Substitutions

Subs are designed to prevent users from being able to brute force trading in and out of games to maximise the potentially rewards.

Substitutions are only triggered if you sell more than 10% of your holdings (logged at pitch entry) of a specific player. This is cumulative so if you sell in smaller quantities, a substitution will still be triggered once you reach above 10%.

You get 5 free subs per tournament. This is triggered once per player.

When trading player shares of someone after a match has begun or once a player has already played, and the tournament is still ongoing, a Substitution event is triggered and penalties start to apply:

  • 0-5 subs: No TP Penalty

  • 6-7 subs: 50% TP Penalty

  • 8-9 subs: 75% TP Penalty

  • 10+ subs: 90% TP Penalty

The penalty is applied directly to your Tournament Point rewards and the reduction to your winnings will be displayed immediately on the ‘Live’ screen.

Your skill score from the skill leaderboard will also receive the same level of penalty.

There will always be a warning on the trade window to make you aware if a Sub event will or will not trigger.

The cut off point for Subs is 3PM UTC. 1 hour prior to Tournament Rewards (4PM UTC).
