Wow, it's 8 seasons since my last match against the Hornets.
Unfortune circumstances did lead to no match in all those seasons, even when we were in the same conference.

Well, now we face up against and next season in Elite twice.

WOW, yeah i just noticed that.

the bowl will be a good game to watch i think, something for the fans to talk about in the off season, i just hope i come out the winner.

The elite league will be a bloodbath of spamming shotgun elite teams kicking my arse down the road to 0-16 and then back to the safety of Monarchs 1.

Good luck in bowl Jack6

i just noticed i got over 1000 in the ELO for the first time

Is it just me, or is the draft list very thin on potential good players?
Just sorted my wish list and I had problems selecting even 16 players, which MIGHT be interesting. No homerun player as it looks.
Thanks god-of-RZA there is the premium youth acadamy.

I'm glad someone else was thinking the same thing. So I tried figuring out why.

>49 strength... 13 both last draft and this draft
>49.5 speed... 12 last vs, 10 this
50 intelligence...10 last vs 9 this one (& 1 guy 49.6)
>40 teamwork... 25 last vs 27 this
Two traits... 8 last vs 4 this
No traits... 34 last vs 46 this draft
>45 strength and >45 speed... 8 last vs 7 this
Draft age 19 or 20... 44 last draft vs 34 this draft

Other than traits and maybe ages it looks like top end physicals exist, we just got an unfortunate distribution of those physicals aligning with each other?

I put "defeat the Space Kraken" in my 2020 objectives, so I have a lot riding on the next couple of seasons.

With results like that added to your resume, there's no way they won't give you that goop candle for your cubicle!

The thing I don't like on the drafties:

Since Premium YA does give you easily an average 25 on all needed skills at age of 20 with exp at 2.5 to 4.0 drafties have to be at least in that ball park +/- maybe 1 average skill point. Plus they need to have the right combination on the fixed skills, like INT and TW.

But we have a lot of fast guys with low TW and/or low INT.
Those with low TW do often have low strength -> not good for DL.
Those with high INT have often low strength -> max SF, not really good for LB.
Same for high strength, so no good OL material.

IF they fit the requirements, at least my own one, they are usually older than 19, so after the rollover they are 21+, but their skills are not in the ballpark of the YA players, some do only fit on the str/spe/int/tw part, but I would have to convert the WR into a LB or a SF has to become an OL or something like that. So they do not only lack the skills in skale, they do also lack in at least 1-2 needed skills, which does lower the average even further by less career playing time.

The draftclass in Elite League is also pretty weak this season... no monster player and not many with potential
