Senior league needs a facelift...bad.

- Why are my teams having a 90/10 pass/run ratio? That is just stupid. The change in pass/run ratio for a team losing the game should not kick in until at least the 4th quarter. Make the play calling more balanced in the first 3 quarters.

- Have a few QB designed runs. I'm saying spam, but have 5% - 10% QB runs.

- Stop with the stupid defensive play calling. How many times are you gonna run engage 8 and free fire? Get the best defensive and offensive play calls in the play book.

- Give the teams an "identity". Make some teams "run heavy" or some teams "pass heavy". This will allow players to get on teams that they would be a good fit for.

- Do the same for defense

There is no way in hell Phoenix should be losing by 80 points every game. This is all due to the idiotic play calling. Fix this shit!!!!

Phoenix didn't lose by 80 points every game until you put all your scrub players on that team. Coincidence? I think not.

I will use Eugene as an example because I have worked on building it up and know it well. A few agents committed to building up Eugene (and even have their own forum though not used much at all). They created an "identity" and not the devs, which is the way I think is better. Many of the players came from SNL and hence have a similar "identity". Hartford is largely Fury, Saskatoon is largely TT now and of course dbill and Xars have given Louis/Wash and NY respectively their "identity" for many seasons.

Now in regards to your Phx team. It just sucks. You haven't studied Senior Lg much or well to understand how to build the team. GE Droid was a liability on each team he has been on and now is totally exposed. Once you understand the league, you can build a consistent winner. A few of us agents got Eugene settled in S20 and since have gone 84-5. I was part of getting Hartford settled in S23 and they have gone to the finals each season since (AirMcMVP figured it out and had his Fury players take them to the next level ). dbill was very good with Wash, but then changed a few things when he built up Louis and has been so close for several seasons. There are several other examples. You just have to figure it out. You'll get it eventually, but like I said before, the glory isn't like controlling your own team with game planning and full control.

I respect how you have really tried to make Zone def work and it has adding fun to GLB2, but in this game one has to be flexible and notice when the meta changes and then pounce to stay ahead of it. The INT changes for example are making me have to figure out how to shift. It is what makes the game interesting and prevent it from becoming stale.

I understand everything you are saying and I knew my team would suck at the beginning because I just threw a bunch of my old players (all run) on the team to fill up the spots. I plan on moving a balanced offense up after 80s current players finish. But what pisses me off is the unproportionate ratio of run/pass...PLUS the 50/50 ratio the other teams had. How can you explain that??? If the ratio was 50/50, the game would have been much more respectable.

But like I said, I'm not stupid and I know exactly how Senior league is run. I will eventually have a pure, drop back S* QB, power running S* HB and 2 S* DTs permanently on Phoenix.

Then chill out and don't freak about S26. If you are playing the long game then roll a fatty and sit back to wait for the peak.

Maybe Phx has gotten weird/bad luck for the initial play calling just these last couple games or maybe they have gone to the pass so quickly because they (or the devs) know that they are gonna be trailing soon enough or maybe because we are all conspiring against you all the time.

Already in S26 Phx has the #2 and #3 worst losses ever in Senior Lg. And there have been some teams that are just about pure CPU built (even Houston this season).

But at least CPU players have some pass catch/blocking skills. My players have 0.

Get FLEX back?

Damn GE, if you keep up at this pace for 2 more years you would spend enough on flex that you could have probably made a handsome offer to Bort, then after he accepts, change things to your liking as much as you feel like it.

For the record, I'd probs still play so I can continue to lol u on a regular basis.

Ummm Hi.... What's a senior league?

What happens when I reach level 25? How long does my player play? What happens after that?
Once your player reaches level 25, he remains at level 25 for 1 additional season (30 games). You can add up to 3 additional seasons' worth of games (90 more) at level 25 by buying the appropriate boosts. After this "plateau" period ends, the player reaches the "Legend" tier and becomes eligible to only play in Legend Leagues. Legend leagues are CPU-run teams specifically for Legend players only.

Senior leagues are for players who reach legend tier.

It is basically a league where your players go to suck because the play calling is atrocious.

Interesting...I've only had my legend level players play on human rosters.

If they turn legend during the season then they can stay on a human team but their chemistry drops really fast. After finishing the season though they have to be retired or go play in the senior league because they can't sign a contract to a human team as a legend.
