You have the opportunity to change your lineup in the Kickbase app until the start of matchday ⚽📱.
1. Setting Up Players:
Until the official start of matchday, you can adjust your lineup and formation as you like. Use the drag & drop function to select 11 players from your squad that you want to field. Simply drag them into their respective positions on the field. Note that you only receive points for players you actually field. Quickly identify injured or unfit players here and replace them with others. Players not in your starting lineup won't earn you any points, even if they perform well in real-life matches. Tip: Make sure to sell players in time to keep your account balance positive – points are only awarded with a positive balance 💰.
Members can also analyze their squad through LigaInsider (click on 'Squad' in the Manager tab and on the field – the LigaInsider logo is visible in the top right, providing direct access to LigaInsider).
2. Points and Achievements:
Your points and achievements are solely based on the players in your lineup. Therefore, ensure you select the best eleven for the upcoming matchday to maximize your score. Final points are usually available from Monday 6:00 PM onwards, with achievements a bit later on Monday evening 🏆.
3. Changes:
Changes made after 8:29 PM apply to the following matchday. This means adjustments made after this time won't affect the immediately upcoming matchday. Substitutions during matchdays are not possible ⏳.
4. Number of Players Set Up:
At the top right next to the lineup, you can see how many players you have already set up, for example, 9/11. This provides a quick overview of how many spots in your starting eleven are still vacant 👀.
5. Countdown to the Next Matchday:
Directly next to the display of set up players, you'll find a countdown. This indicates the remaining time until the start of the next matchday. It keeps you informed of how much time you have left to optimize your lineup ⏱️.
