Game is stupid

Why do you put seasons qualifiers on here when you end up playing against someone that has all 90+ rated guys? If those guys wanna make EA rich by purchasing packs then let them play against each other otherwise us guys that don't buy packs have no chance in winning anything. It makes no sense to me. Ive gone the last 4+ months earning all of my guys by either trading in 2 gold rare for 1 gold rare or completing progressions or events as I should do. It makes the game garbage when every single time you know you have no chance in winning against anyone that scores and they have a Legacy 99 Gretzky or 95 Modano that obviously they bought with cash from buying packs. I bought this game to have fun playing hockey and it destroys the fun of it because you know for a fact to get a 99 Gretzky you had to spend well over $100 on packs to get all the Gold Legand collectibles you need. Apparently the guys with teams and every player over 90 have purchased ALOT of packs and it shouldn't be fair to have them play against people that play fair with what they earn, that's what gaming is all about. Not having the best guys because you bought them, but having the good guys because you EARNED them. This makes NHL 19 TRASH because there is no chance in hell anyone that plays fair and plays with guys they've earned or bought out of the store with actual EARNED coins is ever going to beat someone that bought every player and thinks hes cool because his guys can slap a shot from the blue line everytime and score because the rating of the guys they have don't miss a pass or nothing. You play against these guys and your guys cant even catch them. This Game Sucks because to many people wanna pretend to be good because there 95 94 93 overall guys cant be touched and the person actually suck. WHAT HAPPENED TO PLAYING FAIR??? GUESS EA JUST WANTS MONEY OUT OF EVERYONE and if you don't spend $100 a week or more on packs your guys go no where.

You can either put the time in and grind for the free players or buy packs, it your choice. People can spend their money however they want. I’ve been beaten by guys with almost all base gold rare cards and I have beaten guys with both 99 Gretzky and 99 Mario and everyone else in the low to mid 90’s. It helps to have good cards, but it is not the be all and end all of this game.
He then just goes on a rant about people buying their teams, I just pointed out that one can get a stacked team without spending any cash this year.
[edited for swearing]
lol Scheifele is the better 90 card imo
He very well could be? But for a 3rd line winger it came down to one I could sell the other I can’t.
> What a steaming pile of horse manure. EA has made it very easy this year to get very good cards for free.On my team 10 out of 12 forwards are untradeable, those 10 cards range from 88 ovr - 94 ovr. All free. 2 of my D are untradeable and still hope to hit div 1 soon and get Horton. Do your trade in sets, I got a 91 Xmas Keith and a 90 asg skinner doing those and doing those sets eventually gets you the 94 Sakic.

Obviously your someone that buys packs. I have gotten rewarded cards for gameplay and yes the reroll is the only way you can get good guys to trade but you need those good guys to trade first and why am I going to trade my good guys when I only have two of them. The only way to get good guys without reroll is to buy the packs or rewards.
Obviously you are someone who is wrong. 11 out of my 12 forwards are untradeable, which means I did the grinds to get all the free monthly legends. I have also completed most of the milestones and objectives. They got me, 94 Sakic, 92 Modano, 91 Gartner and 91 Mcinnis. I have picked up 3 90 ovr guys from rerolls this year. Every event also has some decent free players you can get. Like this month you can get a free 89 Suban and a 89 Spezza. All you have to do is beat the daily challenge on pro to get the collectable, get 4 pick the one you want, get 8 collectables and get them both.
Play in the hut champs, if you can just qualify then play your 5 games to get ranked even if you lose all 5 games your guaranteed a gold plus pack. Same with competitive seasons, even getting the lowest reward is still something. And I have seen some decent cards pulled in bronze and silver packs this year.
If you don’t want to spend money on packs that’s fine. But people who do buy packs are not cheating, as you seem to think.
EA has made it so easy to get good free players this year, but some people will just never be satisfied until they get to start the year with a team of 90 + players.
Wow I’m having some good luck with the rerolls I pulled 91 flashback Zach Parise tonight
I also can not explain why these so-called legends often have the puck in front of their skids, but just keep going.
I'm not such a good player, but you should be able to play a game, even though, as I've been told by "EA", the NHL 19 HAT is only for good players, then you should print it on the cover.
If I put my best players together, I have a score of 93.
Synergy FB, BE, BU and DW are also activated.
But if I play a HUT challenge offline eg against a SHL team, level ALLStar or Super Star, then the SHL players are faster than my TopStars, like Roenick, Modano.
And that's nonsense
A bicycle is not faster than a motorbike, unless you manipulate it.
> I buy packs I am proof buying packs don’t make you good, but the good players playing against players of my ranks exploit every gap. And with tuners etc that let you spam pokes and stick lifts with no peanlties those good players become legends. I have lost to teams with 10 lower overall but looking at their status they are 5-6k higher than me in the rankings. There are very little help videos and I still haven’t figured out how to crouch protect the puck and skate my guys stop when I do that. If you want to be competitive and win you have to play and forget about losing and just get better problem with me is my competitive nature hates to lose.
All im stating is the guys above 88 but mostly 90+ are all untouchable unless you buy packs to keep up, ive rerolled about all my guys and got an 89 Keller woohoo. Your not getting 99 Mario or 99 Gretzky w/o buying packs or purchasing jack. If your guys are 88+ then your untouchable to someone that plays the game as you should and earn your guys. It don't make you a good player when your AI guys will get you the puck w/o a doubt everytime its loose and if you have a whole team of guys over 88 (which are 95% bought in packs) then you should be in a different class ranking because I play this game any free time I can and never once have gotten a 90+ guy unless I did the monthly collectibles. ANYONE with a full team of LEGAND (which is 90% of EA season players) has done nothing but purchase packs to get good guys and then claim to be good. If my guys automatically defended the puck and ran to the puck and got it every second it came free and all I had to do was shoot is that making me a good player??? Boy you guys have soft hearts and defend the fact that the players with ALL 90+ guys should be in different ranks. Nothing against anyone that wants to claim to be a allstar and all you did was purchase packs to be ontop, good for you, but you should not be playing against players that have 81-85 for majority of the team. EA should not put 90+ teams against -85 teams. I don't mind getting a whooping every once in awhile and have earned my way and gotten within the 1500 qualification needed to play in the season but EVERY single game is against someone who clearly has bought a ton of packs and had collectibles from packs and cant get a better team. LITERALLY THEY CAN STAND THERE WITH THE PUCK and nothing you can do.... Just don't make for a fair game is all im saying and its stupid

that's exactly my point, I can activate every synergy you listed but cant touch a team full of legands because they have 3 synergys and im sure they all colaberate and even out to be a 99 team and then some. I have a 91 goalie and 89 goalie and no matter what any onetimer from a legand player or team goes in, GO FIGURE, make it more realistic. Im a good player and made it part of the 1500 that make the season a few times with 81's 83's & 85's but end up getting whooped so bad in the season I cant even touch the puck, the other guy skates past me and steals the puck, (def the AI doing that) so how is it fair that if you pay thousands for players you caqn just sit back and hit the shoot analog (literally) because you don't even have to chase the puck and your going to msg ppl that I suck? No, buying the packs to get the good players makes you suck because you have to do nothing at all during gameplay. I just got whooped 9-3 in my final season game and the other team scored 9 before the end of the first period. All he did the rest of the game was stand there with the puck because that's all you gotta do with higher ranked guys. I fought the whole game just to steal the puck from a guy standing there and was only able to score 3 goals in 2 20min periods because the AI is ontop of the loose pucks faster then you can make your closest guy skate to it. Just seems like EA is going to FAVOR you if you hook em up with your weekly paycheck. Im not about that, I like to earn my way to the top like you used to have to in every game ever made, not buy your way to the top, claim your awesome but in all reality you really aren't.

I don't mind earning my way through the game, exactly my point here. If you want to buy packs THATS FINE, EA shouldn't pair them people up with people that have players below 85 and you cant touch them. That is all im saying. You wanna waste your money and think your an allstar, go ahead because your not when AI is playing the game for you
Notice how there almost all untradeable. I did spend $100 back in September just to get me going, but nothing since then.
That’s crazy
