    The current cup format is HELL for token buyers, especially on older servers where they get chucked in a cup to play non-token buyers a few levels above themselves that can buy 5* players off the transfer market to blow you out the water with not much of an investment in tokens but have the quality because they are 3 levels above you.

    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.

    +1!

    It´s true, and I can only speak for myself and from own experience. Due the old cupformat the lvl/players (3* - 7*) were quite shuffled but now only the "best/greatest" from every lvl stand a chance to advance/compete, the rest gets eliminated in the KO-stage.

    The League & CL are different. The top 3 are mostly made of 5*-6/7* teams and the rest are 4/3* or abandoned.
