Which teams are planning on boosting? And are you boosting early?

With the new changes, if you drop your boosting SP's into your primary, there isn't really much reason to wait to boost. I suppose you might be able to get a few extra SP's from training, but probably not much of a difference.

I think with the new changes more teams will boost. Everybody thinks they can win at the beginning of the season so they'll boost. Where in the old system only a few teams had much incentive to boost late.

I think the negative will be that we see more teams going CPU in the middle/late of the season. When they realize they can't make the playoffs, they'll just sell their team so they can retire their boosted players and spend the flex elsewhere (older dots where they'll still boost late).

I plan on boosting but im not sure if im going to do it in the beginning of the season or not... I've been stupid busy the last three weeks with a move.. so i was running some seriously bare bone tactics.. I have to run the number crunch on the boosting.. its not as simple as the SP dump as you lose XP from boosting that early,

Fearful teams will boost early. Confident teams that are not afraid to go mano a mano against a NB PW team will boost late.

You don't lose XP anymore beginning this season, so there is very little bonus for waiting later in the season. That's why I asked the question.

Bears & TIA will be full boost/ceq on Day 2.

With the new XP rules, there is no reason to boost late since everyone between levels 1-15 get the SAME XP for both games and their daily XP. Thus the ONLY reason to wait is to make training more effective, but that puts you a full 3+ levels below boosted teams. Reason I say 3+ levels is now you get 6 SP's per boost, so you get 18 SP's instead of 15 SP's when you boost, so that's even more SP's boosted teams will have over non-boosted teams.
