Yeah I don't see the point in buying team packs before I have almost full teams. Because you can get a bronze card...
The more teams you have the more options you have and less fatgue your best riders are under.
We're talking about getting the expensive Team Packs  I think they are only good if you are just missing one or two riders from a team and know exactly what you'll get.
Oh I get it now.

These crashes suck... crashing at 10 kms from the finish is just wrong... |

I gave up and threw 10 euros at Cyanide 
Got my 3 extra team slots and 3 gold packs, with 5 cyans to spare. I got Van den Broeck, Voeckler, Bettancur and Albasini. Not bad but I really need more sprinters. Oh I also got a silver sprinter with SPR 78... don't remember who. |

I have Bos/Appollonio/Van Hummel/Boeckmans/Debuschere/Chicchi/Oss as best sprinters. All silver cards.
And still I can do several 2nd-5th.
Just take two of those and a high flat rider. Perfect are Eisel or Phinney but it also works with Navardauskas/Engoulvent/Voigt etc. |

Yeah but if you get a good guy playing with Greipel, Sagan, Cav, etc., you won't stand a chance.
I have Viviani and Degenkolb, but sprinters seem to spend more energy in a stage than other types of racers, they they only get to 100 after two days. |

It`s not sprinters.
All riders with regeneration of 70+ will come to 100 again when just used once a day.
Riders with less than 70 just reach 99.
I think riders with less than 65 can`t even reach 98 and stay at 98.
Marcato is one of my gold riders and he also is at 99 after one day...

What I noticed is that after a stage a guy like Degenkolb will have energy 84 and a guy like Rolland will have 87 for example.
From what I can tell, they almost always recover 15 points per day, that's why Degenkolb will be at 99 and Rolland will be at 100.

Weird that my first sprint win was with Demare (against someone using Cavendish) but yet still to fail winning a sprint with Greipel 
I was so close but there was a hill and attacks I had to stop on myself otherwise there would be a sprint for 3rd place. So I got second because AI Kittel overtook from no where Greipel at the front with headwind.

Just completed my first team with Novo Nordisk.
17/17 All bronze team.
Might actually try to reach something decent with just those riders. |

I'll start buying bronze packs again when I get one more gold sprinter. I have lots of mountain/hill guys.
The more complete team I have is still missing like 3 guys. |

I just gave in and bought 50 cyans. I am full of shame.
I decided for my sense of pride not to use it to gt cards, just a few extra team slots. I still have 40 of them and nothing to do with them.

No need to feel shame. If you like something, support it if you can |

Bought a gold pack this morning. A bit more luck with those this time. Finally got 2 gold cards instead just one and with Goss and Pozzovivo I have chances in sprints now as well.
Plus Matthews as silver card, which was new. |

Legendary packs are pay to win. Buying a couple of gold packs with cyans just saves you time. I see nothing wrong in that. |

Bought a gold pack today. Got Cavendish. Hell yeah. If the train for the sprints was decent, it just got even better. |

I got my first sprint win with Greipel finally But the 1st sprint win was with Demare but good that I can win with Greipel anything XD
Gold pack I could effort now.. Demare (I already have).. :S
And got into a nice bug:
There was a course and after the first finish passage it showed a finish cam (stopping at the finish line) and going to helicopter camera showed they are still riding but are standing still at the finish (like everytime there is a finish) but the players said everythings fine.. oO

I had that bug and it wouldn't finish the game despite all but rider being over the line and the one that wasn't should have been out of time but it never confirmed he was even after the in game clock got past 10 hours of waiting after the finish.
