Here's a screenshot from the Inducement Results screen. The coach names are only placeholders (*Home Coach* and *Away Coach*). The real names are nowhere to be seen.

During a match, the only way to see who you are playing with is if the opponent sends a chat message. Otherwise you can only see his name from the match lists after the match is finished. If the connection drops at the beginning, you can't see it even then (this has happened to me three times in two days).

Is this an intentional feature? It sure would be nice to know the coach name of your opponent straight from the beginning. Feels more human and comfortable that way.

Don't know if the lack of coach names in the inducement screen is an error or not - but if you do want to find out the name of the opposing coach after the match you can check the list of recent games in the game foyer.

You can also see the coaches names from within the game. Click their team name at the top of the screen, then you can see the coach name at the top. Switch to your team and you'll see your coach name there.

Doesn't help if they drop the connection before you get the dungeon loaded. Seems to be a common practise if you get mismatched TVs or the Rainbow team draws a high TV dwarf team to drop out before dungeon load.

Ahh, I'd missed that sentence in the original post - thanks for pointing it out.

Correction: The coach names are visible during the match when you click either team name, which reveals the list of players in reserve, dugout or on the pitch. The coach name is on the top of that screen.

In my view, this lessens the impact of the missing names to a great degree. Sorry I didn't notice this earlier.

EDIT: Also sorry I missed Rogue's post above saying the same thing. How that happened, I have no idea.

The coach names were added in patch 11.0.0.5
