This will drastically reduce the number of pages necessary to page through the auction house and also eliminate the collusive sales where a random iron gets sold for 15,000 PP's to transfer funds to another team. Also, quickselling cards would return the current high bid to the seller rather than the arbitrarily low prices currently. This would improve the viability of the packs only strategy.
  • Permanent reduction in the prices of Diamond and Historical packs, probably to gold packs too. Packs only should be a viable strategy, it's probably the most fun way to play the game but at the current pack prices it's almost impossible to field a competitive team. And don't worry, if there are "too many" of a particular card for sale in the AH, my change to the AH rules will lower the sale prices to make sure that it's not profitable to just keep buying packs and selling the cards off.
  • Packs should guarantee a certain minimum total of OVR points - say, Standard 330, Gold 375, Historical 390, Diamond 425. And should there be Silver packs? Say 360 minimum and a guaranteed silver?
  • The PT universe should be segregated into 4 quadrants.
    • Quadrant 1 - FTP - no teams allowed that have spent any cash on PP's.
    • Quadrant 2 - FTP and "theme" teams - Single franchise entries, entries linking 3-5 franchises, etc. Good for "fun teams" for the guys running one team with cash, or tourneys, or a challenge mode theme.
    • Quadrant 3 - $100 per team limit - Once you spend more than $100 on PP's you get bumped to Quadrant 4.
    • Quadrant 4 - anyone can volunteer, but once you go in, yo can never leave. And if you spend over $100, you're in for good.
This post is exactly the reason why I hate perfect team. nothing against you, I just hate the fact that it's a thing
