I kind of like the idea of having the top 80 teams (DI and DII) seeded untill the round of 512 or 256. That way DIV or DV teams could still have a chance, but the big boys don't kill each other off, to make sure the cup is open to all, but still competitive. Of course, the way it is now is fine too.

But avoid that teams yet bot at the moment of the draw play with other teams yet bots i think is really simple to realise

That's not the problem. The real importance of cup is in enthusiasm management. So tiers would be great. And of course all human teams should play before hundreds of bots are allowed to play - the way how you fill new level of division is knocking some teams of the cup even before the first round, that's bizarre at least.

No, making unexpected runs to glory and winning championships is what the Cup is all about. Regular season is just for enthusiasm management.

In other words: People (want to) do different things.

And it's tough to explain to a new user why their team didn't make the tournament historically.


this is true. i still don't understand why i didn't play the cup in season3 (i play since season2)

Your team was in last place in what was at the time the lowest division in your country, so your team wasn't good enough to qualify.
