Emnet: friendlies vs. training

So I've taken to studying how the big dogs run their teams, and something I've noticed and definitely want to ask about is the friendly vs. training deal. I'm pretty sure I read in the guide that training isn't as effective on game days because the players are recovering...but if everybody's playing 31 games a month, i guess that's what i should do. but is it as straightforward as that or is there a trick to building team chemistry and experience and still getting adequate training in? is it as simple as building your regen and training complex so high that playing a game a day with no breaks ever becomes irrelevant? thanks to all for educating me on the matter.

Well I cannot speak for others, but I use A team and B team. A team is for league games and b team is freindlies. 4 lines on A 3 lines on b, for a total of 38 players. My A team backup goalie starts all my b games. Just keep your training and regen even and get as high as you can afford. The reason, I use b team for friendlies is they gain exp and chem, at much lower rate, but it all adds up if you have an ijury.

Does your A team stay at 100 Chem?

it takes a tad over 2 full seasons to get your lines at 100% playing A team for league games, they drop down to 98 from Friday to monday. so it is not a big deal. Your chem goes up about 1 per four games and about 1 exp per 9-10 games, for freindlies.

But it is real rare for me to have 4 lines at 100% chem, as i am changing out young players. But my top 2 lines are almost always at 98-100.
