I slightly disagree with this. In the ABBL there are lots of teams with just 1-2 200k players, then the rest of their starters around 100k but then a massive drop to their bench players none of which are more than 50k. You really don't need 7-8 stars to survive. Two stars, three players who can fulfil their specific roles and a few half decent bench players should be fine.

Winning away games is preferable as losing on the road causes less visitors come to your home games, thanks to the fan survey (our team played well in the last league game......NOT).

winning one game is better then loosing 2, also for the fan survey. And since HC isn't that small, most team who could win regulary away, don't ask such question.

That why must team concentrate more on there home game this week, since winning in general is more important then loosing to get every 3-4 week an extra visitor boost, which doesn't make up the visitor loss for the extra losses.

If you are stuck in the middle you have to pick your spots and sometimes it is better to reach for the win on the road than count on your "guaranteed" win at home - especially considering the loss of income one can avoid.

Its losing and not loosing. Huge difference.

a relegation cost you more ;) And there you go with the save pick, if you are in the middle of the PO you might try it, but also a place there makes a big different and maybe 10k per home game next season. If you are sure you can win both go for the away game, or when the difficulty is the same but you need first go to the win when you are a team fighting relegations. As i already write "mostly" and "normally".

I assume the deleted answer was someone abusing me.

The ABBL teams have brilliant players at all positions. I was able to win and promote with a combination of luck and luck. None of my players were ABBL standard. So having made it I could have thrown every resource I had into surviving, completly draining my team and then probably being relegated anyway. Or I could tank. I tanked and with my tanking money I bought two ABBL standard players who are young enough that they can be on my team for at least another six seasons. My trainee is getting there slowly and approaching ABBL standard. By this time next season I hope to have three ABBL standard players and then buy another so hopefully have enough firepower to survive.

any expert can teach me how to survive in div 1?


I'm no expert of D.I, but I reckon it's not that different from D.III or D.II.

Be slightly better than the worst team in your conference and 6th team in other conference...:)
