Combinator Cards

To begin.... The combinator cards are a great idea. They have the opportunity to mix up the game and make it more enjoyable. Some ideas I have to help make them even better are included below. To begin, I'm a Controls / Software Engineer turned business so I tend to think about the customer side while trying to keep the implementation side in view.

* Increase the probability to get Combinator cards (downside the Whales will pick them all up; So you could limit how many Combinator's a player can obtain; significant software change but would be great for the game)
* Reduce points needed to upgrade cards. I spend a fair amount of money on the game and only have one combinator card in my lineup because it ended up being a huge investment to do so. 500k plus PP. Most users can't afford that. Getting variability in the game would be better if you lowered the cost and I'm confident you'd have alot more players spending PP to do so if prices were reasonable

* Possibly make the Combinator cards unique players so you can only get them if you get the Combinators. To do so you need to lower the entry price for a Combinator and allow players to sell them at Market price. The minimum value sale reduces probability significantly that they will get traded in the game which reduces OOTP revenue opportunities.

* Create a guide that helps explain which card types, card values, etc give boosts. Players have to spend alot of PP to get Combinators upgraded and it would help the user base immensely. I know Whales will take advantage of this, but it could also help users. I'm working on a bronze team with some Combinators and it's difficult to know how to upgrade

Last request which is not related to Combinators is Team Chemistry needs explained better. Best example I'll give is in Madden when you do an Offensive Line boost with players together it tells you the boost for all players. Users pay to get the Team Chem boost and should have guidance on how it helps them.
