Difficulty scaling in Squad Battles is pathetic

I play SB on Superstar difficulty with my 86 OVR team and this is the first season I am playing for rewards. I smashed the 89 Subban team 10-1 and near maxed out opponents in the first and second batch.
Issues started when I reached the Elite ranks. I think the GM took my team to celebrate in an all you can eat buffet because the amount of fatman lag IN THIS OFFLINE MODE is B A F F L I N G.
So now even against 73 OVR opponent my team feels like they’re all injured from the start, have difficulty picking up the passes, loose pucks on L2 more and miss the puck on one-timers (if the pass even goes off or reaches them).
I am still usually reaching over 2000 points per match, but this way of ”adding difficulty” is trash.
Even if you can’t give players more challenge, DO NOT sabotage their experience. That is a big flip of a finger to the player and basically blames the player in a way of ”you play too well for us to challenge you, here let me punish you by taking the control away from you”
It is your responsibility to offer the player more challenge. It is not the players responsibility to play worse.
