Balance of leagues

I really love this game and it has so many positives. One problem though is only having one team promoting ruins any competition if you have an overpowered team in your league.

I lost today to a team by about 250 runs on a green pitch and had a look at their stats for year. About half of their games this year were either similar scorelines or 10 wicket wins.

Fortunately I love the stats and building stats etc.

Yeah, it's a tricky one. The issue is, if we were to allow more than one team to promote out of a league, we would need a flatter league structure to give those extra teams leagues to promote into. At the moment, each division has twice as many leagues as the one above it, to allow 1 team to promote for every 2 demoting. This gives us 1 league in division 1, 2 in division 2, 4, 8 and so on. A flatter structure would require more divisions, and teams might need to start in division 6/7/8 instead of 4. That's a long way to climb.

At the end of the day, FTP is a long-term game; those of us who have been around since nearly the start have played for almost 20 years! Be patient, keep working on your squad and tactics, and your time will come. Glad you're enjoying the game so far!

Thanks for your comment and explaining the league. My comment was more frustration at leaking 490 runs on a green pitch lol.

Totally understandable mate, we've all been there!
