Agree with Monkey. But it also can stay without any changes. This game is so good so far, that there is no need for a lot of changes.

It will always be "unfair" for some teams not making the Playoffs because of the strength of their division... In a Supercup system, there's nothing you can do about it whatever the number of teams or we should go with the 768 teams going in KO according to their seeds... That wouldn't be feasible, nor fun...

One way would be to qualify the 48 division winners no matter of their record. However, it's not possible because of the coming growth of teams and division when 3.X will be implemented...

So, I would go with the current system. You have to be lucky in the drawing... But if not, maybe you'll be luckier the year after...

And if a team seems better than you and that you're not gonna make the Playoff, you could always use your MOTY... Yep, you would be defenseless in Playoffs with no chance to win it all but you would be in...

The only thing i don´t like is that you have to drive up the scoreboard, but thats just my problem with sportsmanship

If someone has a difficult group there is one and only good solution - beat everyone and you're in play-off phase.

If you look at this seasons schedule there's an available extra day for the Supercup on 16th of February. That's why I thought an extra round is possible. If you think that's a good sollution or not is another matter. But to me it looks like it's possible to implement.

Sure it's possible but even with 16 more spots or 32 15-1 or 14-2 will be out when others will be in...

Yeah, good for you that you are one of the founding teams with an advantage. Not so lucky for the 350 teams that started this game after you..

You can close the gap to the "founding teams" in 1-2 seasons. When RZA has 1000 Managers you will be happy, that you was one of the fist 300 teams.

All knights of RZA have an advantage cause they are here from the beginning and thats ok cause they go from the starting problems till now.

A Cup never is "fair" look at the RL the bigger teams allways beat out the smaller ones.

I am 14-1 in the Cup and i will not make it to the next Round cause i didn´t know that winning isn´t the only thing, points are as important, i let my Youngguys get exp there. So what its a game next year they will learn what my Team is all about or i will get notice that i have to learn a lot

So np with the system go as it is.

I was one of the teams here from the start and I didn't make it into the playoffs for the cup last season. It's a bit of pot luck depending on what division you're in because 1 loss and it's hard to make it through. Not sure what the best option is, to keep going like this or have a straight knockout. If it's changed then problems still exist where some teams will only get 1 or 2 matches and the biggest teams will make it through to the later rounds
