My issue was similar. Was in a lower league since I just started. A lot of bots, so I was Winning enough for Play Offs. Got bounced 2nd Round by a 1 Point Loss in an epic battle. But I was BELOW Promotion Line, which is what I wanted... my Stadium is full so money is coming in. I wanted to sit there and Train Players for a bit while earning and expanding.

But we didn't have enough players, so that League folds... now I'm in a much tougher League and since I'm not a Top Team my money takes a hit.

I was content, man. I was good slumming it while I learn and develop my Roster. LOL!

It seems that your team moved laterally to new leagues of the same division because it is no longer "fresh."
I'm not sure whether you know that the news page has information about Team consolidation.

I insist that the consolidation leagues are not well explained. It was made in its day but new users do not know what it is and end up suffering the consequences that often end in abandonment and damage to the game.
I understand that there are other priorities but including this in the rules should also be a priority, from my point of view, in addition to requiring very little effort and zero cost in programming, just writing a text and putting it in the rules.

A small change that I think would help a lot in this matter:

Split the last split in half with active users in the country.

(Ex from my country: Division III)

Those relegated from division II would be replaced only by teams from III.1 to III.8 (half of the division).
The relegated/bots from leagues III.1 to III.8 would be replaced by teams from III.9 to III.16 (the second half of the division).

Both following the same current criteria. No change.


In practice, it would be similar to creating a league for new users, who do not pay a minimum salary, to get acquainted with the game while playing matches only against peers and bots.

Consequently, it would improve the level of the last division with active users and,
mainly
would solve the problem raised here in this thread! =)

I see a new team (209242) that was created on 2025/7/7 and got promoted just by previous team’s record (1st in the conference). /league/7832/overview.aspx?season=68
This is clearly unreasonable.
I suggest that, for example after the playoffs, new teams should not replace computer teams that made it to the playoffs.
This can help reduce cases where teams that shouldn’t be promoted end up getting promoted.
