Teams

Every player's journey starts by creating a team. At creation, a team come with 11 chainballers NFTs, with their looks and skills attributed randomly by the Ethereum blockchain. From there, teams will be assigned the first slot available in an 8 teams league, and the managers will compete against each other to climb the rankings. Your role as a manager is to select the best lineup for matches, train your players, and making deals to improve the team.

Each footballer (chainballer) has its own set of skills, and may also possess a special trait. These attributes are used as weighing factor during matches: the stronger team is, the more likely it is to win. However, chance plays an important role in the game outcome. As in real life sports, surprise are to be expected. Team managing skills matter, and players strategy in terms of formation type and lineup can help achieve a more favourable outcome. Optionally, a team could also possess a team coach. Coaches have a variety of traits and may positively influence some aspect of the game.

Players can improve the team skills with periodic footballers training, with upskill determined by the footballer learning rate together with chance. Every season, every player can draw up to 3 players from the youth academy, and choose one to join the team!
