Cup changes

[Moi]

Hi Moi,

I don't understand your post Moi , cause Cup draw was already calculated with the 14 best players ! And with your post it's a league trophy who is illustrated , so i'm confuse ? Would you mean league draw or cup draw ?

EDIT : an april fish ?

No, it wasn't like that. The game was not taking into account unsigned players for its calculations.

To be honest, some people are right, this might make others to take advantage of the new system but I don't think this was such a big secret and it was pretty much also visible. At least is good that we know exactly the numbers now. Would be also good to know for CL and League exactly because for me CL is a big mystery.

PS: Why there's League trophy on this picture ?

As Tactician said, it still can be manipulated. Say I'm a Level 10 team (I guess 100%=70Q) and I have 3x20Q and 11x80Q players. My average then is only 67.1, that is only around 90-92%, while my Top 11 are around 140%. They could've made it Top 11 players, then it'll take a lot of resources to make an 8* team for my level.

I don't agree with the proposition about the Cup would be only for the same level teams.
With that way, only the wealthy teams (token buyers/farmers) will be the top dogs of the competition.
If they know that they 'll face only teams from their level, they 'll increase much more the quality of their team and make them unbeatable in all the competitions.
Now at least there is some "brake" to that because of this Cup draw (hope and fear).
But Cup should be something unique.
I don't know how, maybe using only the "bench" players of the team ? The weaker ?

...coming again about that is true the sugegstion that this system would work better just taking a look at the , not top 14 players, but, the better 3-4 or 5 players.
With this system that seems exactly same easy to implement as this new, because is the same just with the change of 14 players to 3-4 or 5... then the system will work better...

Despite all... I think that players "always in good form" are who have more complicated to win the cup for this system, so as suggested some time try to do cups of 3 levels per 3, can be a solution and if is needed to take more teams, as CL do when are not enough is ok... but do the cups bases in levels 1 to 3, 4 to 6 7 to 9 and try to respect this limit would at least give fair chances for a cup 1 of 3 seasons.
Thats all, and has been all by my side.

I agree with that

Could they not have the Cup draw earlier? Do it a week before the season ends. Not too many would bother manipulating the draw. Plus I wouldn't wake up on the first day of the season to see my Cup match already happened.

This is also a good suggestion.

+1.... taking into account the Av. Q. of the day 20 of last season for example.... also good....

or best 5 players and no best 14 as said.

What if your best 5 players are those players that you bought from the scout's list or recommendation's list in that particular season? You would probably face a much stronger opponent, for instance a team who has 11 7- star players (likely to be a team from at least 2 levels above), but was judged to be fair to play against you according to your proposed 5 best player rule. The minimum amount of players to be taken into consideration should be at least 11.
