Ask a HT

IMO this thread should be here to see what the HTs answer s.t. our members here can see that if they miss the thread in Global:

And the most important thing:
Our dear friend Kemal managed that an HT answered his question. OK it was just three letters but hey, that's not bad...

On Special Events, is it correct that the chance of a non-wheather related special event occuring during a match (just that it occurs, not whether it is succesful or not) is relative to the division level the match is played in?

No.

Well, I have to say the answer surprises me... it obviously means that you should be seeing a lot less corners in lower divisions (since they are created using set pieces skill as the rules say, and lower divisions have lower set pieces skill), which is totally against what my observations and own experience tells me.

Also, if not relative to div level, it means chances of a corner appearing in a match are apparently fixed for each level of set pieces your sp taker has.

Any of you got a question in? Probably no point adding them now, as they'll never get answered in time...

Not necessarily. I have a titanic set piece guy. and I'm in the bottom division in the US. High set piece guys with low skills in other areas are surprisingly cheap. even their salaries are cheap.

True, but in the higher divisions, everyone will have at least a half-decent sp-guy. Plus, the lower divisions are actually loaded with inactive/bot teams that most definitely will not have a high SP guy available, so I think the assumption that on average SP is better in higher divisions is solid.

As for getting it answered in time... the "ask HT" week only lasts for a week, and my question was asked on monday morning. In the meantime, 300 more questions have been asked, while the HTs will stop answering on friday.
