Aleš Verh ↓dropped↓ in Jump Range from sensational to proficient .


Has anyone seen this before? I don’t remember seeing a drop of more than 1 level. This seems like an error, but regardless it’s just devastating right after the season flip…. Player is 35.

Actually a great training facility
Players always drop 10% of the skill.
Also always 2 instances of chance of dropping a random skill occur.
The percentage of chance is unknown.


Theoretically it is possible to get a 5 skill points drop in one skill.

This is not unusual at all. That said, you can rely on old players only if you are a beginner and you don't have much money and you want to compete somehow. On div II you should stay away from old dudes, especially those with high salaries, they are not an option even as backups. If you hire a high salary old dude, you are certain to end the season getting much less for the buck.

I think this advice is a bit too narrow minded. Managers should be aware of the (limited) value of aging players but I don't agree that experienced managers should never rely on old players.

Also, the chances of 1 skills getting both the age drop slots is low, so I wouldn't call it normal, it's an exception but one that can indeed happen from time to time.
