THE CLUBS:
The ForceThis team will be consistent. All of the players are between Tier 7 and 9. Some players ended up being a steal while others maybe a little more than expected. All in all, this team is one that could end up going either way or staying right in the middle, only time will tell. Mike also invested a lot in his team this season only leaving 1 nohham in the bank. If he wants to make some transfers, he's going to need some wins under his belt.
Alpha HuntersAnother manager that believes that balance is key. All but one player was between Tier 7 and 9 but unlike the previous manager, they do have one player in a lower Tier (11). Will this affect them in the standings or will they be able to pull out enough wins to run to the top of the table?
F.C. NazwaThis team has a few more parts to add but will no doubt be lead by Sułtan Kosmitów. How this manager decides to use him may be the make or break for this season. Most feel like he overpaid (Darkpie was only 1 nohham more) but it was early in the auction and this manager decided it was worth every nohham.
Cat AttackThis as well has some holes to fill in the last round. However, unlike the other teams, they are lacking a true #1 player to lead them through the season. They have the lowest ranked players in terms of tiers, and with not many options left in the last round, may find themselves struggling this season. Luna better hope someone plays better than they were ranked or start making some transfers. This manager (currently) has over half their balance left, is this the plan? Regardless, this team has something to prove.
JingoWe all knew there would be one team and this team is it. j willy decided to put all his nohhams in a few highly skilled players in hope to run the table. However, he will still need to hope for a few wins from the other players in order to secure the promotion spot. If promoted though, he holds 2 top players already, giving him a leg up the other managers might not; but first he needs to win this Group B. J willy still has almost half his games left to fill (20), so this round will be critical for him as well.
VentusCade was able to secure a top ranked player for the cheapest price (Pulsey at 23 nohhams). However unlike the other managers with top players, Cade was able to secure a pretty decent core group. It will be interesting to watch to see how the season plays out and where he will use in his precious 5 games.
General Comments:This season will be interesting to watch as Managers have tough decisions to make. The auction rounds are almost done but now comes placing those pieces into a winning team. With two clearly different strategies, balance and power, I can't wait to see who triumphs and promotes to Group A. during the auction there were a lot of close bids. If managers had bid one more or one less, their team could have looked very different. I am excited to see how everything will play out and how managers will use their players to craft victory... or utter defeat!
Some players to watch:
- Players that went at or almost double base price: Python's Koala, TBest, Death, Noobster11, TeamGuns
- Top ranked players: Darkpie, Sułtan Kosmitów, JV, Pulsey
- Players that were a "steal": Blortis, Benjamin628, Darkpie
