Thema: Draft

Hey, I just had last night my first ever draft in this game and didnt have any info on the players and noticed that the best players went to the last 4 teams as they probably had scouted those better.

How does the scouting work on the draft players? Do I need level 5 to be able to scout all draftable players or does level 2 scout observe 6 / day? I have done some calculations and I believe I could live with the fact that I spend around 5k/day on drafting if I get to see every players stats on draft list as I will be midtable team for 5-10 seasons since it is a slow build for the team big_smile

Re: Draft

You need a scout on level two at least. Then you can choose one player the scout should look at. After the first day he will tell you position and age of that player. On day two and three he gives you his first impressions on the players strenght and experience. To make sure these values are 100% correct he needs two more days. So a scout needs five days to scout one draft player to 100%. That means if you're able to pick this player in the draft  he will have exactly these scouted values. BUT you can stop scouting on a player at any time before that. If your scout reveals that a player is a center, but you don't need one, why scouting any further? Move on to the next, because age and position do not change, the only values that changes before you reach 100% are strenght and experience.

With all that in mind you can scout four players to 100% with a scout on level two until the draft. With a scout on level five you can scout four players simultaneously, so you can scout 16 players to 100%. I never needed 16 players to 100%, but there are several possible draft strategies.

Re: Draft

Thank you for this very good answer! That explained a lot and now I know that and will be prepared for round 2 (next season)

Does the draftable list appear when new season begins? So I can start it then. And isnt it so that I can start paying for scouts on 1st day of the season and when I dont need for drafting them anymore that season I can downgrade back to level 1 saving money the rest of the season? smile

Re: Draft

Yes, you can stop and downgrade the scout to Lv 1.
But the Draft is only every second Season.
