I just logged in otday and see that my teams ar in "D" mode and that I need to take actions to be able to play my teams again.
Can anyone point me to how this works ?
Any tips would be appreciated too.
Thanks |

- Don't try and do it in the old-style team viewing page, do it in the new style one
One reason for this is how the retire screen works: the old one doesn't have the option to temporary retire
Also I think the re-buying screen is different
- Generally you just are trying to adjust team value down to the cap
If you've played 15x games then cap is probably 1350
You probably have a few players you can keep and need to replace the rest
- If you keep 5 players in their first redraft, you're losing 100k to agent fees, so your team value will end up at 1250 or less
If you are determined to stick with players long term, you may end up at less than 1000k
- Unspent SPP on a player doesn't count towards their budget. So, stockpiling SPP and not spending it until the new season can help
- You must have minimum 11 rostered players, and obey all the other normal drafting rules
- Redraft will clear MNGs, so you can redraft at 10x players + 1x MNG player
- Any players with 0 skills should generally be replaced. Even if you have spare budget. This is because you may be able to afford the 20k now, but it'll be 40k next season etc, and if they get useful skills in the new season, it'll cost you extra to keep them
- You probably have to fire a couple of marginal players that you would have liked to keep, so there will always be some pain involved. It happens to all teams
- If you hire a new player but change your mind, it can be refunded
- If you fire an existing player but change your mind, it can be re-hired
In the new-style team viewing page, the Hire Players side-panel will have the normal players available, like 0-16 zombies
But then, it will also show a list of fired players below that, so you can re-hire them
IMPORTANT: this sidepanel has a max height on the page, so if you fire a lot, you'll get a scrollbar in the list. So you may need to scroll the panel to find someone you want to re-hire
- Firing the apothecary is the easiest thing to cut
But! if you have any niggles, redrafting will cure them on a 4+, and this roll is improved to a 3+ if you still have the apoth
Firing rerolls can also help, but it costs double to rebuy them
- Temporary Retirement is available, the process is:
1) A player gets injured in a match with a stat reduction
2) After THAT MATCH you immediately do Temporary Retire in the endgame state. This means being in the new-style team page, and clicking Retire, and you get the choice there
3) For the rest of the season, that player will still count as a rostered player, so stops you buying more of the same type if you were already at the limit
4) When THAT SEASON ends, you have the option to rehire the player during redraft
5) When redraft happens, there's a 4+ roll to turn the -stat injury into a niggle instead (it's 3+ if you have apothecary)
6) If the roll is failed, you can't fire the player until you've played game1 of the new season
- Most important point is perhaps, the agent fees are hard and will put a limit on most player's careers
You can probably afford 80-200k of agent fees at most, depending on roster
So, for those of us used to playing in [C]ompetitive division without seasons, it's a change to adapt to. Building teams in a long term fashion is less possible now
Building players for the long term is less possible. Building multi-stat players is less possible
(On the other hand, niggles and -stats now have the possibility to be cured)
Players are now more temporary, but the team can live forever |

Thanks Spookeh, that is a lot of information to digest.
Anyone has already done that and made a video somewhere so I can check what others do ? |

I'd suggest just getting into it, starting with your least important team  |

As simple tip, start firing the Linemen with 0 skills from past Season (this will save you 20k each), then start checking what positionals you want to keep or retire, then fill the roster up to 11 players or more. I did that. |

Cheers! The interface is greatly designed and intuitive, yesterday I re-drafted 12 teams in few minutes.
As an aside, you might be interested in migrating your Ranked teams to Competitive.
It's now possible! |

this was really well-designed, and I had no trouble doing this for my team. Great job on it! |

Sorry for highjacking your post but what am I doing wrong ??
I'm stuck in the redraft with my main team : https://fumbbl.com/t/1088123 .
At this stage, I'm done, guys are redrafted, new bones added, treasury positive and yet, impossible to end the sequence and start a second season.
What did I miss ??
I reached the 1350k spot on, no change.
I have fired / redrafted some guys twice, no change.
Gave the Debug button his chance, no change.
Please, I accept all your help on this matter. |

Have you put your team on Ready status, after the Re-Draft phase? |

That's the problem.
I can't find how / where to exit Re-Draft state....
Re-drafting budget
1350k ?
-
Player (re-)hiring cost
1020k
-
Team staff cost
140k
=
Remaining Budget
190k
Treasury does not match Remaining budget. Probably caused by the ruleset changing. |
