Would I be right in thinking that the Scheduler works on TS and Racial factors and not TR?
In which case is there much of a downside to keeping cash in the bank (other than the possibility of giving away a handicap)?
Thanks

Yes. People with moustaches, for instance, usually get scheduled against eachother. |

Keeping money in the bank can almost be seen as an advantage. This is because each handicap counts as 5 TS (actually slightly lower due to scheduling formula IIRC) and therefore if you have a higher TR than TS you are more likely to be playing down then vice versa.
This is very noticable when using my necro team, when ihave little money in the bank i end up with much harder matches due to my TS often being 10-15 ponits higher than my TR. |

today it also means less chances to have the team scheduled as handicaps decrease the game suitability. The other question worth to consider is if you really think that an handicap is 5 TS worth |

Handicaps vary, some are really powerful like mortles. Others not so much (i.e pamed coin).
And think about it, do you really want to increase the number of games vs an illegal drugs iron man wardancer?
While you may get some eaiser games, overall handicaps - espically in the hands of pros - can be really dangerous.
