I am furious!!!!

That is true 48 level is highest level on server 1 and they have only 1 league (14 teams). I am just unlucky, cause I have friend on 44 level same quality as mine and he is playing 45 level CUP. I am just unlucky for being 45 level, so I am playing 48 level CUP with 25-35Q strongest teams.

IF YOU WANT TO PLAY SIMILAR LVL TEAMS FOCUS ON CHAMP LEAGUE. seriously have none of you read the descriptions of the different leagues? All this complaining about something that is working as it is intended. I'm american and people call us spoiled brats that expect handouts to make things "fair" and i guess the rest of the world is like that too. Stop complaining about something that is working how it was designed just because it's "unfair" to you. CUP WASN'T DESIGNED TO BE FAIR TO YOU. IT WAS DESIGNED TO SHOWCASE YOUR ABILITY TO OUTSMART BETTER TEAMS, OR BE OUTSMARTED BY OTHERS.
ps: I lost my first cup game 1-4...
pps: you don't see me crying about it.

Muskrat, I am with you about crying, but there is something with a cup system if you cannot get passed the 1/8th finals with a 6 star team full with special abilities. There is nothing with tactics there, you just face stronger teams. I haven't complained about the first 15 seasons, but it is getting old now to get kicked out of the cup without ever having a chance. Again, in the cup you get punished for playing good and keeping your team. You get rewarded if you sell the whole team at the end and just keep some 3 stars in your team to get a low rating. That is just plain stupid. It should be about the quality during the whole season. That way it isn't possible to cheat.

I was just checking my trophy stats and I found something interesting. This is on IOS and checked how I have been doing. Go manager -> Trophies and here is something I want to confirm with other players. I ended second in first season. Then I go the trophies of the second season. I win the league and the CL over there. Below the prices it says level 2. Below the cup trophy it says level 4? Is that how the cups are rated? Next season league and CL lvl 3, Cup level 6. In season 11 I see lvl 10 under my league trophy, but lvl 15 under the cup. Does anybody know if these are somehow connected to your powerlevel for the cup?

Cup like is now make your team, that can be the best of your level, as a 4th division team, and that without count the differance in market terms.

Here the problem, and my position will always be to defend as I've said a system that at least put you "in the group/pot" of the favourites/market advantadged (or how the he-- is called that lol) at least 4 seasons per year, I tink thats fair.
Then teams will plan the seasons a little bit different probably...

[muskrat]

first of all cup is based on a quality range, not a level range. i was looking at teams in my draw. there is a guy lvl 25 vs a lvl 4.... but quality is relatively the same.

second, why, killroy, would nordeous cater to the free to play/ppl that don't spend much money on this game? They would go out of business. They need to make money too. PPl that spend money, win cups. why? Because they have the resources, ie money, to make their team superior. granted there are a few smart people that win the cup as well that don't spend money.

this is a business, not a handout for free. they want you to see your team sucks so spend money on tokens, or packs or whatever so they don't go bankrupt.

[Cat Harrison]

The level is totally tied to Quality, the levels you see Killroy show what highest level team was in that Cup.


The Cup is supposed to be different from CL, that is intentional. So, changing the format to be like CL would be ...boring.

I have won the Cup more with my no money and farm teams, by far.. so I think the Cup _is_ good for managers who don't want to spend.

With the take over feature this has made it harder at the top, as people who were struggling there take over a lower level team, the draw takes in more levels down.

PPl that spend money, win cups.

Did you read Beck's guide? lol

different levels in the Cup - no surprise! but different levels League - ridiculous! Pre congratulate the opponent on his victory!

Look at the club level, you are playing at the same level. He has probably overtaken a lower ranking team. His manager level remains the same


(A bit confusing Yes)

[Aurra_rus]

This club level! This league!
