I’ve been asking since HLM24, but I’d LOVE to see Hot/Cold Streaks. IRL we see this happen often, think EP40 not playing like a 90 OVR anymore or Keifer Sherwood being an 80 OVR and being on a hot streak and jumps to an 84 OVR. Would add a level of storytelling and randomness that the game lacks, currently the only thing that is random is player growth, so if you are not invested in prospects there is NO randomness at all.
Imagine being a rebuilding team, a random 78ovr player scores in 5 straight games, jumps to and 81, stays hot and jumps to and 83. You trade him for something decent (since he’s and 83) and he either continues to play well and keep his overall or he drops back down if he goes on a cold streak. The acquiring team gambles on if the hot streak will stay, and the selling team “sells high”. Again, think Keifer Sherwood. Older player, grows out of nowhere and is traded for multiple assets on a bet from the Sharks that he will remain that player.
Thoughts?
