Changed the league draw format?

[gogs67]

I barely scraped promotion last season and now have a 1* team, just under 2*.
League draw today there is one 2* team, two high 4* teams and ten 5* teams in with me!!!
This is the third season in a row where the gulf between my squad and the others is huge, are the doing the draw using only active players now rather than average quality?
Last year I woulda been in with a bunch of 2 and 3 * teams with maybe one or two up in the 5* range.
Level 29 by the way.

Then sir, you're very lucky because you've managed to avoid strong leagues for seasons...
I think it has been over year when they had started to draw leagues based on average quallity of teams.
My team Celtic played ALL 5* teams league for over 10 seasons in a row. Last 2 ones where a bit weaker.

I wouldn't mind if I had a 5* team, that's the point, I don't and it used to be that I would be in with teams roughly the same as me, not any more.
So is it just down to activity now (Active players at higher level have strong teams) rather than average?

Yes, the league draw has changed the last seasons.
Now it's the third seson like this.
It's like the old times (one year before), with friends in priority and some low quality/ semi-abandoned teams.
Not the same quality teams anymore.

Maybe at a lower level there are more newly abandoned teams to make up the leagues with then.

That's the opposite of what I'm noticing though.
If you read the OP, all the teams in my league are far higher quality than mine apart from one. And it's been like this the last few seasons, whether I manage promotion or not.

my three teams have exactly the same draw style.
Did you have any friend among those teams ?
Because if you have a friend and he also have some other of those teams also friends, then he pulled you in his league.
Now, as the old time, friendship is important criterion so be careful.
