    I played the 2018 version.

    I couldn't play 19 because they're so paranoid about cheating that they spent a lot of resources figuring out a way to prevent jaibroken devices from playing.

    Last year I figured a way around it. This year, after many hours of attempts, I failed and gave up.

    I am pretty much an expert at the game though, so feel free to ask me any questions.

    Here's some very basic advice:

    - Don't buy draft picks. Never worth it. If you really want to buy players, do it with mystery boxes.

    - Join a club as soon as you're able, and start collecting the rewards every day from the club finishing in whatever place. Join a higher level club for better rewards. At the end of the season on 2018, I was a member of a Diamond club and kept getting 5000 prime XP over and over just for being there.

    - Don't level past gold until near the game being over (it will end around late March 2020), because the club events will start getting way harder

    - Always look at a player's "maximum" points to reveal how good they are. Don't invest much in players with a low max.

    - Understand that inflation is built into the game, and great players today will be shit in August. So keep that in mind, as well.

    Thanks for the tips, yes learning as I go, first year playing but def tricks to when to play and waiting for promos etc. Also on the club vs club events its like ebay, people playing last minutes to get better rewards for high game etc.

    Decent graphics though and yes watch a players potential over all before building that guy and wasting energy!

    Yeah club vs. club is big to rack up XP.

    Get in a high level club which won't kick you (may take several tries to find one), then score at least 10 in each club vs. club and you'll rack up XP fast.

    I'm not to big on playing games on my phone, but one of the earlier versions of this game I got hooked on for a short period of time. The thing that drove me away from the game was all the things outside of the games you have to take care of. Then you have to actually play the game which isn't really set up as a great mobile experience. What I like in a mobile gaming is something like Word With Friends, play your turn quickly and be done with it. Phones already have way to many distractions that I get fixated on... Playing 9 innings + setting my team up with packs etc is just way to much to do while I'm on the pot.

    I might sound like a bit of an old man but I just download offline playable games and podcasts for travel. I haven't owned a gaming system since ps3 and probably haven't played that in at least 4 years!

    Building a team is part of it, we can live out a dream on a phone and the toilet at the same time lol

    Currently record sits at 3200 wins 801 loses so .800 and a 72XXX 5 star team rating which is decent I think.

    Most all players level 3 platinum and because I am OCD I raise their powers in unison lol

    Just hit All Star level 13 as well.

    Just dawned on me as I type this with a smile, I need to get a life.
