Do generated players get/develop quirks?

[hockeyyt988]

I have a stud 1B. Potential is 99, he’s an 80 and only 20 years old. He has no quirks and neither do any other prospects.

I didn’t look that closely but does anyone know if generated prospects have/develop quirks?

They do develop them.

I believe when a certain attribute reaches a certain number, it puts the quirk in. For example, if a guy gets a rating in speed of over 90 (guessing), he will get the speedster quirk.

Speaking on speed, I think the threshold is 80. From what I can tell at least.

But some probably just appear randomly or trigger when a certain overall is hit.

Playing in 2032 with a huge amount of the league being game generated, and just looked and a bunch of players have them.

I will say in my multiple iterations of studying draft classes as well as progression and regression, this is something I haven't paid a lot of attention to.

I may run another simulation out of curiosity just to test it and see.

I'm wondering how he works with the quirks that don't have obvious ratings attached.

Like night/day home/road quirks.

And stuff like the quirk that says they hit breaking pitches. I forget what it's called Framil Reyes has it.

If you do that, please let us know your findings.

I play every 6th day (rotating starters) and I’m in 2025 now so starting to see my 2022 prospects coming up (or very close to) hence the reason for my question.

If you’re finding a pattern, might be something to look for when scouting.

Would love to hear your findings if you do indeed run that sim test.

Yeah I wonder that too. I bet some quirks are attribute tied and others are random. I bet for the random ones, the game engine allocates and thus balances how many players can have that quirk.

Could be different cap/ceiling for different quirks to keep balanced stats.

Idk all speculation. Quirks are something I’ve rarely looked at in the past but trying to do so a bit more to know what I’m working with.

Sometimes I'll.put everything on auto and sim really far into the future just see how well the balance holds up and what the league ends up like.

Maybe I'll do it and take a look at the generated players to see what shows up as quirks

If you (or anyone) does that, I would love to see the results.

Heck, maybe I’ll do it too haha
