Positive: Top 100 were slowed down some this weekend. #100 jumped from 1620 to 1708 points. The points of the #100 holder had been jumping at a rate of roughly 96 - 98 points/weekend. So progress made on that regard for now.
Negative: My association tournament consisted of one 7* (120 - 121% average) and two 5* associations. None of these associations exploited. The 5* groups lost 1-34 and 4-31 on Sunday.
* I would have preferred an all vs. all setup for association. But auto-adjust the quality of all teams to a fair number. For example, all teams above 120% are adjusted to 120% for association tournaments (maybe 100 - 110% would be better due to risk of encouraging tanking). It's just, although the update is helping snuff out exploits, those that play at a 5* average play against a lower quality of competition, so associations is punishing those that invest time and/or cash in there squads.

We're going to go through the data from this weekend's tournament and learn more to see if further tweaks need to occur. Please keep the feedback from your groups coming.
Can't you just revert all back to TE 2017, when game was working as intended?
Keep looking at the data because the draw has screwed us this weekend.
An association fighting to retain platinum gets drawn with 2 others who are guaranteed platinum regardless of results, and, and an association pushing for a spot in the top 10 of the rankings!!??
Associations sucks! And it has done for a long, long time.
Feedback- since the "Fair Draw Update " " " we are getting +1 star association and no fair draw at all. Earlier it wasn't this bad but immediately after the update we get stronger opponents.
Having + 1 star FA group is not new ... i think the last update has nothing to do with this .
When the draw is made , there is 4 FA group and sometimes there is not enough FA group with same average to complete a group of 4 FA group , so the engine need to put a + 1 star association in the draw ...
