Some advice do NOT go and buy a bunch of cheap 30+ yr old guys that are on the market, its a bad investment, it may be tempting but do not buy them, they just depreciate in value. Like what Willis said; expand your arena this season, and maybe buy some solid players around 20-27(8) yrs old at around the 7-20k salary. if you go and buy some 30K+ salary superstar it might be bad for your teams economy.

Thanks for the advice guys. Actually I've played before under a different account but got busy in rl, plus a bit frustrated with the team and quit. I'm going to make a determined push to stay and make this team good.

Yea, i figure this/next season is a wash but will hope to develop some young players. But i cant wait to replace the dead weight with better players. Saumong, I hear you about not wasting money with expensive oldies, though maybe start with one or two better players to carry the team till i can afford some real help. Kinda like how i built my Charazay team.

Either way, thanks for the warm greetings and best of luck to the coming season and beyond

Best of luck HeatedEnd!

I would actually recommend buying oldies just low salary oldies. You can get rid of the deadweight and find serviceable 30 year old players for really cheap. Just make sure the salaries are less than 10k (max) per player. Try to stay around the salary floor in the first couple seasons because you won't be winning a championship any time soon. But its all about finances and building an arena.

The reason id recommend starting with oldies instead of 24 - 29 y/o players is that they are cheap. You can get the same player at age 32 he would be $50 000 and at age 26 he would be $150 000... Cheap quick upgrade will hep you start winning some games quickly and it will help your finances because more people will show up at your arena. But don't spend just save, build arena, save, build arena, etc...

Thats just my take on that. If you ever got any question message me. Good luck!

New here...very new. (brother inlaw referred me)
Hoping to be here a very long time and build "KidBrant" from the ground up.

I have no idea what I am doing, right now trying to read up on the rules and strategies. I would appreciate any and all advice :)

Welcome! Here are two very helpful links that will surely lead you to BuzzerBeater Success!

Don't worrying about winning to many games this season, for a young team like you i would just focus on building arena and saving up abit of cash for the offseason to upgrade your team, save up some draft point and hope you get lucky in the draft.
