Now that season 3 of the league is going to the end, we still want to have a competitive league, even if your team will not end first. The League Cup will increase the competition for the best possible places towards the end of the season, even for the teams that are in the middle or lower part of the table. The League Cup will return each season from now on and get his own award, next to the Champion award. Still, the Champion award will be considered of a higher value, so to speak. Seeding of the teams (at end of season - see image for example)
- Above the green line: directly placed for the League Cup - Above the orange line: placed for qualifying round of the League Cup - Below the orange line: not placed for the League Cup General matches of the League Cup: - Places 1 till 5 are directly placed for the quarter finals. - Qualifying round: place 6 vs 11, 7 vs 10 and 8 vs 9. - After that, the quarterfinals are played: QF1 = Place 1 vs winner from 8-9 match QF2 = Place 2 vs winner from 7-10 match QF3 = Place 3 vs winner from 6-11 match QF4 = Place 4 vs place 5. - Semifinals: SF1 = QF1 vs QF4 SF2 = QF2 vs QF3 - Final between the winners of semifinals obviously. Suggestions are always welcome, so please leave any thoughts below and good luck to all for the end of the season! Example seeding for the League Cup (green/orange line are also displayed in the League Statistics):

An alternative is to let 9th to 14th play each other, then the 3 winners out of them play 6th, 7th and 8th, and those 3 winners + the top 5 go in to the quarter finals.
This way the higher placed teams still get an advantage, but everyone can play in the cup.

It's true that every team can then play in the cup, for that it is a good idea! However, with the current placing, all lower teams will try to stay or get above the orange line to get qualified for the league cup (same goes for staying above the green line). So, we'll get more competition then in the lower part of the league, and around place 4-7. If all teams are placed no matter what, the advantage of 9th place instead of being last place is gone, for example.

The seeding of the League Cup can be seen here: spacesports.freeforums.net/page/TLCIt will be changed if the last games played today have any difference in the standings. Also the scores and replays will be posted on this page. Good luck everyone! Btw, please note it is a best of 3 cup.

Grande Finale only best of 1? I suggest to play it best of 3 if all Cup is played best of 3 (like some playoffs)

I think its better do the final in only one match because its THE final, THE match of the competition and if we play 3 matchs this final will be less beautiful and intensive in my opinion.

Dont worry, its so intensive to play final for the 2 winning matches... Because the 2nd match is like final, it can end so teams have that feel of responsibility - and if the second team win, the 3rd match is even bigger For real

One match instead of three is more exciting
