Ah, next time we should play at least a Diamond first or something. Sorry for changing our line-up so drastically, but when you think the competition is going to be Diamond-Mid Masters then you play that kind of line-up. Playing a top 8 Masters first just seems kind of against the point of a friendly (in this sense anyway).
I did also find an issue with the Captain calling one of our players BM (he was, but he apologized) and then proceeding to BM him (ironic imo).
I know that is coming from a 'sore-loser' point of view, but that is how I feel and it is probably how I'll feel tomorrow. More than happy to play you guys again soon, hopefully after we do some major improvements. I'd like to see our boys play more than one of your players next time.

I think the reality is that it can be really hard to balance any sort of competition that involves masters players. There is just such a great variety in masters players starting from the fresh out of Diamonds like myself to the professional players who only just missed out on GM.
Aside from a change in format not much can be done.

You should probably speak to your captain about getting a game.
As for Flamey, his apology was half arsed for how rude he was to Danny. I gave him a chance to apologize properly for his behavior in our game but he genuinely believed he'd done nothing wrong. I have no problem with the rest of FvR, but if flamey wants to be a jerk then he can be expected to be treated in kind.
It's also pretty petty that you (as the team's captain) would stoop to that level, to be bad manner and then to say that 'it was alright and he deserved it because he did it to us'. I thought that a mature person would have accepted that, and done their 1-1-1 and won gracefully.
I'm not saying you didn't have the right to do so, I mean he was bad manner. I just thought being the bigger man was definitely more important, especially when saying that manner was so important (at the start of that same game).

Tbh I thought danny was high diamond low masters level, he fluctuates skill level so much because of his activity so I sent him out not knowing he's high masters. Should definitely make it diamonds only for the first couple of games next clan war.
