18 year old ?

Nordeus gets cheaper and cheaper. A year ago you quite easily find 18 year old players if you sat a while and check every fourth minute. Now I can sit a whole day and never see anyone. And then when finally one appear he’s 42%. Lot of of these things make me loose interest in this game. Negotiating they removed. They don´t want to remove abandoned teams. They don’t do anything against all tankers. Att least 8 tankers every season in my league last six months. And a lottery who will win because sometimes they lineup their best team.

Indeed, very difficult to find 18 yo players!
18yo with SA is even rare

First days of a season really bad in terms of 18 yo... Usually second week they become more common.

Some managers do not seem to have any problem finding 18 yo players. I have no clue how he did it, but these players were all there the first day of the season. Maybe he bought them when all the others were training their players like crazy...

Maybe his own young academy players he moved up at least some of them. I haven’t seen a single one 18 yo for two last hours now again. All this crap from Nordeus make players quit playing. 7 IRL friends deleted their app last month. Tierd of Nordeus only think about money and not taking care of the game.

They're all in quarantine. As coronavirus get weaker they will appear on auctions... Nordeus is forcing us to train those ****ty academy players...

Yes that is my thought also. They want us to spend more tokens on the academy players. And that training u can buy for them is crap. Im thinking of deleting my three teams for the first time now. Their greed for my is getting bigger and bigger. Every new ”improvenent” of this game is actually worse for us players.

I had hope for Youth Academy, that ended really bad. Youth academy by far is the worst.

Yeah they distroyed the auction sistem, negotions, scouts and even daily/weekly assistent offers. [emoji58]

Exactly they destroy everything and makes it worse, all for making us to buy tokens. It’s called greed. And one thing that makes me dislike this game also is: I buy tokens with real money, so tokens are real money. I buy a player on auction with tokens. I train him and make him better. Then I sell him and I get useless cash, yes the cash is useless after you upgraded the arena to Max. But all the tokens someone is paying for MY player Nordeus takes them all, that’s my tokens and for me that is stealing real money from me. Of course I shall have most of those tokens. The player is mine.

Nobody buys your player. That was only possible with negotiations. This is another feature that Nordeus destroyed.

There is no 18 you worth buying in the auction at all. Look whole day today again. For four days Ive seen 2 worth buying but then I stop bidding When they reac( 50 tokens. They have done this only so we most use so many tokens to train academy players and that training is as useless as buying PT training. Seriously thinking about quiting this game now.

For all the seniors who had much better experience when negotiations worked wonders and there were lots of 18yo available all the time, it is indeed a lot tougher than before when cost of FTs was far lower and availability was a lot more common. It may also mean the long terms savings of Ts and greens in the years before would turn out to be very useful now.

In a way it also means staying competitive as a freeloader becomes a lot more difficult as well, which suits how TE exactly wants in making paying players feel like they could pay more to gain a significant advantage. Saying that, lots of freeloaders still do as well as before.

For a level 8 freeloader novice like myself, having learnt so much from the seniors’ threads makes life as a starter being very easy in competitions. Player acquisition has been extremely tough and T-pricy since day 1 (and especially horrible at the start of levels 3 and 4), and so maybe kind of get used to how hard it is when there were nothing easier/better to be compared with.

With FTs, since the availability becomes so rare that I have already ‘learnt’ that a perfect FT (ie. very close to max value, with SA, and ideally with extra position) is worth as much as a full season’s budget (or more if that particular missing link is irreplaceable). Personally I will still keep bidding until getting the player, unless it is some astronomical 100+T (Yea, I know it is tempting fate to say that and some may indeed just keep bidding over 120+ or so ;) ). Would like things to be a bit easier, but then it will only get harder.

Youth is definitely not worth the hard-earned resources we have to put in. Would rather pay for a 19yo recommended player that its value is transparent and position&skills are surely what we need.

The only way to keep up is to stay extremely competitive in platinum association and do well in events...or pay for a monthly card to make up the difference. :rolleyes: ;)

True they probably just delete them....

now its extremely hard to get those

yeah, it took me 2 days (day 1 and day 2) to get all of them. For some unknown reason, I couldnt get MCs, that position was last to fill. Most of them were 2 and 4 star players, good newbies to become mutantinos in 4 seasons time. I have to say, that every 8th roll had 18 yo players, total nightmare

And even for low star players, I still have spent 60 tokens + 11 for name change as those guys will be pure symphony next 12 season or so. Attachment 132391

This season easier again to find 18 yo FT? Where I was not able to find a very good FT DC or DMC last season and had to use second tier FT for replacement on this position, I was looking for a striker this season (to train next season) and I found 2 very good 1st class FT prospects in the first few days of the season.
Also I was feeling like seeing a lot more 18 yo compared to last season when watching auctions... Would be a good thing, I can now spend my token again. :D
What is your experience?

I've found 3 18 yo fast trainerers easily, but a lot more came my way in positions i didn't want... i find it dificult people can't find one a hole day... gues its a question of luck

I found 1 FT DC, 10 slow ST's and AM's. All 18 years, had a lot problem to sell them, had to put minimum price.

If you put 3x higher (so normally around 90M) they sell quite ok.
