knap Posted January 26, 2019 Author Share Posted January 26, 2019 I assume you are warning fining. The next step is reduce tackling for players that get a yellow. A SUS tactic tends to work well after a yellow, and sometimes it is just a bad run of reds. I often get a red in EC Final and other times not even a yellow.

Hooligan Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 (edited) Hi knap, the 104 point Is for mid and Underdogs teams, the 110 for top teams right? The two latest tactics Edited January 26, 2019 by Hooligan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
knap Posted January 26, 2019 Author Share Posted January 26, 2019 Nothing decided. I posted the tactic with IWs on Discord and somebody won the leagues with PSG Sampdoria and Cardiff. There is a high scoring Salah tactic and the latest was P110 using WMs. No underdog testing with these tactics. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

knap Posted January 27, 2019 Author Share Posted January 27, 2019 TIME is probably slightly less, not sure it will hane a great effect on injuries. Injuries are good for rotation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
knap Posted January 27, 2019 Author Share Posted January 27, 2019 Copied from Optimal Primal in TIME Thread if you want to game manage intensity The big plus of my CTRL is that I turn pressing off (pressing is wonderful, but it's only as good as the weakest link, and after 60-70 minutes there are a lot of tired weak links. Check your team - if anyone has a work rate less than 10 they're probably guilty of letting the side down too, those with low stamina/natural fitness need a firm eye kept on them too) but I still have counter on with full backs slightly more defensive - means I often score a goal (or two) on the counter as the AI tries to cheese it's way back into the game.

This is 4123 and 4231 my preferred set for home and away, this showed me bit better results with small teams, and tff removed 4123 anyway. I do play instant result as well so it could work bit different for You. Using this with total underdog like Fortuna Dusseldorf I went for standard mentality, but against teams 14-18 I was using attacking home or away. Testing it with mid team like Newcastle I go for attacking mentality vs teams 10-18 home or away. If used with proper strong team I would only go for standard mentality against teams 1-4 home and away. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knaps posted a link for you above, just remember that a SUS based on a 4-2-4 won't - by the very definition of it being an attacking formation - be the best in the business at stopping late goals. It'll do a job so if you're happy with it then all good, just remember there are better options to base an SUS on. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamieac Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 (edited) Only just noticing that the one striker has a lot more PI's than the other in the new tactics. Is this intentional?? and if so do they require different types of players in each position? The wingers and FB also have slightly different PI but to a lesser extent.

knap Posted February 1, 2019 Author Share Posted February 1, 2019 No need for different players, I just find that not being exactly the same helps in adding a little bit of variety. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
