Thanks for those baselines. Looks like I got really unlucky with my initial players. Hopefully I can find someone on the market.

Wow those are some crazy stats. I didn't have anyone near that in my draft class.

I guess I'm gonna hit the FA market and see if I can get a decent team by tomorrow. If not I'll hit the bankrupt/reset button hard



I managed to get a 12 yrs old African gosuTerran with 9,6 macro 7 micro vT 7,6 vP 7 Teamwork 7, Appearance 7, Endurance 7, Scouting 7, 2v2 7 but then his vZ is 1.4 so I've lost almost all TvZs =(
My immune system is so strong that I have to get AIDS just to be normal.

If you start out with absolutely shit players its not a horrible idea to

1) Go bankrupt and start over, chances are you'll get someone decent.

2) Pay 100 or 200 (at most) a day for a solid 2200-2300 ELO player. This 1 player can carry you to level 2 pretty easy (where you can use the market trade function to get better deals), as long as you just sit on 2000 ELO for you bad players. Don't pay the money and have players at 1700 ELO in your roster cause the average won't be high enough.

So, I picked up a player who I think is pretty good, but now I'm $50 overbudget per day and I only have $500. Did I just screw myself?


Nope, you will make money in prizes and once you level up your sponsors will pay a lot more. Probably a good move. It depends on if the guy you picked up is actually good.

So his winrates are 84% and 79% and like 30% vs Zerg. So I found a new recruit with high vZ and teamwork and set them to practice partners and his stat went up by 1.1 last training cycle.


Yes, that's exactly what I do. Buy them cheap with one good thing like vP, with high dedication and teamwork, and pump that on him and use him to boost you race. Plus you can use them as snipers in team leagues if their other stats are decent. One of my guys has okay stats but 8.9 vZ and no Z can touch him.

vX is also extremely important. Almost all the top chars have like ~8.5/8 but really great vX, at that point macro and micro are much less important and a player with like 3 less micro can win if he has +1 vX.

I do the same thing but I find streamers with 1 good stat so they serve both as a training bitch and a source of income

How do you increase the amount of training hours a player does?

I have a player with dedication 9.3, but only 8hours training per day, where as I've seen other players with the same dedication but 18hours training per day.
Are you calling moi a dipshit?

teamhouse is +3 training time, at level 3 you can buy staff that increases training time, and sponsors. level 3 idra gives +5 hours.

Offer ridiculous salaries to a bunch of players and wait for the day to tick over, I guess.

How is popularity -> merchandising calculated?
I know that some guys get 50+ from 1 streamer witch 4 average popularity.
On the other hand I've put 6 streamers, have 8 average popularity, and got only 90 :/

Beware of high Salary players for low prices in the open market. I accidentaly bought someone for a ridiculous salary and a low buy out. Now I'm going to default on my debt and have to restart. Lesson learned though.

Edit: Putting my best players with low salary's up on the market for a low price so they don't get deleted and go to waste. Grab em fast. Put them all up for >1 hour

Merch income depends on your average popularity and your team level.

It does not depend on how many people set to "streaming," training streaming increases popularity, but if you have a 10 popularity then its useless.

Here's the formula alexhard linked us

$merchinc = round($merchmult*pow((($t['level']+1)*10),(1+(log($t['popularity']+1,10)))),0);
