Improving & Updating your Player

Over the course of your career, your player will receive a resource known as TPE (Training Points Earned), which is used to increase your attributes over time, or buy traits. This resource is awarded through point tasks and activities.

As your attributes increase, though, they will require more TPE to upgrade. Refer to the update scale below to see how much TPE you must spend to upgrade an attribute.

0-50 - costs 1 TPE to go up 1 point

50-70 - costs 2 TPE to go up 1 point

70-80 - costs 5 TPE to go up 1 point

80-90 - costs 10 TPE to go up 1 point

90-95 - costs 15 TPE to go up 1 point

96-100 - costs 25 TPE to go up 1 point

For example, let’s say you want to increase your player’s Agility. It’s currently at 40. Increasing it to 50 only requires 10 TPE. However, if you then wanted to increase it to 60, the next 10 points would cost 20 TPE. These diminishing returns represent the difficulty required to continue to increase these stats over time. Much like real life, it’s easier to improve at something early on, but it gets tougher over time. The best players in each attribute category work hard to reach that level and tend to stand out because of it. Click HERE for a more detailed explanation of all of our attributes and what they do!

Your player can also work toward earning special traits depending upon their archetype. These traits might offer bonuses such as reducing the chance to cause a penalty, increasing your ability to get interceptions and more. Traits have minimum attribute requirements before they can be purchased - which makes them a great goal for a player’s mid or late career. Check out the list of traits and what they do HERE. Figure out the cost of these traits at the bottom of your player template, or this link HERE.

After your character is created and approved, their page will be moved to the Prospect subforum and later to the corresponding team’s roster page once you are acquired by a team.

While you wait to get on a team, however, you can create your update page in our Prospect Update section HERE. Selecting "Post Thread" and copy in the info from your selected archetype template marked --copy into update thread-- along with the Update Scale. Make sure you change the stats to match your starting attributes in your player creation page.

Next, you’ll link the activities under the “TPE Earned:” section. You can type out the name of the activity and you will link directly to your specific post.

Activity Check #1 +2 TPE



Add this earned TPE to your starting 50, and you’re good to continue upgrading your attributes!

Once you have been approved, you will have the chance to earn new TPE through various activities, such as:

- Activity Checks – Post your name in the weekly activity check thread for easy TPE.
- Point Tasks - Briefly write about a topic or create a related graphic before the deadline.
- Game Predictions – Predict the winner of season games. If you’re right, you receive TPE for it!

Here’s another great video showing how to earn some of that starting TPE, create your update page, and start updating!
