(From Producer Hisai / Director Funakoshi)

Thank you very much for always using 'SEGA FOOTBALL CLUB CHAMPIONS.'

This post has been issued under the responsibility of Producer Hisai and Director Funakoshi, and is intended to explain things to everyone.

We have received many opinions and comments regarding the changes to the advantageous Approach in "RENAUD'S CHALLENGE" and the method of announcing these changes.

[Important] Explanation and Apology Regarding Changes to the Advantageous Approach in "RENAUD'S CHALLENGE"

The background of this matter is as stated in the notice above.

However, during the "SakaTsu Summit #2" (a closed event on Discord) held on April 3, some of the information reported to the participants was incomplete. Therefore, we are sharing the full details with all users through this notice.

In this notice,
1. The current state of the match environment and the intent behind adjustments
2. Issues and Future Policies Regarding Information Dissemination
I will explain this matter.

■ Current Match Environment

Currently, we have identified the following two major issues.
① The usage rate of gold Formation Combo "La Roja '24" is higher compared to others.
② The average win rate of the three-back formation is low.

■ Future Measures

Regarding ①
This matter also includes the impact of player sufficiency, and since late March, we have been adjusting "player sufficiency in each Approach."

Regarding ②
Regarding the 3-back formation, adjustments during matches are included, so we anticipate that it will take some time to address this.
We will refrain from disclosing detailed adjustment policies at this time, but we aim to make upward adjustments to bring it to the same level as the 4-back formation.

Additionally, to address the issue of limited options available in the current environment, the following measures are planned for the next update.

- Addition of 4 new gold Formation Combo starting from achieving Manager Lv10
※Acquisition through permanent missions

■Issues and Apologies Regarding Information Dissemination

Regarding this matter,
- Important changes were announced only on official X
- The reasons for the changes were not sufficiently explained
- Detailed explanations were provided only during Discord events

These have led to concerns about information inequality and lack of transparency.

Additionally, we deeply regret that we have caused a burden to all those who proceeded with training and team composition based on prior information.

■ Regarding Future Information Dissemination Policies

Currently, we are disseminating information globally through the following platforms.

- Official announcements (in-game/official website)
- Official X (JP / EN) and regional SNS (NAVER Lounge / Instagram / Facebook, etc.)
- Official YouTube channel and live broadcasts
- Official Discord
- Sakatsuku Summit (closed event)
- Producer's personal communications

From now on, we will operate under the following policy.

"Official Announcement"
The official announcement serves as the starting point for all critical information.
*Please note that due to the inclusion of translation support, there may be challenges with immediacy, but we will strive for improvement.

"Official X and Various Social Media"
A platform to share highly urgent content, such as game-wide issues, faster than official announcements.
A platform to announce official updates, including various campaigns.

"Official YouTube channel and live broadcast"

A platform to ensure information is widely disseminated to many people.
