Season 9 - Out of This World (FINAL SEASON)
-
As we wind down the cycle, it's starting to look like most of the cards we've all been waiting for are here (earlier than last year even). Some of the most recent drops included cards many of us wanted in our end game lineups (DRob, Yao, etc).
What do we have to look forward to? I'm a SUCKER for grinds as I've completed Tacko and Blake, but is there honestly anything they could throw our way in the final season to entice us? Surely Invincible PG LeBron, Giannis are on the horizon, but will they be auctionable cards or locked behind a domination?
2K wants us to keep playing and their grinds are sort of way to achieve that. But no grind is worth it anymore unless it's not just an invincible card, but one that surpasses anything we already have.
What are we expecting going forward?
-
Aint much left tbh most of the big name cards already out they gonna have to pull some shit like a pg thon and dm manute maybe
-
10 more out of position drops
-
2k gonna do some shit next season that makes us still play i know that for sure lol but this year 2k got dead real quick
-
Iām expecting invincible Hakeem to be some sort of reward. I think we get invincible Ben Simmons to start off the season
-
Hopefully we get LeBron Friday
-
-
The next season will be short and we should get a final Domination. I fully expect that IF the final Domination is a crazy af reward that it will be behind some type of pay wall like lineup restrictions to complete. A PG Invincible Giannis, or Bron won't be "free" even IF it's a grindable reward.
As far as possible cards we still don't have Invincible versions of Kawki, Ben, or Hakeem. Outside of them who knows what players may get the Invincible treatment. Thon, Karl Malone, Embiid, Westbrook, Paul Pierce, Dr. J ?
-
-
If they drop a new domination or new Spotlights, I hope itās actually a long grind. Not just some ridiculous pain in the ass that if you get lucky could be completed in less than a day. And they better not do stupid requirements like āWin while scoring 10 points or less as a teamā. Iām fine with them requiring players from certain teams but please no more Richard Jefferson type challenges.
-
@xzclaimer facts bro just let me play some full games and not some stupid luck based restrictions games
-
@errolzzz Honestly. Give us some full games. Iām so tired of Triple Threat games. Like let me use my full team.
-
Come September you'll have all sorts of full normal domination to play
-
invincible Vince, ben, hakeem, kawhi, pg bron and pg giannis, zion, dm "the racist", inv klay, dr.j and probably a demon from the 60's that nobody heard of
-
Could be something slightly out of the box for Domination. Hopefully HOF badges for every win.
I am fine with game requirements but let me use the team I have worked for all year.
-
Last year Yao was basically the final boss and we still have a whole season left. I think we're about to get a lot of crazy ass cards.
I need the dom reward to be fire. Also they can hold the goofy requirements. For the people who like those rng grinds they have had plenty to do. Dom should be straight up 5v5 no weird shit.

@mattpoz Danny Ferry. Goated 2K card; unabashed racist:
-
So which reissued packs do they ram down our throats today? Season Rewind Supers? Promo Supers? Gotta be some VC-only junk coming our way at 11.

probaby
i wish 2k was creative and competent enough to not follow the same dry ass release pattern every week
-
@jase idols, season rewind, or season super packs probably
-
Itās impossible to make requirements for Dom, right? All you need to do is win the game and earn the MT required
Hoping for a DM for each game completed, + a crazy Invincible card for the reward. Invincible Manute sounds about right
-
@jase Idols today, Season rewind tomorrow, the entire season Wednesday, nothing Thursday
-
Also imma need 2K to drop those guaranteed DM MPJ token packs

@jase highlight of the week will be the final season blog on Thursday
Absolutely no excuse for them to hold back the rewards now.
-
Domination better reward 3 Invincible cards. Something like Invincible Dr J for the East, Invincible Hakeem for the West, then Invincible LeBron or Kawhi for collecting both and beating the final 3 teams.

Well at least the szn rewind cards are cheap
-
@atgalex Yep, time to buy back Marcus Smart

Woah this opal Kyle Anderson is good

@mattpoz I'm gonna steal your list and repost it here because it seems realistic enough.

Level 28: DM Jamal Mashburn
Ascension: Inv Isiah Thomas
Exchange: Inv Rick Barry

Domination: Inv Chris Bosh
Token Reward: Inv Julius Erving
-
@element chris bosh for domination no thanks
-
@errolzzz I think if they are dropping a domination in mid-July it will come with a lot of other rewards. Like they will put some juicy options into the token market like they did last year (1000 tokens for Giannis, Rashard, etc) and then domination will give you like 100 tokens per win. They have to keep us playing somehow.
-
Thomas and Grant Hill? Sign me up
-
DM Paul Pierce, Al Horford, Tony Parker. Just a few that come to mind. Maybe Jabari Parker or Teague deserve a DM or opal. But I really only expect an Inv Giannis and Lebron at PG
-
@dc80 I just hope that IF they had a juiced card for 2000 TT offline wins that they either make the vault card solid too, or make the auxiliary rewards way better (ideally both). 1 token is a total insult at this point. Imagine getting a TT win reward that is 0.1% of the tokens needed for Galaxy Opal Wally Sczcerbiak

Not a bad concept
