INTERVIEW WITH NOIR

Hello all virtual footballers. In today's edition, I had the pleasure of interviewing a member of the LaFamilia team. With a person with whom I can play from the start of the server. We had the opportunity to get to know each other very well and I don't know why I decided to interview him only now. I would like to introduce you to the player Noir and I invite you to read the interview.

Tell us something about yourself. What's your name, what do you do, any hobbies?

Hello, my name is Szymon. I don't have any specific hobby. Maybe when I was younger I was collecting Stones, which one looked nice to me. Now most of the time I am at work, after I like to enjoy a good movie or series.

Why do you have such a nickname and what made you start your adventure with FT?

My nickname is just a random thing. This nickname is french, that means "Black". Nothing special, but in my opinion it just sounds nice.

What are your ambitions as a club? Stay in SuperLeague, win some Cups?

Hmm it's not only my ambition, but as a team we hope to start at top 3 on SuperLeague and try to get a CT cup.

You've been playing LaFamilia for four months now. How do you rate this club? 

I am a person who prefers to stay on the same team as long as I can. The name of the club reflects what this club is for me. People are amazing. You can talk with them about everything and joke about everything.

What would you change/add/remove in FT?

I don't think so. Game is going in a good direction. Maybe they should change the event's duration. For me an event which is for more than 1 week is breaking the game a bit. It's an easier way to progress for people, but it becomes boring + P2W players are becoming too strong.

Do you have enemies here? Individual units or maybe entire teams?

Nah, I am kinda a quiet person. I prefer to watch instead of taking part in dramas. For me it's only a game and we shouldn't take everything seriously.

Why did you choose the centre forward position?

It was a random decision. These days I regret that a little bit. But I cannot go backwards and transfer every stat to a defender. In my opinion there's too many CF players. But WHO knows it's gonna be like that.

How do you like the newly introduced Player Card Packs?

I mean it's a good feature. Something different + you can get free rewards if you're lucky enough. You can get 3 packs a day by doing basic stuff. Overall it's the best thing in the game for me. Sadly they setted up the. monthly limit to exchange collections.

What is your favorite FT module? What do you most like to spend your time on?

There is not much stuff, where you have to spend a lot of time. But I enjoy doing pack openings and watching match results.

If you were to leave LaFamilia for some reason, what team would you target?

I don't have something like that in my mind, so I've never thought about leaving. Probably I would go to the 1st League just to have more fun from the game.

What advice would you give to a new player just starting out?

Mainly they should focus on training. Even if you have amazing equipment. Training is more effective than equipment. For sure resources like energy, euro, boosters are needed for that, but training will help your progression more than having a better set etc.

Would you like to greet someone in particular?

Whole LaFamilia club for having the best people I have ever met in the games I was playing.

Thank you very much for reading the interview to the end. If you would like to ask someone a few questions on various topics, feel free to contact me and I will do my best to publish the interview with this person in the future. I wish you all a nice game and good luck opening packages.

WHO IS COOLER? WHITERABBIT VS. PEDRITO

Hey everyone, it's Zidane. As you have already guessed, this issue of the magazine will again feature a battle between two tough players playing the same position on the soccer field. There are a total of 5 rounds in the battle. A player gets 1 point for winning a round. So, let's get started.

In this issue, we will talk about players who play in midfield. Without them, it is difficult to imagine the teams in which they play, because their role on the football field is very important. It is these players who can turn the tide of the match by making a decisive pass or scoring the winning goal. Today there will be a battle between 2 cool midfielders of the server.  Who is cooler? Let's find out.

So, today is the battle between WhiteRabbit and Pedrito. Player statistics are up-to-date as of 01.10.2023.

Round 1. Training only

Evaluating only the training of the players, you can see that Pedrito looks more powerful (708 vs. 643). Let's take a look at what endurance players have. And in this parameter, the advantage is also on the side of Pedrito. 2396 vs. 1940. 

But let's take a look at the main skill of midfielders – playmaking. WhiteRabbit has 2016, and Pedrito has 2358.

Pedrito wins the first round with an advantage.

Round 2. Items

In this round, let's compare player items. WhiteRabbit items give an increase of 2551 points, and Pedrito items give 2528 points. Thus, the winner of this round is WhiteRabbit. And the total score is 1:1. So far, there is a draw in this battle.

Round 3. Personal awards

Now let's deal with the personal awards of the players. WhiteRabbit: 2nd Best Forward 1 ESP (Season: 3), 3rd Best Midfielder 1 ESP (Season: 3).

Pedrito: 3rd Best Midfielder SuperLeague (Season: 9), 1st Best Midfielder 1 GER (Season: 3), 1st Best Midfielder 1 GER (Season: 2), 2nd Best Midfielder 1 ESP (Season: 6), 2nd Best Midfielder 1 GER (Season: 4).

Pedrito's convincing victory in this round. And the total score is 2-1 in favor of Pedrito

Round 4. Statistics

Let's analyze the statistics of players for the entire career and for the current season, excluding friendly matches. Based on the position of the players on the field, we will take into account goals and assists.

This season, WhiteRabbit played 1703 minutes on the field, during which time he scored 19 goals and made 15 assists. This means 1 effective action in 50 minutes of playing time.

Pedrito played 1460 minutes on the field this season and scored 2 goals and made 16 assists. This means 1 effective action in 81 minutes of playing time.

Now let's take a look at the stats of the players throughout their careers.

WhiteRabbit scored 201 goals and made 140 assists in his career, while spending 23194 minutes on the field. So, 1 effective action in 68 minutes.

Pedrito scored 74 goals and made 178 assists throughout his career, while spending 23503 minutes on the field. So, 1 effective action in 93 minutes.

As you can see, WhiteRabbit stats for this season and for his entire career look better. And he wins this round.

And the score becomes 2-2.

Round 5. Loyalty to the team

Let's see how loyal the players are to their clubs and how often they change teams. 

KS TRZYNACHA is the 4th club for WhiteRabbit. The player joined this club on 14.09.2023. 

Pedrito has been playing for the club BAVOVNA since 05.12.2022. This is the 1st and so far the only club for the player. That's what true dedication to your club is all about.

The winner of this round is Pedrito.

Well, let's summarize. Today was a very intense battle between two very strong midfielders. And the winner was determined only in the final round. At the end of 5 rounds, Pedrito wins this battle with a score of 3-2.

Thank you for your attention.

LET’S CHECK THESE TEAMS #4

Dear readers,

Greetings! I am thrilled to present another article in my FootballTeam series. My name is Andrew Norbertson, and I am eager to share my insights on various teams that I have been examining. Without further ado, I have compiled the following numbers and points as of 30.09.2023

The PEAKY BLINDERS team is really making waves this season in the Spanish first division. If you were to check out their trophy cabinet, you would only find two trophies - one for promotion to the first division and the other for finishing second in season 8. However, this does not reflect their current performance, as they have been winning all their games and are currently in first place after 18 league rounds. It's clear that their transfer moves, including the acquisition of top players like Lord Vader and Francisco de Anconia, have heavily influenced their success. As someone who writes article in Sports Journal, I have previously mentioned Rayo eSports dominance in the Spanish league, but it seems that this season it may be the PEAKY BLINDERS team that takes the championship.

During the course of my 5-part series checking out teams from FootballTeam, the Stiff Boys team is certainly worth a look. They're currently ranked as the number 1 team overall, having won the Champions Tournament three times and the Super League four times. In the current season, they're doing very well, having only drawn once and won 17 times out of 18 rounds. Their goal record is also impressive, having scored 97 goals and only lost 11. It's safe to say that one of their players will likely be in the top 3 for individual statistics. Some standout players on the team include striker Patrickkk, midfielder XXX, and defensive midfielder Reginald. With their impressive track record and current performance, it's definitely possible that the Stiff Boys team could win the Champions Tournament or Super League once again.

Let's take a closer look at the third team, which is Romper FC. They represent the Italian league in the overall ranking and currently hold 21st position. However, in the league table, they are doing great by occupying 4th place with a total of 43 points, which is impressive considering the strong rivals they face, including KS TRZYNACHA and Łosie w Kosmosie. This position secures their spot in the European Tournament for the next season. Speaking of the European Tournament, Romper FC has already won it in the past, which is a remarkable achievement for a team that is not considered a top team. They also have other trophies in their club cabinet, such as the Domestic Cup, finishing 2nd in the top division twice, and winning 3rd place once. However, Romper FC experience in the Super League was not great, as they finished last at that time. Nevertheless, this team has some outstanding players, such as Dani888, Jan Oblak and Xaviesta, who are worth mentioning.

Mazovia Mady is a club that plays in the 1st German league. They are currently in 4th place after completing 18 rounds of matches in the current season, which gives them a chance to play in the European Tournament next season. However, the competition is fierce and they need to win more games to maintain their position. Looking at their club cabinet, we can see that they have won trophies for 3rd place and 1st place in the second league, which helped them get promoted to the first league. Kadros, Razor and Dorian Liszcz are some of the strongest players on the team.

In today's article, that would be that. Thank you very much for your attention. Feel free to visit the comments section and see you next week. See you!

WHICH GROUP OF PLAYERS IS THE STRONGEST?

Hello everyone! Today is the grand finale and the culmination of the game I have been hosting for the past few weeks. We will determine which group of players looks the best in terms of the skills required for their positions. I have selected the top 3 individuals for each position to confront each other today and see if they can gather points for their teams in the grand finale.

The game will proceed exactly like in the tournaments with 8 teams, but here, attackers, defenders, goalkeepers, and midfielders are considered teams. Each player can earn individual points for their group, and then we will calculate the total points for each team. Without further ado, let me introduce today's players to you.

List of participating players:

Attackers:

Łysy Pereira- Main Skill (2916.16) Stamina (2516.32) Secondary Skill (431.58) Set Pieces (1928.99)

Patrickkk - Main Skill (3010.74) Stamina (2501.20) Secondary Skill (915.00) Set Pieces (899.32)

HellscreaM - Main Skill (3522.29) Stamina (2030.53) Secondary Skill (306.00) Set Pieces (757.09)

Goalkeepers:

Acziwment - Main Skill (3350.86) Stamina (1488.97) Secondary Skill (332.34) Set Pieces (821.51)

Gianluigi Buffon - Main Skill (1717.27) Stamina (1381.30) Secondary Skill (295.81) Set Pieces (1039.12)

Midfielders:

Bella Ciao 11 - Main Skill (2568.93) Stamina (2282.33) Secondary Skill (291.76) Set Pieces (764.69)

Speezi - Main Skill (2789.14) Stamina (2650.97) Secondary Skill (403.17) Set Pieces (567.10)

Acherat - Main Skill (4798.40) Stamina (2077.64) Secondary Skill (106.77) Set Pieces (144.55)

Defenders:

Reginald - Main Skill (4156.48) Stamina (2501.37) Secondary Skill (154.76) Set Pieces (107.37)

Francisco de Anconia - Main Skill (4092.04) Stamina (2027.10) Secondary Skill (303.19) Set Pieces (297.92)

Carles Puyol Saforcada - Main Skill (3720.27) Stamina (2504.79) Secondary Skill (208.94) Set Pieces (928.23)

It's the grand finale, so the scoring system will be a bit different this time. 5 points for the 1st place, 3 points for the 2nd, 2 points for the 3rd, and 1 point for the 4th. I hope this change will make the finale more exciting. Let's begin!

Let's check the ranking after 4 rounds.

Attacker Team - 16 points

Midfielder Team - 12 points

Goalkeeper Team - 6 points

Defender Team - 10 points

A very close race in terms of points.

Let's look at the total Main Skill:

Midfielder Team - 10156.47 - 3 points

Attacker Team - 9449.19 - 2 points

Time to check Secondary Skill:

Goalkeeper Team - 955.52 - 3 points

Midfielder Team - 801.70 - 2 points

Defender Team - 666.89 - 1 point

Let's check our ranking before the final round:

Attacker Team - 28 points

Midfielder Team - 19 points

Goalkeeper Team - 11 points

Defender Team - 19 points

Attackers!! But let's see who will take the second place and calculate all the points from the past weeks. Let's check the final round.

Total Set Pieces:

Attacker Team - 3585.40 - 5 points

Goalkeeper Team - 2798.37 - 3 points

Midfielder Team - 1476.34 - 2 points

Defender Team - 1333.52 - 1 point

Our final score today is:

Attacker Team - 33 points

Midfielder Team - 21 points

Goalkeeper Team - 14 points

Defender Team - 20 points

The competition was quite interesting. Let's see how our points table looks after 6 weeks.

Striker Team - 107 points

Midfielder Team - 87 points

Defender Team - 62 points

Goalkeeper Team - 50 points

Attackers rule the field. They are the most well-trained players. Midfielders also have a strong point tally and outshine the defenders. Finally, our goalkeepers, while not the best, have shown their skills. That's all for this week. I will return to such rankings in a few weeks to let our stars train more ;)

Message me privately about what interests you now, and I will try to address that topic. Greetings to everyone, and see you on the field!

DOMESTIC CUP FINALS ARE OVER!

Good afternoon! Finally, we can announce the winners of this season's Domestic Cup in delight. Each of the matches brought us plenty of beautiful goals and electrifying emotions! Let's review each of them! 

ENGLISH CUP

At 12.00 AM (UTC +01:00), the Wilcza Barkowa and Bella Ciao met in the FA Cup final. Bella Ciao is currently the best club in England, so the favorite for this match was the one. 

We saw the first hit as early as 9', when an Izreth player took advantage of Miikuu's great pass from a corner kick, then placed the ball in the net. Rychu (Bella Ciao) scored two more goals before the end of the first half. Bella Ciao was already leading 3-0. Kolmapuszi hammered a nail in Wilcza Barkowa's coffin by scoring the last goal of the final. Nothing more happened. 4-0!

SPANISH CUP

This final was the most interesting of all Domestic Cup finals. It was difficult to identify a clear favorite in the PEAKY BLINDERS' rivalry with LaFamilia II. 

The match started with a goal in 13' by Saitama, who seized his opportunity after a great catch by Timotik93. LaFamilia II went into a one goal lead. The next phase of the first 45 minutes belonged to the PEAKY BLINDERS team. Thanks to hits by Francisco de Anconia (33') and Ilyaspace (42'), the hosts recovered and went into the break with a 2-1 lead. 

In the second half of the Spanish Cup final, Koko (LaFamilia II) equalized the match by scoring a goal in 61'. When everyone thought this result would hold until the end of the 2nd half, which would have meant exta-time, ScouseR scored a goal for PEAKY BLINDERS in 95' that gave them the triumph in the tournament. The match ended with the hosts winning by a score of 3-2!

GERMAN CUP

It's time to move on to the most one-sided Domestic Cup final of the season. Such, without a doubt, was the final of the German Cup, in which the Belarus team took on the Polish DF team. The latter won the match by a score of 6-1, showing a clear advantage over their rival. Props to the Polish DF for his great score!

ITALIAN CUP

In the final of the Italian Cup, the Angry Wasps faced the Łosie w Kosmosie. The absolute favorites of this match was the team led by Lord Privy Dr4PiK - Łosie w Kosmosie. After the referee's whistle ending the first half of the match, the scoreboard showed a two goal draw. In the second half, however, the initiative was seized by the visitors, who went from a 2-2 draw to a 5-2 win!
