Sooo

what do you guys do when you need your guys for a cup game but you also want your guys to save minutes for game shape for league games?

Got a hard team already.

Bunghole,

If you need the money go all out on the cup game for the 50k. also if you can afford an L in the league. I had to throw my cup game to prioritize the league.

Sadly my cup run comes to an end, I was focusing the cup so far this year as I was so far behind everyone else quality wise.

I believe if I were focusing cup and league I would try to minimum split the league games every week to get the cup wins, though it really just depends on if you can win the particular matchup.

It's a tough balance. Because I'm so focused on training minutes and maintaining game shape, I usually throw in the towel at the first close matchup. Unless I feel like I'm in a position where throwing a league game makes sense. It is quite fun to make a deep cup run though.
