Fantasy to TOTY cost

EA_Aljo , Shouldn't the Fantasy to TOTY be one for one? The PWHL cards especially were not free to make. We needed to use our collections to make them (no earn-able collectibles were offered). ...

The best I can tell you is that I'll pass on the feedback. I am not involved in the design behind items and events.

Thanks for the response. I really hope we can get an explanation from someone who is involved in these decisions. I think it's very strange to make such a huge change, especially when it makes things significantly worse than they used to be, and not explain it at all. I don't think this is how it should go.

And today's release made it even more confusing. It costs 34 collectibles to trade in Daryl Watts' Fantasy Hockey card for her TOTY card, compared to 36 collectibles with Sarah Fillier. It appears to be because Watts' Fantasy Hockey card is currently at a higher overall than Fillier. But that shouldn't matter. Fillier's Fantasy Hockey card was just as expensive to build as Watts, so her TOTY trade in set shouldn't be more expensive than Watts even though her Fantasy Hockey card is currently at a lower overall. Neither of the Fantasy Hockey to TOTY sets should require any collectibles because they should be 1 for 1 like last year, but one of them should also not be more expensive than the other. I hope you can pass on this feedback as well.

As you mentioned, the difference in needed collectibles is due to the overalls. A higher overall is worth more so less collectibles are required.

As far as requiring the FH item + collectibles goes, as with every year, there are going to be changes. I've relayed the feedback here to the team on the addition of requiring collectibles on top of the FH item.

  Yes, but why is a higher overall worth more in this case when the two cards were equally expensive to build during the Fantasy Hockey event? That's what I don't understand.
  It would normally make sense that a higher overall is worth more than a lower overall. But in this case, when the higher overall doesn't mean that the card was more expensive to build, it doesn't make sense to me.

    If I have any other details on that, I'll let you know.
