General Information

To properly manage your club, you must be aware of your team’s capability, potential and what the scoring and popularity influence. In this Documentation, we will explain what you need to know to start increasing the value of your team.

Popularity

Popularity is a measuring tool with which you can see how beloved your team is.

The higher the popularity of your club, the more supporters will come to your matches and therefore the more income you will receive from selling tickets when playing at home.

For each match played at home, the presence of supporters will be calculated using the following formula:

[(The Popularity of your Club + The Popularity of the opposing Club)*100]/2.

Popularity increases in the following situations:

• when your team wins a match;
• daily from the Administration building depending on the degradation level and the upgrade level of the building;
• as a bonus when purchasing Euro packages (those which offer popularity will be mentioned when selecting the pack).

After each match, depending on the result, your popularity can increase or decrease. Popularity increases when:

• your teams wins a match, by 1%;
• in case of a draw, the team with higher popularity will lose 1% of its popularity, and the team with the lower popularity will gain 0,5%;

Popularity decreases in the following situations:

• when losing a match;
• when the basketball arena chairs are degraded under 80% (the value of lost popularity depends on the degradation level up to 5%);
• when the parking spaces are not enough for all the supporters that bought tickets;
• when your local funds are of a negative value;

If the basketball arena chairs are degraded you will lose popularity as it follows:

• under 80% you will lose 1% of your popularity
• under 60% you will lose 2% of your popularity
• under 40% you will lose 3% of your popularity

The maximum popularity that can be achieved is 750 while the minimum is 10.

Team Scoring

The team’s scoring influences the chance of winning a match. The higher the difference between the scoring, the higher is the chance to win the match. Nevertheless keep in mind that having a higher scoring does not guarantee that your players will score, as it influences the number of chances you have for scoring but not the success rate of these tries.

The scoring of your team is calculated based on the abilities and the energy level of your players, the tactics that you choose, bonuses promised to them, their morale, form, and experience.

Manager Profile

In the Profile section of the platform, you can find important information in regards to your profile, assets, your referrals as well as all your transactions.

The Profile can be accessed by clicking on the manager profile picture at the upper right side of the platform.

In this section you will be able to change your name and surname once, your gender, date of birth, unsubscribe from future promotional messages as well as request a password reset. These can be changed from the Manager Profile subsection.

In the Assets submenu you can keep track of the shares you own and your referrals and underneath you have your referral link which you can use to invite new players to the platform.

All those who register through your referral link will automatically become your referrals and will generate affiliate points if the conditions are met (activity and minimum popularity).

In the Transactions submenu you will be able to keep track of all your transactions for all currencies, or from the drop-down menu, change to show only transactions in Euro, Gold or Other Currencies.

Players

The players in your team are the participants in the upcoming matches and they are an essential part that contributes to your success.

Players can be developed from when they are Juniors or they can be purchased from other players through the Transfer Market. They can also be dismissed from your team.

There are a total of 5 positions that you need for your team:

• The Point Guard (PG);
• The Shooting Guard (SG);
• The Small Forward (SF);
• The Power Forward (PF);
• The Center (C).

The Point Guard

The Point Guard is typically the team's best ball handler and passer. Therefore, they often lead their team in assists and are able to create shots for themselves and their teammates.

The Shooting Guard

The Shooting guards tend to be the best defender on the team, as well as being able to move without the ball to create open looks for themselves. He is skilled in shooting.

The Small Forward

The Small Forward is considered to be the most versatile of the main five basketball positions. Small forwards have a variety of assets which they use in order to help their team.

The Power Forward

The Power Forward is often the team's most versatile scorer, being able to score close to the basket while also being able to shoot mid-range jump shots from 12 to 18 feet from the basket.

The Center

The Center player spends most of its time near the rim and he aims to defend incoming attacks and to recover the basketball from the adversary.

In the main team, you need to have a player for each position to have it complete, besides them you also need 7 reserves for cases when an injury takes place.

If you do not have the minimum required number of players for the team and the reserves, you will have new players allotted to you automatically. The minimum required players take into account injured players as well.

Once a player has reached a certain age, they will retire and will become a coach for your team.

Juniors

Juniors can only be purchased only from the Market and they can be trained in a special section of the Training field.

They have the same position and skill requirements as the players, however, their starting age is at 14 to 15 years old, and if you wish to keep them and have them be part of your team, you must promote them to the main team at latest by the age of 17. You can promote them once they reach 16 years old.

If you do not promote the juniors in time, they will leave your team.

Juniors cannot be sold on the Transfer Market, however, they can be dismissed.

Each player can train in 8 different skills to help him increase his scoring.

Each skill has its uses and it influences the success of your players:

When you first become a manager, you will receive a total of 15 players and 2 coaches which you can train in order to develop their abilities.

In the training menu, you can choose which players or juniors you wish to train from the drop-down menu on the upper right corner.

You can place a player or a junior to train by using drag and drop, up to a maximum of 5 players for each skill. Training takes place automatically between 11 and 12 local times. While training takes place you will not be able to make any changes to the training plan.

The skill gain of your players is influenced by the following:

After each training, you can check the progress of your players’ skills in the Training Notification logs underneath the Training field.

If a player is on the Transfer Market or dismissed, he will not train.

Training Coaches

Coaches can also increase their skill by going to the Federation Academy.

Select a coach from the Team, Players menu and choose how many days you want his study period to be depending on the kill value that you wish for him to gain.

The study period for the coaches are as follow:

• 1 day for 1 skill point added to his total skill;
• 2 days for 2 skill points added to his total skill;
• 3 days for 3 skill points added to his total skill.

A higher skill will improve the speed at which the coach will train your players for the ability he is specialized in.

Keep in mind that the trainer will not be able to train the players for the period that he is in the Federation Academy and you will not be able to dismiss or transfer him for that time period.

Training Log

The training log can be found in the Training menu underneath the training field.

There you will be able to access information regarding the skill progress of your players or juniors depending on the category you choose from the training dropdown, what skill they trained for, the percentage for each day as well as other useful information such as the training speed.

Coaches can be purchased directly from the Market or from other players through the Transfer Market and can also be dismissed.

Once a player has reached his retirement age, he might specialize in a skill and become a coach. His highest skill will be halved and that will be the skill he has as a coach. If there are two skills with the same value, the specialized skill will be chosen randomly between the two.

The higher the skill level of the coach, the faster he will train a player for the skill he specializes in.

In order for the coach to influence the training speed of a player, the level of his skill has to be higher or equal to that of the player being trained.

Basketball Arena

The Basketball Arena is where the matches take place.

For every match played at home, you receive an income from the tickets sold for that match.

The number of fans that attend the match is calculated depending on the popularity of the two teams which will participate in the upcoming match.

The Arena will be upgraded automatically depending on the number of seats available, as it follows:

When your Arena degrades, the number of available chairs will be reduced and you will not be able to seat as many fans as you would with no degradation.

Arena Elements

The Seats are maybe the most important part of your Arena as they directly influence the number of fans that purchase tickets to your matches and therefore the income you have from when you play at home.

Besides the seats, there are also Bonus Arena Elements which, if installed, will offer certain benefits to your club. These are the roof, lights and the billboard.

• Arena level 2 – 10 roofs, 6 Lights and 2 Billboard;
• Arena level 3 – 15 roofs, 9 Lights and 3 Billboard;

My Lineup

In My Lineup, you will find the players that are currently chosen for the lineup of the next match. Along with the main lineup, you can pick the base reserve players. If one player from the bench replaces another one on the court, this player will occupy all the positions the previous player was on, in all the 4 quarters of the match: Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4.

Player Info

The star on the players represents each player’s talent level. You can also find on the player’s icon information like scoring, player number, a scoring percentage and the position on the court.
The percentage is the circled number and depends as value on the native position of each player on the court and the one chosen by the current tactics. It influences the general scoring of the player, as a percentage of it, providing the actual scoring of every player on the court. If the percentage is 100%, the General Scoring equals the Actual Scoring of the player.
When hovering over the player’s icon and clicking the “i” button to the left, a popup will open and here you can see every possible stat regarding the current player. To the right of the player’s icon, you will have the config button. Use it to set the attack and defense types.

Team Info

In this section are displayed the following attributes of the players from the first lineup, as well as the reserves:

• DEF: the average Def attributes of the players in the game (first team and reserves), according to their position on the court. To this, there will be a percentage added according to the Q Bonus (Quarter Bonus).
  Ex: if the player has 50% on the court, it will be calculated 50% of his Def
• ATK: the average Atk attributes of the players in the game (first team and reserves), according to their position on the court. To this, there will be a percentage added according to the Q Bonus (Quarter Bonus).
