Premade teams for Academy.
What if, in an effort to make the initial games easier and less intimidating, There were premade teams for Academy.

You simply selected one, and boom youre playing a starter team.

This might make inviting new players to come play at Fumbbl, and building our player base a little easier, and a little less intimidating on first visit.

In addition, if someone wants an academy starter game, make it more visible that they are looking for a game, so that someone can jump in and play them/help them...

Might breathe some life into the academy, rather than dropping people in Ranked or Box and them quitting after just a few games.

I like this idea.

Have academy have no team building whatsoever. You can very easily play a game using starter teams, but there's no postmatch sequence. Instead, prompt players to make their own team in B or R after they finish an A game.

Showing people who are waiting for an A opponent on-site would complement it very nicely.

Really good idea.

Me and Ro had the same idea about two months ago, and the only thing left is the client to support it as I understood. It is all part of making academy a unique division, just wait and see.

Awesome idea. Get in a quick game to teach someone the basics without having both coaches waste a lot of time on building a team they won't play much with anyway. Thumbs way up!

@Woodstock: Reading between the lines, it seems as though something cool is in the works. Great news.
