The Structure of Weekend League is Terrible.

I finished my first full WL last week and went 19-6.

EA screwed up the standings so I received double the rewards.  I think I ended up with about a million coins.  Pretty cool right?

Well this week I haven’t even done one game because the thought of forcing myself to commit to playing 25 games makes me want to puke. 

I want a damn Competitive mode where maybe ranking points can be won or lost over a month, I don’t want to be forced to play the game until I want to slit my wrists.  I would like to enjoy the game and the team I built.

 It seems rewards were better last year ... :?

If you truly did go 19-6 then it took you approx. 10-15 hrs. If you start thurs night and chip away its really not that bad, in regards to time taken. Gameplay is a whole other story.

THIS!  AMEN!!!

If you want to play the only competive mode in the game you are forced to.

This is frustrating to me as well.

25 would work if we went back to 2 minute corners like back in the day.  Quick and easy; more fun to compete.

I think it would be better to make the rewards a limited player only available through success in WL rather than packs.

Quote from ThatFalloutGod >> I don't disagree, 25 games over the course of four days (and it use to be three) is ridiculous to expect from people on a consistent basis (like for the monthly rewards). Even if you're in a position where you've got the time to waste on it, it's too draining because the games last for upwards of an hour each and the game is constantly screwing you, so it's not fun at all. Not to mention, there are plenty of times where people play all of the games, get a good record, but get garbage packs. 

I'd rather have Weekend League than not, because I do think it's a good idea, but if that's going to be the "competitive" mode and the only real way you can play online and get remotely decent rewards (because H2H is literally worthless until you get enough collectibles to get 300k, which isn't even worth it at that point), then it either needs to be reworked and/or other modes' rewards need to be reworked.

It can b draining getting 25 games in over a weekend. I wouldn’t mind having a weekly mode. U could even up it to like 35-40 games but b able to play it over the whole week

Because the competition is better in WL and you can see how you are doing.
