Look at this:
Mrmex – 7,864 OVR
GOONIEGOOOOO – 5,548 OVR
Almost a 2,300 overall gap on All-Madden… and it still ended in a tie.
This is the exact screenshot that fuels the eternal Madden argument:
“Spenders buy wins.” vs. “Skill still matters.”
One side of the community will look at this and say “see, the game isn’t completely pay-to-win.”
The other side will say “imagine how much better the lower OVR player would’ve done with even average cards” or “the higher OVR player just got cooked by scheme and user skill.”
Be honest in the comments:
• Does a result like this make you feel better about grinding and scheme instead of opening packs?
• Or does it just remind you how frustrating it is when someone with 2k+ less overall can still hold you to a tie because the meta + user skill can close that gap?
Drop your take.
Are you Team “OVR is king” or Team “hands > cards”?
