So In my first few seasons playing Buzzerbeater, I have managed To make my arena pretty big. It's one of the biggest in my league, And I keep my attendance at a high capacity. My question is, Where do I go from here?

Looking at the top teams in the game atm, I can see that they preffered not to invest in their lower tier, and instead made a huge Bleachers arena, sometimes reaching up to 19,000 or 20,000 bleachers. I wondered why this is the method most users use, because My line of thought was to start expanding my lower tier, in a way that when my arena hits the capacity cap of about 21,000 +/-, it will be devided to bleachers and lower tier, seeing as lower tiers pay more money for their seat regardless. Any tips?

I think the most lower tier you can have is 10000. so have some to go to get there though. idk if you want to have a 21k arena. My goal for myself is to aim for this:


14000 bleachers
5000 lower tier
500 courtside
30 lux.

somewhere around there. so thats 19530 seats.

try to go somewhere around here and you'll be fine:

15000
4000-6000 LT
400-500 courtside
25-50 Lux

Your arena is plenty big for your division so I would spend your money on better players so that you can promote.
You won't need to get any bigger than that until you're in D1.

As for your question, I would stop building bleachers immediately and only build lower tier from here on out.

I second what Beener said, only Lower Tier from now on. From what Manon has said in the past, in a quick summary, Lower Tier over Bleachers. At least in the aspect that they aren't as influenced by losses compared to Bleachers. Since he would want around 7-10K Lower Tier, I would shoot for around the same. The rest of your Arena looks great!

Concerning my question, I have made a quick search around the top teams in the game today, almost all of them move between 3000-4500 lower tiers, no more. I rarely saw a team go past the limit of 7000 lower tier. Is it really the way to go for me? Why do people prefer bleachers so much more?

I can honestly only think it may have been a trend way back when they were building their arena. Seeing as how once you've built it you can't delete it, they're all stuck.

I plan on building around 7K Lower Tier though.

I think a lot of the top teams built their arenas many seasons ago and that was considered the best way to build at that time. Bleachers were cheap to build, then everyone that follows just copies the top teams and you end up with most arenas looking similar to one another.

But I also think that if many of those same people could build their arenas over again, they'd substitute thousands of their bleachers for lower tier seats.

Yup, he's the exception to the rule.
