Team got promoted to lv1, my entire roster is filled with 1600-2000 baddies. (2000 only because they haven't gotten any games yet as tournaments gets filled up)

I was doing decent with tasteless funding but now that I've levelled up my only option is redtube. I'd rather not bite the bullet but without any other option I'll be flat broke in a week.

Hell I don't even know why I got upgraded, I thought you needed an average elo ranking of 2000 to become lv1. I'm at sub 1900.

How do sats like that even get generated?

Use him to make money get Day9 as a sponsor or something :D.

I should probably start making my own strats got multiple players between 2000-2200 and im lvl 1...

But I dunno what to use ><. Any tips to strats? Or should i just give my players time to rest and do a bunch of ingame practice games to try out new strats.


Read the posts above.. We're trying to figure that out, but there are quite a few problems. Guess what you need the most now is luck.

So apparently the vX matchups for your players are really, really important. I was wondering why I kept losing to players with slightly worse stats, turns out some of my teammates are garbage versus terran. I'll have 80% winrates in the other matchups and 50% v terran, so instead of focusing on more micro/macro I'm focusing on boosting all matchups to 6+.

edit: fuu just got 2-1'd out of the quarterfinals of two tournaments because of terrans

The "top" tier of skills is usually the following;

Macro
vX
Dedication
Endurance

those are all necessary in direct games while the other skills are mostly supplements (some more valued then others), but unless you have those 4 relatively high, your player is going to have a hard time.

Even this game thinks terran is op, top 10 ELO 7 terrans, 2 zerg, 1 protoss.

That being said, who else thinks is stupid that only EU,NA,KR have good lans. I don't want to pay $500-$1500 to send my african player to a different country just yet, even though he is 2500+ ELO.

Agreed, my players all have all of those pretty high except vX, and they almost only lose in vX. I'd say micro is also pretty important, my best player is actually 7.6 macro 9.5 micro. But yeah, I definitely overlooked vX in the beginning.

To me it seems that young players (<18) with high dedication and decent macro/micro/vX are going to be the best players. The training seems to increase pretty quickly (especially if they have a high hidden talent rating) that having a low skill now won't matter too much in a week, as they will be substantially better. Winning immediately obviously can yield huge profits and a better team in the long run, but so can picking up good future talents to build on.

Personally, I'm super happy with my team. I have 6 players, the oldest being 23, and I am in the top 10 average ELO. I don't have an absurd super star player but my guys usually win at least 2-3 rounds per tournament, and I frequent the top 4 with a few players. If you have a player with decent micro, multitasking, and scouting, you can probably pull off a drop or two in a strategy.

In terms of sponsors, I prefer the ones that give extra training time. Since my players are younger, the extra time be more beneficial long term since they will have a longer stay at their peak when they can dominate the upper level tournaments.

My pool at the start gave me one amazing player (24 years old) and the rest pretty garbage idra gg timings and yellow fevers. Since then I've dropped most of my guys and picked up a ton of entertaining streamers for 2 reasons.

1. Sponsorship money to pay for possible free agents in the future.
2. Increases the popularity avg on my team, I'm currently no1 avg popularity, and thus allows me to get high pop requiring sponsorships even though the stars of my team that participate in tournies are significantly under the pop requirement.

I think it's just simulating real events. We do need some SEA region tournies though...

Also, terrans are OP, always and in everything, forever!

Anyone else having troubles with a player who has higher micro than macro? I have player with like, 6 macro, 9 micro and 3-6 vX, it's decent imo, but I seem to have troubles finding a tactic that uses his micro to the max. Anyone else has any experience with this situation?

tried drops? I have a player like that, made him econ until about 5 min, then get army, then drop I think at 630 or 7.. usually kills 5-15 workers, then I continue to have him drop throughout the game to further his advantage

Cool! I'll really try that out, his multitask is really good as well! Stupid that I didn't think of it before! Thanks!

whats annoying is I get to the last round in an elitist asshole tournament. Lose in the finals 4:0 and end up actually losing 3 ELO after the tournament is done.
