In spanish there is a usefull guide. Perhaps you could translate with google translator

(273317.1)

i don't think you have enough experience to write a beginner guide....

If there is any advice that I would give to any beginners is to start training as soon as you can. My team is relatively young but most of my success is coming from the trainees that I have trained up. I was really fortunate to have a HOF 18 year old from the transfer market and trained him up to be somewhat decent so I managed to get a good amount of funding for future plans by selling him 3 seasons later.

You don't have to start with an MVP/ Hall of Fame player. You can just start with 3 cheap Perennial Allstar or Superstar 18-year-olds then just train them up. And always try contacting your respective U21 coaches since they will most likely help you and give you advice with the trainees you have.

It depends greatly on the league. If it is a small country and you start in div.3 full of bots or even div.2, everything will work. It would be difficult not to make money even if you try to waste it. But if you are in a country like Spain and you start in div.4 with most real and experienced users, life is much tougher.

In any case, certainly it is a posibility to sell everything and just sit there during two seasons taking advantage of lack of salary floor. You will make A LOT of money that way. But obviously it is boring. Investing in the arena is a sure bet. You can't go wrong doing that.

I would advise to take it easy with training. Most managers lose money through training. They think that they are making money because the players improve. But they don't see the money they give to trainers, the lack of real value improvement for the players, the games lost, the salaries of the trainees and so on. I would bet all managers in this thread advising to train because "it is the most important thing in BB" are in fact losing money. Son don't train until you know what you are doing.

The middle road for new managers would be to buy very cheap players with very low salary and try to win at least to the bots and maybe a few more games and that way slowly learn the game while still having a big weekly superavit. That would be my advise to new managers.

Just checked it out, it seems like you missing a part about how to train players in international level. Thats explains a bit the lack of titles in spanish national teams.

Also, what about how to ask from other coaches to intentionally lose the game so you can have more enthusiasm for the next game but still lose it?

XD I think you have a problem, maybe you should consult a specialist

Thanks to everyone for all the feedback.

@Alonso

I agree you don't need to reach the final arena before making progress with your team, I have clarified the wording on that section.

I believe this comment (306600.27) was the biggest inspiration for the arena section. From memory I found courtside were often selling out at the start (even after building more and setting it to max price), so my experience did match the advice. I've added a sentence to recommend building the sections that are selling out, as for each new team it will be slightly different and that is the most straightforward way to think about it.

@simba

Thanks, I will check the Spanish thread out this week.

Understanding of economy is the most important thing. We should make GM out of you since you decided who must write a guide and who shouldnt

He ain't wrong. Training is what brings you the most money and fun in this game. Also yeah its great to see new players are enjoying this game so much that they blog about it, but calling that a 'guide' is like calling a 4 year olds drawings art.
