Is that any better than playing a strong silver player that is in the correct position? Why is one tanking but not the other? You can argue the player learning the position might be better next season but you'll probably be in a league with different teams next season, which is the same as if you got demoted.

Is selling your best player for points any worse?
What about selling your two best players to save up for a star that you know you can't afford until next season?

It's really a lot more gray than you're making out to be. Honestly, I wouldn't be upset by CapeCodCranberry's team being in a different division in my league any more than a team training players at key defensive positions.

Tanking is when you ****can most of your players for complete garbage. I don't think it's worth arguing about selling your best players to raise funds.

If I started selling my best players would I field Iron cards? I can't, they were all auto sold.....not saved for a tank job.
