Does anyone happens to know that if Nordgens must be youth 18~19 or they could be 20+ years old even older? Can they have special abilities?

That is what I thought but not quite sure.
Thanks, and one more add is that their team names are always quite normal with adjectives or something like that.
The other type of young high value, never-played-before players from non-Nordgen teams are the Token Academy players. Managers that don't rename their teams can produce these Pseudo Nordgens but there is nothing to fear from them.
Yes, they will without hesitation eat you

One of the Buffs Players got booked for alleged biting today. CSI Miami were called in to prove the case. Unfortunately, they could not prove it as it was discovered the player was actually born in Irvine meaning
1. they have no teeth; and
2. they all share the same DNA
BuffsMad said later "Who cares about proof, he's from Irvine, so I've sacked him".
PS. Apologies to anyone from Irvine, didn't meant to Dent-ure pride. >.<
there are 3 source of "virgine" player :
Nordeus creat from nowhere, appear in transferliste if you buy him you are the 1st to use him.
Nordeus creat from an young academy. Only you can sign him, otherwise he go for free agent
Nordeus creat from nowhere but appear in scout
So: They are ALL nordeus gens, no different. the one that you are mentioning is the 1st case.
but, when a manager put his player in TL, you can't determine whether they were signed from each case 1 or 2 or 3.
Yeah completely agree.
Share some trivial experiences to use scout players: when people sign scouts, please please do not sign anyone 2 points below 7 stars, that sucks.
If you really need him, sign the one only 1 point below 7 stars and young 22-24 yrs old. They are always excellent.
People have been in different opinions on signing scouts, I am not trying to argue but would like to share what I learn.
Its a difficult balance. ;) Scout market purchases come with higher stats out of the box and an SA. They will however decline over the seasons without extra resources.
Young fast training NordGens (or NordGems ;) ) come off the market with lower stats but can improve quickly with extra resources and will maintain that for longer.
Performance will obviously be the key. But one issue is if you can get NordGems cheaply they are more disposable so can be tested and sold if not up to the job, not so easy for Scouts and so you'll find yourself managing their form more.
I've used Scout Market players before and thought of them as Impact Players. My best MC ever was a Scout purchase but lasted only 4 Seasons. I have a NordGem MC atm without SA and he seems equally good and will last longer for no extra cost....or not, who knows.
For me, the changes to the cost, Q and Skill Distribution reduced the advantage of them. I see them as a luxury item but atm its not a luxury I'd go for. For some they might still be considered a good option.
But it really depends where your pitching your team, your ambitions and expectations. It also depends on Token budget.
PS. I've saved a copy of a CL SF match of a team with 4 seasons worth of Scouts in it should I ever need reminding that Scout Market is not the answer to everything.
Nordgen and scout/list players are the best investment for a competitive team.
I prefer nordgen because first you try and then you buy.
With scouts and T academy players it's the opposite :o
Good response, we are on the same page and the answer (from my perspective) is: who knows.
I so far have bought 4 scouts. 2 of them are 1 point below 7stars and they are great in league and pretty good in CL, not good in cup performance.
Other 2 are 2 points below 7 stars and they are really bad, no need to talk about them.
I did this not only to use them but also want to explore something. You are right, depends on the ambition I have, which is a triple, I think I should stay with Nordgens and bet on luck, instead of buying scouts then get frustrated.
Like I repeated before, I just want to share some experiences I have so far, just in case other people repeat the lessons that I have learned.
Thank you all for all responses, I am ready to go for the next season.
