Yep, Poaching should definitly be removed, only usable on Players with less than 6days of contract or get a 1% chance.

Yea I'm totally thinking it may be better to avoid leveling up until they sort out the poaching nonsense.

I'm seeing more and more of it and it sounds ridiculous.

Been sitting nicely at level 0 unable to level up because of my low ELO, I have 1 ace, 2 decent players, and 1 on the cusp of being a decent player. So far been able to enter the Wood Team Tournament and take finals/top4 nearly every time I try for the last few days, worked up a few k in bonuses. Worked nice because before I only had 2 solid players, finally getitng a third decent player from free agency was such a blessing. Been trying to get a few more decent players, but I'm afraid to level up into the next level because then I won't have my cash source anymore. Tasteless sponsorship is up in 1 day so I will see what sort of sponsor I can grab.

Keeping my eye out for young talent I can start training hardcore with for the future because once I bump up to level 1, I'm not winning anything again for awhile!

just as a question. what do you look for when you try and find "decent" players.
like what actually matters when two players compete with each other.

Macro - Builds more stuff
Micro - Better in battles
vX - Better later game battles
Scouting - Better .. scouting
Endurance - Can play more games in a row and restores stamina quickly
Dedication - Training gain

Are the things I look for.

Ya, but most level 3 teams have far less money than level 4 teams, and the wiki states that you can't poach teams that are lower level than you.

Unless he makes you $800+ dollars a day in tournament winnings, I would advise against that ><

Less money implies you have players earning less money. Players earning less money are easier to poach.

Seems like neither of you stopped to think; wait maybe a level 3 will poach ANOTHER level 3?! zomg. No that can't be it. Holy shit no way, lets ignore that I said in response to the guy saying level 3s earn less money that earning less money means you're easier to poach. No fucking way.

Lets also ignore the two level 3s who are among the richest in the game.

I definitely agree that poaching needs to be limited in some sense.

So I tried to solve all of my age related problems by signing a 9 year old with 8 dedication and decent stats. I drastically overspent ($400) and can't really afford it.

But whatever, no risk no reward
