BuzzerBeater Forums

It's obviously flattering but I don't see it like that. There are only 3 temas in my group I need to pay attention to, the rest being bots. It's therefore the simplest management.
Outplaying takes being lucky, reading your opponent is just a percentage. I have been having good luck.
As to developping my boys, it's just another way of enjoying long-term strategy games as buzzerbeater or hattrick.
After that you only need a consistent training plan in some 10 seasons term, and update or tweak it regarding your draft luck.
And level 7 trainer is advisable : )

Hello all. Firstly, Happy New Year to everyone in the English forums. Now, my apologies go out for my inactivity on this forum for the last week and a half, I've been skiing in France and the WiFi in the hotel was abysmal which meant I could only get on to set lineups. Here's the reports for the previous three rounds that I've missed..

ROUND SIX SUMMARY
The sixth round saw a wonderful, captivating contest between the two most successful English managers in recent times, with Tatatallfella knocking out defending champions, Tide of Fire by a score of 93-79. This round also saw two intriguing games between Bethnal Green Erks v new jersey2 and Stinkilemons v Triximos Tricks which saw both EBBL teams prevail by scores of 112-119 and 84-83 respectively. There was also a massive upset in store with M Dogs being knocked out by third division side, BlasterbAg Man by a margin of 8 points.

ROUND SEVEN SUMMARY
This round saw yet another two match ups between EBBL sides with new jersey2 hosting Tatatallfella and Stinkilemons matching up against Galaxy Walkers. The games lived up to expectation with Tatatallfella and Stinkilemons both booking their quarter finals spots with commanding wins. The other EBBL sides involved, Durham Wasps and Los Mikitos, also guaranteed a next round draw, both beating lower division opposition. BlasterbAg Man also continued to impress by knocking Irvine Blackhawks out to be the last third division side in this seasons competition.

QUARTER-FINALS SUMMARY
Entering the business end of the competition, everything was to play for with Tatatallfella hosting his third EBBL team in succession in Stinkilemons. The game saw the former champion, Tallfellas, dominate the quarters either side of half time to book his place in the semis, thanks to a 96-79 win. The other results went as expected with Los Mikitos and Durham Wasps winning comfortably to guarantee a semi final clash whilst BlasterbAg Man had his run ended by division II side Kapsukas by a score of 149-122 to be the only non-EBBL side present in the tournament.

The semi final will see the Tallfella's drawn once again against an EBBL side with Los Mikitos awaiting the challenge. In the other semi final, Durham Wasps will bid to reach their first ever tournament final against division II side Kapsukas who will be bidding to become the fourth division II side to win the tournament.

Teams remaining are as follows:
EBBL (3/16)
II.1 (0/16)
II.2 (0/16)
II.3 (0/16)
II.4 (1/16)

Good luck to all teams involved.

Consider the 22 losses as practice.

SEMI FINAL SUMMARY
Both semi finals were eagerly anticipated to be cracking match ups involving three EBBL teams and a lone division II team. The first semi final match up between Los Mikitos and Tatatallfella saw two teams from different sides of the EBBL conference battle it out for a place in the final. The first quarter belonged to Tatatallfella who held a five point advantage before Mikitos outscored his opponent in the second to take a nine point lead into the half. The second half saw the two teams exchange blows throughout with Neither side being able to build any momentum. The game ended with Los Mikitos edging Tatatallfella by a score of 79-75 in a fantastic game which lived up to expectation.
The second of them semi finals saw Durham Wasps show the gulf in class between an EBBL team and a division II team by outscoring Kapsukas in every quarter. The game was virtually taken away from Kapsukas in the first half with the Wasps showing no mercy to lead by the score of 61-36. The second half continued in the same pattern seeing the Wasps reach their first ever tournament final, winning by a score of 119-83.

The final next week see's the showdown of two teams battling for playoffs in their respective conferences in the EBBL. Neither side has ever won the tournament so the stakes will be high to gain their first ever major crown in England. Congratulations and good luck to both teams on what should be an excellent finale to another great tournament.

Teams remaining are as follows:
EBBL (2/16)
II.1 (0/16)
II.2 (0/16)
II.3 (0/16)
II.4 (0/16)

That's awesome. Nothing against Tata, but really happy to see those two teams who I've battled with over the years in the final. Mikitos have lost 3 finals including season 9, so are just about due I reckon, but the pesky wasps keep coming at you...

The Tallfellas have been really unlucky with the draw. I don't recall seeing anyone have to play four top division teams in a row, whereas I've only had to play one. Getting to the final doesn't seem worth celebrating for itself, only the winner of the tournament can celebrate.

Pesky Wasps; I quite like that. For the last season and a half we've been living up to our name by attacking on both offence and defence. Sometimes it goes very wrong and sometimes it works better than I could hope for. I hope next thursday it will be the latter.

Good luck to Mikramus, who has done a lot for England with his factory that produces NT player after NT player. Of course I'm very familiar with Stuart Madelin who was often my starting point guard with England. As much as I liked him then, I hope he has a stinker in the final.

Pleased for both of them, they totally deserve it!
