A new season award that is given to the best rookie in the league. Not only would winning the award give a boost to shirt sales but the rookie would also increase potential. This would apply to 1st, 2nd and 3rd place. It would give 19 year old players with lower potential more value.


I like that suggestion, especially with the potential increase. How much? Randomly +1 up to +3? Or for Superstar or higher just +1, for everything lower up to +3?

That would definitely be a great addition. And would make those young draftees more valuable.

How much would they need to play in league games in order to qualify for the rookie of the year-award?

Winner: 1x Consolation Tournament (U21), 2x Goldene Ananas, 1x Goldene Himbeere, 2x Goldener Erdapfel, 3x Bronze Medal (U21)

I somewhat like the idea, but then again, the boosts the lower potential players get in TSP would be too overpowered for U21 in my opinion. Imagine getting an 18yo 66 TSP all-star rookie and by the time he's U21 he is now an MVP/HoF potential.

Perhaps it is possible with some further tweaks.

I like the idea of the award, I don't quite like the change of the potential.
I think ROY could "just" boost merchandise and maybe ticket selling (and add a trophy to your team) and that would be enough for me.

I agree. The boost in potential would be too overpowered, and will even further decrease the value of 18 yo draftees who don’t have the initial skills to compete against 19 yo rookies.

I don't mind the suggestion, as long as it is max +1 potential increase and the award would go to the ROTY only. So, no rewards for 2nd or 3rd place.
