4. Belgrade Black Hand (18-2)

Also a 1QB team last season, their QB got rattled in the playoffs and threw 4 ints in a 3 point loss to Helsinki, clearly a big reason for their loss. This season they ditched Lance to a crappy team in a lower Oceania league and the two guys that make up 90% of their team brought in their own QBs. Talent is elite, depth is good, the only issue with this team is that they are a little too "inbred" for my tastes, meaning that there are really only two members of their team and its hard to improve and get new ideas and tactics when there are less brains at work. That wont matter of course because they still have excellent builds and great levels to bully around teams that just cant hang with their talent. Will be a top playoff team this season, but if other teams like Prague and Helsinki boost early, like they didnt last season, those could be losses this season, which they werent last.

Two people who actually know what they're doing > Any greater number throwing tactics and percentages at the wall until they stick.

I've been on plenty of teams, 95% of the extra brains at work have no idea what the numbers do or how the simulation operates.

Nice job Randy, keep up the great work!

Scotch Cocks pass blocking is better than you think. Check out our games against good teams from last season. Still very low hurry and sacks numbers.

Look who has even less than you, they are all in Zeta. But I dont take a lot of stock in numbers from Alpha or AAA teams. However, 4 sacks seems pretty good, but I also know your competition and it was a step down from what you will see this season. Best of luck to yall though.

That is also entirely possible, but on my team there are like 20 people giving ideas and considering that most of my team have either teams of their own or are GMs on other teams, sometimes they have good advice that I would miss out on if there were only one or two people. I didnt say yall were bad either, I just said .. wow yall are good, but you could even be BETTER if there was more feedback.

However, you are right about too many brains at work, be clear, everyone knows on my team that there is only one chief, everyone gives suggestions, but its my call in the end.

Very nice analysis Randy.

I just want to know how he is looking at everyone's builds!!!!

The Drachen report is spot on. In fact, I have informed the team that this going to be our curtain call under my ownership. At least, that is very likely. We have had zero luck finding ANY reinforcements for the guys we lost, and that is going to be our major downfall. No CB will sign with us ... no WR will sign with us ... easily over 120 PMs and offers have been sent in the last week alone. We will now likely be undermanned heading into the season.

10. Rockford Warriors (11-9)

Last season it was clear that their only win over an elite team was their week 16 upset of Barger Hill, that still didnt stop Rockford from gutting, nor did it stop them from holding onto the team well into the offseason, effectively giving a new owner very little chance to rebuild the team, like the new owners of Greek (Rome) and Chernobyl have been able to do. Unless an owner comes with an entire team of his own already set up, it seems pretty hopeless to think that this team can do anything this season other than lose badly and get relegated, just like Budapest. Interestingly enough Budapest and Rockford were tied together in all kinds of various ways, both teams shared players and GMs and all kinds of stuff, so its even stranger yet that they chose to both gut at the same time.


Sorry I gutted the team. Ya it was a bit late 2 days. I waited till I could release the lone player left after he just resigned. Shit came up and I will probably only be on every couple of days. I barely had time to do anything last season. And a lot of the weeks we didn't even have a gameplan. Don't make accusations that you have no idea about. The only player I had that was on Budapest was Porky, one of my GM's. Same over there as far as I know. Porky was blocked from forums the week we played. I would of kept the team if the GM's had more time to run it. But all GM's had a team of their own plus multiple GMed teams. Why leave the players there with an unknown GM running the team that I didn't know or could trust. Check our former players they are all pretty scattered out. Yeah some of us went together to the same teams, but that was to stick together. Other than that I didn't mind the write-up. Maybe I'm over reacting and you just wrote that to stir up some controversy. GO CAJUNS!!!! Wish I would of signed a player there now.

randy is always reaching for some sign of "OMG CONSPIRACY" just ignore him and your fine

8. St. Petersburg Red Army Regulars (9-11)

This team is strange, Ill say that right off. They have the talent to be a more competitive team in Alpha than they are. But I think the issue is mostly builds and not levels, I took a look over their builds somewhat and there are real issues, so even if they look okay level wise, the bars give away what the case really is. This is clearly a step down from the Sarajevo and NFL tier, where they need some levels but have good builds, this team needs some levels and build work. They will not make the playoffs this season and could have as little as 3 wins, but I doubt more than 6.


Wrong...

Nice avatar tho...no one will argue that!

After 3 seasons here and much fun drama, I'll be leaving as owner of the Koats. Best of luck to all of you.

13. Chernobyl Mutants (9-11)

Well I thought that Rezlov was doing a better job filling in this team, I believe he is looking to recruit a few elite people and not filling in enough with L18-20 people who he might have a better chance getting, like big and rich is doing over with the Greek Fire. However, he does have a center, QB, kicker and one good LB .. so he has something to build around .. getting a solid OL would be key, along with some DBs .. but Im not sure this team can win many games this season, but thats okay, 2 games will avoid relegation and Rockford and Budapest are those two teams, maybe they can also beat Silesia .. but Silesia has crazy good tactics because somehow they win with like 10 human players, 30 CPUS and its pretty wild. That brings us to the last team.

I have recruited to as low as level 14. At this point, it's getting impossible to FILL the team let alone get good players.

Good write up Randy. But I think you are in for a surprise with the Tigers. Yeah my guys sa ton the bench last year, but this year they are going to destroy people. Watch out, here we come!

I just got denied by a LVL16 that I offered a big contract. IDK what I'm going to do with myself...
