6/ ANALYSIS OF REWARD CHANGES IN THE CARD COLLECTION (PART 3)
CHANGES ON THE HORIZON: WHAT WILL DECEMBER 18 BRING?
On 18 December 2023, significant changes will come into force that may affect the game in a larger way. For example, they could result in changes to club rankings, market turbulence and mass transitions from 1 leagues to SL. These new regulations will have a huge impact on the dynamics of the games, raising the level of competition and introducing uncertainty about the future performance of individual teams.All these changes will make the coming months a time of intense struggle on many levels, from the pitch to the transfer scenes. How these revolutionary reforms will affect the competition remains an open question, but one thing is certain - excitement and surprises await, the likes of which we have not experienced before.
The first major update is the change in the history bonus that we receive for completing 7 history items. Until now, the MID bonus was 375 PTS and the TOP bonus was 1100 PTS. On 18 December this will be changed to respectively: 850 PTS and 2350 PTS.
This may encourage some players to go 'higher level' and craft the Historical set, so Material Fragments (especially yellow and blue) may increase by a few credits.
There are also plans to change the basis of Common Items (Jersey, Shorts, Boots, Socks) and their upgrade bonus. The upgrade possibility will be increased up to lvl 35! Owners of Historical sets, will certainly be pleased with this change due to the instantaneous increase in PTS. This may introduce more competition in SL and 1 leagues, and Historic sets will become even more profitable, not only because of the passive bonuses they offer, but also because of the high UM. Unfortunately, the conditions for making a TOP item will change. From now on, you will have to upgrade a MID item to 25 lvl, and not just to 20 lvl as before.
Players playing in SL are to be rewarded with higher daily bonuses. For the first season in SL, one can receive 14,000 Energy and Golden Balls and 84 Boosters, and for the sixth season (in a row) up to 21,000 Energy and Golden Balls and 140 Boosters! This may encourage some 1L players to definitely go to SL so that they can continue to progress at a good pace and reap high bonuses.
While we're still on SL, let's move on to the change in the Pack rewards for the top teams, Domination and Challenger. The rewards in the form of Special Items (Shin Pads) have been completely abandoned, and the focus has been placed on resources to help with development - Energy, Golden Balls, Packs of Cards, Success Balls, Boosters and Boosts to help with more effective training (XP 200% for 72 hours and 48 hours).
The final change is the rewards in collections. Boosts have been added to them in the form of 200% XP for 2 hours, a 10% energy and euro discount on training for 2h and 50% more euros from work. In addition, you will be able to hit Card Packs, and better Success Crystals (Gold, Platinum and Historical). In the three collections, the main prize has been changed to 1,000 boosters, 2,500 boosters and the Triumph Ball.
We can see that Ban was not being lip service when he said that in the packs they wanted to put resources for development rather than Items. Instead of Shin Pads in the Pack for top3 SL we could hit 125,000 Gold Balls for example. I think it is only a matter of time before there are changes to the rewards in other Packs e.g. Training Champion, Tricks, Domestic, European or Conqueror Packs.
What do you think of these changes? What are you most and least satisfied with?

DODO BLOG
Good day to all, dear readers of the magazine, I welcome you in the next issue. As always, I'm glad to see you on the Dodo blog. In this article, we will discuss all the interesting news that happened this week. Relax and enjoy reading the magazine. I hope you enjoy everything.
Black Friday
This week was Black Friday, which brought a lot of interesting bonuses and promotions to the game, which we will talk about now.
Immediately added a lot of special packages for every taste and color. So those who wanted to buy had a very large choice. Even those who don't donate had a chance to buy some interesting things.
For the first time, a subscription has been added to the game that you can buy every month. The composition includes a lot of cans and various small things, but in fact, for 23 euros you buy three assistants for a month and 3-5 good drinks, and 5 packs of cards, and the rest are weak consumables. But it's worth noting that even for this price, it's a good deal.
Double awards
Where to go without double awards in packs? That's what the developers thought and added double rewards to the Monster Pack and the Legendary Pack, and also added them to the store at a very reasonable price of 100 credits apiece, which allowed many to fatten them in large quantities. And to get a lot of big awards and jackpots in triple size, but not everyone was so lucky, for example, I opened all the packs that beat in the magazine for 100 credits and my maximum reward was two drinks of fourth-level rocket fuel. Not bad, huh? Well, as they say, you'll be lucky next time.
How do you like such promotions on Black Friday? Is everyone happy with such discounts? In my humble opinion, all these proposals are a very good thing after a long and costly event that recently ended. So to speak, we have spent all the resources here that are new and more for you, but only for your money. A good board style from the developers. We conclude with the Black Friday theme in our article and go a little further.
A little bit about the matches
Now let's look at the leagues and teams. At the time of writing, nine league matches have already been played. We will add some statistics to our article. In the Super League, the club We Call It Soccer is in first place playing without defeats, but once they drew.
In the League of England, Radość Wygrywania and Go Complain go without defeats, both played once in a draw. They will play against each other on Tuesday, that is, when the article comes out that the match will be played, and most of all one of the clubs will lose points and win the first defeat of the season, but there may be a draw that will not change anything.
In the Spanish league, the first and without defeat is the club Polish DF. Who conceded only two goals. Unfortunately, there are no competitors in this league for the Polish DF club and they will quietly take all the awards this season.
There are also two clubs in the German league that go undefeated - Hakuna Matata and Dream State. They are going without losing points at all, but they haven't had a personal meeting yet, so everything is still ahead here.
In the Italian league, two clubs Łosie w Kosmosie and Rayo eSports Academy also go without losing points. The Łosie w Kosmosie club stands out a little because they conceded only one goal. And here is the same situation that it will be very difficult for them to form a rivalry.
This concludes our article. And by tradition, I wish every player good luck with your tasks and more good rewards for you in packs. And I wish each club less unpredictable results in matches. Thank you all for reading, I hope you enjoyed it.

THE FURY FC
The history of our FootballTeam has countless great players who marked an era and teams that were unforgettable. Today we are going to remember one of the biggest teams on the Brazilian server in 2020-2022, which was TheFuryFC.
It all started in 2016, when former player FShinoda and his cousin created the name for a clan from another online game. With the launch of FootballTeam in Brazil, on 10/19/2020, FShinoda created the club together with his personal friends. Always maintaining respect and humility, the team grew and attracted new players. However, there was an impasse: FShinoda's friends were not evolving like the others who arrived, so he made the difficult decision to remove them. Even in the first season, big names arrived who made history on the Brazilian server such as kNedaTV, who was the team's designer, and Rafael Cunha who later became president of the team and made it an incredible power. Today Rafael Cunha has his card immortalized in the game.
Speaking of Rafael Cunha, a curious story happened shortly before he transferred to Fury. He had a pre-contract signed with São Paulo FC, which would later become the successful Mighty Ducks, but as São Paulo is the name of a local club in Brazil and Rafael supports Santos FC, São Paulo's rival, he ended up not transferring and went to the FShinoda project.
Midfielder Rafael Cunha was the main player for several seasons. As he attracted a lot of attention for being a very evolved player, he always managed to bring the best reinforcements to the team to continue in the elite, seeking titles. Cunha started his career as a striker, and then moved to Midfield and his numbers were impressive! In more than 1300 matches there were more than 1200 goals and 700 assists. There were more than 100 tackles and he received around 45 yellow cards and was never sent off the field.
In an interview with the newspaper at the time, Cunha said that "they could give more value to the team's training and create the world cup within the server." When asked about matches between different servers, he highlighted that "playing against other servers is not interesting, there are much more evolved players on other servers."
Fury was the team to beat. The biggest winner on the Brazilian server, the team frequently won 3 trophies per season. Its trophy gallery includes several Super Leagues, Tournament of Champions, American Tournament, Brazilian Cup, Argentine Cup, Mexican Cup and Colombian Cup. On average, the team always had half of the squad in the top 10 of the best player rankings, and all 20 players on the squad were always in the top 100 of the rankings.
Fury's big rival was Scullachados FC, who sometimes managed to defeat their opponents and even shook the market by signing goalkeeper BrunoSRN, who was at Fury. Questioned by the press at the time, Bruno said that "This season I had the utopian idea of creating a fair Superleague where everyone can enter and compete for something, but the war is usually always between two teams, so it ended up that the game improved the reward of the SL champion and it turned out it wasn't worth leaving..."
The statistics are impressive with more than 700 victories and more than 88% success rate. The average was 3.6 goals per match.
Do you remember an amazing team that no longer exists? What about legendary players? If you have stories to share, you can contact me inbox. We have a lot of stories to tell...
May the Christmas event arrive soon! I can't wait! Leave your comment and see you next week. Good luck and happy gaming to everyone!

INTERVIEW WITH JOSUÉ PESQUEIRA
Hello all virtual footballers. In today's holiday edition, I had the pleasure of interviewing a member of the Rayo eSportsteam. I would like to introduce you to the player Josué Pesqueira and I invite you to read the interview.
Tell us something about yourself. What's your name, what do you do, any hobbies?
My name is Gracjan, I am an entrepreneur and I run a business.My everyday hobbies are esports games, music and sports. I play in the e-sports football team Poland Crew in the ea fc24 game as a goalkeeper, this is a new team for me this season due to the previous edition of ea under the name fifa23, I was a two-time Polish champion on the Xbox scene in the colors of SavageTeam but the current scene and the addition crossplay for the game allowed the players of the country to unite and thanks to which we will find out who will become the Polish champion at the end of the season.
Why do you have such a nickname and what made you start your adventure with FT?
The name of the game comes from the love for the club of the capital of Poland, which is Legia Warszawa, it is the most successful club in Polish football and this team is currently played by Josue Pesqueira, the captain of this team.
What are your ambitions as a club? Stay in SuperLeague, win some Cups?
The ambitions we have for the club are continuous development, we want to make progress season by season, although the competition is strong in the Super League, I am currently working a lot to ensure that the club benefits from it.
You've been playing Rayo eSports for a long time. How do you rate this club?
I have been playing for Rayo for some time, I changed the club's colors for one season due to lack of ambition, as the first league was already dominated by us, I won the championship and the cup two seasons in a row but I came back after this season because we wanted to be promoted to the Super League and that we made it.
What would you change/add/remove in FT?
I would definitely remove tricks, an unpopular mode for players with poor rewards, but what I would add to the game, I think it's time to add national teams
What advice would you give to a new player just starting out?
I can advise a new player to play matches much more actively, attend club training sessions, take advantage of weekend events and special events, and be very patient with the game engine.
Do you have enemies here? Individual units or maybe entire teams?
Unfortunately, I don't have any enemies here individually, but as a team in the first league, we had two Russian teams that kept crying at the game engine when they lost.
If you were to leave Rayo eSports for some reason, what team would you target?
If I were to leave, unfortunately I would rather delete my game account than leave. I have already made this mistake and I am not going anywhere anymore.
What do you think about the addition of cards and the added bonus of a card slot?
Definitely one of the more interesting added options allows the player to collect cards like panini football cards, only here it works better because I like the way we exchange collections and after exchanging a certain number of collections, we get space for additional skills for the character, but you have to remember that it works this is only for collections not listed in career.
Would you like to greet someone in particular?
Greetings to the entire Rayo eSports team and my virtual pro gaming Poland Crew esports team.
Thank you 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. See you next week!

We are still at the beginning of the preparations, but if everything goes well and becomes official, it will be the biggest end-of-season event! You can also have the best player of the week award every week where we will show the highlighted player of the week, be it goalkeeper, defender, midfielder, midfielder or striker! In addition to all this, there may also be an award for best coach, but because many clubs are coached by presidents, it may be more difficult for this award to happen, as they are relatively actual!
Electric Apples, currently in the 4th Italian division, have been running a very competitive campaign seeking second place in the table, the team currently led by President Następca, have been enjoying the club's performance, but the current commander has been preparing to reinforce a sector that at the moment he is considered more fragile in the team, negotiations with no athlete have yet been advanced, but the club's analysis team has been looking for options on the market, especially young prospects who are at the beginning of their!
FC Wicher have been having an excellent season in 2A Italy with the club being in the lead without having lost any matches at the moment, achieving the feat of being one of the best campaigns in all the leagues, the club which is led by President Massto is very satisfied with the work of coach Maniaczek, the President has assembled a great team that has been having an exceptional campaign in the hands of the current coach, but the squad is not yet completely finalized this season, the President, after observing the team's behavior, noticed a weakness in the defensive sector and have already been preparing to invest heavily with the aim of completely closing the team this season, with rumors that some names are already in the club's sights but the names have not yet been revealed. In principle, the board's intention is to sign 2 defenders and 1 midfielder, or 1 defender and 2 midfielders with one of them being defensive and the other more creative in plays, with the arrival of possible names on the board's list, it is likely that the club will become the biggest wage bill in the Italian league!
Magister FC currently in 2B England, is not going through a good phase with the club going through a series of crisis, the institution led by President Gilberto has been struggling to escape the relegation zone of the Championship being in last place without having won any victory yet, the team In addition to being experiencing technical difficulties, it is also not going through a good moment in terms of tactics, with the club currently without a coach in charge of the team.

ANALYSIS OF REWARD CHANGES IN THE CARD COLLECTION (PART 3)
Hello, this is Matushevsky!
Last week I started a series that aims to show you how rewards in collections have changed. Last week's two parts, in which I analyzed the first 8 collections, showed that the rewards were unfortunately changed for the worse. Today I will present you another 4 collections. What will be the conclusions? We'll see.
9/ HANOWAY: 660 Fame Points
Previously it was:
4,000 Golden Balls - 1000 GB costs 180 credits, so the value of 4,000 GB is approximately 720 credits
1x Dealer Drink III - they are missing on the market, but the price should be around 20 credits
5x Millionaire Drink I - they are missing on the market, but the price should be around 40 credits, so 40 x 5 = 200 credits.
12 Team Points - no change, not included in the value.
In total, this collection was worth approximately 940 credits.
It is now:
1,000 Golden Balls - 180 credits,
1x 10% reduction of Energy costs of Auto Training for 1 day - assuming training on a given day at 33%, this gives us a saving of about 700 energy, i.e. 3 energy packs = 90 credits. If we use this 50% training bonus, we receive the approximate equivalent of 4,000 energy, i.e. 15 energy packs = 450 credits
12 Team Points - no change, not included in the value.
To sum up: the previous value of the collection was about 940 credits, the current value of the collection is in the range of 270 - 630 credits (depending on the amount of trainings done thanks to the bonus). The value of the collection has decreased by almost 40-70%
10/ BULL FIGHTER: 1020 Fame Points
Previously it was:
3x Green Crystal of Success - 3 x 150 credits = 450 credits,
4x Productivity Drink II - they are missing on the market, but the price should be around 20 credits, so 4 x 20 = 80 credits
1x Dealer Drink III - they are missing on the market, but the price should be around 20 credits.
18 Team Points - no change, not included in the value.
In total, this collection was worth approximately 550 credits.
It is now:
2,500 Golden Balls - 1000 GB costs 180 credits, so the value of 2,500 GB is approximately 450 credits,
1,500 Energy - this is approximately 5.5 energy packs, i.e. the equivalent of 165 credits,
1x 50% more Euro from work for 24h - a bonus that is difficult to value. Let's assume that we click on a job 5-10 times a day for 1058 energy. According to this bonus, we gain 9 million x 5 = 45 million EUR, 10 times 90 million EUR. 1 billion EUR costs 2,000 credits. Let's assume for simplicity that we gain 5-10% from it, i.e. 100 - 200 credits.
18 Team Points - no change, not included in the value.
To sum up: the previous value of the collection was about 550 credits, the current value of the collection is in the range of 715 - 815 credits (depending on the amount of work done thanks to the bonus). The value of the collection has increased by almost 30-40%
11/ PLAYERS WHO LIKE TO DRINK: 180 Fame Points
Previously it was:
250 Golden Balls - 1000 GB costs 180 credits, so the value of 250 GB is approximately 45 credits
2,000 Energy - this is approximately 7.5 energy packs, i.e. the equivalent of 225 credits
5x Millionaire Drink I - they are missing on the market, but the price should be around 40 credits, so 40 x 5 = 200 credits.
3 Team Points - no change, not included in the value.
In total, this collection was worth approximately 470 credits.
It is now:
10x Silver Pack - 40 credits
10x Free Key - 10 gold package, i.e. 70 credits,
3 Team Points - no change, not included in the value.
To sum up: the previous value of the collection was about 470 credits, the current value of the collection is about 110 credits. Unfortunately, the value of the collection decreased by over 75%!
12/ SEMPER FIDELIS: 1050 Fame Points
Previously it was:
1x Red Crystal of Success - 490 credits
4x Productivity Drink II - they are missing on the market, but the price should be around 20 credits, so 4 x 20 = 80 credits
5x Millionaire Drink I - they are missing on the market, but the price should be around 40 credits, so 40 x 5 = 200 credits.
18 Team Points - no change, not included in the value.
In total, this collection was worth approximately 770 credits.
It is now:
4,875 Energy - this is approximately 17.5 energy packs, i.e. the equivalent of 525 credits,
10x Free Key - 10 gold package, i.e. 70 credits,
1x 10% reduction of Energy costs of Auto Training for 1 day - assuming training on a given day at 33%, this gives us a saving of about 700 energy, i.e. 3 energy packs = 90 credits. If we use this 50% training bonus, we receive the approximate equivalent of 4,000 energy, i.e. 15 energy packs = 450 credits
18 Team Points - no change, not included in the value.
To sum up: the previous value of the collection was about 770 credits, the current value of the collection is in the range of 685 - 1035 credits (depending on the amount of trainings done thanks to the bonus). I estimate that the value of the collection is at the same level.
Summary. Collections containing crystals not only did not lose their value, but even slightly increased. This shows how worthless the crystals were as a prize from the collection. The remaining collections reduce the value of the prizes by up to 3/4.

THE TIRING CHALLENGE OF PARTICIPATING IN MULTIPLE COMPETITIONS: A LOOK AT THE JOURNEY OF LEAGUE CLUBS
Good morning my dears, how are you? How was this weekend's event? Did BlackFriday also hug you? Were they able to evolve? There are some tired people on my team who don't know what training is, I try to talk to the group, but no one understands what training is, what to do, you know, they're destined to be a small-legged team! But as you all know, I didn't come here for that, today I'm going to talk about the tiring journey of those who play in the league, so are you ready? Let's go.
League 1 football is known for its intensity and passion, and this characteristic is reflected in the participation of clubs in multiple competitions simultaneously. One of the most challenging scenarios is when teams face League 1, along with other competitions, such as the League Cup and the Champions Tournament, or European Tournament. Although this journey is exciting for fans, players and coaching staff, reality often reveals profound fatigue and physical and mental challenges.
The format of the league 1 football calendar often requires clubs to play decisive matches at short intervals, which can result in physical and mental exhaustion, like yesterday at my current club, I had 3 games without counting with the friendly and one of them was against the top 2 in Italy. The demand for consistent performance in all competitions places tremendous pressure on players, who need to maintain a high level of performance throughout the entire season.
Firstly, the physical aspect is one of the biggest challenges faced by players. Adequate recovery between games is essential, but the tight schedule often limits the time available for rest and recovery. Injuries become a constant threat, and players often have to deal with muscle pain and accumulated fatigue. The resulting physical overload can compromise performance in training and, consequently, in matches.
In addition to the physical exhaustion, the mental burden is equally significant. Players face not only the pressure of representing their clubs, but also the expectations of fans eager to win. Stress management and the ability to stay focused become essential skills on such a demanding journey. The intense routine of training, traveling and games can affect emotional balance, directly influencing performance on the field.
The logistics of facing simultaneous competitions is also a challenging factor. Frequent trips and movements between different cities and even countries require quick adaptation to the game conditions and time zone. Efficient squad management, with adequate player rotation, becomes crucial to avoid exhaustion and ensure continued high-level performance.
Furthermore, the tactical challenge is evident. Game strategies need to be adjusted according to the characteristics of each competition, considering the quality of the opponents and the specific circumstances of each tournament. The coach's ability to manage the squad and make strategic choices becomes a determining element for success on multiple fronts.
In short, playing in three competitions at the same time, especially in Brazil, is an incredibly challenging journey. Physical, mental and emotional exhaustion is a reality that players face daily. However, it is this intensity that also makes football in League 1 so exciting and unpredictable, captivating the attention of passionate fans and admirers. The balance between glory and fatigue is a fine line that defines the trajectory of clubs that dare to face the challenge of shining in multiple competitions simultaneously, a great challenge for the coach!
That's it my consecrated ones, I'll stay here and see you next time!

LET'S TALK ABOUT TACTICS!
ABOUT SUPER TEAM PROJECTS
This week, I'm going to talk about a crucial part of team management strategy, perhaps the most important of all: the social strategy. It's essential for building strong teams with the intention of achieving things. I say it's the most difficult because, as you'll see, in this game, to build strong teams, you need to attract strong individuals. Each player is a person, and every team comprises 20 individuals. Unlike in manager games where you can buy and sell players for economic gain, here, it's not about economics but about your abilities to build a strong, solid project rooted in convincing players committed to a vision. It's about surrounding yourself with high OVR (overall rating), as friends might be plentiful, but high OVR individuals are scarce. You need to know how to offer them support and the right project for them to choose you over the numerous other teams in this game. So, let's dive into some tips to make it easier for you to assemble something good and see where it leads!
FIRST RULE: DON'T GET DISCOURAGED
The crucial thing in building a project is to ensure your team isn’t just one among many. Imagine trying to recruit 10 of the best players on the server (we'll get back to this topic later); you can't be the team full of bots or lacking overall rating among its members. If that's the case, here's an important message: "DON'T GET DISCOURAGED." You can aim for smaller projects. For instance, your ambition could be to enter the EUROPEAN TOURNAMENT or target securing the 3rd position in your league!
If you achieve that, your next project could very well be winning the league, which can undoubtedly be achieved after several 3rd or 2nd place finishes. Powerful players will want to help you achieve it once they see it. A good project in this case would be convincing them to assist you in winning the national cup and becoming league champions. Imagine the satisfaction for your club and these powerful individuals in being able to achieve that!
In this case, you can share your story, coming from humble beginnings, frequently being among the top 3 teams in the league, striving to improve. But without enhancing your social skills, you won't succeed. These positions are for people who aren't shy. If you're shy, focus on something else!
IF YOUR PROJECT IS MORE AMBITIOUS
If your aim is to build a highly competitive team, understand that your team's foundation needs to be robust. This isn't for everyone; it depends on your goals—medium or high.
If your medium-term goal, for example, is to win the triple, your team should inherently be capable of winning your country's first division and the national cup without assistance. You'd need reinforcements to win the European tournament.
If your ambitions are higher, it implies your team is a super league team. You'd need reinforcements to reach the top spot in the game, although that's challenging since there's usually a team already holding that position, equipped with all those players. Why should they move to your team? It's a very tough goal to achieve.
PLANNING
Planning a project like this takes time. The first recommendation is to try to build a solid base. Once you have this solid base, try to talk to as many friends as possible and see who among them is known, a friend, or gets along well with someone of high OVR.
At this point, your aim should be to have this known person connect you with this high-level individual. When you talk to them, try explaining your project. Understand this: these individuals often receive invitations to various teams all the time. Don't waste their time; approach them with a serious proposal.
If you're fortunate and one of those you speak to loves your proposal, you've found the key to potentially building a significant project in the future.
Obviously, this person won't come alone because until they see your proposal as serious and all the players are in place, they won't leave their current team. So, ask them or those you've spoken to, to share your project with friends or close acquaintances from the game's seasons, who are as good or even better players.
MONEY ATTRACTS MORE MONEY
There's a saying that money attracts money. In this game, great players are attracted by other great players. Understand that if you get one of them, the others will follow. Approach the people you've been talking to with the news that significant players are interested in the project, that there's already a solid base of players, and a small but strong group of impressive players that would complement your project excellently. If this new colleague with spectacular statistics joins, try recruiting them. If you can't, ask them to support the best players you've already recruited to lend credibility and show seriousness.
MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE
Don't think this is impossible. I've often built impressive teams to win a lot of things.
We're from Argentina and started playing on the LATAM server. There, we built projects several times aiming to win the European tournament, then called the American tournament, or to win the Champions or the super league on different occasions. In fact, once, we assembled an incredibly powerful team that came close to winning the super league. What a fun journey it was! Although we faced "The Killers," a team that was literally on another level, regardless of this anecdote, what I want to convey is the message: don't feel disappointed if it doesn't work the first time. It took me around five seasons to assemble the first team. Once we had that team, we made great and powerful friends. The second time we assembled the team for the super league, it was much easier to recruit everyone; we just had to agree on the season, and they came.
So, I'm not talking from a theoretical point of view; I've taken this from practice, executed it, and enjoyed it immensely.
WHAT TO DO WITH THE REST OF YOUR PLAYERS WHILE THE STAR PROJECT LASTS
This is a delicate issue since teams consist of 20 players. It's clear that when you create an important project inviting powerful people, not all 20 can stay. So, when you plan an important project, you should know in advance who needs to step aside temporarily, assuring them that they'll be considered again once the project ends. It's crucial to have a B team, a youth team, or a team that accommodates players who feel part of your team's player family but, due to OVR, don't make it to the main squad. Keep the family united in a chat or a Discord channel, making everyone feel part of the project, even if they're not part of the main team!
See you next week!
