Cup draw system - open letter to Nordeus

[seanmeg]

I am season 52 , he is playing season 70. He is one of many managers who just manipulate the system and is playing at level 50. I appreciate that i am at level 48 but even being one of the top teams at my level my strongest playing % is 105% the other fifteen teams left in my ch/lgue comp are rated 194%,189.8%,189.5%, 185.9%,185.5%, 185.4%,184%,183%, the other seven rated between 145.5%- 183% and then me as said 105%. I genuinely have no chance of getting further than the last sixteen. The cup competitions are even more biased and stronger,hence this thread.

He might not be manipulating the system.

There are very very few teams up at your level, because all of you would have played for at least four years, and suffice to say that very very few people would stick with the same game for this long.

Think about how one would populate a tournament bracket. They would fill it with teams from the top level, maybe a couple from level 50, and then three more from 49, and so on, and eventually it got to your level. Fill it with a few computer-generated teams, and you have your imbalanced 128-team tournament.

The same thing is happening down here. We have a Cup tournament for levels 38-45. The lower the level, the more teams there are, which is normal.

In other words, it's an endgame problem. A lot of online games pay a lot of attention to the long-time, advanced players by making sure the endgame is still fun. Nordeus, on the other hand, has absolutely no answer to their oldest, most loyal managers.
