A having better roster means nothing on bb, those come and go. In 4-5 season had my arena to this amount with 700k to spare for other everyday team cost do they?

Again Roster means nothing on BB. It a lot great rosters on BB but do they have money in the bank today, no they dont some flipping and doing everything under the sun to afford that roster or a better to create revenue. I have bad team in your mind but guess what I can buy a whole league of those same utopias teams rosters and both of your rosters of players if I wanted too then in 1-2 season later have 3 million no flipping, no tanking, I don't need the Bb market. That's not to brag , but shouldn't it be the other way around if they so much better in the game ?

Financial success is the only thing that matter long term ,creating revenue without spending. If a team can not do that they are not successful nor better. Its called assuming which is what your doing, looking weak don't mean your weak. And yes they should have 6 million, but do they? I had it in same amount of time if not 3 million.

Whats the excuse now, market bad. Lol. What does have to do with being smart and knowing what they can afford to start. Dont spend what you don't have. Its marathon not a sprint, Training alone will never get anyone out any jams on BB.

They wanted people to train and they got it. But what else do they have? Training cost money, its not free, you and many other seem to not understand that. Cost to afford, equals can you afford the cost long term? Its a marathon Egm perpete... Is level 4 better yes of course , but they can they afford it ,no they cant. Because they have not built a stream of positive revenue to afford it long term.

Everything is based as a long term Investment on BB. 15k a week trainer and your players 4k is not a good investment. You just raised your cost to afford long term with players. Selling those player lose team net worth and future team revenue, you bank saving become useless, . So much for that way of thinking.

On topic, I can't go through the entire thread, but I see most people talk about level 4 trainers with <15k salary <100k bid.

I believe level 3 is enough for a decent player, I usually get them with 7-8k salary, 1k bid.

I trained my allstar potential to 109 skills currently, and he probably has room for at least 3 more. I posted skills several times on the forums

11/12
12/12
12/9
13/10
9/9

I plan to push him to 112 skills next season

11/12
12/12
13/10
13/10
9/10 -about 26k salary

My only regret is taking too much IS, so I don't have room for SB now. I would change him to
11/12
12/12
13/10
10/10
9/17 -about 27k salary 116 skills

Doable with lvl 3 trainer and random draftee.

My point again why spend 250K plus 15 a week when can get one for free in the lowest level.? 2k a week= 8k a month rather than 120k-250 plus 15k a week.

You don't need to spend 250k to buy the trainer. At a 14+k salary, you should be able to acquire one for less than 10k initial bid easily if you are any kind of patient. The 250k is the total for an entire season, between purchase and weekly salary, including the weekly increases. If someone came into the game the same season as you and I and banked that 250k/season, they'd have almost $4M now. I haven't really done training in the last several seasons but I am certain that I couldn't replace the value I've made on training with $4M cash - I'd still be in IV, most likely, watching teams continue to start up, get better than me, and then pass me by... and I suppose trying to lecture them about why they're doing it wrong too. ;)

Nice. I think if Utopia were restarting and I figured out something I wanted to do with that team, I'd give a level 3 trainer a long look. I did it probably the first half of the first season until level 4 guys started getting close to their regular price range again, and I didn't feel like I lost too much there either.

1. depends on the trainer speacialty. Not all trainer negate drop. I have seen player get worse in skill when you train them, if its random which some of it is. it nothing than more reverse elastic effect in the higher skill trained but the kicker is how many skills should drop at one time 1-2, but some player 3-4 skills. Is that random. I think not.

2,Pr is not garbage you don't understand the Pr system to say it garbage.. You can recover every salary on the game with arena. You don't think more money earned in the playoff or cup is not worth the Pr salary. that same as saying a better trainer is not worth it( yes the irony). But in all seriousness.

Pr Depend on what you trying to do with the team and the appeal your looking for. Once we come to understand the appeal your looking for to create , the money will come through that in arena. if don't create to the appeal you paid for to maximize the Profit within the PR guy . It will not work, the profit will be minor.

3, it example not a exact number. 00001% would be the basic. its an example. Based on principal of 1-6 trainer level easy to understand not to be confused with the actual table chart. The price between salaries on trainers is based on %. MY point is You should not buy a higher level if you have not created any revenue to sustain and income long term . My point.

Not that trainer guide is label 00001 and etc. that was just basic understanding in % so you see how your spending and saving.. Exp level 6 trainer does more than basic. 0006% which is way higher to afford than basic 00001%.

4. Nothing is a mistruth ,have you tried it. I have so how is it not truthful? Am I not doing what im saying. lol

Again Roster means nothing on BB. It a lot great rosters on BB but do they have money in the bank today, no they dont

Your arguments might gain better traction if the objective of the game were having millions in the bank instead of winning games. Unfortunately, that is not the objective of the game.

(Nor is training players -- at least it shouldn't be in a game that represents itself as a basketball sim rather than a training exercise.)
