It's also past the point of being a trick that may or may not have worked in the past. Both finalists have added ~500k centers in recent weeks. This season the divine trick has already succeeded and the final has yet to be played.

With the money some teams have stocked up (not me but the even smaller nation/dominant teams) a cut-off point for registering players will make their task even easier It will just boil down to timing your run.. naturally if 2 similar teams go for it at the same time they'll only have a 50/50 chance but what is also not being discussed is when certain teams adopt this strategy, it can have the complete opposite effect on other so called contenders.

If you see that team X is going for it by adding players that he just can't afford week in week out and you aren't prepared to copy, then you can just go defensive and operate at much lower than you normally would and compound the saving you make over your rival so that the following season(s) you have a much bigger advantage.

Charles will likely argue that this is good because it guarantees different winners each time but then we are in a scenario where there isn't really that much close competition. You just resign from the race to win the trophy and only go for it when you are almost certain of victory.

No - I'm saying if you aren't competing you can strip your roster back for an entire season (or longer) accept a lower finish in the league or a shorter cup run and then build to fight another day.

If you are going to finish 4th in your league or get knocked out in the cup anyway why operate on $800k a week if you can operate on $300k and achieve the same result?

Fair point. Just this: if and when you have that conversation, be careful with the data. In season 12, Los Dragones rented the mother of all rental players: Silves. Not suggesting that this alone should make you change the systems but simply that strictly speaking:

teams have tried essentially renting superstars but haven't been able to win the tournament that way.

is false.

Look who's back in the BBB final...I wonder if they will even bother printing his name on a new jersey since he'll be long gone in a matter of days...

Maybe the transfer rules could be as the champions league..
Who played in a B3 match with another team and when he transferred an another team, he's ineligible for the B3 matchs..
Just an idea..

Doesn't make much sense on any level. Either you have a large amount of such monsters circulating around, in which case the measure is more or less irrelevant, or you're distorting the market so that the team that bought a given player first have an advantage throughout the tournament.
