On the positive side, you're still going to promote due to your record.

I don't know, We'll see.

Not sure how that works exactly.

It will be interesting if I do promote, since it may force me to decide if I use my extra millions to be relevant in T2, or just
go with flow and save it for the right time.

Since 5 teams relegate from each league every season, it opens up an extra 4 spots for promotion into D2, on top of those teams that win their league. Those 4 teams are determined by order of record, with PD serving as the tiebreaker. You have the 5th best record in D3, so if any of the 4 teams ahead of you win their league (which seems highly probable), you'll be in D2 next season.

I wish I had your dilemma regarding extra millions. I don't think I stand a chance of staying in D2. My roster is poor - by D2 standards - and I have about a million dollars right now.

How do You know I have the 5th best record in D3 ?

If you have poor roster by D2 standards, and it's better then mine right now, then I have even less of a chance.... ha ha ha

I have about 6 mil, I spent like one mil in players and in staff to keep a strong income and keep the team competitive.

I didn't want to promote, so I looked up the records in each league before the last regular season game to see where I would rank for bot promotion, if I didn't win the league. I was high enough that I figured it would happen, so I bought Hawthorne. When I looked at the rankings in D3, you were 5th.

You've been in D2 for about 10 seasons. You know better than I do what it takes to compete. I'm sure you can use your 6 million to put together a better roster than I have.

Oh yeah, but I was saying it by your estimations, that if you don't think you have good enough team imagine my team that's not better then your ha ha ha,

But in actuality by my experience it wasn't that bad.

I keep hearing the trick is the Arena size, personally your bank account size to get players,
also in what league you land in, just like in any other D4 or D3 you have struggling teams, some time you get too
many in one league creating a chance for you to stick around.

The time I went I had a better defensive team than right now, but I have better overall team this time,
since that time I practically went from D4 to D2

Didn't get a chance to do any real changes to my rosters since I couldn't afford any.

Another thing is that the players' Market right is a lot more friendly then back then.
You may get really good players for a lot less money then back then.

That's good to know. Sounds like I'm overestimating the difficulty of it. I may not have a big bank account, but my arena is pretty big.

If you end up promoting, I hope next season goes well for you.

well, I'm hoping to recover at least half of my investment from this season, that's my real goal if I do promote.

Unlike you I don't think I have a team made for T2, at least not for staying there, and not sure I'm ready
to break my bank yet.
I may need to work on my Arena first

You seem to have picked up some good pieces before moving up, by the way
Congrats on your Championship win.

Congrats on the win! Happy to see one of our most active managers promote into the bigger leagues.

And now your watch (here) has ended.

Thanks!

Hopefully your stay in D2 will at least be financially profitable, if you choose to coast. Well-played this season!

Thanks, brotha!

It’s time for my favorite III.4 manager to quit competing in relegation series and start competing for championships.
