I only see 1 possible downside from making it a walk over:

your fans might be in lesser mood to show up in your next game then when you just lost your game without walk-over.
So I'd also try to field 3 guys and make it a 'normal' game
Overall bot teams (especially the ones reaching the finals) aren't that bad. I've known teams who did want to win and fielded 5 players and still lost to the bots because they underestimated them... But okay...

Apart from that I don't think there is any censequences.


But let me add one last thing: what will happen if for instance you trow the second game, and then by sheer bad luck the 3 best players get injured during the tie breaker in the first quarter?
Would it still be a sure win? since, even odd and rare, it CAN happen. :)


I would really like to bet on two events, but both of them wont happen :p

1) I would win game 2 with my worst three players
2) I would defeat the Bot by 20+ in the Tiebreaker without playing my three best players

It is "too risky" if I play game 2, so I will forfeit intentionally and go for game 3 - more money, no strings attached? Why not?

I am exactly in the same situation as you are in the first leg of final I won by +50
But I am trying to lose the game not to walk over it .
This way I can get 1/3 of the bot`s arena income too .
So my line up is :
PG : Lucky fan
SG : My worst C
SF : Another C with bad shooting ability
PF : My worst PG !!!!
C : Lucky fan

HOPE I LOSE THIS GAME !!!!!!

Ps. I changed my tactic to Princeton man to man & Playoff normal

fyi: I got some money paid although game was a walkover.

EDIT: motivation went from 9 up to 12

Losing intentionally really has no bad consequences at all if training is unimportant to you, plus your players cant get injured.

i thought they removed that, and makes it act like a "normal"(like a normal normal not a PO normal) - if they didn't they should do it
