      I think one thing that would improve the value is ditch the side plates and put more wrestlers cards in packs something like a pack gets you
      1 random faction cosmetic (ditch the rarities from these)
      3 random bronze wrestlers
      3 random silver wrestlers
      2 random gold wrestlers
      1 wrestler that has the chance to be gold or higher and deluxe packs you could guarantee this would always be higher than gold
      or
      1 random faction cosmetic (ditch the rarities from these)
      3 random bronze wrestlers
      2 random silver wrestlers
      2 random gold wrestlers
      1 wrestler that has the chance to be emerald, sapphire or ruby (with guaranteed ruby in deluxe packs)
      1 random wrestler of amethyst or higher (with improved odds in deluxe packs)
      would make it feel more like a traditional TCG and more like im getting value for money/points
      You could also add in that for a steepish but reasonable cost the option to convert a card to a persona card or expand on the evolution cards that once you full evolve it the card becomes a persona card

      I have had Surfshark for almost 2 years now. It's great. Great video as always. One question , when will they release the arena for Wrestlemania 40 ? I do have the 40 years of wrestlemania pack and everything else available. Also I never have played my faction. I just don't like the mode. I also have NBA 2k as well. But don't do my team. Same issues.

      I wonder, Mr. L.A. Knight in 10 years, have you ever played _WWE SuperCard_ ? It is like 99% card collecting and battling, and while there is some stuff in there that can make it feel P2W, I’ve never felt the need to spend 1± in it since playing from day 1, nearly a full decade ago, on August 14, 2014.

      here's an idea that (IMO) would be super-hilarious if you decide to do it= y'know how you've done those skits playing both the booker and the guy in charge of storylines within WWE Central in Connecticut? how about something similar but at either Visual Concepts HQ or 2K Games Studios, with a consumer-sensible programmer and a "shareholders-pleasing" main director discussing these subjects, with the director making excuses like: "well, the players can always grind it out guaranteeing that they'll always be playing our game... or they can hook up their credit card and voila; they get what they want, our shareholders' pockets grow and everybody's happy! win-win, am I right"... something like that! how about it Matt; good enough for a skit?

When it's time to make gameplay improvements, they'll ignore them and put more development time and energy into my faction. I've been down this road before.

    I tried to be optimistic about myfaction this year...that was my first mistake. The greed of this mode has gotten worse DESPITE adding persona cards. Theyre forcing people to spend more money to unlock what are just alternate attires of characters already in the game. Other than the Sheamus they give you, there isn't that much different as it is.

    2% is nonsense.
    Persona Cards should imo be in towers. The towers we can do whenever we feel like it.
    Some of us have time restrictions in our lives. We can play when we can play.
    Our game time is precious and we want to enjoy that time.

    Persona cards are cool in concept but kinda bad in execution. Most of them are too difficult or expensive to unlock, you can't edit the attire of the models at all (so I couldn't put the retro Sheamus for example in his WWE 2K15 gear), and the Sheamus one still as far as I know doesn't have the wrist tape in his entrance

    The Punches and Promos program is the biggest slap in the face 2k has given us yet. A 2% chance to pull the card needed to get Roman is absurd, especially considering every pack before this had a way higher chance at getting a ruby and this pack has like a 4% for a ruby. I’m not even going to consider getting these persona cards with those absurd odds

    My thing so far is that they're putting in some persona cards that are just..not needed, IMO. Like a 4th Roman with a new hairstyle? Honestly, who cares lol. If you need that, DL it from CC. This new Rock? It's completely silly. Trick Williams gets a persona card when he's only been there like 2 years? Yet, no masked Kane? Big Poppa Pump? Goddess version of Bliss? Even something really cool and out there like a 1992 Summerslam version of Ultimate Warrior. There's so many other things they could be doing, but instead they're like "Here's a 3rd Rock for you"...or "here's a 4th Roman for you"..just don't need it.

    The idea of the Persona cards is actually a good idea. But the way 2K is going about it is a joke! The silly thing is ....these cards would keep the game fresh and keep people coming back and actually extend the games life. I'd love a Retro Kane in the Persona cards or to be able to unlock the "Demon" Finn Balor that's there. The cards/pack prices are ridiculous and that puts me off trying. Also in the live events I hate having to do the same match 4-5 times to get the proper reward. It's just not fun. The grind just isn't fun and is actually alienating the fan base further.

    Great video Matt, I am a MyFaction fan (since day-oneish), and what concerns me is the duplicate value for punches and promos, as everything gets a duplicate value of 750MFP. However from previous packs Rubys were in excess of 10,000MFP, so this really helped with the grind. There is also an Umaga Amethyst card as well which I need an Emerald Undertaker to complete, but it does look like it will hit the card market this weekend, so I may have grinded enough by then to purchase the last remaining requirement for the Umaga card. I used to be a Universe fan but I hate the Rivalry actions, especially when it comes to PLEs. We should have actions for start a new rivalry (i.e. steal championship) rather than just increase ranking up the tables.

    Some other bad aspects about this pack series, Punches & Promos, that I wish would get brought up in the spotlight:
    - The duplicate card refund is bugged for this pack. For example, getting a duplicate Ruby card in a series 1 pack returns 10k to 15k mfp (currency to buy packs), allowing you to almost buy another pack (they go around 14k to 19k mfp). ALL cards from this series grant ONLY 750 mfp, even the Amethyst rarity ones that would normally refund 20k to 25k mfp.
    - The deluxe pack has the 3% chance to roll the amethyst card, however the basic pack (discounted pack with lower chance) shows the chance as "
