Balanced game are more in Versus mode where you can choose an approximate same overall than your opponent.
i disagree mainly because I’m sure we have all lost game to skills players using lower overall cards. I stand behind my decision that these 90 overall team builds are bad for the game. There is a higher advantage to win based on these cards and making 6 available all at once is a mistake. Not mentioning that you give such a strong synergy boost which adds more help onto of the 90 overall.

Can we nerf these team builder 90 overalls. So toxic in games players obviously know how op they are stacked team builders x6 plus Mario, Gretzky, makar, McDavid, lindros, cant even knock them over unless you have 85 plus check. Even then still rough this was a bad decision ea.
My chances to win against these team are very low.
ea do you want all teams to be exactly the same? It’s probably completely mirror matches how’s the fair play and fun?
let me guess boxing week you’ll market the store all for newbies.
I’m asking you out attention to this topic.
the meta is suffer the only players that will complain are the ones taking advantage of this set up.
ea are you even playing the game and testing still?- IWDTCG2 years agoNew Scout
Will you be fixing the op (means overpowered) team builder cards?
The defensive player cards are the ones most broken. Before chiming in I've watched what happens very closely with these cards and it's clearly in rediculous territory. I've played many bad players who own these cards and they pretty much result in a tough close game even if you aren't skilled at the game
Aucoin, Regehr and Mitchell literally are as fast as Bobby Orr in full stride protecting the corner boards. This wouldn't be a problem that much if they didn't hit like enraged Hulk. Seriously one hit knocked down two of my beefy (means manly and muscular) forwards and pushed them both about 15 feet in game. Further to this these hits are almost all boarding hits which it seems the refs in this game don't understand. You actually have to have the puck you can't just paste any player you want anytime you like.
Ive owned my own beefy power forwards and the hitting and speed isn't comparable. Further to this the momentum offsets on these players are way out to lunch. Just by being on the ice my teams energy bars fatigue ridiculously fast for no reason other than your game engine is performing some kind of simulation, which clearly does not match what is going on behind what the two players are doing in the game.
If the meta game game can't be balanced properly there really is no point becoming a loyal fan of this game. As it is this is my second chance on this series but I'm not giving it a third next year or ever if you can't provide better quality in the game offsets.

Agreed here with the comment.
I am really worried with new team of the year and team builders alot of synergies willbe maxed out with more stat increases and
teams will be unstoppable with protect puck and other skating skills that lure you in a hit that can’t be done. The good to decent Player base knows the tricks and they exploit every opportunity given with tools provided.
The only way to win consistently is to be a player that goes into areas of the games which allows you to make grill cheese sticks.example
cross crease
short side top shelf from corner
Michigan
circle snipes
L2 into open side
back hand deke
one handed tuck corner
5 hole
any one these goals are consistent enough to use op cards to play into an advantage.
i am leaning towards crafting my own team builders just to stay competitive but I rather counter the meta. So please ea give us something to work with here. Thank you.
