Cup competition - unfair

[Buffs Mad]

Its the same for me every season. My opponents in Cup, and even now in CL one or two levels above. at least 10-15 skill over my teams. This means if I do very well I can get to the playoffs nothing more.

In other words, I never have a realistic chance of winning the title in eighter of the tournements.

This IMO is a big drawback in this game, because it ruins the motivation, when winning is unrealistic even with some good/lucky results

You have no option but to try to close the Quality gap by being Defensive and for extreme gaps Hard Defensive. Often first to score wins but its no guarantee it'll be you. Just pick an attacking player to pin your hopes on give him a red arrow, try to hit him with a Long Ball and when it happens scream "Run like the wind!"

Yeahh, but this never happens 5 times in a row (needed for CL)

Sorry, but I ignored CL as its a Cup thread. Higher level CL draws is a separate issue relating to population (mainly) - its not the same as the more routine issue of facing 'improving after the draw' higher level teams like in the Cup.

ok, your right. It was just ment as an example.

the last four in my cup this year, after my knockout. again if I should have won, same scenario 5 matches win against way better teams.

final four





Mission impossible (without Tom Cruise)

I completely understand. There are scenarios where it wont help. For example, I got to the ultimate match in a 4 levels higher Cup (before Q manipulation) but still didn't help me get over the final (pun intended) hurdle against an 8* team. It helped me get there but its not a 100% Do It FTW
