The CUP issue again

[kd18]

I have a very normal team, my avg quality never goes above 5*, but I still have to play teams 2 or 3 levels higher than mine in the cup. They are very weak teams for their level, which means their manager isn't very active, because an active manager would have a budget of 35T and would build a better team. Their manager just buys some 5* players ending in 0 or 5 and beats me without any problems. I don't understand why these teams should win any trophies. Why give them the chance to win a trophy when they don't know how to play the game? And let's not forget about those managers who keep 1* players just to lower the avg quality of their teams... The most fair cup would be to put together players of the same level in a totally casual way...

I totally agree that they could take this one step further and categorize the teams based on quality AND level, but like I said, it is beyond the scope of Nordeus's intelligence and capability. that would be the perfect solution and would make everyone happy, but at the end of the day, all it takes is one token-happy moron to buy a squad full of scouts after the draw on day 1 and ruin everyones cup run. That is the price we pay for playing a game structured for profit.

That's the champions league without the group stages lol! Cracicots idea could be good, though I don't think theres enough teams on the same level to split it like that and make the cup last the whole season.

How can you say that considering there are 11 MILLION players? LOL. hardly.

But still, there are a ****load of players and it would not be hard to drill-down one more level and group based on level in addition to quality.

That being said, I would prefer they fix the 3 hour between game scheduling issue first, then troll engine with the illegal formation issue, then the substitution issue, then the friendly issue. This cup issue is last on my list of priorities as it is the least offensive.

I think there should be a 3-0 walkover if the opponent uses illegal formation...
