I have a buddy that just promoted from the league you are in, you actually took his place. Looking at the top four teams in your division yes they have good players, but they all have one problem. They don't know how to manage game shape. Looks like you could use some help in that department as well. I have found you have a huge advantage if you manage first enthusiasm (which it looks like you have figured that out), but also game shape. Look at my last game (http://www.buzzerbeater.com/match/42765695/boxscore.aspx) , I played someone that at some positions has better players than I do, but much worse game shape, and I blew him out.

Also with 800k you can buy one great player or two good players, and after you sell the ones on your roster that you replace you will be fine financially.

I promoted to div IV last season, and made it to game 3 of the championship. Not to toot my own horn, but I just managed gameshape and enthusiam and did pretty well.

YOure starting the same topics over and over again every day 10 new topics in the help by you and youre told the same thing over and over again.

Not only are you rude, you are very wrong. I've not started a thread on here in way over a week, maybe two weeks, and I've never asked this question on the forums.

Thanks for the info.

I've actually did pretty well in controlling game shape in the past, but I blew it up to start this season because I lost the first couple games and then decided to go ahead and burn my guys out by trying to win my cup game and get certain guys some training minutes, which I did.

But yea, I agree, better game shape would help my guys. When it's just two league games per week and then a scrimmage, I control my game shapre pretty well. But I messed it up the last two weeks trying to both win and train.

I also have done pretty well in the past on enthusiam, but again, I blew it up early this season just trying to win a game. But it's not worked, and probably set my team back even further.

Again, thanks for the info and opinion, it is greatly appreciated.

haha actually i havent been in any other league higher then V. I just have gained a lot of info from three different mentors and it sucks being in V. league. BTW don't let these other people get to you, your fine asking questions. Thats how you learn the game better. They are just kinda over-reacting Hopefully we can be in the same IV next year ;)

4- you are supporter there is a search option you know ?

Right. I agree with you. I have not asked the same question over and over. This is the first time I've asked this question. Go do all the searching of the forums you want.

I'm sorry I've upset you so bad with my question. It was not my intention. I was just trying to make a better decision for my team by getting other opinions. This thread would have been just fine without your rudeness. As you can see, you are the only one that is bothered by my question.

I apologize to you for whatever I've done to you to make you treat me like this. Now please let me have a conversation on here without you interupting it with something that is off-topic. Thanks.

Why? So you can get in on beating up on my team like these other teams are :)

After going 20-2 last season, it's hard to swallow an 0-3 start to this season, so I'm probably jumping the gun on even thinking about giving up on this season so early.

In two of your three losses, the other team played with higher attitude (TIE, NORM, CT) then you and the games were still decently close

This may be the best point made in this thread. I never really considered this before.

I started 0-3 in my first season in D.IV and wound up 9-13, in 6th place and blew out my relegation opponent. Last season I went 13-9, in 4th place. The point is, you can turn your season around. You just need to manage enthusiasm, Gs and with that 800k, buy make some good additions and you should survive your first season in D.IV.
