    I chose all except other and sentimental. When I'm in all 3 competitions I ditch the lowb players and have 22 functional players that I pare down as I get KOed from competitions. Most dedicated players on here don't rotate that much. I rarely play a player more than 30 games a season. I've had 12 injuries over the last 2 seasons and 5 days and like not having to burn red packs. This season is different as I've spent a lot on young players and would be wasting my time if I wasn't feeding the highest value players greens.
    Here's a stat sheet from a league winning season of the past.
