I’d assume that they will just allow you to use the Shazier token as a form of currency to get a RP patch, not that you can’t participate without the token.

 I hope that's the case, otherwise that's just more reason not to get Madden 20.

Can’t win online 125 times in a year but have time for every solo? Lol win

 Again, smart As like you are the reason I don’t have any desire to play online. I didn’t say I didn’t have time to play online, I said I don’t enjoy playing online and would rather just focus on the solos. I apologize that my version of having fun with Madden doesn’t match up with yours. Does that mean I shouldn’t be allowed to participate in a promo?

I played about 3 games online this year and won one of them, so I probably could have won 125 if I spent a bunch of time playing online but that is not how I like to play the game. 

what i don't get is why everyone even wants these? At best i would use at trading, but look at this year's RP How much did that effect your game ovr? Saquan didn't get a 94 ovr card until a few months ago. i think it's worthless. 

The cards aren’t that good at all and it’s no huge advantage to have them but the main reason I wanted them (and got them) is that there is nothing else to do with your coins. I’m not playing Madden 19 anymore obviously with Madden 20 coming on ea access this week so there was no point in having a 99 overall team with millions of coins saved up going forward since I’ll never boot that game up again. This promo at least gave me something to trade in for so I didn’t end 19 with a whole bunch of assets that I would never again use. The cards may have marginal value but it’s still more marginal value than I would otherwise have in Madden 20. At a minimum I start the game with some solid depth pieces on my team and maybe one or two of them will get timely enough updates to hit my starting lineup a few times through the season (like Saquon when he first got bumped to an 88 last year). 

There are 3 offensive cards and 3 defensive cards out of the 10 that I think offer some utility up front. I think with Madden 20’s push of QBs (face of franchise, Mahomes on the cover) that Kyler Murray will get the rookie upgrade that Saquon got (which would explain his lower starting rating than many expected) so he may be usable. In the main game, Marquise Brown has the 2nd highest speed rating behind only Tyreek Hill so assuming that stays true in MUT - a top end speed play at WR has value regardless of the overall rating. Josh Jacobs looks like he’ll be a good finisher/goal like back which is useful. Bosa should be good as he has potential to win defensive ROY and Quinnen Williams has a solid enough rating out of the box to be a DT 2 or 3 for a bit. Finally, DeAndre Baker is useful just because you need so many CB. 

Just saying, they aren’t designed to be huge parts of a team that stay in the starting lineup all year but I’ll gladly take cards that have utility value to a team and help me start my core.

So K you’re saying that the only way to get a rookie premiere card is to have a Shazier token which you need to win 125 games online to get? I play all the challenges and build my roster because that’s the part of MUT that I enjoy. I do not play competitively online because A) I’m not that good and B) I don’t like getting berated by 12 year olds because I don’t spam the same two plays all game.

 

I have been playing through solos and building my coins up over the past month in anticipation of RP and you’re saying that I wasted my time and cannot participate in RP because I don’t have a Shazier token? I guess I should cancel my pre-order for Madden 20 now as clearly somebody like myself doesn’t matter to your company.

 Can you downgrade Shazier to get the token back? I’m in the same boat as you man. I have completed Everything on the MUT Master list except my 125 online wins. I’m at 78 wins and simply don’t have the time to sit down and grind out that many 45minute online games. I got kids and playing online doesn’t always work out too well. If I get screwed outa RP because of that second token I’ll be choked.

I think he is saying it will give you additional RP stuff by having the token. I am sure they will have packs and sets like they do every year. I myself have saved up about 7millon coins for this promo. I hope packs drop at like 50k or less each.

No, but I do not hate the Bengals.

We have the second worst theme team, right in front of the Lions. We were not even in the bottom 10 of the league this past season, not to mention a lot of our key players went down with injury. We need some love! No cards last promo and no cards this promo with one more batch of releases. And now our #1 pick is out for the season (though that's nothing new) and he would just be battling for a roster spot with Munoz, so that doesn't really help my theme team either.

Lets be honest......the bengals history isnt very good

 I think that's asking too much of these clowns at EA. They want money, and they don't care how they get it. Everyone, cancel your pre-orders of Madden 20 so we can show them that we're not gonna take this lying down!

If they want money this promo should be open to everybody not just people who completed the Shazier. That would limit their money intake because less people overall would have access and reason to spend money.

Still not a single Seahawks player so glad I deleted this game after they said no more power up players. 

Im just waiting to see if they give kenny clark a card

WHY HILL??  It could be like anybody else

Quote from Mersedaddy >>

Did he mention why EA hates the Bengals?

 They don’t hate us, we just suck. Who do you think deserves a card they don’t have?

I completed it a long time ago but if I remember they made it so you don’t have to play online to get it. 

 

Also ironically part part of the reason you are having issues being “good” is because you run the same two plays (just going off what you said). If you played me I’d figure it out by second quarter and change up my game plan and win

 How about you learn how to read if you’re going to quote “off what I said”? I specifically said that I DON’T run the same two plays as 80% of the online players. 

You remember incorrectly - you could power Shazier up to 95 without online play but you needed to do both the online play and the checklist to get the completion token even though it was advertised at the beginning of the game that you got to choose how to earn your way with Shazier.

And good for you that you “figure out” how to beat people online - that’s irrelevant to the point that people like myself who are in their 30s and have kids and like to play games solo or play local games with friends and don’t partake in the online competitive scene should not be penalized for that and disallowed to participate in the most relevant promo that has been offered in the game over the past 6 months.

If you guys don’t have 125 wins by now then just stay away from the game lmao

You will need the MUT Master Shazier completed token. Hope this provides some clarification.

 Thanks for ruining the one program that could've saved Madden 19. Why do you think people are cancelling their pre-orders?

Cmon ea give us one Seahawks please. Jarran Reed had 10.5 sacks and he has a 87 ovr. M

They missed multiple Seahawks 

But its nothing new in MUT

So you have to have Shazier maxed out to do RP? Is that what they're getting at?
