Why does this game allow primes? It's a bit like saying - No you don't have to be a very good manager, your tactics can stink, your transfer dealings can be awful and you don't have to be bothered to put time and effort into your team, but it doesn't matter because you can win games by buying primes.
It is equivalent to bribing the ref because you sure as hell don't demonstrate any skill or effort by using primes.
I don't criticise people for using primes but I think Striker Manager devalues the game by allowing them.

i'd consider them to be more resembling of a team "pep talk" before the game, or something to simply boost the entire team's performance for one game.

1. using primes don't guarantee you'll win, and honestly i wonder why anybody spends GB on them. which leads me to

2. i could think of a few better ways to blow 50 GBs than using them for a "pep talk" that doesn't even work a lot of the time. but since it costs real money to buy GB, if someone feels they need to spend real money to defeat you, then i guess you're just that good. haha

I agree.

So far I had two games against "doped" opponents. I won one 3:1 and the other 3:0. Seems to me that someone regreted wasting precious GBs...:lol:

Last season I played a match where my title rival used 3 premiums in our match, he still lost. So I don't think they do that much unless the teams are pretty even. 21/07/2011 08:43

You give your team a boost buy paying 50 GB in a match. Almost like performance drugs! 21/07/2011 14:49
