Man as crazy as it sounds, born leader kinda sold me on Quinn just so he can replenish stamina for Kucherov and McDavid. That Makar is ridiculous though. This was a tough decision for me.
yup, building a holo now is really cheap tho, many 76 plus cards at around 1k if u snipe u could make a holo extra cheap. i bet new holo's coming out next week or so as well.
Makars first game for me: injured and out for game after getting rocked by Hedman. Then I got disconnected by EA halfway thru third in my last HUT champs game (for the 3rd time today) and ended up at 8 wins 😪
Im grateful for the extra week to make 87's but im ready for a Willy Nylander, Mats Sundin, and Miro Heiskanen update for my xfactors and holograms. Also hoping for new team builders.
i have connor and makar regular 90 and planning on getting regular 90 hughes and mack is that a good idea to round out my team instead of one ultimate?
Tough to say. 90s will be good for a few more months but then they will all be ur bottom line... that's if u a consistent player chasing msp every event.
Sleeves lineup question. I've got a pretty good team. 7 TOTY, 4 Holos, ASP, Dvorsky, 4 GoG players and I'm in a bit of a dilemma. I'm a big oilers fan and I've been seeing the SOTM draisaitl on the market more often now. He'd be a direct downgrade on basically everyone in my lineup but he's probably my favorite player. Advice please
I managed to actually go all in on this years TOTY with Ultimate Mack, Ultimate McDavid, and Ultimate Hughes. SOLID first line. I took Hughes over Makar after comparing their cards on HUT builder. Hughes has the edge, a slightly better card. I was a little worried about Quinns size but he has just enough strength to consistently knock players off the puck, just don't expect to smash anybody with him. That isn't happening. But if you are looking for an offensive D man with a ton of agility and puck control than Hughes is your guy.
Made mcdavid and mckinnon ulitmate toty card Just made hellebuyck instead of the defenders and hes been incredable. As a div 2 player he has made big saves which gave me the edge to win close games. Goalies dont make u better but can give u the edge in close games
@6661Daly i was using a 87 Martin brouder b4 and he was solid. Every goalie will still give up goals regardless how good they are. I dont see much issues with having all his abilities on and I can't say that it's caused any with toty hellebuyck. He does make alot of floppy saves thou but as long as he's keeping them out works for me. Sometimes I feel like I have to substitute goalies and playback up to refresh him. I know it's not a thing but it's a subjective mental thing I do
I thought the two green one timer with MacKinnon was hard. Then I saw “get 7 stick lifts with Keller.” It’s legit impossible to do in a period and OT unless you get lucky lol
@@stewartbridgman7345 A poke check is one thing... a stick LIFT? Totally something else lol. I've gotten damn good with them but even I end up slashing every now and again. Risk/reward technique for sure.
@@stewartbridgman7345 I know reading is tough for you, but I said stick lifts. I did not stick checks. Totally different things. Pay attention next time bud.
Do Goalies at least play better against AI oppenents rather than online? Sometimes i feel like even the AI skates past the defense and triple dekes my goalie for a goal, but i dont play a lot of online. Higher rated goalies in Wildcard, for me, seem to usually make a lot of great saves on breakaways, etc, but i don't have any of those in my regular collection. The one timers seem to be the only consistent problem i see them have, but i definitely dont play HC or very many top tier players, although ive played a few in WC i think...
@ makar is no where near the value as mac, makar has silver heatseeker all other abilities are sub par, he's also small. why not just spend a third of the amount and do holo orr which is just as good. making makar is not a good move. i would rather wait and get a taller defensive player with better abilities. if i had to choose makar or any of the holo defenders makar would be my last pick, and he cost 4 times more, make it make sense buddy...........
You've noted many times that making team of the year and team of the season goaltenders is only for the HUT rich. But thanks to this year's format and a lucky draw of a free Connor Hellebuyck nomination card, I *was* HUT rich since I only needed 3 87s! I didn't think I was going to be able to build anything this round! I've never built a goalie from these events before, so this is kind of exciting. Thanks for your help throughout the event!
@fate6535 oOOOf. Of course you are correct. Got so excited about my lucky draw that I wasn't paying enough attention 😕. Gonna build his full toty now out of penance, and staying no money spent 😁.
@@klausboop Ultimates are 10 more 87's plus his static 90 TOTY. So in total you are giving up 13 87's (if you have the winning nominee card), nominee card, and 1 90 when all is said and done. It's alot no matter how you slice it. But 87's will be obsolete at some point anyway and you are going to wish you traded them in for an Ultimate so if you have it DO IT. Your team will suffer for a little while but you'll build back and your Ultimate TOTY will be your golden goose.
Ive already got Mcdavid and Mackinnon made as F2P. Am working on Makar rn and possibly Helleybuck if I have anything left. Am maximizing everything I can this past month other than rivals.
@ ive had his team of the year last year and the year before, small guys like him fade quick buddy. ive played the mode every year its been out but what do i know rofl. go ahead........last year makar had truck and was miles better and still wasnt end game worthy.
I only have enough 87s to make one more ultimate TOTY player. Should I go for Makar or MacKinnon. I'm mostly focused on long term value rather than based on my current team.
@MrLobsien Sorry for that, it was in Sleeves video last week for week 1 toty, and I forgot how many. That was his recommendation for converting 80s. I assume that's the best unless something new came out. I haven't logged on to HUT yet after the content update.
I don’t think I’m gonna get enough for Hughes in time 😭 I have the 86 Hutson and 89 Bedsy but even those don’t get anywhere near the ~1,2 mil coins I’d need to make him
Do you think the more you quit games in Rivals or Champs the more it TILTS against you? I've been quitting games more than ever. Once the opponent gets the magnet pull of every rebound and loose puck, I"m done. Don't care if it's still a one goal game, not playing the gimmick shit.
sleeves i def can’t make hughes and makar but i can make one. i have makar 85msp and i gave 85 hughes toty base card. dont have any parayko or kiln just ASP idk what to do man
I can make Makar right now. But not going to. I'm going to save my 87s and/ until I have all the collectables. Sucks having collectables after the event.
@@teemanx3578 actually you can trade in your 87’s now and trade in your collectables after for the extra 87 and it won’t change anything and you get to play now with the card
Ohhhhh sleeves i see the problem with EA, the comments on ur video literally defend the outright lack of attention to this game and especially this mode. The fact they don’t explain, make the sets different and not the players in this set, is the reason NHL will never give more attention, because stupid fans wanna just argue with other fans in comments over who’s comment meant what when they’re just saying the cards are similar every year
Bro, please think logically and be consistent!! IF, all abilities activated could confuse a goalie, the same could happen to any other card with that many active abilities. For cards you all but immediately dismiss, you also immediately state how impactful the abilities could be on a goalie. Its almost like your really inconsistent argument for why “there cant be any tilt”.
My man, when someone hits a green one timer the goalie will literally move out of the way of the puck. Goalies are a mess and when you mix post to post and other animation based abilities I could see it making it worse. If you don’t agree then that’s fine!
people data mine all games now and go thru the code to find everything possible and the game has been data mined hard in past years to find out things before events, with that being said why has no one ever found code for ice tilt, because its not in the game buddy! take off your tin foil hat.........
@@trentdubs9990 sorry fool. Do some simple research and look it up. There was a class action lawsuit against EA for tilt and while EA had the case thrown out, code was absolutely provided and showed tilt existed. You think people have the simple ability to break EAs programming and coding?? If that were the case you could manipulate packs and a ton of other things. Me thinks you’re a simpleton who doesnt get this as much as you claim. You and your boy Sleeveless dont realize the simplicity of this. Hell, tilt is designed into the game…what do you think the different divisions represent and the different skill levels in SB? Rookie the same as superstar? If not, youre agreeing that simple code can be added to make it easier or harder to play against. All tilt requires is a minus 10 to all your attributes when a game starts or when you lead by X number of goals.

13 collects with 86 Hughes, considering how much you had to use to make him is insane.
Yeah man looking back that cover athlete event cost a lot and making Quinn upgrade as an 86 was a big cost, I totally agree
I know, it's bull sh$t
Yeah same cost as the makar who was an 85 overall cover. GREAT MATH SKILLS EA.
That card cost me more than a few thousand to make at the start of the game
A Toty that has a fantasy card is actually really nice
Man as crazy as it sounds, born leader kinda sold me on Quinn just so he can replenish stamina for Kucherov and McDavid. That Makar is ridiculous though. This was a tough decision for me.
