Which means, it is easier to trade a player that has 4 games left for one with 5 than one that has 3 left for one with 4 etc. etc. Basically, the fewer games a player has left, the harder it is to trade him for someone else to get extra games out of him. This is especially true for players with a high salary. So what I suggest is never let a player get below 3 games unless you intend on keeping him for the duration of the season. For example, on my team I have 3 IM players (Happy, Younghwa and LosirA); this week I will likely be trading 2 of them (depending on who starts for IM). So if you have happy or younghwa, now is a good time to trade them (unless one is starting). Their values would drop to 8ish (younghwa) and 8.something (happy) if they didn't play (assuming IM wins). So yea, now is a very good time to trade them for someone you intend on keeping that has 2-3 games left. sC isn't a bad choice (since he has will likely see a ton of play based on their remaining opponents). TheStC isn't a bad choice (since he has 4 games left and oGs has shown they want to use him). Ganzi will probably see a ton of use so he's not a bad idea. Anyways, point is, don't let anyone drop below 3 games unless you plan on keeping them. It's too hard to maintain a decent trade value at that point. | ||

Anyways, point is, don't let anyone drop below 3 games unless you plan on keeping them. It's too hard to maintain a decent trade value at that point. I agree with this some what. What this really says is look at the schedule when you trade. What you have to keep in mind is that every player's trade value drops as they play, and trade value only matters relative to each other, so this oh you have to get rid of a player around x number of games left isn't too useful IMO, what you really want to do is get rid of players that have less games left than other good options while you still can. This is why most people should have gotten rid of FXO players by week 3 or 4 because all the other teams have 3-4 games left and FXO only have 2-3. This is also why right now it's crucial to pick up someone like Naniwa or Thorzain if you think they will do well because they have 5 matches left while others have around 3. You should always try to trade UP the number of matches that a player gets to see play if possible, unless you are very sure a player will dominate immediately and get a huge boost in value. But it's not just how many matches a team plays, you have to estimate how often a player will see play. For example oGs has 4 games left, that means if you have someone from ST or TSL who have 3 games left it might seem like a good idea to trade for oGs. But the truth is oGs has a deep roster so any particular player you pick may or may not get used, so the fact that oGs has more games to play doesn't really help. This will get trickier toward the end of the league as well, since every team will have 1-2 series left, and the trade value drop off becomes more significant. | ||

The question is,which minor player should I get??? I think IceCream is a decent choice,he could be used by Zenex in one of the next matches. The only two people that stands out to me at that value is IceCream and Nuclear (asdfOu), both aren't bad choices. | ||

All ur options to trade him off are terrible though, polt MC bomber killer DRG lol. I have no idea how the hell HongUn is still code S and round of 8 non the less. Every single one of his game is unimpressive yet some how he wins. I don't know how but apparently he can win games so maybe wanna trade him off for someone that won't see play for a while, not sure who though. | ||

I totally agree, I'm actually getting a bit scared about having him on my anti, feels like a Killer Lite situation, although I miraculously managed to dodge that bullet. | ||

GuMiho I'm going to keep until the end, I think, I'm pretty convinced that he's the best fOu player to get if sC is out of reach. I don't expect July to get played a lot. | ||

MC, you might want to trade, ogs is a deep team, so he might not see alot of playing time Nuclear, Taeja, I would say trade, but theres nothing good you can trade them for Puzzle, hold on to him, really nothing you can do, but he's not bad  Anti team is pretty good except for NaNiwa, pretty good chance your going to get screwed over since F. United is a small team, and theres really nothing you can trade him up for | ||
