Nordeus Cup

[cracicot]

I like playing teams a few levels above. Yes I had to play a few better teams, but it's my one big challenge this season and the most fun part of the game - tense, nerve-wracking, exciting. Beating a Level 4 who had world class players, watched both games and brought a friend to support him was the highlight!

Edit: I'm in the final! Probably against a Level 5 team who are awesome, but happy to be there regardless

Good to see someone actually gets excited for games. Glad someone gets happy about playing Tommy token.

After almost 4 seasons, I dont get excited anymore. Its more of a "Do I really give a ****" attitude now. At this point, I look at the cup bracket and laugh. I need to spend tokens to actually have a chance to compete. I dont like to count on the luck factor of the NGE, because I just lost 2 league games in a row with literal last min goals against the 2nd and 3rd place teams. out of 22 games I have now lost 3, so they come at a bad time. Still in first by one point, but someone at Nordeus flipped a switch, if you know what I mean.

In other words, the honeymoon is over and now Im looking for some fun on the side.

If I didn't get excited about games - or even if that seems a bit strong, if I got to 'I don't give a ****' - I'd probably just stop playing. That's kind of my point about the cup, it has kept me playing and trying to improve my team as I'm bossing the league and the best left in the CL

I'm low level, so I expect it will get harder, and if I choose not to buy more tokens then my targets might change - I could become Arsenal and count a top 4 place as a 'trophy'! And that's fine. I came to this game because it was a challenge to play against other players, with different budgets to play with and because I thought maybe I can't win everything. Better than FM where I expect to win everything, every season. But it seems some people bring that attitude on here

Frankly, I will give lvl 5 a kick without buying tokens and see what happens. I will most likely be top 4 but if I have no chance at 1st, i will tank the season and stay another round in lvl 5. I am in no rush. I made a vow to not spend one more dime on this game and I wont. I will play for free and let bots win and play hard vs real managers just to fack with them. It might become more fun to be a spoiler when you cant win.

With all the frustration caused by Tommy token and NGE, I will eventually fade away into the real world and pay attention to the new addition to my family coming next year. At which point, I will wish you all well and.....nah, i will just quit and never say fack again.

Really though, when I see Nordeus make some changes or actually give a ****, I might be persuaded to "donate" in the future, but at this point, its really not worth it: the cup, the NGE, injuries, Tommy token, auctions....it just looks bleak....
