"Anyone who is confident with their in-game skills doesn't give a single hoot about these premade builds."
That's a pretty stupid blanket statement. Do you realize how many of your posts or statements start with "Anyone" or something of the like. I'm sorry but you're just flat out dense, and trying very hard to come across as anything but.
Furthermore, where are these anyones? Where is your support here? This is my thread I created to call EA out, not a discussion on it. There are youtubers or "influencers" who are saying the same thing, google it yourself. Most people on here seem to in agreement as well. The discord group I'm in which has some of the best players in the game have also agreed and discussed it. Seems like it's just you and Aljo -who happens to be directly affiliated with EA- who disagree.
You know what that means? It means there is evidence to support that most people seem to be in agreement that this is becoming pay to win, regardless of skill level.
Here's a thought. Maybe you aren't right about everything and can't speak for everyone, or "anyone" but yourself.
I don't bother reading most of your posts. You have been on these forums for years, responding the same way, talking down to people. Quite depressing. Are you a sociopath? As well as just simply a contrarian?
