Somebody tell me why level 3 teams are forced to play teams 3 levels above them? There is almost no chance of my team winning. When I get to level 6, do I get the luxury of playing the first few rounds of the cup against level 3 & 4 teams? It's a bit frustrating...maybe this is normal in the T11 world?

If you let your team deteriorate and don't replace anyone as they lose stars, then by level 8 you may well be playing against 'good' teams 3 or 4 levels below you.
It's up to you, the better the team you have then the better the quality of teams you play against.
Put it this way, I've been playing for 16 seasons and won 6 or 7 leagues, 5 Champions Leagues but only won the Cup once!!! It was a great feeling to purposely built a Cup winning team (selling good players to get a better draw etc) and it working!
