Before the first kick off had even landed. Very Happy

I hate not being able to drop rrs during a Season. It reduces roster management's flexibility.

Funny, I like it because it makes management harder. Like, "do you REALLY want that RR, knowing you have to keep it for 6 more games?"

I don't find that a hard management choice. I know how many rrs I want, most bash and hybrid teams are fine with 2 rrs + Leader or 3 rrs (it's possible to play with 1 rr + Leader of course, but that's a kind of heavy minmaxing I despise), while Elves and Vampires with 3 rrs + Leader, because more reliant on single-die actions. My problem is when a player with Leader dies, so I have to buy the rr at double price and probably replace the dead player as well.
In case of Elves it can be a problem, because they die often and are expensive to replace.
Sometimes I can only rebuy the rr and not replace the player (typically a Thrower).
Then, when the Thrower gets Leader, I have too many rrs (I can take first Sure Hands on him, but then, when the Season is over and I want to drop a rr, I have to play some games without Leader).
That puts the team in a bad TV zone and that means more damage suffered and more players to replace (or even struggling to find a game, since most games take place at low TV).
Being able to drop a rr would be better (or at least, we should have a shorter Season set at 10 games, 15 games are clearly too many, in my opinion).

I'd drop a RR once the team gets Leader, yes. Elves, Underworld, etc

I'd start Amazons with 4 RR but drop one, once the Blockers and Blitzers have Block
I'd start Norse with 3 RR but drop one, once the Ulfs and Valk have Block

It's not a team building problem that prompts interesting analysis, unfortunately
If I can't drop them during first season then I'll take the larger amount to ensure the early games are more reliable, and suffer the inefficency in the later games

So it's just a bit annoying, rather than interesting, imo
