How do I know I have been blackballed? I had a strong start: something like 20 wins, 2 losses, 2 draws. I was on top of the league by 8 points and making my way through the cups.

Then everything changed overnight. I am winless in six official games: 2 losses, 4 draws. I squandered the league lead and got knocked out of both cups. I lose to the teams whom I used to beat and whom I outclass. I just barely tied the team in the last place, which I outclass by 8 points. The guy who knocked me out of the cup plays in my league and is in the 10th place; I had beat him 3:0 on his ground in the league play before my so called cold streak began.

My quality is up, my team is optimized, I know more than ever knew about formation and orders. I give top win bonus, I won my last three friendlies 5-0, 17-0 and 6-0. 17:0, people! The most ever. But in competition play, clearly Nordeus has decided that I am going to lose. You know how it goes: my posession and passing numbers are where they should be, but my players grab red cards or get injured, or just get otherwise trolled.

Why?

I have only one explanation: I stopped spending tokens on players. Don't need to, don't want to.

They went Pavlovian on me. They want to see if I push the right button in response to the electric shock (or whatever Mr. Pavlov did to the dogs). They want to see me go on a buying spree and spend down some tokens. Somehow, in the end it's always about the tokens.

Tell me I am paranoid. Or tell me if you can see the correlation between your own cold streaks and reduced token spending.

I don't want any new players. Can I just rename someone or reschedule some matches?
Not gonna say u are paranoid, but I think the game engine change from time to time, I have I good team and usually dominate my matches, but talking about this season I lost two games and draw two so far, one particular day I lost 2-0 and had a draw in the same day and I couldn't do much my tatics and tricks didn't work and was against a weak formation on defense 3w-1-4-2 so I stop and think next day I have to do something different more carefully to make sure my team morale and form doesn't go down, because I believe the worse thing its make a good team perform well when the form its bad, so IMO try to fix where you see a problem.
