The OOTP Developments Team makes a great game and is very generous to the free player way, way more than most games of this type. I've been playing Perfect Team for 7 years now and I am still in the learning phase. If my team is not where I want it to be I blame myself for making stupid mistakes, not combinators! I dislike combinators and have never used one, but I think the mistakes I have made this year hurt far more. The biggest one which I am ashamed to admit is qualifying for PTCS 8 in the daily draft category and then waiting until the last minute to draft. When the last minute arrived, I sadly realized that the actual last minute was 60 minutes earlier.
