I have 5 accounts and am tanking 4 of them this season. I usually have a fight with one of them as they try to come in 7th and I have to invent ways to lose. If you feel you cant compete, tank. build up for next season and have 50% of your team as scouts. I do it EVERY season. next season I will only have one team tank and then it becomes a pain because I have so many more games to care about. When you tank, you build up on reds, blues and greens as you really dont have to use them. I would use the reds because if you dont, you miss out on skill points. but tanking means you really dont have to.

I have a theory, and so far it rings true, that you get put in leagues where almost everyone is the same quality if you come in top 4. when you tank or dont get promoted, you get put in a weaker league. therefore it pays to tank. My account that tanked last season is 104Q now with 7 scouts and 5 more a few skill points from scout. 12 out of 20 players scout quality or close to it. not bad. the next best in my leagueis 101.2Q and the rest are below 100Q with many in the 92Q-95Q.

so if you do plan on tanking, go full tilt, dont waver. try it and if you dont like it next season what have to you lose other than one season? its a game, not something you will lose your firstborn son on. Just try to come in last and that will be the new "first".

and even when they auto-assign skill points on the PC version I will still tank by playing OOP and dumb instructions....and then we will see if they even matter.

and yes, I am the resident professional on tanking.
