Just remember, with great power comes great responsibility (responsibility to maybe share some TOTY love with the less fortunate, nudge nudge).
Final Words of Wisdom (and Encouragement)

So, enjoy the grind, celebrate the small victories (like packing a decent silver player!), and who knows, you might just end up with a TOTY gem in your squad. Just don't break the bank (or your sanity) in the process!
