You got it right. Numbers 2 and 3 are, in my mind, evidence of a training system that needs to be shaken up, and a reason why the training aspect (and search for free agents) is getting... less interesting. I'd love to see the game capable of facilitating a greater variety of strategies, but if we've all figured out what training strategies are the more "TSP efficient", we're inevitably training very similar types of players so strategies are going to be very similar.
For example, I've always wanted to try to develop teams with great passing as a way of increasing shooting percentage without necessarily having JS/IS/JR freaks in my lineup, but training PA is a really pain in the rear since it's only one position training for maximum efficiency, so training up a few great passers is really hard to do, and it's also a skill that's hard to find an elite level in the TL relative to other skills.
It was a little frustrating with all of the posts in the thread that were like "you just want to make training easier". That's not the case, I just want the approach to training to change so that there is an opportunity for us to diversify the strategies, and think more about how players realistically would be trained (yes, there is a component of player training that happens in practice, not just game experience).
Thanks for reading through the thread and getting it.
