Perfect Team First added to OOTP19 late last year, OOTP20 expands on this revolutionary addition to OOTP. Tens of thousands of teams from all around the world compete in the multi-level online universe for the ultimate goal, reaching and winning a Championship in the coveted Perfect Leagues. The second version of Perfect Team adds a number of new features: About 3000 cards are available on launch day, about 800 of the new 2019 MLB Live cards plus about 2200 historical cards (many of which have been re-rated or are entirely new) Weekly content updates with new cards, all year round The 2019 MLB Live cards will receive weekly rating updates throughout the regular season, based on real life performance For the historical cards we have replaced the "Top WAR" category with "Hardware Heroes", players who won major awards in a year; additionally the "Historical Legend" category cards are now based on a new rating algorithm, which takes the peak performances of a single year for each of the rating categories. Card odds will be the same as in OOTP 19. However, historical cards are now a bit more common (3 out of 10) than in OOTP 19 (2.5 out of 10) for cards rated 60 or higher. There is now one league level below Bronze, called "Iron", taking the total number of levels to 6 At least 4 teams will be promoted & relegated each week A number of smaller changes have also been made: more auction house features, a Watchlist, better sorting/filtering, a proper league history report for past leagues you played in, and the ability to view info/standings/stats from other leagues in the universe Additional features, including a tournament mode and collection missions, will be added after the initial launch
