Fairness of Championship? Options

[benighted]

Hi folks
I would like to talk about something weird. The issue is as follows:
Imagine you are making your squad selections before each of Championship game. You spy your rival's scheme in their previous matches to eventually choose the formation & strategy that you think is best for your result. It doesn't to be having any question if your rival does the same. But if they don't submit any selcetion for that match? In Cup matches, they will lose 0-3 against you. However in Championship fixtures, if they don't do that, they will still play with the formation 4-4-2 Mixed 50%.

The problem here is you chose a formation to get the best out of your team against your rival's formation that you guess. But if they don't submit any selection, it means your selection could go wrong against that "4-4-2 Mixed 50%". Eventually, you could draw or even lose. That means those who don't submit their team selections before Champ matches gain benefits whereas those do good things and are well-prepared gain DISADVANTAGEs. So what is the FAIRNESS in this Championship rule?

Anyone can prove me wrong?

In your profile you can check your next Championship game. There you can see, if the opponent has submitted his scheme or not.
Of course, he can submit some minutes before the game starts, that is hard to know.

Kind regards

Am I right to interperet your answer as - you have to guess as to what tactics to use - because unlike normal games failure to select team etc doesnt incure forfeit of match in a championship game, this means then that selecting your tactics to beat an oposition is potentioally futile.

No, I just say, that if you see, that your opponent hasn't submit, you will know, that he will play 4-4-2 50% mixed normal.

But only if you wait until the very last second before submitting your own tactics, which is a bit irritating don't you think?

@faceman: how can I know whether my rival chose his formation or not?
And even if I can know that, it's still inappropriate. I chose to play Champ games at 23h (local time) and eventually I played these games at 1a.m. I just can't wait till 1a.m or so to know whether my rival chooses formation or not because I must sleep for my health ( I bet many people are also in the same situation with me). So now you can see the wrong side of this rule, can't you ?
