TIER LADDER

What each tier is worth

Every rung grants the same effects — this ladder changes how much, not what.

MECHANICS

The same at every tier. Madden 27 gives this ability one set of effects and changes how strongly they apply, rather than adding new ones at silver or gold. Triggers and shutdowns are shown at every tier because the data does not say which tier gates them — not because the game treats them the same.
