One of Blackwolves' top players injured in a league game. Dont know if its a long term or just in-game injury

Both just in-game injuries. Looks like I will have to do it the hard way

Ok. A matchup for next round for a winner of Blackwolves vs Pszczyna Team is known.
Vottem Cowboys. They put up extremely impressive ratings today for neutral site game. Ranked 5 in the world, with 5NT players on the roster and 960k salary. I will be able to tell more after today's game (want to see ratings on neutral site) but this draw does look incredibly tough. Oh well, if you want to be the best you have to beat the best

So finally I can write something here without fear of giving away valuable information. Hoped to pick something up here, but you didn't drop any real clues

Should be a close match. I was very unsure which tactic to use. Even though my team is capable of running multiple offenses, look inside is still broken and my team is tailored to exploit that. So I went for that, even though you probably picked that for GDP. I think it was still the best choice, as long as you didn't also pack the 2-3 Zone. I myself didn't dare to use the GDP this time. Wasn't really sure which tactic you would pick. You probably picked look inside for the same reasons i just mentioned, but I didn't want the outcome to hinge on a gamble.

Unfortunately it's already late here so I can't watch the game live. If you win, I'll wish you the best of luck against Vottem Cowboys!

Tough loss there damian. Clearly 2 of the best teams in the world, play 20 times and the split might be pretty close to 50/50.

Frankly, I dont know what to do now. This season has been a disaster. Do I try again next one? Do I blow my team up and focus on training? How the hell did I lose this game in the first place since team ratings indicate I had an advantage and my players are multiskilled so shouldnt have problem with individual matchups?

Anyway, great job Blackwolves. Terrible luck in the draw here. It might have been a semifinal matchup easily.....

Never trust the ratings and I'm sure he has multi skilled players too. Probably close to a coin flip.

I would give it one more kick, you've built such a solid team. How much $$$ are you losing each week?

I would be able to keep the team intact if I win a championship, get to BBB, and dont drop out of the cup early. Just not sure there is much more I can do to get better results and those have been dissapointing.

Thanks! Too bad we had to meet this early. There are definitly worse teams still in the tournament.

Regarding the ratings: you've got a combined advantage of 0,66 lvls. That's about one percent and yes my players are multiskilled too. If you're interested I can send you some skills. The coin toss comparison is propably true, with a tiny advantage for me due to slightly better shape this time around.

Nah, I am fine. Yeah. Coin toss is a good description. It just sucks to lose one. Bad shape of my bigs was disadvantage but still thought I might pull it off.

Well, you now have to win the entire thing so I can proclaim myself as 2nd best in the world :D

I'll try my best. I think I've got decent chances of making it to the finals, since the previous two winners are on the other side of the bracket. But there are no weak teams lefts, so I'll probably need some more coin tosses in my favor
