What was the point of the 3 bracket system?

How come my Majors bracket is always dominated with Cooperstown clubs?  The way this looks is there will be no 1 thru 4 majors prizes.  Means Glu doesn't have to award quite a bit of resources and accolades.   More deceitful Glu tactics.

    What I don’t understand is in our first CVC match we (Major Club) we’re matched up with a Cooperstown. Ok fine sandbag it and lost, then got matched up with an even better Cooperstown team at a much higher rank and lost easily. Now third match against a 200 ranked team vs our 1200 rank. WTF ???

    Clubs level is irrelevant in CVC - other factors determine who you face each match

    Like what?
    if I keep losing and scoring low how do I get matched up with progressively better opponents?

    they are possibly scoring low too for a better match up

    @likenight, when a high end cvc matchup occurs, it’s because that team wanted to face you. There is a strategy to cvc for those top 5 clubs. It doesn’t mean they go balls out every time

    In 9th and only 12.5 billion points behind DFBB in my majors bracket ;-) He‘s got a little work to do though.

    I still don’t get it. 
    I rank 1100 after first match. (Intentionally lose.) 
    Matched against 500 rank. (Intentionally lose again) 
    I rank 1200 after second match. 
    Matched against 200 rank. (Intentionally lose again)
    Am I to be matched against a top 100 now?
    I mean I know I have horrible luck but come on.

    Most clubs (95%) are basically solo clubs. If your first match puts up say 200k, and you match it, then you will fall into the “dead zone”. You will be fighting rabid dogs all day. Use logic. It’s ok to lose

    You're losing wrong. If you're going to lose on purpose, then totally punt the round and score one point.

    For some reason, that strikes me as the single best description of life that I have ever seen...

    Rank also has nothing to do with who you will be matched against..... after round 1 it is all about the previous round points scored

    Glu should just be honest about the tiers. They affect the rewards you get but have nothing to do with brackets. It’s yet another thing in this game that simply isn’t as advertised. Their initial excuse for the mixed brackets was that not everyone had updated to the latest version of the game. Sure, that’s it.
