New Cup Format - Token Buyers are DISADVANTAGED

[ice87s]

Damn it. I was busy last night (getting drunk) so when I eventually woke up late today my Cup game was already played, didn't expect this new format so the team I left yesterday evening was not my best. Managed to win 2-1 against a manager of the same level, but better quality than me. It kinda sucks, tbh. My friends are not in the same Cup as I am. Not even my main rival and good friend Cv9, though he is the same level as I am and roughly the same quality, and it's annoying, especially since we played the last 4 Cup finals against each other. I mean, yeah, more competition, but honestly, the old Cup system was better: I already have CL and the League to test my nerves against good teams, I liked a competition where I could kick ass and chill a little, at least in the first stages.

Thats what I talking about, I used to play with more than 10 friends in CUP and CL, but now, NO ONE.......

When I heard about the new cup format I thought my first opponent would be around L12, gradually working our way back up to my level towards the cup final to give us some challenge and I thought it would sound ok, What I didn't expect or want is thrown into Top Elevens version of the royal rumble where all 128 teams in the cup are of equal quality at the beginning of the tournament. The aim of this cup is simply survival.

Totally agreed......
No point to change format, we still have to face higher level player bcoz of quality based system.....
Most importantly, right now, none of my friends are playing in both CUP and CL match bcoz of this new format... What is the points?

Hopefully, there will b some friends in coming League....

I am happy that token buyers have something to worry about now. This is the way it should be. Live by the sword, die by the sword.

I went ahead and submitted a ticket using July Fourth's format...

L1 Beginners Cup
L2-L5
L6-L9
L10-L13
L14-L17
L18-L21
L22-L25
L26+ Shark Tank Cup.

This new system sucks!
I used to win almost every cup while facing great opponents starting from quarter finals. Now every single team I've faced in the finals from the beginning of my career are facing me in here.
Even token buyers that I enjoyed watching arriving to round 50 for a useless player are here. The lowest squad is as strong as I am. I guess the quality difference in the cup competition is now 10pts and I guess i am in the stronger cup of my server as I am the highest level in the server.

i disagree .. i love it
last season i had an easy ride till semi & final
this season is awesome .. many active managers in cup .. very strong sides as good as yours
it just encourage me to even be better and improve my side
people need to enjoy the game rather than trying to wining cup by beating less inferior teams

Its more even on quality to begin with but what if you were one of the lower level side that had a full scouter squad and made it all the way to the final and played someone 3 levels higher than you and this manager went into their scout list and bought a scout team which would make a team a legends against yours and you couldn't go back into the market to buy more players to match your opponents quality so easily, It wouldn't make it fair at all. Because you started off withe scouts to begin with your opponent buys legends you can't respond by buying more players in a fair manner.

Yesterday when they draw the cup, I was facing a level 6 at 35.2* average and today he was 42.6*.... I am level 4 at 37.2* average....I did not pay attention to the change of time (my bet)and lost 6-1 the first game......guess how my feelings are about the change...!!!
