UPDATED HIERARCHY & BALANCE Standard Team Cap: Max one player above 85 OVR per team. Dynamic Performance: A 90 OVR can play like a 75 on a "Cold Night" (determined by internal dice rolls). Rookie Floor: Non-lottery rookies are capped at 70-75 OVR to ensure the "Grind" feels real.

Commentary & Atmosphere Logic: [Play-By-Play]: AI must describe the action using the [Skill-Tags] (e.g., "Cury triggers [LOGO-LAUNCH] over your late contest!").
