Unpopular opinion: Master cards harm team creativity/overall team building
So, I was watching the MUT deep dive and it's time I said this. I've started to dislike Team Captains, MUT Master, and Level Master. A lot.
In the case if Level Master and MUT Master especially, it mostly locks you into using that card for most of the year. Obviously you have the option to not use them, but when you dont you're putting yourself at a disadvantage. This isnt fun. It's an incredible disappointment to see a MUT master, Level master, or offering of team captains that you arent interested in because you know those guys are going to be on your team all year round.
Especially for theme teams. I ran into this last year as well, I would have Bobby Wagner, Shazier, Tatupu, and Bosworth. Yknow who was my #1? In that specific case, I love Shazier. I could have chosen a different team captain, sure, but Shaz is awesome. Not to mention getting any other team captain would just mean demoting another guy that I wanted at that spot. This year, if the Seahawks are blessed again in the MLB department, I dont want Sam Mills, this guy I have zero attachments to, being my #1 MLB by default.
Hell, I dont want Sam Mills at all. I would want Ray Lewis, Patrick Willis, etc. But these cards have a way of just winning the spot by default until much later in the year when OVR doesnt matter.
Finally, MOST importantly, I DON'T WANT TO SEE THE SAME EXACT PLAYERS ON EVERY OPPOSING TEAM. I dont want to see Andre Johnson/Sam Mills on every single team. I dont. Torry Holt/Tillman was boring enough seeing every single game until May this year.
Would you seriously not prefer a team captain for every team? Multiple mut masters? Multiple level masters? Just a simple idea.
Edit: knew this would be downvoted to hell. People like free and easy cards.
Edit 2: apparently I broke even again? Interesting
