Why not auto sell the drafters'bot players at 0 price?
In this mode we don't lose good players or nt prospect...

We'll consider this as a valid solution, in case the talent pool reduces a lot. We might not release all draftees this way, maybe a smaller selection (as much as we determine is needed) based equally on skill and a random factor.

Please don't ! Draftees prices are already at an all-time low (except for very top end rookies). The announced change, good for many reasons, might also help make scouting a little more profitable, don't kill it with bot draftees.


Yeah, it's already a crapshoot to invest into drafting, but if there are bot draftees on the market, there are even fewer reasons to pay for it.

Great for the NTs, sure, but Buzzerbeater is not a NT game, it's a club game first.


Also dual citizens of Utopia kinda fixed part of the problem of limited NT prospect pool. Rather than listing bot drafted players, one option could be to raise the chance of Utopian draftees to get nationality of smaller country. Big countries already have big enough NT prospect pool so I doubt they will be too bummed about one or two less MVP - hall of famer for them and one or two more going to smaller country.

The nations with say 100-150 users will get hurt the most (not sure if they are classed as small or mid sized), because they currently have all III drafts and will lose most of them, and I'm not sure they get many draftees from Utopia. For example Finland NT currently has 8 out of 18 players who wouldn't exist in the new system. England would lose 6 or 7 players out of 16.

I agree releasing all bot draftees would completely tank the market, and I understand NT is given a lower priority compared to individual teams when it comes to changes. But I think what Marin says makes sense, where it may be beneficial to release some top-end draftees depending how this plays out in reality.
