Am I the only one who feels that every time I come up with a (I feel) great team name, something horrible happens?
Like having a blitzer killed in the first match and then another in the next one.
The I retire the team and that sweet name is lost to me. And then I sorta regret having retired the team... |

Don't retire the team? Players die? I've rebuilt Death is Forever like 30 times from nothing |

I know it's hard when a team get crippled in the first few matches, but if you like the fluff (and a great team name is part of it), turn it into a story - into that unique team's story. And eventually you (and your team) look back at those very first, rough steps, are proud and laugh about it! |

Sometimes I just restart a team but keep the theme, either by spelling the name slightly differently or by adding a number at the end. Not an ideal solution but I think it beats the alternatives, for a new team crippled in the first few games. For older teams that have a history I do try and rebuild. |

These are not emojis, rather they are unicode characters. That's why they work |

Yeah, I normally just put [R] or [B] next to a team I want to restart. Or use a pair of hyphens as brackets. |
