would you add as a friend or not?

[rastaman70]

I received a friend request. Since friend's are drawn up with you in a league competition, I am cautious of who I add and who I don't add. This friend seem like a full time token buyer. Don't misunderstand me, I have nothing against token buyers but if they are gonna be on my league competition, I would not have a chance of qualifying or even lifting the trophy.

why bother adding friend you dont know? with friendlies meaning jack squat now, its all about making sure they are not in the same level. If they are levels below you or above you, friend them all you want, but stay away from people at the same level and you never have to worry about them in the same league just in case they do buy tokens.

and this one you post pics of, I would say a mild token buyer or a serious token farmer. there are too many players with only one position to be a medium or serious token buyer, so frankly, as long as you are mostly 5*, you should be able to at least compete with this person. but best just to avoid them.

Of course, its a matter of personal choice, but I like to have in-game friends. It makes the game more interesting, and you're almost guaranteed that they are playing regularly. To make my point, see my current league table:

Let me tell you my story this season...
First opponent from CUP. I defeated him first match.. (he is Vietnamese)
Then he sent me a friend request. Fine accepted it.
Then, he arranged a friendly.. I won the friendly and lost the second match of the cup. Luckly on the first game
I won by a good margin so I qualified for the next round of the Cup.

Then he was in the same league when the list of teams was published on the 3rd day.
That guy was playing me on round 6. He arranged a friendly before the league match.. I won... Then he changed his formation and I lost in the league.

Today, was the second match against him on the league. Yesterday he arranged a friendly agaist me.. I won 4-2.
He changed his formations and strategies and today we played for the league and I lost 2-3 (had win bonus 600K)... and I also lost the lead of the league.
He is 5th or 6th at the moment...

What I learned... In order to win the league, I will not be adding friends from the same league. Do not give any chance or weapon to your opponents to discover your weaknesses (no formation is flawless). Besides, no pro team in Europe, Brazil, Japan, etc have friendly matches with opponents of the same league or division.. so that is what I will be doing from now on.

Also, found out that win bonus is useless... what it really matters in this game is FORMATION! Of course you need good players and strategy but on a similar level, formation is what it matters!!!

If a long time friend get in my league (I have a friend since lv 2 and we always support each other during matches but never got in the same league or cup or CL), then I will unfriend them that season and add them at the end of the season. If they do not accept friend request anymore, so be it.
