Next league opponent: is this real?

[Niddhoeggr]

It's getting even worse and worse.

Fifth place (=me) versus 8th place opponent. Same quality (106%), he is playing with a 3W-5-2 formation. Will try to counter this with a 451V.

It was a draw.

Cup game afterwards was a 1:1 and so my opponent won after the aggregated score of 4:3. Byebye, Cup (again^^).

Today was as well frustrating because I got another defeat in the league against an opponent with + ~8% more quality. I wouldn't say that this is a lot but I cant win against opponents who are slightly better or even slightly worse or equal in quality. I did not have this problem the two seasons before. Overall the statistics are quite balanced but my team can't score.

After the two days my team went down to the 8th rank in league and I'm again seriously considering to tank. This season is by now a disaster and I don't think I can at the end of the season take over at least the fourth place to get into the CL (I don't think as well to make it through winning the CL this seson although I am still in the competition).



It is quite risky to try to tank the season at this moment because I really don't know whether I can loose enough games to climb down the ladder. #14 in the league is also the one who tanks. #13 has only 50% quality (abandoned).

What do you think? Should I stick to my plan and take it as it is or should I consider/try to tank?

Thanks again in advance and best,
Nidd
