Injuries are extra brutal as a self-trained team I'm finding out. Had my best player out for 2 weeks, then his backup now gets injured, because of course. Even my third string player in this game got injured, and only lost by 10 points. When you're competing against $100k monsters it's tough enough already.

The health and recovery center should be a big help, but hardly did anything for my first player injured. We'll see what it does for this next guy. Am in 3rd place despite all that, but this is a real season killer now.

I had homegrow team till I bought center from Turkye :(

Hi guys,

Just started again after taking a long break from the game. This looks like the challenge for me as I love training up young players. So count me in!

I always had a Doctor level3 with speciality (heal injuries), it prevents much from injuries. Injuries happen often only for the game, and not after the game.

Hey i made it to league 2 but i am scared to get demoted. I wanst strong enough and i couldnt resit buying me some help. It is sad to say but i am not a homegrown team anymore... it was much fun but i have to say good bye to you all. I wish you good luck.

I had homegrow team till I bought center from Turkye :(

No you hadn't. In order to be a homegrown team, you have to draft all of your players (or get them when you create a team). I'm on my way to become homegrown, since I have 7 out of 12 homegrown players. In 4-5 seasons, I hope to make it.

hahahaha thanks man :P

A quick update. Both of my teams have way over-exceeded expectations. And are somehow in D2 playoff contention going into the final week of the season! It's incredible since both teams were mainly built with a level 3 trainer & I've been training 5-6 players per week all season. Haven't once used my best lineup.

USA D2 - Will finish the season winning 4 of my last 5 games! Incredibly can make the playoffs if 2 top teams in my conference don't throw their final game! But even if i wind up in a relegation series and lose, it's still shown that being a competitive D2 team is more than doable. The competitive loses were the most surprising part actually. Such as being down only 5 points with 45 seconds left to a longtime great team like Dog River. Despite my worst trainee that game having a -25 plus/minus! I've pretty much thrown every game this season for training purposes.

Utopia D2 - Am in 3rd place, ahead of 2 teams with multiple players making more than my entire starting lineup! It was nice to see a 100% self trained player put up 48 points and 10 rebounds against a $150k monster. If I didn't have to stress the final 2 games of the season so much I might've even been in line to win a playoff game. In fact just recently beat the 2nd place team playing TIE while training 2 players. And won by 15 points!

So yeah, it's been a major success regardless of how the final week goes.

Ugh, of course it didn't use the scrimmage lineup i tried to set. And instead used my default lineup. So right before the most important week of the year my most important players are at 110 minutes this week

So I'll have to burn a week training game shape plus use a level 6 psychologist... and watch game shape still be ruined!

End of season !
Logically and easily, I've finished at the 4th place :D
Because of my very good beginning, I could manage a very good form for the 1/2 final next tuesday, unfortunately against the best team (but I beat him during the season, surprinsingly).
I realized a perfect 7 wins streak, and since I play on low, and I could win some games, although I always put a young player at PG position. So, my new PG is done, and another one (level 8) will be my next SG or SF. My third plot will be a future PF I think, except if my SG can go to U21 Team next season.

I win about 50k each week, so future is good.
BUT, my team goes older, especially my Center. My SG & SF turn 32 and 33, I must hurry to replace them !
