Lack of money to throw around has hurt me in the effort to put together a B3 starting 5, and the squad being incomplete has resulted in a loss at home (early injury to the C didn't help though it's only in-game). I think if I can't get a 2nd guard soon I'll call it a rebuilding year and adopt a 3 season plan instead; train now, try to win BBM tier 1 next season, B3 the season after that.

Yeah winning tier 1 shouldn't even be hard. I only got beat by the eventual winner who just cruised through everyone cause like 6 nationals and 1.2? Mil+ salary

I've been leaking money for the last few seasons. Still have decent bank roll though.

Don't pull the plug too early!

It's not so much pulling the plug early as it is being a bit more patient with my goals. I'm keeping the 3 NT players and can make a lot of merchandise money off of that, meanwhile I can alleviate some of the guilt over winning 2 ABBL finals without feeling like I earned either by letting other teams go after the trophies this season. Next season I'll go all out again no matter what happens in the interim.

How much merch does a starter for a NT bring in merchandise/is each player's contribution to merchandise linear? or does having multiple perhaps even INCREASE the amount of merch per player?

My roster needs a shake up, just I'm unsure if I'll be able to unload my higher salary players.

I no longer have the data comparing my merch before buying Duffield vs after but I can say that last season I was consistently raking in 250-270k merchandise with the all-Australian roster and 2 NT players, save for the week where neither of them started.

Damn that is impressive.

Last season my merch was between 130-138k with one backup NT player.
You literally have like an extra 125k to work with per week. God dayum.

Being one starter short of a stacked team really does make a big difference. Aforementioned plan to drop to BBM tier 1 is still on so I'll make sure not to shop around for next season until after the play-off deadline (I was planning to wait last playoffs too, but Błażejczak was just too good to miss.)
