Celebrities Bring Additional Perks To Teams
A week ago Blitz announced that it would be bringing in Celebrity Players for the upcoming Season 5 draft. Each celebrity in the draft comes with their own overhead, marketing team and expenses – these things are not a downside, but a draw for prospective teams to look at signing one of the celebrities. Each celebrity comes with their own perk that the team will enjoy while they are on the teams roster.
When a celebrity is acquired and paid their salary, the acquiring team will roll a dice on the following table to determine what perk their celebrity comes with. Perks last for one season and are re-rolled each time a celebrities contract is acquired/renewed.
A Team may only ever have one Celebrity player on its roster at any given time. Celebrities don’t like to share the fame and spotlight with other celebrities.
Celebrity Perks
- Nuffle: Never to be out done, Nuffle is the celebrity now. No perk is granted.
