Subject: [DEV] International Cup

---

This may have been asked before but is there a seed list for each individual tournament or could it be possible in theory that the 4 strongest teams in a tournament get put in the same group, forcing one of them to be relegated?

I think this sokker team has done its best job so far and brought this international cup event to fruition. I congratulate them.

haha its a joke
im on DIV 2 and play against 82.2 team (from Poland of course) when im 64.3 rating...

I assume that within a few seasons this will start to balance out and then it will appear that the first league is populated by about 75% Polish teams...

No one is stopping you from having better players and playing at 85% on tier 1. Believe yourself instead of envying others.

We can overlook this since it's the first season. Hopefully, the matchmaking system will improve from next season onwards.

Believe myself ?
i did... i lost only 2-0. its amazing!!
envying others? come on man ....

you know someone with 64 rating can win 82 rating?

The better ones will move up, the weaker ones will fall down. Need take a few seasons to stabilize the tiers.

There won't be any "matchmaking system" in next seasons, it will be based on results from current system and so on. Best will go higher, worst will go lower.

They should have based the team distribution on team strength / rank (except for Div 1) but then others would start crying that they are playing in 1st league and have to play in 4th or 5th division. Whatever you do, however you do it, some people will always be angry or disappointed.

agree

Yes, I think it will be great. Everyone will have the opportunity to prove themselves. Also, playing against teams from other countries is great in itself for everyone.

Usually TGV isn't 82 rating team. He reached 82 rating only with you, becouse you are weak team, Normally he plays around 76/77%.

If build better team you can win with TGV. Why you didn't do it?

+1

It doesn't matter if TGV played against better or worse team... the rating is higher because TGV didn't make subs like in league game, where weak players came onto the pitch & lowered the average rating of the team (last league game Jefferson 58, Sosa 66)
(edited)

It does matter of course - who is the opponent. It was only one match with rating 82% of TGV team. In league (without subs) would be around 78%. The same will be in next leauge matches I guess.

No, it doesn't matter who you play against. What matters individually is skills, form, OFF% and DEF% in relation to skills + whether player was subbed. In terms of team also formation has a very big influence on overall rating.

For example Lew Pachel on the weekend played for 85 against top level Italy (rating 82), but today played for only 77 against a normal club (rating 68). According to your theory Pachel should have a lower rating against Italy than against a much weaker club.
