wow high quality over here in OPL


This guy bought a CPU pro team. It's Bort's fault for leaving CPU teams in Pro leagues and letting them be bought instead of the Pro spot being earned.


yea i know! i pmd an AAA owner to pm support because we had 2 CPU teams in EEPL, so what happened, they let a noob buy a PRO team, wtf system needs fixed!

Yeah, this annoys me too. I don't know why CPU team purchasing isn't capped at A or AA.

CPU teams are gone now, either by purchase or team swap. That is always a good thing while still in the offseason

Definitely agree with this. Just wish an established AAA team had been promoted and the CPU team dropped prior to the sell. The team was CPU on day 42 (if not before), so there was plenty of time for Bort to do that.

When I was in AAA, the idea that I might get passed up for a pro promotion so that someone could purchase a Pro CPU team did not settle well, and even though it is a non-issue for me now, I still feel empathy for the AAA teams that got passed over. You can certainly make the case that they should have won more and earned their way in, but certainly being a playoff AAA team and maybe winning a first round game is more deserving than just being on the game at the right day and time to purchase a Pro team directly.

For the record, I do not blame the buyers of these teams, as they are playing within the rules. I blame the rule makers (i.e Bort and crew).

I agree completely. A playoff AAA team is more deserving of owning a spot in a pro league and is much more likely to be competitive in its first season in pros.

That dot would be kinda cool pass rushing in a 3-4 D.


Exactly what I thought when I saw the build. It may not work, but it's an interesting idea and I see what the agent is doing. Outside contain/pass rush LB in a 3-4 might be cool.

I'm worried that the lack of Speed won't get him there in time often even if he does break a block but we'll see.
