They took it seriously that year though, we had a good lineup in Cincinnati with a lot of starters playing when Marsch was here.

I was at every game, look at the lineups for each game in the links you posted, they took it seriously.

You can take something serious AND be lucky.I was at every game as well.
More seriously than other years perhaps, but that is not saying much. Ultimately progressed on luck and a few timely subs. I felt that we were going to loose in each game.
A rebound against NYC saved us from PKs.
We went to PKs against PU, yet prevailed.
Red card vs. NE provided the edge for BWP.
Fortuitous pounce by Veron, genius by BWP at FCC.
Then, we ran into a club that really takes it seriously.

Luck doesnt miraculously appear.In our case, we need more than both!
Or, we have never been serious enough or lucky enough.
Rbny created their own luck by playing starters in the open cup. This should always be the standard. We should never go back to the backe and petke years where they played scrubs or decided not to travel with the team.

Others complain that overuse of starters comes back to haunt us in the playoffs. If the roster is not deep enough to field top lineups in both competitions, team may decide to sacrifice the OC for the league. Now, with this third competition, the players will be stretched further.
