Mythbusters of top eleven

[nikolgiorgos]

Ok, let's go to the second part.
Is there any meaning to give sp to the three categories of skills, depending from the position of the player ?
It's something that I have my doubts. I mention this in that older thread
http://forum.topeleven.com/top-eleve...answers-3.html
post #21 (which inspired me to start this thread).
The logic (and many players of the game) says that for an Attacker (winger/ST) most sp must go to Attack and M&P skills.
For a defender and GK, to defense and M&P and for a MC, more balanced.
But my questions are
Why when we 're buying a scout list player or a nordgen (who have almost equals skills) they 're performing good (or bad) as another player who have more bonus on "their" categories ?
Why when we 're giving a lot of sp to a new nordgen/fast trainer in his speciality (attack skill points to a ST) he isn't improving a lot ?
So for me it's still the question, are skill categories important or it's just Quality 65> Q59 > Q52 ?

* meanwhile, I use this method of sp distribution but don't know if it's a Myth.

Some saying that if you have two games in one day, you can't win both.
Obviously it's a MYTH !

[nikolgiorgos]

Some saying that if playing vs a weaker team and you watch the game, it's more possible for a troll result or in other words,
if you 're watching your game you don't have any advantage
or if your watching the game, then you 're playing against the AI of the game, which is harder than not watching it.
If nobody of the managers are present, then the game engine taking the factors that affect the result (quality of the teams, formations/orders, morale/condition) and gives a more reasonable result.
(as a friend Shwan Chalabi mentioned in that thread http://forum.topeleven.com/top-eleve...i-can-win.html ).
Let's see :
My alt team, RINOKEROS played two games in the CH.L. against a weaker team.
In the first game, I was watching and I won but hardly.
In the second game, I wasn't there but my team won very easy with a 6-1. Maybe is there something real here ?





But in another game I had today, playing vs a much weaker team and wasn't there, I had a draw
I had better q team, players in a good form, full morale and condition, the min. victory bonus, the right formation, ball possession, double shots but the game engine didn't give me the victory.



So, I think it's a Myth.
You can have a bad day, odd roll dice, troll/fix result even if you're present or absent.

You need to have the moral of your players high! Big Mith!

I dont give moral boosters for any of my players in 10 seasons.
Last season my MC, with 3* won Best performer, top assister, and didnt won top scorer because got injured at the end of the season, but was leading the table until then.

This season my ML, with 2*, is leading the table of top assisters, and is in 3rd place of top performer, 0,2 points behind first.

Moral is cosmetic!

And my players keep getting 7/8/9 and even 10 in ratings.

a big LOL here
I have some players in my team NIK, 0T academy players for dropping the quality.
In two games of my cup (against easy teams) I had to use one MC -for injuries/cards.







Well, he did great, with morale zero

Myth: Players bought after the group stage of CL will never rate higher than a 6 in their first knockout stage appearance.

All 3 of my players that were sold post group stage that played CL games for their new squad rated 5,5,6.

Myth: Players bought after the group stage of CL will never rate higher than a 6 in their first knockout stage appearance.

well, that's a unique case, we don't have so many cases (or it's something that bothering players of the game).
But if you noticed that happened in some more seasons, it would be interesting to post some pics.

[nikolgiorgos]

From a game I had today.
Those two defenders had almost zero morale. They played very good.





but my 1' million $ question @ Dman2pt

If you had to play in a CH.L. or Cup final and your GK had that day a poor morale, would you gave him 1-2 extra boosters or not ?

[Killroy]

Of course you would give him 2 blue packs. Even if the effect is marginal like 1-2% The thing with this game is, that it is totally unclear what certain things do and we will never ever get an explanation of the developpers. This leads me to think that the engine is just a pile of crap and that we tinker around with it, thinking that we might have some influence but in reality....... Still enjoying the game, but don't give it too much attention anymore.

Myth or fact: Wingers have been changed since the last patch. In my hexagon team my wingers are extremely effective. And I do mean extremely effective as in 70% of the goals are scored by them of lately (and a lot of assist) in the last 10 games. My 6 star striker with one on one ability hardly ever scores. He hardly ever gets into a position where he can use one on one at all.
In my second team most of the scoring is done by my MR and AMC. My six striker with FK SA is only at the third spot. Strange stuff.
