I really have no idea how this game works, but I don't know why I keep playing! I started playing in june 2014, I played for some months and then I rage quit. I started again this year and in just 10 levels I won a lot! Guess what? I spent nothing at all! It's my own personal politic, I never spend a buck in pay to win games, or whatever. I would rather buy the game once.
Of the 5 leagues I've won, 2 have been for accident. I didn't really plan or concentrate on winning them. Last season I've been on top from the first game to the last, with many troll results even happening to my opponents.
Every Champion's League I've took part to (except one), I at least arrived to the semifinals, winning 3 trophies in total. The last one not planned at all again, and my opponent in the final was much stronger than me. I was already resigned to lose, and guess what? I won 1-4! I didn't spectate until 70' in the game and I was already 0-3.
I could never do anything to win the cup, early eliminations, troll results (I've lost 1-7 to a much weaker team in a single match!) and everything negative that could happen. Only one final that I could win and led me to the triple crown...and I lost to the penalties! I had a penalty kick specialist and he missed.
This season I wanted to concentrate on the cup and leave the league alone, not even looking for a 7th place. Guess what? I was eliminated very early in the cup and I've trouble losing games in the league! Yesterday I messed up the formation on purpose, I placed 2 GK in the game and mixed every possible position. The ball possession turned in my opponent favour, but the game still ended 1-1
At first I also thought the game wanted you to spend money on it, and it's perfectly acceptable since Nordeus lives over it. But looking at my "mostly" random successes and defeats I don't really don't know what to think of it.
If they put Top Eleven for sale, even at 9-10-15€ I consider buying it for once, but I'm never gonna spend bucks on tokens if I have no certainty that they are gonna make any difference at all.
