Rollbit.com 🦁 Fantasy Premier League ⚽ Discussion Thread [0.15+ BTC]

[Trofo]

Man, I think you're downplaying it a bit. Your average rating over the last 8 seasons is 244,634.  

That one season 2021/22 killing my rank bad  

Now you ruined my chances of sucking someone for a side bet   Nothing to do except create an alt account, call it SucksAtFantasy, build it until next season, join the pool next season, and take shitloads of bets.

[NotATether]

I think everyone chickens out because I was giving too many pieces of advice here.

I'm still without a side bet for FPL after NotATether chicken out from my 3mBTC offer, so here is my offer tough guy-  if you top me with a point difference of 21-22 after GW15 you take my 2.5mBTC. Easy money for you.

Give me your condition if there's any...

I didn't chicken out, I was just disappointed that you weren't going to put more BTC on the table. 

[Igebotz]

Not taking mid season bets. My goal is to win the pool and hopefully breach top 10k or something. Couldn't care less about ranking in GW15.

Not thrilled about handicaps either but i will give you 29.5 handicap on end of season for that 2.5 mBTC. Meaning if I have 30 points over you I win the bet.

If I were you I would be scared to go against me too... It's all good bro, not gonna take a full season bet with you. I'm always shit in second chance league.

My experience and FPL skills isn't good enough and doesn't deserve a 10mbtc bet. Anyone got offer for me?

@buwaytress do you have any FPL or EPL side bet offer?

Maybe this season will be better, bud@Igebotz. You can win the bet; you just have to try to ensure Trofo doesn't get 30 points over you even if he wins at the end.

I am going to cheer you on! You can do it!!

Why do you keep underestimating yourself?  You are one of the people who gives out regular tips here in this thread, surely your skills should be worth 10mbtc or even more.

I wasn't thinking about making any side bets this season. However if my dear friend buwaytress offers me a side bet, I think that I'm absolutely going to accept it. I couldn't still prepare my squad. I'm a little late for it. I'm absolutely going to have to do a player analysis tonight.

It is said that Brighton has signed Ferdi Kadıoğlu. If his price is cheap I would absolutely give him a place in my fantasy squad.

[Joca97]

I wished i could have join this fantasy league. Was trying to get the cash in last few days but just wasnt able to find anything extra. Too bad that there isnt a few more days so i can try and make it… what is the deadline to join ?

I don't even listen to my own advice, went against my tips too many times last season. 10mbtc is way too high for something that could end either Way. BTW are you joining us again this season?

Tomorrow before deadline, but if you are confident that the coins will be available soon enough, Icopress may allow you to participate and pay later on.

[Harkorede]

That makes two, I've been on the outskirts for the week and would probably be for the weekend...

The earliest I can send my tx would be Monday (~Noon GMT)// could be earlier though, if there is some work schedule changes.

cc @Trofo and @icopress, I believe regulars can get a let off until then, at least ? If cool, please do pm the link to join or league code and what have you ?

[nelson4lov]

Since the EPL and FPL is starting today, I have locked in my team for GW.  Quansah is a good CB but he doesn't have much attacking returns and Liverpool isn't one of the best teams when it comes to keeping cleansheets.

Mateta was my favorite ahead of Edouard but since it's only been a few days since he got back from the Olympics, they might give him a rest amd just bring him on as a sub.

3 of my Liverpool comrades because, why not?

Solanke + Isak + Salah will profit the attacking returns I need (hopefully). Still have 2m in the bank. LFG..

[goodpunt]

After my top 10 I mean top 8 finish from last season I will give FPL one more try
Just sent my buy-in.

Few days is ok for sure. I will send link to join to both of you in PM. But if you decide to use it, you must play. We can wait some time for the fees but there is no giving up if the season starts badly for you.

[icopress]

So. Fantasy is driving me crazy.

I spent about 70 hours (in total) in August on drafting and reddit and reading your comments. But it seems like my team is ready.



p.s. There are already 27 of us.

[icopress]

Lol I made changes again.

We have seven players in common (Nkunku, Henderson, Trent, Winks, Halaand, Pedro, and Isak). I just hope that switching from Barco to Dunk won't affect me. I've had roughly 5 drafts since yesterday. The first GW is usually difficult since you desperately want to be ahead of everyone.

27? Last season we had more than 40 i guess - where they go? Haven't we gotten to the stage where we all take an oath never to leave FPL for the next 5 years?

I went in totally opposite way this season. I ignored the whole preseason until the last friendly and somewhere around that point started consuming content, but only injury/transfer news with deliberately not looking at other people's drafts including yours here.

Still on my second draft only ( Not counting auto pick when I created the account for the season.), the third will be the final one and I will make it 15 minutes before the deadline. I think I have spent way too much time thinking about what other people are doing in the past. This season the plan is to start aggressive and let other people think about my squad.
Implemented the same in BSFL also.

[buwaytress]

I cleared out my first draft and went super aggressive taking all the top picks until I ran out of budget, then went for cheapest options that I saw a whole lot of people took. Don't be shocked. I finally dropped Nunez and Robertson from my squad. Aaaaand I bought Haaland. MF needs to be in the team if I want to compete, sadly.

If I didn't know how else to explain my GW1 strategy: follow as much as possible the crowd on their top DEF/MID/FW picks, then fill the rest in with cheapos.

How about we even the odds? If I finish above Trofo, you owe me 10 mBTC. If Trofo beats me (which he probably will) then so be it. Seems like a great deal considering he's won the league two years in a row... and you don't have to do anything except watch.

No, Trofo will lose this year. And I will not stand by to collect hundreds of dollars from his downfall heh heh.

Jesus, icopress, you're asking me to challenge you for 10mbtc? I want to say yes so badly, but I'm already giving away 2 mbtc participation fee here haha. But hey, I love me sidebets, so let's make it a very puny 2 mbtc and we're on! I know I love giving money away but you have to think of others who need my money too

I'll take it! To give you back 8mBTC later. Lol  

2mbtc simple one on who finishes higher. Bad luck to you, friend!

@buwaytress do you have any FPL or EPL side bet offer?

I only took up OP, sorry padi but max I can do is 1mbtc on simple "who finishes higher". For FPL. I would love to maintain my status as chief FPL donator but I am going to give it a better go this season (or at least not miss soooo many game weeks) and in that case I would prefer not to take your money

Or maybe I'm chicken against you this season -- but who knows, BSFL or midway, we can think of something. Or Second Chance Bottlers league haha.

You guys are ruining me honestly. I'll also do another 1mbtc "higher finishing offer" just to keep traditions alive. Is there anyone collecting info on sidebets because I know I will forget them. I've put this post in my saved messages.

===Sidebets (higher finish wins)===
icopress - 2mbtc
CLS63 - 1mbtc
Igebotz - 1mbtc (I'm penciling this in Igebotz without your confirmation because I know you'll say yes)

[ajiz138]

The lineup is ready.... spent a few days and searched for some information about FPL on Tiktok.

Exactly when did Osimhen come to Chelsea? I'm waiting for him to come. He'll deserve to be at Chelsea rather than Napoli because Conte doesn't seem to like him much...

[darxiaomi]

Team ready !

I spend.......... 30 minutes hahahahaha.

In this kind of games i really feel like if i overcomplicated or overstudy every single detail i ended up being more confused and undecided than before, so i try to keep it simple.

Good luck to alls!

[Rruchi man]

Team ready !

I also think I am ready for GW1 as well.

It was not easy selecting a team, but I think I finally have it.

Starting on a good note is everyone's target.

[Hhampuz]

Rodri injury ruined my entire squad... back to the drawing board.
