[Official] 442oons Tour Challenge - FULL-TIME!

[Santa1212]

With tour events which involves matches of players versus players (PvP), from previous experience, the engine will try to match our team with another manager’s team of the closest quality with a range of 20%+/- within a timeframe about 1 minute. Eg. Say we click the ‘start’ button, our team of 100% could have waited for 30s for a matchup with a team quality of 98% when many 90% & 110% could have entered during the same minute and they could have started their match earlier with a team closer to their quality.

Therefore, getting a player loan of higher quality than your current squad would not give you a quality advantage over opponents in PvP event (unlike in KoK or PvE tour events where our team quality at the time when event starts is used as base for draws or stage engine oppositions quality, then getting a loan player after those 2 kinds of events would help).

Therefore, unlike PvE tour stage event when playing in the final 2 days could help bridging the quality gap a bit, it is far more ‘easier’ to finish the event as early as possible to avoid being drawn with significantly better players in the final days of this event - it would be harder to find close quality opposition with very few managers left, so either we get lucky with no 20%+/- managers joining in that 1 minute (a bot will be inserted as opponent) or could get very unlucky (say a 15% better manager).

Hope this helps.

Thank you for these very useful insights!

I think that the current event (442oons) will be the PvE kind of tour, or am I wrong? Which means there will be engine opponents appointed (assigned) to each manager based on his/her quality. And I am still not sure _when_ the moment of appointment (the moment of my team quality evaluation) appears: if it is the moment when the event starts (tomorrow) or if it the moment when the event has been announced (yesterday). I assume it is the moment when the event actually starts but based on previous experience I am not quite sure about that because in the past there were PvE events where my engine opponents were surprisingly lower than myself and it looked a bit like if the quality evaluation took place some time _BEFORE_ the event had actually started (while in the meantime - between the announcement and the beginning of the event - I had bought some stronger players).
