• Each team has a total of 1,200,000 gps to spend on roster creation and must hire a minimum of 11 players. Any unspent cash at roster creation will be lost and all teams will be considered having the same Current Team Value (CTV) for the purpose of inducements and prayers to Nuffle.

• Star players can only be induced after 11 regular players have already been rostered.
