Qualification Match Opponents

[ausonny]

SI, here I come.

That's right, I get the Iowa Enforcers.

Damnit.

[Havok]

El marajá in the West Fargo Stags divison IV.35

I have a shot to win, but with my horrible TS it will be tough....

[DukeRulesMAB]

Guess what....want it or not, I'm in Division IV. I get a walkover. I'm so dead. :(


Welcome Frankfort United to IV.53

If you were to also not field a team would the home team get the win? (if you are really looking to not promote....)

[DukeRulesMAB]

Nah, I'm not that much of a wimp. I'll take my medicine. :)

[NAIWF]

Well, I'm GLAD I didn't win today. Want to know why?

My opponent would have been Sweden Heights. Yep, I'd have been trying to get into DK's series, where I'd promptly have gone 0-13-1 or so and been right back in D5 the following year.

All I have to do is hope he takes care of business, because I can't deal with a team capable of putting up an 80+

EDIT: I think the guy's gonna take a dive in the qualifier since he put up a 46 and a 45 in his prior 2 league games.

Looks like I'm gonna be spending next season taking a huge dive. There's no reason for me to try and beat an 80+, a 70+, and another mid 60 squad for the next half dozen seasons.

[robbgmaier]

I've got the Legia Vortex of V.209. They aren't hopeless, but one hopes I can manage, it would be quite a cruel thing for me to have gotten this far and lose to a much weaker team at my house.

[Masked]

I've got Ring of Fire of V.56

Ring of Fire
Player rating and Team formation
Midfield: passable
Right Side Defence: formidable
Central Defence: outstanding
Left Side Defence: magnificent
Right Side Attack: excellent
Central Attack: excellent
Left Side Attack: inadequate


Damn, that is an NSI above 70. I have never broken 70.

[Fonzie]

The beloved Gasmasters will be up against Loose RS of V.157. They've been getting NSI's in the low 50's, and I've been scoring in the high 50's and low 60's. My TS is in the crapper though, after a couple important MOTS's needed just to get to a qualifier, so if he/she/it's been PICing a lot I may be going down. Should be fun either way.

[TredWel]

An all Pennsylvania qualifier is coming up, as I get to take on the Nittany Lions.

Nittany Lions
Player rating and Team formation
Midfield: inadequate
Right Side Defence: solid
Central Defence: formidable
Left Side Defence: formidable
Right Side Attack: passable
Central Attack: passable
Left Side Attack: inadequate

Their best rating is a 64, which is what I've been getting lately while PIC'ing. I don't want to get too cocky, but it looks as though I've got a good shot to stay around in IV.22.

Dude, this isn't good news. I knew this Ring of Fire meant something. They are the winner of Qwikshot's league... A crazy league if you ever get demoted there... Good luck!

[FrogMan]

I play the mighty, mighty Lambaa, a once upon a time human controlled team which is now a mighty, mighty bot team...

Here the ratings for their last league game...

Lambaa
Player rating and Team formation
Midfield: disastrous
Right Side Defence: inadequate
Central Defence: solid
Left Side Defence: solid
Right Side Attack: poor
Central Attack: weak
Left Side Attack: weak


As daedalus said on IRC tonight, if I ever lose this match, I fully deserve to be demoted... Hell, I might consider pushing the godd 'ol reset button on my team is all crap comes on me, especially considering I'll be MOTSing them with at least a content TS...

El marajá should be an easy win for you.

I hope your right Lever... but he just pic'ed his last game because it was a walkover so i know he has good TS. He also just spent 400k on a midfielder tonight, he's at home and i have Furious TS.

So it won't be easy... i'll probally only get a inadequate midfield with that terrible TS.

[vex]

I'm not liking my draw, not one bit:


I will be playing AHLY of V.238 who puts up good ratings, but great stars, hopefully the stars truely are evil.



AHLY
Player rating and Team formation
Midfield: passable
Right Side Defence: outstanding
Central Defence: formidable
Left Side Defence: excellent
Right Side Attack: solid
Central Attack: solid
Left Side Attack: weak



And here's a prediction of mine next week:



NE Oklahoma Sidekicks
Player rating and Team formation
Midfield: outstanding
Right Side Defence: inadequate
Central Defence: passable
Left Side Defence: excellent
Right Side Attack: outstanding
Central Attack: excellent
Left Side Attack: formidable



Of course this is only a rough estimate as I haven't played a meaningful match in 2 weeks. And also things will obviously change once I set up my gameplan.

[Celeval]

So how do I tell if the qual match I'm playing is against a bot team?

His last ratings:
Nevada Gurus (229787)
Player rating and Team formation
Midfield: wretched
Right Side Defence: inadequate
Central Defence: passable
Left Side Defence: inadequate
Right Side Attack: wretched
Central Attack: wretched
Left Side Attack: wretched

My last ratings:
ATLxpress
Player rating and Team formation
Midfield: wretched
Right Side Defence: inadequate
Central Defence: inadequate
Left Side Defence: weak
Right Side Attack: passable
Central Attack: passable
Left Side Attack: excellent


That was PIC'd, I'll be MOTSing and currently have a TS of composed.

[Poli]

Considering that's pretty horrid ratings, I'd think you might have a good chance. Apoc has a little tool out there called hattrick match calculator. Again, I don't have the link, but I found it on a google search. You can input this type of stuff and see for yourself how you might do.

See if there's an owner name in the team info box...

FM

[FrogMan]

dola, and the Gurus are definitely a bot team. Scout his last few games and this is the lineup he'll use against you next week. Match your strenght to his weaknesses and you should be fine...

Good luck!

FM

[Poli]

By the name, I'd say they're probably a bot. Not many people name their team after their state.

[Celeval]

Thanks muchly. :)

[KevinNU7]

So I draw the 5th place finisher in the 3rd toughest D.IV league. I put up and NSI that would make me competitive with their 8th place finisher and that is about it.

[lytic]

Your lucky it isn't IV.19

Better than auto-promoting in.
