How is your MyTeam going?

[zz21]

Post MyTeam progress here.

I've ran into some luck since the beginning of the year to the point where I've built 2 teams. One to be competitive and one for fun.




It's pretty obvious which is which. I would never have Jr and Dion in the bench if I wanted to win.

[Andrew]

Some fine squads there (WHITE MAMBA!). I need to get into some MyTEAM this year.

[zz21]

Now's definitely the time to get into it. You only have to play a few games to get most of the good players. All of the prices are really low on the market this year.

Picked up the new Amethyst Yao Ming for only 7k on the Auction House. Also picked up the Linsanity Jeremy Lin with those (now expired) challenges over the weekend, such a fun card.

I had a pretty lame lineup for most of the year, relying on duos for players to be halfway decent (aka Dunleavy + Jay Williams & CP3 + DeAndre Jordan). Opened one pack during the holiday for one of those guaranteed moments packs, and ended up with amethyst Westbrook.

Sold that for 80k on the AH, picked up the Ruby version and duo'd it with the Kawhi Leonard card. Then picked up Conley, Antetokoumpo, KAT, Fat Lever, and Porzingis with the rest. I still keep the historic Gerald Green in the lineup, he's usually good for at least one AO or poster.





Been trying to "work" the AH more. Trying to find badges for cheap and flip them for a small 500MT profit. When I'm done for the night I just do a quick search and list anything I grab for 24 hours. Hope for the best when I load up the next day. Like just now, make 1,000 on a rim protector badge, and 3,000 on a sapphire Draymond.

Finished both normal and Historic Domination, so you'd figure my squad is at least decent at the moment. Those reward players are worth their name. Too bad I got bored and switched back to simulation games with real NBA teams. Come to think about it, I haven't played any single online game in NBA 2k17.

[zz21]

Decided to go pick up Moments Westbrook


Just seemed right. The fact that he can shoot a little bit and he's one of the fastest players in the game helped ease the pain of spending 25k.

[JaoSming]

Damn he's down to 25k?

[zz21]

I actually saw one for 24k but I payed a little extra for one with more badges.

[zz21]

I CANNOT STRESS DOING DOMINATION ENOUGH.

The amount of mt I got just from all the packs they give (especially the badges in them) is actually insane. Looks like its time to start historic domination and get that Ben Wallace to round the team out.

Jao, please give a kiss to whoever juiced my domination packs for me.

[JaoSming]

dem NLSC hax are paying off

Just keep paying for my access to the secret forum and I'll keep the switch on.

[zz21]

Another step closer to completing my team.

(edit: I only decided to get Kobe because he is the closest thing to MJ for much less MT. I know for a fact an MJ will never be under 40k.)

My last few changes I'm looking to make are upgrading Horry to that new ruby Kevin Love, completing domination for Ben Wallace, and at some point upgrading Kyrie to his amethyst.

After that I can't really see too much I can improve on. It's crazy to me because I've never had even close to as good of a myteam as I do now. 2k really made it pretty easy to make a great team without spending a ton of vc.

[Andrew]

That's insane. Would you replace Waiters with anyone else, though?

[zz21]

I'm not too sure. His role on my team is to just stay in the corner and shoot. Ill probably pick up Allan Houston at some point just for nostalgic purposes. That would probably be the upgrade.

[Andrew]

That's definitely be a fine upgrade.

[Andrew]

Starting to get into it, managed to nab a couple of good players from the Auction House with minimal MT.



I also have LeBron, Iguodala, and Paul George Free Agent cards in reserve with a few games left on them, to break out when needed.

[zz21]

That Kemba is a really good player to start.

[Andrew]

Next step is improving the starting small forward. Like I said, I do have LeBron, Iguodala, and George, but they're all Free Agent cards, so right now I'm saving them for when I need to stack the lineup. I only have them for a few more games.

[zz21]

Upgraded Dion to the new Ray Allen as well. A Ray Allen with 97 3pt and 90 dunk. Crazy.

And while I opened the packs you get from domination...

Will definitely go towards my Kyrie/Love fund.

Half funded.

Save them for the end of historic domination. The CPU likes to cheat so you need all the help you can get.

[Andrew]

Very nice.

Definitely saving them for tough/frustrating challenges.

[R4zoR]

Just started it out aswell, got a few good snipes, when people were mass opening packs.

[Andrew]

So, despite the fact Ronnie said that there'd be no more limited quantity Locker Codes on the Season 2 finale of 2K TV...



Did I miss out? Of course I did, why are you even asking?

I swear it was gone in the first few seconds. I put it in pretty quickly and still didn't get it.

[Andrew]

On a brighter note, a code for a Paul George Moments Card came through via a newsletter they sent. Despite being advertised as a Free Agent Card, it's definitely a Moments Card. So while I will eventually lose my pre-order Paul George Free Agent card (95 Overall), I've boosted my lineup with an 86 Overall Moments version.

Also, I was able to use the same code in both my PC and PS4 copies of the game, so I didn't even have to choose. Still think the situation with the Kevin Love card kind of sucks, but they delivered more than they promised on the newsletter code, gotta give them that.

[zz21]

I'm selling off a lot of my more expensive cards. Cards are getting better for each new collection so I'll just sit on some MT for a while.

Also hoping for Kyrie winning either the 3pt contest or all-star MVP. Instant diamond if he wins.
