To get 99 OVR Dark Matter Gary Payton, you must collect 3,000 cards in MyTeam mode. Dark Matter Gary Payton is a version of Season 4 and is the first card 99 in total in NBA 2K22. Collecting it isn’t the easiest task, but here’s how to do it quickly.
Card packs can be purchased in the MyTeam store, but they can cost a lot of MyTeam or VC coins, but cards can also be earned just by playing different games in MyTeam. For example, each single-player Domination game can be completed on All-Star difficulty to earn three stars, which reward three Domination packs and a guaranteed player. Going through the Domination game ladder will earn you a lot of cards, with some pretty good ones along the way.
Another way to collect lots of new cards is to go to the Rewards tab in My Team and use My Team tokens to unlock players in each rarity level. Lower tier players are very cheap to buy and will simply add to cards in your collection.
With the rapidly growing NBA 2K22 MyTeam collection with new cards released each season, players can continue to collect new cards and not end up with too many duplicates. However, at some point along the way to collecting 3,000 cards, you may run into an obstacle where you are out of luck with lots of duplicates drawn. At that point, it’s a good idea to check your collection, find some missing cards, and then head to the Auction House.
Try to buy the missing cards cheap first, because a rare card in the auction house can cost a lot of MT coins. Buying cards at the auction house is a great way to complete your collection, but don’t forget to play enough to earn coins.
