On newer servers I've noticed the cups are going to be dominated by the heaviest T-Buyers across the entire server so even for mediocre T-Buyers/T-Farmers its very difficult.
I'm on a older server but not at the top of it by any means and I've had 3 cup titles on the end of the old cup format, and even that was because I power trained my players to compete with players 2/3 levels above me in the Semi's/Final. If the old cup format was still around it would be likely I would be playing my friend team in the final every season from now on. It took me a year to rise up through the levels to become major contenders for winning the cup and now that I got there... Nordeus change the format.
I'm pleased I power trained my players and won the cup 3 times when I did because it won't be anytime soon I will get anywhere near winning the cup under its current format.
