path.
Good point. The past couple of years I mainly have been prioritizing the cards I like the best, and not just based on their ratings. For example, Eric Davis was my fav player growing up and he will always be my CF, regardless of the rating. I am not a pro gamer, nor a YouTuber, so I only play for the enjoyment.
Or, iow, I would rather lose with the cards I like the best, than lose with the higher rated cards that I do not like as much. lol
