Surviving VNS with new empty team and no signings

[nully29]

Start in England with all 6 tiers, on small database. Holiday till new season. New teams will get promoted. They usually have no players except for 13 newly generated guys on non-contracts. All of them are operating at regional divisions level. For some reason, none of them can play striker. I did several rerolls but never got a striker. So the challenge is to avoid relegation with them. You can't make any signings except offering contracts to your grey out players. It goes without saying, that saves/loads are not allowed.

 

I actually failed. I got relegated on the last day, falling two points short. Nonetheless I have learned that it's doable. I was playing mostly on key highlights without adapting to opponent, because I was interested in seeing how it would go rather than spend hours tweaking tactics. I would sure survive if I do it again. Few months later, once community would figure out ME, it would be easy.

Doesn't look like my cup of tea and there doesn't seem to be anything more than just a single seasons worth in this challenge, but it sure is a way of testing the power of a tactic I guess
