or maybe even just a raise of the salary floors, this can be done this off-season, which means next season the BB managers will already enjoy it.
No, it cannot!!!

F@cking learn to announce changes well in advance, as it was when BB used to be ran by outstanding minds. I have already planned my budget for next season (and acted upon those plans) with the current salary floors in mind. I am sure many others have done so as well.

The 15% bonus can be introduced next season because it is not an expense. Yet I would not do it either 'cause again - planning is involved. I might wanna run a team with one player with a salary right below the salary floor and a bunch of 1k salary guys, just to maximize tanking. For the tenth time - When you introduce changes, you need to give us time to adjust!

I mean I kinda feel obligated to vote against a merchandise boost based on a single player purely because that inherently disadvantages the playstyle I like to use, (strong bench players and 5 good-but-not-great starters) It also directly powers up the teams my lineup is meant to counter (ones with a lot of strength concentrated in 1-2 players).

But I also welcome the challenge of going against the grain. I chose this playstyle because it allows me to compete effectively despite having 15% less than the league average budget (I haven't finished my arena yet, team is too new), and I really don't think a $5K difference (between what I'd receive and what most others in my league would get) in a budget of over $300K really is gonna make or break anyone.

Tl;Dr: Against it bc it nerfs my playstyle, but won't be too upset if it happens bc it seems like a relatively small change.

Giving extra merch for one player only, discourages managers from stacking 3-5 of them in one team and encourage teams to buy their own star, instead of being a mid-low table team having no reason to have a star.
So getting additional 50k (for a 250k salary star) instead of 30k (for a regular top tier player @ ~150k salary) or essentially an additional 20k per week is supposed to "encourage teams to buy their own star" and doing so decrease their performance levels cause we all know that the BB game engine rewards balance?

Seriously? I don't feel encouraged...
