Creating teams

After this section you will know how to create new teams. If you already know this, you may safely skip to the next section which explains how to purchase players.

As with a lot of other things, team creation starts from your overview so click on the overview link if you are not already there. Then click on the Create New Team link that should be somewhere in the middle of your screen. You will get to a page which asks you to choose a division. For your first team, either Academy, Ranked, or Unranked division is your best choice. You can read more about the divisions on the division specific rules page.

Next page will ask you for the race you wish your team to have and the team name. Simply pick your preferred race from the dropdown list and type in a team name. Due to the vast number of teams already in existence, you might need to try a few times to get something that is not already taken. You can read more about the races available on FUMBBL - along with recommendations for starting rosters - on the race-specific rosters, strategies and tips page. There is also advice on which race to start out with.

Also some leagues allow you to accumulate Ranking if you choose. Currently only Ranked allows you to play ranked games while all other divisions do not. For your first team, it is usually wise start in Academy or Unranked if you are concerned about it (or expect to be concerned in the future) because it generally takes a few games to get the hang of how things work in a new league. Whatever decision you choose here will apply to this team for the remainder of your team's career (unless you transfer the team into Unranked Division), so think about it first.

Please note the rules regarding team and player names. They are quite simple and really just common sense. Follow them.

When you have found an appropriate team name, you will be taken to your overview and you'll be ready to purchase players.
