Is TE unfair??

[Tactician]

Hi all,

I'm in level 25 now, I have been addicted to TE, but day after day I discover that it is a "by chance" game, and it is just unfair.

In my last season, level 24, I bought more than 12 scout players, this means more than 600 tokens. My starting eleven were all scouts, and I even had scout substitutes. My team was a 6 stars team, and I didnt face any team with a higher quality than mine through the whole season. The result was: not winning any title. Second in league, knocked out in the quarter finals of the champions league by a team that is much, much weaker than me after winning the first away leg! The most important point here: scout players make no difference, 90% of the scout players i got got a 5 or 6 rating in most of their matches, and I ended up selling them!

In this season, level 25, I changed the system. I'm not depending on scouts anymore as its a waste of tokens. I had what I thought a better idea. I followed the best players in my friends' teams. Players who got a rating of 7, 8, or 9 in all their matches. I bought a full team of such players by negotiations, and you know how it is hard to buy a great player from another team. I paid more than 150M for a single player. The result is that those players who used to have very high ratings with their previous teams started getting a rating of 6, or even 5, when they arrived to my team. My team now is a 5 stars team, I still have the highest rated team in the league. The result is: I'm fifth in the league, I lost 4 out of 10 matches there, 2 of the losses were by 3 or 4 goals. I lost 3 out of 5 matches in the champions league and I'm knocked out from the group stage for the first time in 25 seasons. I lost 0-4 in the cup, and I know that I will never win a cup since all the teams I play with are 1 or 2 levels above me, not only in this season, but from the day I started playing TE.

What I know is that TE is a game. And in any game, the best player is the one who play more, think more, and maybe pay more. But here in TE, its all by chance, and its simply unfair! because when you have a team of scouts you dont win, and when you have a team of the best negotiation players you dont win. What else can you do to have a strong team???

Don't waste money on this game. It seems that the results are affected by other factors other than quality and tactics. I have noticed that for some particular matches, especially two cup matches, the results seemed to have been already decided before the matches even started. The comments are there just to give you the impression that the matches are actually being played. Also, this game contains many flaws.

I have bought a lot of tokens too, and I worked a lot on tactics. But still, my team was beaten 5-1 on aggregate by a weaker team using an asymmetrical formation. The way the comments 'went' for the two particular cup matches, I could clearly see that it was already decided that my team would lose. The goals that my team conceded 'came out of nowhere'.

It is not worth putting so much money in such a game. Just play the game with the resources provided.
