I'm playing a team in the cup next week who has six 20k salary players and my highest salary player is 7k and my others are 3k and 4k. I should have the 2nd highest enthusiasm possible when the game starts and I am going to use crunch time. Is there a chance for me to win or am I getting my hopes up for nothing? I have never used crunch time with an enthusiasm this high and I'm just hoping I can pull out a miracle.

Unless he doesn't play his best players or he picks up some injuries, I don't see you winning that game.

Miracles are possible, but I'd say it's a waste to spend your enthousiasm on that game. His bench players are in good shape too and as good as your starters, so with his own 20k+ starters as backups he'll still have a better team. It's of course possible that he underestimates you and plays a weak team to preserve gameshape (his starters have 60+ minutes), and you have home court advantage and high enthousiasm... if you don't need your enthousiasm the coming 2 weeks you could try.

That's what I'm hoping for. I think he'll TIE against me and I'll use Crunch Time and hopefully a miracle can occur. Lol I'm trying my best to pull this one out.

I'm experimenting with TIE/crunch this week, too. I'm in the same situation with my Cup game, and trying to TIE league games (and still win).

My question is: Once your enthusiasm is up after TIE (I'm at "encouraged" now) does TIE take your game performance back to normal ("ready") or lower than that?

I don't know the precize effect, but if you're at 6 ENT playing TIE would probaby end up in underperforming vs playing normal at 5 ENT. You need to gain more ENT before you reach that point.

Enthusiasm can be a major factor, check my game few seasons ago (68613887)

I think he had 2-3 times larger salary maybe 130k vs 350-500k

I had very high enthusiasm and game shape, while he crunched the game before, probably had 2-3 enth.

I won, despite his salaries and CT versus my TIE. Also, he guessed GDP
