Season 128 - Are you ready?

[Der_Ryan_M]

I realised abit late that we have to keep 1 star players. And when i did realise, i did not know i could use their SA and multi position players to keep quality low so they were gaining almost as much as they were losing in rating every season. So for now, till my players quality get lower, i will have to endure selling and buying more players for now. Yes it is stressful and i often buy very weak players 1st and waste tokens buying replacements later so I definitely spend more than 60 tokens per season on average.

Frankly i still track the associations i left previously. One got demoted after last season and the other looks likely to get demoted after this season. They both have alot of inactive players with training maintained at very low percentages. So I definitely made the right choice in leaving. I agree that i might be able to stay or join a platinum association but from what i see, it takes an association with an average of at least 115 from week 1 to retain their platinum division status. Not easy. Also must have well trained and active members.

What do you mean by average of 115? There are many associations with 90-100% average and they are doing fine. The most important things are activity and also that the members are fairly close to each other in terms of quality to avoid bad draws and being vulnerable to people who "manipulate", so put their bench in and the high guys get the low opponents.
This weekend for example we were very unlucky with the draw, as opponents were approaching draw with bench on the field. But it is our own fault, one member is 140%, I am 129% and another is 117% and all others are around 100%, it's too big of a margin. The 100% guys had the toughest opponents and all lost their matches, so all it takes is one of us slipping in his "easy" matchup and he did...
