Some of you were smart and ahead of us, but:
The Fantasy League will return soon!
You read it right! The Fantasy League will return in OSM!
The well-known League from the OSM past will return soon. We are working hard to make the League as fun as possible for you.
The return of the Fantasy League is expected around November 26, so make sure you've a manager slot available!
-
@ChrisTolman Hooray! I'm ready to donate galleons, shekels and anything else not to Boss Coins, but directly to your office in Netherlands to the one who initiated all this. Thanks!
-
Fantasy League, but how its looking like, might be a "spend your retirement savings thing.

-
And it's live guys!
Build your dream squad and have fun!

@specialone Brilliant news! Also I have noticed on the Android App that you guys have put tournament stage where you got defeated in the history section. Very nice!
-
@specialone in the near future will it be possible to create your own league and customize the settings (starting budget 50/100/150, closed league, disabled transfers, etc.) to play with friends? Or did you drop everything that you done?
-
@wenger-wise There's still options such as Disable Training Camps, ect. and you can make it a private league
-
Some notes about how fantasy league is working:
(keep in mind that this is a first version and we had to rebuild it from scratch, future upgrades are on the list)- It's not possible to create your own fantasy league
- Fantasy league will start when ALL 10 teams are submitted
- Users have 2 hours to build their squad, otherwise they are removed from the league
- Squads need a minimum of 20 players in order to be submitted
- It's not possible to have same player in two squads, so if you take too long to build your squad, all the players you want may be taken
- Value of your squad can't go over 100M

@specialone thanks, looking forward to updates
-
@specialone Hey man, is there a specific reason you guys decided to limit the budget to 100M? Why not 300-400m?
Also the transfers, are they allowed in this league?
Thanks in advance.

all the features are enabled on the fantasy league (transfer list, training camp, secret training, scout, etc...)

Transfers are allowed aswel as all other features (as @Lirind stated)
About the budget, what do you think it will happen if all managers had 300M to build a team? Do you think that there are enough Top players to build 10 teams? And where will be the fun on play a whole season with a static team, you won't any have players to buy to improve the squad!

@SpecialOne
Hello
I have applied in the fantasy league since this morning, but I have not been in the league yet. -
@kasrasyedi
All 10 players have to built their squads completely. Obvious, some players in your league didn't do that. Every 2 hours their kicked of the league and new managers coming. In version 2.0 it usually took from 2 to 8 hours (according to personal observations)
an example of a manager facing financial problems, reason for league delay:
-
@joe-mcnorthman
The previous OSM version had 3 different budgets. I agree with Mr. @SpecialOne that leagues with 300-400M budgets simply cannot start, since the last 2-3 players will be left full of slag and they will leave the league. But not really about transfers. Perhaps an ordinary player will be interested in first building a squad, and then gradually improving it. But for high-level players, it is not a problem at all to update the 100M lineup in 4 days by 90-100%. In fact, all the fun remains in the unusual name of the team, since otherwise I do not see the difference from the casual league of Australia / Albania / Kuwait. In these leagues, and without a fantasy mode, in a week you can collect your own dream team worth 100M+ (just shell out more Boss Coins).
I do not insist on changing the default settings. But the ability, for example, to turn off transfers and play a themed league with friends is something I've been thinking about for the past few weeks. For example, there are a lot of ideas to come to an agreement and collect the English Premier League rosters for seasons 13/14, play only 34+ year old players, 10 best academies and their graduates, own world championship among national teams under 18 and so on.
Nevertheless, what has been added to the game is already very cool. And I will trust that the opportunity to create a custom fantasy league will not be long in coming. Thanks again GB!

@specialone great job sir. I totally agree 100m budget is enough. Im looking forward to be able to create a league and play with my friends. And is there any possibility in near future Fantasy League to be used in official battles? Thank you.
-
@specialone actually i dont mind transfers or initial budget, can you guys add the ability to create a private fantasy league first?? ty!

I've been playing as a member of osm since 2012. When I first became a member, I joined because I heard about the fantasy league.Thanks for bringing it back now. My request from you, which I am sure is not the only one, is that we can play the fantasy league with our own friends. On behalf of myself and all my friends playing osm, I request your help.
Best regards.
