The new cups are completely screwed and its bad news for scout buyers and power trainers as they have high quality relative to their own level and end up playing against higher level teams that are 1 or 2 levels above you which can simply go on the transfer market and dramatically improve their team by buying their regular 5* players.
This new cup structure SUCKS... no need to buy tokens anymore, every team is drawn on QUALITY rather than manager level.
I'm so pleased that I won the treble and power trained the last 3 seasons to win my last 3 cups (otherwise I would been too weak), now I wont see another cup again unless I return back to a regular squad rating for my level and power trained and bought scouts AFTER the cup draws have been made.
This new cup structure has virtually made winning the treble impossible for most teams now. If you were going to do it like this then it should of been done on LEVEL rather than quality.
the game is crap now is good time 2 quit it
good luck then!Quote:

i lot of ppl going 2 quit the game. have fun moderate yourself....
anybody care to say something? i just ask my friend and although his cup level is going down, his list is just good as beforeQuote:

Like I say, The cup draws are done on current team QUALITY rather than 128 teams of the same manager level as you, not point filling up the team with as many scout players now.Quote:

Prize money should be increased for each round of the Cup since we're now playing against teams of equal quality so win bonuses are important. Were the CL prizes reduced? I'm not sure.
HAH !! found the best strategy for next season !! if that's the case you certainly want to get highest quality on your first squad team and worst possible set up for your reserve and then you can win cup. damn it nordeus.. make me change my strategy every season.. i want to still enjoy this game without having to be a fat token buyer like everybody in my serverQuote:

I think the strategy is to have a crap team when the Cup is drawn, that is before the season update, then buy a full squad of 5* on day 1 before your Cup matches. If you had 3* or so to start with, you can get about +10 quality over your Cup opponents.Quote:

I'm not saying it's easy, but that's the best strategy for the new Cup. I do most of my transfers on day 1 and 2, I only sold two players in the last few days of last season.Quote:

hmmm still.. certainly in my server you don't want to sign new players too often. you certainly want to keep your players here. if my people follow your idea, then we will need to buy 22 players on the first day of the season which has high demand (it's crazy totally) and you will lose your tokens in the process. and selling them all on the last day of season makes the lost is even bigger. i don't know about your server, but this idea is not the best idea for me..Quote:

I've power trained my team to 100 quality by the end last season which means I'm too powerful for L15 at that point, Most other managers of L16/L17 had 100 quality normally, so when this season starts we are put into the cup against higher level opponents because my QUALITY is on a par with all these higher level managers because I bought scouts and power trained with hundreds of tokens and these L17/L18 players in my cup have players they paid a few tokens for off the auction list for a few tokens each, This puts the CUPs at a disadvantage of Token Buyers.Quote:

Thats what I'm upset about, I have players Like Stacey Papaleo who was 9* at the end of last season, and now having players like this is a major problem as far as trying to win another cup is concerned, If I want to win the cup this season, then I will need 11 players like Stacey Papaleo in my team this season and once I have won the cup then I would have to sell them all at the end of the season to get my Quality Average down for an easy cup draw next season and then I would need to buy another 11 players and train them like as if they were all like Stacey Papaleo again. I know another manager who wont be happy with these changes when he sees them, dv8r.Quote:

yes i understand. although my player was not anywhere near your papaleo's level, i also want to keep some of them who played well last seasons. i bought some of them from scout actually. how can you sell your scout player so easily? of course you want to keep them as long as possible. so, all we have to do now is getting 2 different full teams in our squad with highest quality difference possible at the end of the seasonQuote:

Thats exactly what I said earlier, Token buyers are at a disadvantage in these new cups.Quote:

but honestly it's fun to see token buyers battle each other not only in the market but also cup :D
Now Im very low morale - somebody give me a blue pack!
Oh comeon its only the preliminary, its like too many cooks spoil the soup. Yes they hear the grouses by lower level players which I totally agree. But to implement changes without using your brains is another thing.Quote:
