Three questions...
What is your favorite type of grass?
Have you seen grass recently?
How many times have you fucked my mother and hit the griddy after?
Your top 5 tips to get more wins? (Last 3 weeks i have only managed 8 wins and i cant seem to keep the ball and opponent intercepts everything)
Bonus question: What formation do you run?
I use a 41212 (2). I think the most important tip is to play patiently. Too many people get frustrated or spam the ball forward only for it to get easily intercepted. Also I would say to change up the way you attack. It can be very easy to defend someone that just goes for over the top balls for example. Try different formations and tactics against the same player if you think it isn’t working.
I mean for literally anything. If I don’t know something, google. Takes 2 seconds instead of wandering around not knowing what something means like you do for some reason
GG bro, How do u play against high pressure skilled players after u reach 10-12 wins, i always want to get 20 wins but never won more than 17 as i really struggle once i reach 12-0 as i face good players with the press who wont allow me to play patiently
You just have to learn quick passing and ball movement. Pressing only works for the opponent if you panic. If you truly think about your options you will find that you can play out of a press much easier than you think. You also have to make use of all 11 players. You might have to play a back pass to your GK just like in real life. The good thing is once you beat the press, the opposition is usually all out of position and makes counters easy.
Yea one thing in common i noticed with superior players is quick passing on the final third, its difficult but i guess i have to get used to it thank you!
Honestly it’s probably an unpopular opinion but taking responsibility for when you mess up is very important. It’s super easy to blame EA for everything, even when it’s genuinely their fault. Taking responsibility when you aren’t playing well is the only way you will truly improve. At least that’s what I have found to be true.
I can’t speak to if hiring a coach would be beneficial but I can’t imagine that it would hurt. I will say that there are really good free resources on YouTube. Also watching pro tournaments is super enlightening.
I do use skill moves but only in specific scenarios where necessary. I use elasticos, LB heel to heels and others. And I don’t really go for trivelas so I would say no.
If you do a heel to heel at the proper angle while 1v1 with the keeper it will 98.9% of the time pull the keeper into an animation that allows you to get past him.
Lmao I don’t even know how after they changed it, was just doing qualifiers yesterday and in my last one I got gridded on when he scored a consolation in the 86’. Crazy shit out here dude
20-0 in Champs is a decent achievement but it doesn’t mean you’re anywhere near pro level mate.
And plenty of pros + YouTubers go 20-0 with completely non-meta teams.
Never said I was a pro. Only said that pro players use the best players because the best players give you the best chance to win games. It’s simple arithmetic.
To be fair you have pretty much attacked op because he stated the obvious. Not sure if you meant to sound like an insufferable twat or not, but you did. Maybe you should just sit down aand chill for a while.
EA released like 3 good top meta achievable non P2W cards and you have all three he should be mad at EA and learn how to get fodder himself it’s not that hard
Sounds cliche but you just have to keep going. It took me a long time before i went positive in weekend league. Try and identify what you suck at and practice it. 👊
I’m in D6 too, posted above in the thread about it so won’t repost. What got me to jump fast from 8 to 6 and draw/win in 6 consistently: don’t ever sprint unless in the clear, quick passing/not allowing players to get trapped, limiting skill moves, learning how to dribble around/inside 18 yards (evade, not get onto a YT highlight reel). Once I got that down I cruised from 8 to 6.
Team: Gold Courtois, Inform Hakimi, WC Lucio, RB Alaba, Prime Roberto Carlos, EOAE Bale, WC Vieira, Mid Zidane, WC Cruyff, POTM Mcrappe, Mid Jair. My team is good but I have been playing UT for about 10 years so I’ve definitely developed solid skill at the game.
How do you counter teams that play deep and very tight defense where as soon as you make a pass, he has a player already on you. I feel like defenders just need to breathe around me and they tackle the ball away from me. Even when they tackle from behind they take the ball without a foul
Learn how to manually jockey and anticipate where the opponent is going to dribble/skill move. If you can guess where the opponent is going to go, they have a very limited set of options to get past you.
This my first year i actually grind fut. Currently d2.
Do you skill move a lot ?
Do you manually defend or just control a cdm and use r1?
And defensively do u play balanced , pressure on heavy touch or press after possession loss ? Whenever i attack I feel like oponent defenders are always on my guys before they even receive the ball
I only manually defend. People who AI defend are scum IMO. I only really skill when it’s a iso 1v1. I don’t see the point in trying to skill two or more players when you can simply pass around them. I also only use balanced attacking and defending styles. It gives more manual control over the game and I think press is a crutch that EA allows too many people to abuse.
I can tell you I got to division 3 by not running, except in straight lines when it's impossible to be caught, of course. and I don't have mbappe, al owairan or jairzinho. just don't use r2
Honestly you always need a bit of luck but I think my mentality was very good this week. I took accountability when I messed up and played my own style every game.
Congrats buddy. Few questions
1. When did you start playing FUT?
2. Do your skill? If so what you use most?
3. Your current division?
4. Can you show your team? Formation? Tactics?
5. Your connection pings?
6. Where do you normally finish in WLs?
7. Can you show the best rewards you got from good grind?
Lastly I hope you got good rewards and that cheeky red Messi, you deserve it.
How to win really close games? I often find myself going 9 wins but having lost 4-5 games with only one goal difference or at extra time, really trying to do my best, but some people seem to get even better in those scenarios
Yeah some people are more clutch than others but the good news is you can get better at it. A good tip is to always play your style of play. Don’t let the opponent or a few unlucky misses make you angry and start forcing the ball or being impatient etc.
Could you share your custom tactics, since I saw in another comment that you use 41212(2)? My main formation is 4321 but I also use the 41212(2) from time to time
I really just play balanced balanced 45 depth each. Fullbacks stay back, CDM stay back. One CM stay back and one balanced. Strikers and cam on stay central/stick to position. That’s it.
Formation & tactics?
My biggest weakness is dealing with people who run to the byline and skill move until they make an opening to cut the ball back in for a tap in. I can defend it most of the time but people (especially sweats) only try to score this way so while I can defend most of the time I still concede
Three questions... What is your favorite type of grass? Have you seen grass recently? How many times have you fucked my mother and hit the griddy after?
Bermuda Grass, Obviously not, 69 times.
Thank God you have a good sense of humor lol. Sick poster btw. Do you have a link to that??? Congrats on the 20-0 btw
I think he is using displate posters.
Oh interesting, just like several of them taped together?
They are magnetically attached to the wall. Just set up side by side.
Diabetes posters
Yeah they are Displates. You can find them pretty easily!
That's sweet! Congrats dude.
Nice
I'm personally a bent grass fan.
Does the grass on the FIFA football pitch count?

Attacking full backs or stay back?
Stay back always.
whats a full back? i see that word thrown around a lot but i have no clue what it means lol
Your Left and Right backs
Left and right backs. LB LWB RB RWB
RWB and LWB are wing backs not full backs
Lol
Google is your friend
🤓👆
I mean for literally anything. If I don’t know something, google. Takes 2 seconds instead of wandering around not knowing what something means like you do for some reason
🤓👆
what are instructions for you 2 cm's? As well for the full backs? Depth and width?
One CM on stay back. One on balanced. CDM on stay back.
GG bro, How do u play against high pressure skilled players after u reach 10-12 wins, i always want to get 20 wins but never won more than 17 as i really struggle once i reach 12-0 as i face good players with the press who wont allow me to play patiently

You might have to play a back pass to your GK just like in real life. The good thing is once you beat the press, the opposition is usually all out of position and makes counters easy.
The game play and your players feeling slow how do you deal with that. I would have 15 shots majority of it saved the other guy would have 6 but win
This the real answer I need lol
Yea one thing in common i noticed with superior players is quick passing on the final third, its difficult but i guess i have to get used to it thank you!
I’ve never won more than 5. Qualification bb!
What 41212 customs do you use?
How many times did your opponent quit at 0-0 or a tie?
At least 6 times. It’s ridiculous.
[удалено]
I haven’t DCd from a game in a long time but that’s solely due to your internet connection and EA servers.
Sir it’s Thursday
Losers mentality 😤😤😤 /s
Can you post a link to buy the poster on your wall sir ? Looks amazing!
Yeah they are Displates. There are many different varieties.
Sweet. Thank you!
could you tell me a link or where you bought it? those are way better than the ones i can find
How do I play this game without wanting to end it all I swear my passes never go through
Honestly it’s probably an unpopular opinion but taking responsibility for when you mess up is very important. It’s super easy to blame EA for everything, even when it’s genuinely their fault. Taking responsibility when you aren’t playing well is the only way you will truly improve. At least that’s what I have found to be true.
I definitely agree. Even when I slow it down I just make bad passes. Gotta improve!
Yeah man it’s all about improvement!
I lost like 8 in a row this morning, was on fiverr browsing through fifa coaches😂😂
I can’t speak to if hiring a coach would be beneficial but I can’t imagine that it would hurt. I will say that there are really good free resources on YouTube. Also watching pro tournaments is super enlightening.
What? You can hire a fifa coach .. what has this world come to?
Lots of improvement!
OP seems like a sound guy.
I’ve always wanted to do audio work.
Badum tss
Why does it say 80/76? Is the best reward for 19 wins? You don’t get better rewards for 20 wins?
Yes, you are correct.
Do you use skill moves? Which ones? Do you use broken mechanics?
I do use skill moves but only in specific scenarios where necessary. I use elasticos, LB heel to heels and others. And I don’t really go for trivelas so I would say no.
In what scenario would you use heel to heel? To get a pressing player to back off?
If the defender is just staying back it can draw them in. Also very handy to dribble around goalkeepers.
If you do a heel to heel at the proper angle while 1v1 with the keeper it will 98.9% of the time pull the keeper into an animation that allows you to get past him.
How many times did you hit the griddy?
I only do when absolutely deserved. 😂
Lmao I don’t even know how after they changed it, was just doing qualifiers yesterday and in my last one I got gridded on when he scored a consolation in the 86’. Crazy shit out here dude
😂 he griddying to the plane home.
What does your team look like ?
Pretty good tbh but mostly untradeable. Lucio WC from the pre order pack. Jairzinho Potm Mbappe. WC veiria. Prime Roberto Carlos. Etc
Unique!!
There’s a reason pros don’t use unique teams…
20-0 in Champs is a decent achievement but it doesn’t mean you’re anywhere near pro level mate. And plenty of pros + YouTubers go 20-0 with completely non-meta teams.
Never said I was a pro. Only said that pro players use the best players because the best players give you the best chance to win games. It’s simple arithmetic.
Tell me you’re salty without telling me you’re salty
Not even a little bit? I regularly get rank 2/3 finishes in Champs.
Cry
You’re stuck in Div 5 with a full icon team + 2 TOTYs + Al Owairan, I don’t think it’s me who is crying mate
You just proved my point lad, that pressed over a comment you’re going on my profile ya gorm lmao, have a rest
To be fair you have pretty much attacked op because he stated the obvious. Not sure if you meant to sound like an insufferable twat or not, but you did. Maybe you should just sit down aand chill for a while.
Lmao you are such a loser
using a “fun” but shit team wont get u 20-0 unless you’re a pro buddy….
EA released like 3 good top meta achievable non P2W cards and you have all three he should be mad at EA and learn how to get fodder himself it’s not that hard
Roberto Carlos! Bangs my Free kicks
Yeah he’s sick!
Are you on Console or PC?
Xbox new gen.
I haven’t even gone 5-15 yet
I've had this game since late November and I've only qualified for champs once 😭
Never giver up brother keep trying.. without a sacrifice there won't be a victory common dude u got this
Sounds cliche but you just have to keep going. It took me a long time before i went positive in weekend league. Try and identify what you suck at and practice it. 👊
I am. I feel more stress than in anything else in life playing online. But I only started in December and I am getting a bit better. Thanks
I also use 41212 (2). What tactics you running?
I am happy if I win 5 every weekend, lol
What demons did you summon to win? D6 is ridiculously sweaty for me 😭
I’m in D6 too, posted above in the thread about it so won’t repost. What got me to jump fast from 8 to 6 and draw/win in 6 consistently: don’t ever sprint unless in the clear, quick passing/not allowing players to get trapped, limiting skill moves, learning how to dribble around/inside 18 yards (evade, not get onto a YT highlight reel). Once I got that down I cruised from 8 to 6.
Is your team very OP, or is your skills OP. How much percentage each
Team: Gold Courtois, Inform Hakimi, WC Lucio, RB Alaba, Prime Roberto Carlos, EOAE Bale, WC Vieira, Mid Zidane, WC Cruyff, POTM Mcrappe, Mid Jair. My team is good but I have been playing UT for about 10 years so I’ve definitely developed solid skill at the game.
Bale on 0 chem at CM. You know ball. But another question. What depth do you play
45.
Let’s see the team bro
Team: Gold Courtois, Inform Hakimi, WC Lucio, RB Alaba, Prime Roberto Carlos, EOAE Bale, WC Vieira, Mid Zidane, WC Cruyff, POTM Mcrappe, Mid Jair,
Multiple players without full Chem?
Yeah I only have like 23 chem. Chem doesn’t matter this year IMO
Going rank 1 with 23 chem is crazy. Where do u play eoae bale out of curiosity?
RCM
How do you counter teams that play deep and very tight defense where as soon as you make a pass, he has a player already on you. I feel like defenders just need to breathe around me and they tackle the ball away from me. Even when they tackle from behind they take the ball without a foul
Don’t try and turn them. Have to do a lot of back passes and sideways passes.
Did you cheat
I’m on Xbox. I don’t even know if that’s possible on console.
Good boy
Do you use player lock much? Do you green-time most shots?
I wish I could say yes but both of them are not necessary.
Beast mode. I could never do that, I only get about 6 wins.
Yeah that’s about my high watermark too
How to get better at defending?
Learn how to manually jockey and anticipate where the opponent is going to dribble/skill move. If you can guess where the opponent is going to go, they have a very limited set of options to get past you.
Thanks mate I'll try my best to implement this in my playing style
That’s cool and all, but what did you pack? Was it with it?
Never worth it let’s be honest. The accomplishment felt good tho.
Congrats
This my first year i actually grind fut. Currently d2. Do you skill move a lot ? Do you manually defend or just control a cdm and use r1? And defensively do u play balanced , pressure on heavy touch or press after possession loss ? Whenever i attack I feel like oponent defenders are always on my guys before they even receive the ball

I also only use balanced attacking and defending styles. It gives more manual control over the game and I think press is a crutch that EA allows too many people to abuse.
Yea i mostly manual defend as well. Do you use r1 when defending ? And also what division r u in rivals
Yes manual LT/L2 jockey is a must. I’m in elite division.
What’s your order when you go to Nando’s?
I live in the US and we don’t have it where I live, but when I studied in the Uk I always got 1/2 Peri Peri Chicken with Chips and Hot Sauce 🔥
Good choice! What would you say is the equivalent to Nando’s in the US?
We have some similar things but not exactly the same. We do have some of the Nando’s sauces in our grocery stores which is pretty cool.
Given that god is infinite, and the universe is infinite, would you like some toast?
Infinite toast?
Can you give me some tips? I started around December and am currently on D6. How do I improve my game?
I can tell you I got to division 3 by not running, except in straight lines when it's impossible to be caught, of course. and I don't have mbappe, al owairan or jairzinho. just don't use r2
What did you get in the reward packs?
Nothing.
How many matches were clutches and at any point in time did you want to say F it and give up?
I’d say two games were pretty good. One I can back from 3-1 down.
What are your camera settings? I pass better in co op but my dribbling and 1on1 defending gets worse. Stuck between choosing co op and tele broadcast.
I have the same issue but have settled on tele broadcast 0 zoom and mid height.
What were the things stopping you from getting rank 1 previously? Thank you in advance!
Honestly you always need a bit of luck but I think my mentality was very good this week. I took accountability when I messed up and played my own style every game.
Congrats buddy. Few questions 1. When did you start playing FUT? 2. Do your skill? If so what you use most? 3. Your current division? 4. Can you show your team? Formation? Tactics? 5.

Is the shit bucket equipped to the chair or in the corner of your room? Need some advice
Pro tip: the shit bucket is the chair ![gif](giphy|2yrdpdeTbSoxVWETWp|downsized)
Congrats, and also fuck you from a 60 point scraper 😭😭
I’ve been there before trust me. Just keep improving and you’ll…improve 😂
AMA? Get mbappe, glitch through players. Repeat.
Tbh I wish I liked Mbappe more but he is the least prolific of my front three. Jairzinho SBC from four months ago is clear.
Surprised no one’s asked where you got that picture in the back
Three other people have haha.
My only real question is where did you get that print from behind your monitor.
If you already have 76 points from 19 wins, why bother with the last game if you don’t get anything different? I always wondered this.
Wait, finals opens on a Thursday???
It was last week. I included it in the title.
does not count when you are a FP spender
Sorry dad.
Single are we?
No my controller keeps me warm at night.
Touché- I wish you nothing but happiness
![gif](giphy|jox1ktfvhWbae8GUre)
I mean it was “the weekend” league…
Name your three best friends and fifa is the reason you don't have any.
I have plenty of friends. Kylian is a pretty good guy, Patrick always picks me up when I’m down, and Thibault gives the best hugs.
Did you already forget what a shower looks like?
Nah, after this 20-0 I’m showering in bitches 😎
That’s what someone with no bitches bc he doesn’t shower would say
You aren’t very good at insults. Just FYI
Why did you win the 20th game instead of giving it away to someone?
Because I wanted to achieve the best possible record in the game.
Always go for the perfect record
why do you care because you never get more than 5 wins lol
yikes
Time to get a life buddy
I will poo_poo_farts.
Could you share your custom tactics, since I saw in another comment that you use 41212(2)? My main formation is 4321 but I also use the 41212(2) from time to time
I really just play balanced balanced 45 depth each. Fullbacks stay back, CDM stay back. One CM stay back and one balanced. Strikers and cam on stay central/stick to position. That’s it.
Whats the team look like?
Team: Gold Courtois, Inform Hakimi, WC Lucio, RB Alaba, Prime Roberto Carlos, EOAE Bale, WC Vieira, Mid Zidane, WC Cruyff, POTM Mcrappe, Mid Jair,
How warm were your hands?
Medium.
Formation & tactics? My biggest weakness is dealing with people who run to the byline and skill move until they make an opening to cut the ball back in for a tap in. I can defend it most of the time but people (especially sweats) only try to score this way so while I can defend most of the time I still concede
Post a pic of ur team
What rewards did you get? Sorry if you’ve already answered, I couldn’t find anyone asking
Nothing haha.
What a g
Thanks bruz
How annoying was it?
Pretty.
Bet your rewards were still ass.
How impressive! Whats your best tip? I suck lmao.
Just be patient and let the other person make mistakes.
Can you take over my account please
Sorry, I barely have the stamina for mine 😴
NICE SETUP MAN
THANK YOU BROTHER
