Madden Ultimate Team | Vita Vea Highlights Ghosts of Madden MUT Drop
The three Ghosts of Christmas Limited Times (LTD) won’t come with the same fanfare of similarly released items, particularly Saturday’s Legends, but that actually might be a good thing for their price.
While the Saturday Legends might have been a bit lackluster given the stature of their NFL counterparts, the Ghosts of Madden drops have a bit more to give.
Russell Wilson might be a bit disappointing, but Vita Vea and Ty Law seem to hold their own against the slate of previously released cards.
Seahawks’ theme teams will certainly enjoy the new Wilson, and there’s enough positive statistics to make Wilson a contrarian play if you’re looking for a different quarterback, but it’s tough to rationalize spending north of 500,000 coins just to be “different” at such a critical position.
At 93 Speed and 96 Zone Coverage, Law shouldn’t be burned often on any sort of deep passes, and he has enough man coverage and pressing abilities to act as a solid slot cornerback if need be.
With the likes of Jaguars’ Jalen Ramsey, Marshon Lattimore, and Ronde Barber overdue for updates soon which will likely outclass Law, it might behoove players interested in improving their cornerback depth to wait until the official release of the Playoffs promo, which is expected to be announced next week, but it’s hard to argue Law’s lack of merits with anyone looking to make an immediate upgrade.
Rob Gronkowski joins a suddenly loaded list of available tight ends, a position which has seen three 95 or higher overall options released in the last 24 hours. Gronk isn’t the fastest, but he’s easily the best run blocker of the three, and through the use of Power-Up can reach a serviceable 85 Speed.
Perhaps more importantly, he’s a fairly affordable elite option, as the lack of need for “snow”, Gronk’s current quicksell currency, has kept him and the likes of other underwhelming Ghosts at a reasonable enough price, even if a player merely wanted to try out the item.
