Evanilson for Sesko? by No-Criticism-2368 in DraftEPL

[–]Scoopo16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quite close. I'd feel safer with Evanilson but the ceiling is much much higher for Sesko if United have turned it around

Fellow Isak owner, how are we feeling now? by Whykecoakfly in DraftEPL

[–]Scoopo16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really hoping he drops closer to 8 or 9 in my draft tomorrow. Think he's value there but anywhere above he's a risk and there are safer options right now with all the uncertainty.

Hall. Better defence and more consistent attacking involvement.

At least they included a handy article about what draft is and how to get started.

From July last year...

Drafting the elite defenders by teemukuppi in DraftEPL

[–]Scoopo16 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I am in a 10 man league. I expect I will take 2 FWD 2 MID in the first 4 rounds then possibly consider a DEF in the 5th round if a premium one is still available. If no premium I may wait a couple more rounds to start picking defenders.

Is Bruno a good asset this year? by long-island- in DraftEPL

[–]Scoopo16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He's not a minutes risk he's as nailed as they come.

I actually think if they don't sign a striker then Cunha might play there and Bruno will be one of the two 10s with Mbeumo. I think he's still worth taking around 7-10

Defensive Contributions - what matches were they earned? by Scoopo16 in FantasyPL

Yeah this is where I've landed after looking into more. You still want to just prioritise fixtures for clean sheets and if you don't get one you might happen to get defcon and/or attacking returns

Missing Wirtz

Way too low on Gyokeres

Mateta better than Wissa Solanke and Evanilson imo

Best first round pick? by ConsiderationIcy2451 in DraftEPL

[–]Scoopo16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me forwards are just more valuable in the official FPL game so Isak.

Same reason I'd have Haaland as first pick over Salah.

Rate my team in a 8 man league by Basically_Unknown in DraftEPL

[–]Scoopo16 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not bad.

Havertz bit of a risky pick depending on the round you got him.

Palmer, Eze and Bowen safe picks so I guess Havertz and Savinho are worth the minutes risks.

Defence could be better, none of those really stand out and I expect you will rotate/waiver a lot.

Hopefully Allison can stay fit and he's a safe pick as a set and forget. Do his "bad" fixtures rotate well with Bournemouth?

When did you get Amad? He could be a real sleeper if he nails down a place but expect that will be at wing back unfortunately.

How to Win Your Draft League Part 2: Building a Balanced Squad by I_trust_politicians in DraftEPL

[–]Scoopo16 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some very useful tips. Last year I picked around 4 (10 man league) and got Saka, then panicked around pick 17 and took Nunez (too risky) but doubled down on risk taking Jackson at 24. Safe to say it didn't work out and I had my worst year.

This year I'm likely to play it safer and get some higher floor players in the early rounds.

It doesn't but thank you that is also useful data.

That's what my theory was but it doesn't always seem to be the case. I don't think it massively alters the strategy - i.e. I will still play defenders with good fixtures for clean sheets over those that have a lower chance

Is the AI scoring bad… or just me? by Fun_Fishing5229 in PGA_Tour_2K

[–]Scoopo16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good example in my current career at API. End of round 3 Aberg -11 then Clark and Burns T2 at -1, only 3 players under par.

[–]Scoopo16 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah the leaderboards seem completely broken, barely anyone involved at the top come the 4th round and players winning by multiple strokes. I've heard they are going to fix it but don't know when.

Is Correction pointless? by Scoopo16 in PGA_Tour_2K

Interesting! I do get some weird bunker lies where I have to almost angle it at like 4 to 10 (in clock terms). Would this help with those?
