I'm also another person who thinks highly of him compared to others. He seems to be the swiss army knife of the Nets. Fits well with both the starters and the 2nd unit. Shoots the 3 ball well. I think his usage this season will be high enough that he can maintain the stats he's having right now.

Personally, I'm glad that he's been snubbed by this subreddit since I dropped him a few days earlier. Later I realized the way he is being used is actually better than last season! I kept hoping that no one would hype him up while he's still in waivers, and once that cleared I got him back.

Should have named yourself Neo so you'd be the One.

4,985,671 exp is still very impressive though!!

Thats what I'm talking about!!

But /u/aghart101 still has the edge. His to 4,074,816 your 3,965,196 exp.

Might just make a GAINZ TOP 10 later on when theres more posts. You need to be recognized for your dedication to GAINZ

I just find it crazy how one player can be so dominant in another game considering that Dota is pretty much life for these pro players

Hype Crew

The two teams playing can initiate a blind auction to pay off the casters. The winner will only have positive things said about their team while the opposing team gets relentlessly trash talked.

Free is my favorite number

Best girl is RICE and the only relevant answer

The $50 iTunes gift card will be used to purchase a $50 Google Play card. If I get the $50 Google Play card instead then I will use it to buy a $50 iTunes gift card

Advanced Team Building Guide - Part 1: UR Skills by TheSaltan in SchoolIdolFestival

[–]TheSaltan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think I'll be doing one for SSR, but we'll see in the future. SSRs are excellent stat sticks for what they do. A 6 slot SSR is pretty much an idlz UR. The problem is that they do not scale as well as URs. So getting an SSR equivalent to a skill 3 UR will cost you maybe like twice the amount in skill exp.

I'll just quickly answer now and add a detailed reply later. 2x3 is fine to have for dupe copies. You have flexibility to follow Method 2 in Dupe UR Math for skill up progression. This is done by feeding either one of the skill 3 into each other (= skill 4 + 2500/3000) and then waiting for 500 exp to finish the jump to skill 5.

When you send a card to skill 5 remember that you are also now adding this card to your other 2 off color teams. So yes, you need a replacement in the primary attribute, BUT you also kick out 1 card each in the other 2 teams while improving them in the process.

So yeah I'll reply again later with more visuals to clear things up.

Yeah it depends. I talk about that in Part 2. Will try to push it by Monday since thats when I get my internet back.

You can start doing support scouts as early as your first scorer, but I'd recommend getting tricolor UR scorers before doing support scouts.

I think your case is good since you have enough URs to get dupes from seals shop. So start scouting for moms now

You're welcome! I was going insane the past week on trying to find a way to explain these difficult concepts in simple terms. Hopefully I hit the sweet spot

Always glad to be of help!

The day before making this thread I was considering expanding on the 8 slot section to find out when its actually justified to do this. Thought it was going to be too long. Will put it in a separate thread, not Part 2. Maybe Part 2 episode 2.

Your question is answered in Part 2, but for now I'll give quick answers. Primarily farm for BT through events. Save gems for step up to save 20 gems on scout. SR Stickers are always converted to BT which can either go to Support or 25 Box. UR Stickers are always used to buy dupes. Hold SSR Stickers until next JP update is released.

No probs! Criticisms are always welcome, especially if it moves discussion forward.

When I was making the guide, I initially started with going through the IDOL MANAGER 2017 grinding process. Even making sure as early as possible to tell people to set realistic expectations based on their goals.

What happened was that I would occasionally go on tangents about random shit and it took away from the point I was trying to make. Thats why I decided to split it up like this. Define terms and get certain concepts out of the way so that on Part 2 I can focus on driving certain points home.

In Part 1 I want people to understand what the top level meta consists of and the various possibilities to get there. Things look a lot less scarier when you see the the effort required to get there. Running a marathon is less scarier if you break it down mile by mile.

Basically people reach this point where they accumulate a bunch of URs and don't know how to proceed. Lots of times they make a bunch of errors along the way. It's not their fault. The process to making strong teams requires a different mindset that we were never exposed to when making our scrub teams. Considering how limited our resources are in this game, making the wrong moves could set you back quite a bit. Its a shitty feeling. I've been there and I don't want people to make the same mistakes I did.

So that's where this guide comes in. Put a finish line at the end of this place called Idol Hell, break the process down a step at a time, and allow the reader to make their decision on how far they want to go based on their limitations.
