Your Club is Born
After registration you land straight in onboarding. You choose your home country — Germany, England, Czechia, or Slovakia — give your team a catchy name, and baptize your stadium. Then it gets real: from up to 30 talents you select at least 23 players for your roster. Every candidate has different strengths — take your time and compare!
Aim for a balanced mix: 3 goalies, 8 defenders, 7 wingers, and 7 centers. That way you're ready for any situation.
Your First Lineup
No sooner is the last player signed than you hit the tactics board. Under Games → Lineup you set up 4 lines of 5 skaters each: center, left and right wing, left and right defense. Plus a starting goalie — your number 1 — and a backup for emergencies. Don't forget the captain: he gives your team a motivation boost.
Don't leave your lines empty! Missing players on positions give your team a noticeable penalty in matches. In a pinch the system auto-fills — but that costs line chemistry.
Here We Go!
As soon as enough teams are in your league, gameplay starts automatically. You see your matches in the calendar and can watch your team hit the ice. In the first few days not much happens — perfect to look around and fine-tune your tactics in peace.
