Sorare Japan subscriptions into 2024 - a thread!
WHAT IS SORARE JAPAN? Sorare Japan began upon the request of a few early-entry Sorare managers, in late 2020, to help them avoid DNPs, and it grew from there.
GIVEAWAY! More shirts to come in '24!

GIVEAWAY! Yuta Taki!
LOVE this kid. Scored last w/e. Temp manager (Taki's long-term coach) might use him more!
RT this tweet, tag a friend, please check and reply done!
DRAW B4 GW220 from REPLIES! Thank you!
I did it! I invested in a Unique card!
Wataru ENDO was the perfect choice at a very decent price.
The captain of Japan for forthcoming friendlies, I hear, future long-term superstar and ever-present (he states, hopefully!).
Thought LONG and hard about it... pushed the button!
GIVEAWAY - competition - winner gets Kawasaki Frontale's Kyohei NOBORIZATO transferred to their Sorare account! Let me work out HOW to do this and get some interaction :-)
RT this and follow this account anyway, to be ready for the update on when and how this will be given away!
GIVEAWAY. RYU TAKAO! AGAIN! Love this guy!
Do nothing but RT with your favourite Japanese player's name! Feel free to say why, or comment more. I'll just be happy to see more exposure for Japanese players!
Random winner from RTs, March 11th.
?
I won Special Weekly! 1st place! That was a huge surprise! Basically chose random players who managed to qualify, who then all had decent games. Pure luck! 2nd Spec.Weekly win (1st was Japanese players only, so had to win that to prove I know what I’m talking about?!)!
Another GIVEAWAY! A player I LIKE a LOT! (As long-term followers will know!). LOW price reflects injuries throughout 2021. I feel (hope) he does well in 2022
RYU TAKAO
Quote RT with your favourite J.League player (and why? If you want!) That's all!
WHAT IS SORARE JAPAN? A thread...
Sorare Japan began upon the request of a few early entry Sorare managers, in late 2020, to help them avoid DNPs, and it grew from there.
Many posts here are now open to non-subscribers to view as "samples"!
GIVEAWAY! MATSUO. Love this kid. Yokohama FC relegated but am sure BRIGHT future elsewhere (if YFC let him leave!). So "promoting" him again!
How? Simple RT, after checking this link (and consider signing up!). Thank you for your support!
ENDS Dec.10! THX!
OUR season is DONE. It will be missed (until mid-Feb. TBC) but no the real fun starts. Contracts, transfers, release of players, poaching, approaching, buying, selling... players will be on the transfer merry-go-round in no time. Stick with this account for all the updates! :-)
REWARD GIVEAWAY - JEREMY MOREL - no need to follow but we have to do something to "qualify"!? Quote RT and give me a number between 1 and 100?! I'll get my daughter to choose on July 4th.
I won't use him so let's send him to a good home!
Thank you!
I started Sorare Japan to help increase interest in J.League - helping Sorare managers understand players/cards, helping them get better results > more interest in Japanese football.
Today I'm offering you chance to get J.League shirts (or other stuff) at reasonable prices!!
GIVEAWAY - Happy Xmas! This time follow here (obviously!) and RT
@SorareJapan
's PINNED TWEET tagging single friend who may be interested in subscription! Will random draw morning Japan time, Dec.27th will send out Yusuke MATSUO limited to his new home!
GIVEAWAY! Gamba Osaka Ryu Takao Limited.
Just check (& consider): then comment "Done"! Random draw hours before GW214 (his next game)!
(No big deal, cost 0.001, but free! And promotes one of my fave players, injured for a lot of season! He is BACK! Enjoy!)
After a year and a bit on Sorare I'm only sad that I've not been able to entertain Sorare managers at J.League games yet - can't wait for this "thing" to be over / better so I can meet Sorare people in Japan! Sorare Japan Tours sounds good to me!
So, some Spanish "Supercup" is getting covered suddenly, but no Asian Cup... sad. REALLY would have liked to see my Japanese boys getting more exposure on Sorare!
With new threshold/average restrictions, can Sorare work out average scores little more fairly, please? Medran 65? Fujitani not played in Sorare for 2 years - 64 average? Small galleries maybe need DNPs (average 0) to fill places? These "fake" averages restrict utility, no?
THREAD J.League teams are releasing their 2023 squads, with these cool graphics showing names on the backs of the shirts. t's also helpful to see YOUR players' names and see if they signed on again for 2023. Will update all as they are released. This Nagoya Grampus.
Been loving life on Sorare! New lease of life in depressing (& income-free!) times. New friends. Daily contacts with many people asking about game I love. People who rely on me for info (pressure! nteresting). And now I've made it back onto the
@Sorare_Podcast
! Thank YOU all!
Gamba played their 4th-choice GK today (Kato). Langerak (Grampus) was injured yesterday. Consadole played (seemingly) 3rd-choice (Nakano). Kim (Reysol) is MIA, Sasaki ding well, though. Sanga switch their GKs again... welcome to the J.League!
Happy Christmas from Japan ... less than an hour to our Christmas Day and I've just sent out the Sorare Japan updates! Transfers, loans, released players, ideas, comments, etc. Good night for now, will answer subscriber DMs, Discord, mails ASAP on Christmas Day!
Thank YOU Sorare Twitter, Sorare people, Sorare Japan supporters, followers, subscribers… had a wild year (14 months and counting) on Sorare. Welcoming people to J.League always the aim, and the highlight!
My Japanese boys doing the business for me over the New Year! No playing GKs, sadly, but $50 threshold, and Tier 3, Tier 5 rares coming, it seems!
Thank you, lads!
$240+ value of cards offered (on recent/latest trades) for $189 card (on latest auction/trades). Rejected as "way too low"? Disillusioned with market/traders/bots, but it's their prerogative. Enjoying Sorare otherwise, despite fact J.League about to end for a few months!
Have YOU bought a Sorare card just to "collect" as opposed to buying for utility, investment, potential profit? I have dozens of cards in my gallery of players I happen to know personally / like a lot, and just bought their card. Many will never be used in So5, but I "collect".
I send decent offers for many cards often, carefully TRY to offer 120-150% more in value in trade, or fair IMO ETH offer. VERY RARELY get accepted. Meanwhile get offers for 25% value of MY cards all the time. I'm not blocking / reporting but getting a bit bored of that! Stop it!
J.League "news" . . . Friday's season-opener - Kawasaki Frontale v Yokohama F.Marinos is now available - players can be used in All Star - on Sorare! Now we wait for more news ?!
My boys managed "threshold" in Cap 240 but only thanks to Reo Hatate's display. It's going to be hard to get this every gameweek.
May have scraped Tier 3 Limited elsewhere, also! ("projected" reward, dropped from Star earlier! Did I mention I hate "projected rewards"!)
Hopefully Sorare will see this and realise - and do something about it - that this is a major error by someone perhaps new to the game. Show that the management of Sorare have their players taken care of.
#sorare
this looks like a major typo during bidding… I hope this poor guy won’t get ripped off because of that… whether it’s fraudulent or human error, I hope there’s to resolve this in fait of the player
If you state 115% or whatever as your demand for trade offers and get one carefully made out for what is actually 125% on recent averages, why refuse the trade offer? You want to only choose the best players, too? Rant rant rant, sorry! Stick to your own rules, please.
Hayakawa scored today... it's J2, no not Sorare-connected, but it's a meaningful moment and great news. The player came back from years out of the game under treatment for Leukemia! He beat the b

@rd
. It's a good day!
I am expecting something VERY exciting and truly unique / a first in the Sorare world any hour now. Look forward to revealing to you something I've been working on for quite a while. Hoping to be able to share it in the next few hours!
Have been unsure of "legality" of giveaways in 2023 so stopped them. Even now, don't want to run foul - or have YOU run foul - of Sorare rules on loans, transfers, etc.
SO... how about J.League shirt giveaways instead? I'll find shirt(s), and then work out how it will be done!
Checked other manager's gallery first before blocking, but manager who has nothing but Limiteds making me $1 limited offer for Unique? Have to presume other manager is hoping for error on my part? (No ETH offered to get counter). Be careful out there!
Was I wrong to block?
** J.League GIVEAWAY **
ALBIREX NIIGATA no.12 shirt (fans R 12th man in Japan). Approx. overseas M.

(More, bigger, better giveaways coming!)
Going into the 2022 J.League season I think we need to either do thread, or perhaps, better, a video/audio thing with the correct pronunciations of the Japanese teams for Sorare managers doing their own (verbal/video) social media stuff! Would it be of use to anyone?
Getting a bit frustrated at seeing "Offer from X" and then not finding it because the manager making the offer couldn't wait 10 minutes for an answer? Guys... time difference, meals, sleep, family life? If making an offer, let it linger a few hours at least!
Sorare auctions include Kashima Antlers "stack" with SR of a retired GK? Well worth grabbing Hayakawa, it seems (though nothing is 100%, is it? New manager, new season, new ideas?). But the SR being retired already is not a good look? (HIrose already signed for Vissel Kobe, also)
Sorare! Goalkeepers! 2022 Japan will be exception in the race/puzzle/risk/expense. I’ll keep subscribers up to date ASAP on moves, and add to this thread, when I remember, and it’s relevant! Zion, Osako, Maekawa, Hatano, Oki et al are going to make or break many of us!
New gameweek deadlines:
Won't pretend to know Europe/Americas but seems Asia being penalised BIG time with double games in gameweeks often? Is this happening in Europe/Americas? Is it just to give "bigger" leagues more "advantage" on incoming info? Or to avoid double GWs there?
GIVEAWAY! Quote RT, tagging another account to enter draw. May 31st I'll transfer promising J1 youngster to winning account!
Please check my Patreon, also. 5 EUROS/month for previews, injuries, etc. lessen your DNPs, maximize profit, potential! THANK YOU!
We’re done, right?! :-)
LOL - this is why I don’t check scores and wait until game week is fine to see what happened! Now I’m all excited! But, yes, I am 100% sure 100s of managers will be overtaking me soon!
So, according to tweet from
@ni2las
of Sorare "J.League will be covered next season" (means games/players will be scored on S05).
HIs reply to me "hoping it will be licensed" seems to mean discussions are still ongoing as to whether new 2023 cards will be minted/licensed by J.Lg.
Tomorrow's J.League match

v
#Frontale
has been postponed due to a Corono virus outbreak at Grampus. Seven hours to deadline - change those teams!!
I’d like to think low offers are just managers trying it on and hoping but when an offer comes in for what seems 1/10 of the value it maybe us someone trying the extra zero/decimal point option? My first blocked manager!
Good news from Sorare on their official Discord feed:
"ETH User Names forbidden
We have introduced a new rule that forbids the use of 'ETH' in Sorare usernames. (cont.)
YOUR thoughts on the 240 Cap thresholds?Looks tough to me, but I seem to have managed it (OPTA-allowing, it's close) this GW! I have large gallery, lots to play with. Going to be harder for small galleries? How do YOU feel about the new threshold challenges?
In case you didn't yet see it. J1 kicks off exactly as noted to subscribers for weeks (months!?) now. Feb.17 Friday night opener is Y F.Marinos v K. Frontale, then onto the weekend of bliss! Welcome back. Start planning your teams and gallery!
As previously discussed, was ready for disappointment in my reward, and got that! Surely a "Star" is player CURRENTLY hitting heights, not one of potential, high (over-hyped) price?
Zion Suzuki has potential, is young, expensive. But is he a STAR reward? Your thoughts welcome
Surely if a "trader" makes you an offer they should also be offering 120-25%, no?
But certainly not about 65% of the latest value of your card, and theirs!?
CONFIRMED Ryu TAKAO, Gamba Osaka to Consadole Sapporo, where his style will perfectly suit attacking back-three DF. Straight replacement for Shunta Tanaka (who moved to Cerezo Osaka). Excited for a player I did a lot of giveaways of over my early Sorare months, promoting him!
J.League Sorare Licence comment... it SEEMS that J.League is looking for more from Sorare (MY thoughts only) and do not realise how many people have started following / watching (trying to!) their league through Sorare exposure.
COMPETITION - PREDICT Kawasaki Frontale starting XI to win this card! Rules in thread, but answer THIS Tweet with your predictions!
(Please RT this more more entries!).
1 pt. for each correct starter.
11 points maximum possible.
Winner gets Noborizato (via free offer on Sorare)!
Sorare - has introduced me to players, and teams I'd never heard of, through rewards, recommendations, offered trades.
I can only hope that it has done the same for YOU with J.League / Japanese players. The main aim of this account joining Sorare in the first place!
Holy **** I seem to have come 3rd in Asia D3!? Oita GK Shun Takagi was the final piece of that jigsaw, playing on Sunday and keeping a clean sheet for his relegation-threatened team.
Those "in the know" Asia is done, right? I never check before rewards time, just saw by accident!
So... Star reward. First time. Shall I hold long-term (U23)? Tell me about him? Price is good, so no complaints, though were about 20 others I was hoping for in rewards!!
(May be open to star Japanese trade offers, or multiple Tier 1 Japan trade, but keeping options open)
Pleasant surprise as my three starters earned me the upper (or any) threshold for the first time since J.League 2022 ended! Tsuyoshi Watanabe a dark horse for 2023 thresholds? (If his average doesn't soar before then!).
Welcome to the gallery
@osmaribanez
! Tried to resist investing in this classy player for a long time, but it had to be done in the end. After his Cerezo Osaka days, he qualifies for the position in a Sorare Japan gallery!! :-)
My latest 12 additions, managers asked:
Matsuoka - wanted another, big future.
Nakajima - like his potential.
Miyoshi - great player, another SR for Challenger.
Onose / Ishihara both underrated, under-priced. Tempted me!!
Cheap GK/FWs for training teams.
Slonina- common reward
Japan squad announced... surprises? Yuki SOMA in, ASANO (injured) in... NO Furuhashi, NO Osako.... also NO Hatate, but this was probably predictable. Get your teams ready!
J.League rumoured to start Feb.18 – still to be confirmed but as expected and stated here regularly it is indeed “mid-February”. Watch this space. Needs to start "early" to end before WC2022 preparations.
Thank you for your support over almost close to two seasons of Sorare Japan subscriptions. I HOPE it helps you, it has certainly helped the Sorare Japan home life in Covid-hit times! Your support is highly appreciated! Let's march on together!
Sorare: average scores, players sold to non-covered teams, even retired two years ago STILL have average scores based on single last game they played LONG ago when they were eligible. Misleading. Can these be fixed to 0/DNP, etc? (Happy to do Japanese! Give me timeframe/budget!)
Yet again failing miserably in "threshold" 240 tournament(s), but MAY (I don't follow "projected rewards"/I know K League has some scoring delays) have snagged a Star here - hopefully at least card of some kind - with my Vissel Kobe DF! Yamakawa growing nicely, Sakai just a star!
Decided I needed another Rare forward. Checked auctions. Just in time to see the 2023 1/100 Takuma Nishimura - THE player I have been procrastinating about buying for MONTHS - about to end. Had to make a bid. Over the odds, but 1/100. Why not! The spending stops here... maybe!

Can't wait till the world opens up and Sorare Japan J.League Adventures begin! Bullet train station pick-up, game ticket, dinner with a player, out on the town! Wait three days and head to another city! Two weeks three or four games!
Long-time Sorare Japan subscribers may remember this... hoping Sorare Japan can bring some specials to you for 2024, also! And that Ryoho Kikuchi is fit and ready to score high for us all! The GoAT is back!
FINALLY! 菊池 流帆 #菊池流帆 さんが私のチームに参加してくれました!!
@ryuupei4
welcome to my team!
I moved on a FULL team (13 of my boys) to get this GIANT! Now, who wants to join him?
Reminder: you want to ask about a player, please give full name (and even club) to ensure it's the right player we're talking about. Always ready to answer questions, though not here all the time! Slowly, surely, you get answered! Araki? Suzuki? Abe? Tanaka? Need full names!
Pet hate (thankfully not Sorare manager giveaways, more crypto accounts): announcing a giveaway with no time limit, and, worse, giving no proof of giveaway. (And those that delete giveaways, and cheat their way to followers by raising people's hopes? Scum!) Sorry. Off topic!
Have made some friends, invested some money, used my knowledge. This weekend is a big moment for subscribers and Patreons. Hope it's all you hoped for! But it is also HUGE for me, after waiting so long to use the cards accumulated! Wish ME luck, also!
BTW… great news for Limited buyers / low budget managers from Sorare! Limited bids now in lower increments!! Bid an extra 40-45 cents each time instead of $4+… thanks
@dansorare
- will help a lot of people.
See managers complain about OPTA/scoring matrices daily in Sorare community, but I keep out of it (and don't really look at it) as I can do nothing about it. BUT just noticed winning Frontale GK Jung got 17 pts last game. Did he disappoint an Opta judge's daughter, or something?
Five (?) Kashima Antlers players (no, do not know who) out in last week or so with Corona virus. Four before last game, one since. Consadole announced NINE players down with Corona. F.Marinos four players since yesterday. Keep up to date, avoid DNPs.

Right, as I said LAST Monday, I'm on with
@JohnNellis_
soon to record something for his amazing YouTube channel . I was premature/ahead of myself last week!! but this week it's ON! Thanks in advance to John for allowing me on!
Is he back? Two goals as a starter last weekend in the first game of the season, for his new team FC Tokyo. After many months of injury last seaosn and then just not being able to get into the starters again, he done good!
It's SO good to be back "live" on Sorare! Not much for me considering my gallery is 90%+ Japanese but might scrape a Tier 3 (but don't count chickens!) and threshold this week. It's good to be back. Happy "holiday season" to YOU!
That was a LONG day of research, and answering managers all over the world! I'm going to close my eyes and get licked to death by some dogs before a shower and some TV (possibly not football!!). Good luck with YOUR gameweek!
