My pay team has always underperformed and my free team somehow got lucky and won one championship.
Well, I finally used up all these gathered points (no real money spent on this team) and built a 141-21 juggernaut. Which is now, of course, down 2-1 in the LCS to total scrubs.
My pitcher with a season ERA of 1.92 gave up 7 runs in 5 innings.
Now, I knew this team would get double promoted or triple promoted and suck like all my other teams, but I at least expected one championship and one magnificent seasion. I did have the magnificent season, ex. Shohei Ohtani hit 58 home runs in iron.
If I lose this series, I will know what I already suspect, that this game is in vast proportion, blind luck.
I don't think I will be able to cope with investing time any longer. It would be completely pointless.

I forget if it was in OOTP 22 or OOTP 23 (EDIT: or maybe OOTP 2020? my memory fails me) but I had a scrub team that languished in the lower leagues. But due to speculation over time I was able to complete some "build a team" missions or whatever they were called. They basically gave you a complete lineup of somewhat mediocre 100 rated cards. Anyhow instead of triggering the mission completions I waited till the prerequisites were all finished and triggered them all at the same time between seasons.
It was ridiculous the carnage this instantly materialized team wreaked upon the innocent in this lower league. Winning 27 to 2 wasn't actually that unexpected. I may recall incorrectly but it was like a 116 win season (should have been 162). Then we immediately were swept in the playoffs to a team of mere peasants.
