Everything is very logical and i 100% agree on everything, i think exactly the same.

I'm posting this also because the transfer list shows that most good players at young ages still seem to be trained in clearly suboptimal ways

I often see stuff like perenial allstar with 18 driving which would cap him at like 12 OD making unplayable even in D3....
Another "badly trained players" are defence-first guys, with OD or ID , SB trained first. This isnt that bad, these skills also gives elasticity to other bonuses, and unless you training for NT it is ok, some people prefer OD, like i do, because atleast the trainee can defend, so he can participate in competetive games without being a hole.

I had played in seasons 6-18; now started from 45th, nothing changed since like season 15 I wonder how it is still a thing the NT advisors giving training plans to train secondaries second season. It is not right, you should train higherst net first, this builds better elasticity faster, also gives crosstraining to other skills. I think it should be secondaries, like OD for big man to be trained after Driving and IS, because this way it has best net pops per training sessions. They argue if you leave secondaries to later seasons it will take longer to pop, it is true, but overall at age 28 or so youll have overall higher skillset player. Why waste training time training OD at age 19 for 7.4 guy when he can get 0.8 pop per training session in like IS?:D

My MVP trainee was well into HoF cap territory when I stopped training him, but I'm not sure at which point he capped (he might have had high sublevels in potential). My Current 27yo NT HoF player is capped even assuming 0 sublevels everywhere but he's still increasing in DMI at a decent rate after training, which means he's still gaining. Also there were reports of Perennial All-Star players well into MVP territory skillsets.

CP has an assumption about the training speed slowdown after the soft cap is hit, however I think more research should be done into that. We would need some good soul to take some 18yo player who is born capped (announcers, bench-warmers and role players) after the draft and train him with a lvl 4 trainer to have a better understanding, because at old age it's really hard to tell what the reduction looks like and people are never sure when the player actually hit his soft cap.

Marin and GMs have been adamant they haven't, only the salary should have changed. At least I don't think Marin was insincere when he said it, I'm more skeptical he knows the consequence of every little change he made in the past.

I have too many top level trainees on both teams. Someone else will have to take this one or I will think about it if I decide to tank after I sell Needham from the Utopia team.
