    I actually bid before, expecially in 2 cases:

    When i have bidded on some player 40 mins before and one tard arrives trying to snatch it when 1 min is left, hoping i'm not online: i absolutely do not bid further and as soon as the poor soul thinks i'm offline he won't add a second token in the elimination round, hence i bid last second and snatch the player for 2 T

    Same of above for when we go at 1 or 2 last ppl bidding over someone: you would be surprised of how many peeps forget to bid further on the very next round and my last second bid wins over them.

    spot on .. i always bid first .. meanwhile have to say if a player didn't attract good people to go to round 1 .. he is hardly good .. for type of players i bid on, it is always +2T maximum .. i always bid for 18-19 yo who are 5* or near 5*

    another advantage of bidding early is if your team is strong enough and may make you look like token buyer or someone who invest alot, that will scare some too, which overall may reduce the number of people bidding who will pump the price high
