Accessing Your Coach's Skill Tree in Dynasty Mode

  • From the main landing page in Dynasty mode, select the coach tab.
  • Click into the abilities section to find your coaching skill tree.

Spending Coaching Skill Points

  • Your skill points are tracked by the C coin in the upper right corner.
  • Invest these points to enhance your coach's abilities.

Choosing Your Archetype

  • Start by selecting one of three archetypes: Recruiter, Tactician, or Motivator.
  • As a Recruiter, you'll need to reach level 10 to unlock certain abilities.

Exploring Hybrid Archetypes

Hybrid archetypes require points in multiple areas to unlock. Plan your path carefully to access these unique abilities.

Unlocking Powerful Branches

At the top of the skill tree, find Program Builder and CEO branches.These require significant points and long-term goals but offer major benefits.

Considering Archetype Costs

Upgrading within your chosen archetype costs fewer points than branching out. Look for hidden abilities that can reduce costs or offer discounts.

Strategic Planning

 Plan your skill tree development to maximize strengths and minimize weaknesses. Each archetype provides different bonus XP opportunities for your Dynasty play. 

Adapting to Updates

Note that ability tracks have been tuned and adjusted this year. Experiment with different builds as the META has changed, rewarding creativity and planning.
