Tryouts are your pipeline to the future: Young prospects waiting to be discovered, signed, and turned into main-roster superstars. The Academy system is built for patient builders who love developing talent instead of just buying ready-made stars from the transfer list. Take prospects under your wing and build them up until they turn 20 years old. Then you can decide to graduate them to your main roster or sell them on the transfer list.
How Tryouts Appear
Tryouts are 13–17 year old prospects who can join your Academy at no cost.
Regular Tryouts
- All regular tryouts are generated with similar quality (roughly equivalent to the old 80 scouting power level).
- They spawn with a random age between 13 and 17 years old.
- Some tryouts may already have a small amount of fame when they appear.
- There is no cooldown or restriction — you can accept as many as you want.
Rare Ceiling-Breaking Tryouts
- There is a small chance (0.27%) for a high-end “monster” tryout to appear.
- These elite prospects are fixed at 15 years old and have exceptionally high potential (comparable to the beast players on the Transfer List).
- These are the true game-changing talents that will break the current ceiling of the regular tryouts.
- These rare tryouts will be specifically marked, so that you will notice them on the spot.
This system rewards consistent daily checking, gives meaningful decisions on who to accept, and allows both steady homegrown development and the occasional high-reward “lottery” pull.
Hiring a Scout to help you find the next big superstar
Tryouts get generated with some of their skill limits, special abilities, fave map & weapon hidden. The Scout helps you unlock these to see their true potential. The Scout skills work as follows:
- Insight: 1 to 5 info points revealed on arrival of the TO. The more stars you have on your Scout here, the more points get revealed.
- Interviews: 5 to 1 day per extra Skill reveal. The more stars your Scout has here, the less time an interview will take.
- Attraction: +1 to +5 days extra lifespan before the TO leaves. The more stars your Scout has here, the more time a TO will stick around before you have to make a decision or before they are leaving.
Interview Room Upgrades
Want to go big when multiple gems show up?
- Upgrade cost: 3,000 CPL (one-time).
- Benefits:
- +1 interview chair → 2 tryouts can be interviewed at the same time.
- +750 CPL weekly maintenance.
- You can downgrade anytime and get 1,500 CPL back.
Perfect for scaling up when the talents are hot and scaling down once your academy is stocked.
Tips & Insights for Tryout Success
- You can hire and kick Tryouts / Academy players at any time without any cost.
- Once you hire a tryout, they will become part of your Academy roster. Whenever a tryout has their birthday, you get to upgrade any skill limit by 1 point. This means, if you sign them at 15, you can allocate an additional 5 points to their skill limits and increase their potential.
- Once a Tryout turns 20 you have 14 days to graduate them to your main roster. If you fail to do so, they will be put onto the transfer list automatically with the proceedings going into your pocket.
- While the Tryout is 20 years old and waiting on graduation, they will no longer gain training or experience from academy and cannot play in the 2v2 tournaments.
