I know what you mean OP. The game this year is very shallow. You can't stray to far from the top card-wise, because then thresholds are not met and you put yourself at a huge, nearly insurmountable, disadvantage. Everyone playing H2H has largely the same team (Vick, Moss, Ricky, Shaz, Deion) and the same scheme (Crossers, Gun Bunch Pats Sails, Freeze glitch toss, Nickel Normal). Cheesy plays, players and cards. Using and mastering a playbook means squat when plays get repeated by an opponent over and over until something outside the your control (insta-sheds, DBs dumbing out, etc) breaks.
And then these Solos that are just not fun at all....3rd Q, down by 3 or up by 7, win the game. All I do is score once, stop the CPU once and run the clock out to get my coins and go to the next solo.
None of it is fresh or innovative. It's boring and repetitive. It's not fun.
The only thing that's still any fun is trying to make coins on the auction house or opening packs . . . and it really is the gamble that brings the excitement. That's all it is. I might as well go play video poker and do sports betting.
