I'm not sure how to handle my streamers. Dedicate all the practice to streaming and don't care about their other stats or balance the practice a bit?

I just want...to win something

my team has made a grand total of 3$ in 2 1/2 days. I have the talent and potential but i'll probably go bankrupt seeing as my merch isn't going up even with 4 streamers of 10 popularity that i fought to buy. gahhhh

Definately no, you get money for popularity and not for streaming! Streaming raise your popularity but if they have 9 or 10 it will give no results, better train them because some of the streamers have pretty good 1v1 stats.

But popularity can go above 10, so I was thinking about him really pushing my average popularity.. The thing is I'm not sure whether he will ever win anything. He's quite decent but only has an average dedication and will probably never be good enough to really win something.

It can, but when I put streaming on my 10popularity streamers (2 out of 3 skills in training) it was going down anyway. Try yourself if you don't believe...

how fast is one "sc2 manager year"? I got a player 3 days ago when he was 9, I look now and he's 11? WTF?

I thought about that as well, has anybody an answer to this?

Btw, contracting a 9 year old kid, shame on you

I just picked up a 10 year old, quite expensive, but with 8 Macro/Micro, 7vAllX, 7 Dedication.. I'm hoping he'll be my star for the considerable future. The younger kids seem better buys than the older ones really.

If you are dead-stuck, the best option IMO is to stop tourneys for now. They will only drop your ELO since your guys are too weak to compete on a serious level.

Set their "dedication" to top training priority for a few days, then when it's bumped, start training up other weak stats (micro,macro, vx's first). Set a couple of your weaker popularity guys to streaming to boost popularity so you re-build your finances (it takes time to calibrate the merch income). You're going to have to wait it out, now way around it.

For the love of god, if your team sucks, don't try to make up for it by snatching up a bunch of free agents if you already have no other solid players. If the agents are a bust and don't win any tournies (they rarely do straight out of the gates), you're left holding their salary and a nigh unbreakable 30 day contract.

Being patient really turns this game around. While you wait, I'd suggest tweaking your strategies if you're looking for stuff to do. Test them out in practice games against teammates with similar stats to see if it's the strategy or the player that is winning the game.

Damn... Free Agent I assume? Really surprises me that you got that kid without other guys noticing and bidding.

Yeah, Free Agent. Others did notice, I just (probably) have over extended myself to get him. It took a bidding war upto $500 to get him. Thankfully, I made about $1500 yesterday with my starter players in the Wood Team League, So i've got a bit of a bankroll to prop me up whilst i get his Endurance (0.7) up to a stage where he can compete.

They guy above your initial post paid only 10 bucks and I confused you two, nearly droped from my chair... I guess 500 is still a good deal if you can manage to survive till he starts to bring home the big money.
