you don't forget, that it maybe a good way to earn money, but how you could plan to play their?

You could buy a expensive team(which becomes in the future a ugly high salary) to win your local cup/league but one unlucky loss game and you lose a lot money. maybe it is subotimal now, but this game is soo young, that i'm sure that this cup stays into balance if you look it in a long term way. So you could change their rules every season, or you could apologize a modell which is fair for the must seasons.

I think that for most teams BBB is not a big financial advantage, and for many it even cost them money.

If the teams want to take advantage of the extra training they have to invest in trainees. But this is not a benefit unless you manange to win at least a couple of rounds. Most of these teams would perhaps have to pay 1 million or more to get 2 extra trainees. My own trainees often set me back 500K to 1 million each, and I am quite far from having on of the best teams.

When they are out of BBB then approx. 20-25% when selling them again if they havent popped. Even with pops it could easily be a loss. Obviously there would be some sort of income as well - but in many cases this will not cover the loss when selling again.

Also when knocked out the team will take a hit in spectators - again less income. And if selling the newly bought players probably even another hit in spectators - again less income.

Game Shape will take a hit as well on non-training position, as these players will play too many minutes.
This might result in losses - and again less income.

Also you run the risk of injuries to key players.

So, to say that BBB will give a huge advantage to the teams participating is far from true. It might be the the very best teams in the world might get an advantage. But, then again they get it for performing really well (even the best team can be out of BBB in the first rounds).

I went out in the first round and I am not complaining, because it was fun to take part, and compare the team to the very best teams in the world.

Even with the financial disadvantages for team that go out in the first rounds, I do not like the idea to have the matches not count in training, as this is part of a good strategy/management game - having to make difficult decisions about training and what games to give top priority.

As a team in a lower division I want to catch you.


Setting unrealistic goals is only going to cause disappointment though

This tournament doesnt help me do this on any level if you benefit from it. You have 2 chances to return this year while I have one


IF I manage well and get some luck, I might benefit. If I get knocked out of the US tourney, begin to fall behind the NBBA, pick up a injury in the B3, etc, then I don't.

advantages from bbb: about 200k extra incom fromspectators each game, and extra training.
disadvantages: you need more players. if you want to compete there then you have to play the best squad in bbb, and you will play weaker in the league, which results in less spectators and less merchandise revenue.

for most of the teams it will be only a couple of games, so the benefit from extra training will not be too big, but of course it is fun to play there.
