5-3, so looking ok, at least for Rank 3.

The more I play the more I agree with this Futon feature:

As we start to see the lasting effects of the latest patches I think it is safe to say that we would all like FIFA 22 back in its original form. Yes the keepers were superhuman at close range, yes the keepers turned to mush when the ball was struck from distance, yes certain cards seemed to have out of this world abilities, but … the game was predictable, the game was manageable and most of all, the game was fun. At this stage, it appears that once again the gameplay is slightly moving in the wrong direction and certainly the return of a more drop-back-through-ball meta has emerged in spades.

Had a few beers and need to restock the club so I think it's FP time.

Got the shittest group stage card and Cordoba.

24 fucking thousand?!?!?

Christ on a bike. You're not even doing much competitive play are you?

Calling it a night at 7-4. This is a fucking slog.

Jesus Yev

anything good?

**The Merse** · 04-12-2021, 04:21 AM

Ended up doing the last win required for Rank 3 on 8-4, pretty happy with that but can't be arsed to go to rank 2.

Team of the Week pack had VvD in it

Add to that that I've got Saka in the red picks, and it's a good weekend.

**Danny** · 04-12-2021, 04:29 AM

@The Merse Lovely!

Think you will swing it to get him the team?

Cordoba was the best, but I did also get a lot of fodder.

Feels like the game is trying to persuade me to - also had Robertson in the other pack and Alison came out of another.

Likely use it to upgrade Socrates to a better Icon.I did consider upgrading Militia but his Numbers Up version just doesn't look worth it to me.

Sorry mate, I just hadn't realised that Squad Battles had become pay to win!

You need a lot more than 24k FIFA points to start pay to winning.

**thommo** · 04-12-2021, 01:13 PM

Managed to finish off both Osimhen and Defrel in about 2 hours last night. The little packs you get back from each objective have been fairly kind to me too, some 83s and 84s, plus a couple of walkouts in Muller and Mahrez. I'm looking to do a few SBCs, Chong and maybe the Japanese duo.

**Yevrah** · 04-12-2021, 01:21 PM

I'm gonna get on that today. Any tips on low rated golds to use?

**thommo** · 04-12-2021, 01:26 PM

I had Keita Balde and Muriel up front and they cut open the lower rated CBs constantly. Used Barella in CM as my highest rated player and he felt brilliant to use. Most people were quitting after I got 1 or 2-0 up which definitely helped.

**The Merse** · 04-12-2021, 03:44 PM

400k for VVD, and 555k (a 50k profit, no less) for Socrates has allowed me to bring in Rulebreaker Bamba (for Davidson, LM switching to RM), Signature Diego Carlos (for Militao) and Signature Ben Yedder for Socrates himself.

**Danny** · 04-12-2021, 06:21 PM

Sule and Pique Showdown SBC's.

Both got pace boosted into the 80's

**Danny** · 04-12-2021, 07:25 PM

A fair few low rated golds and a lot of silvers are going for ~3k from the prem right now.

Cleaning out the club and make some serious coins on them.

**Yevrah** · 04-12-2021, 09:16 PM

Back on. That Pique looks mega.

**Yevrah** · 05-12-2021, 02:32 AM

Shit league SBC packs for the win.

**Danny** · 05-12-2021, 02:35 AM

Tasty. His 83 was expensive for a while (as far as 83s go) Heard good things about him in general this year.

**Yevrah** · 05-12-2021, 02:43 AM

He looks absolute mustard with a Finisher.

**Yevrah** · 05-12-2021, 03:19 AM

Rest of the shit I couldn't see opened on the Web App (some walkouts and fodder were had) and that leaves 200 packs left.

25% of the way to last year's value total.

**thommo** · 05-12-2021, 12:35 PM

Those stats for Chiesa look pretty ridiculous for an 87. Cracking pull.

**The Merse** · 05-12-2021, 04:19 PM

Updated team. Pique cleaned out the rest of my ‘available’ high rated in the club, so now it’s on to running up the club reserves again.

Pique caused me to lose 40K on Diego Carlos in 2 days.

**Waffdon** · 05-12-2021, 04:54 PM

Kante putting in a shift for that team

**Danny** · 05-12-2021, 05:20 PM

Fred IF after these two games? please

I deeply despise anyone playing more than one DM or more than one stay back midfielder.

**Yevrah** · 05-12-2021, 06:02 PM

A really badly priced Nmecha SBC has landed.

**Raoul Duke** · 05-12-2021, 06:09 PM

Anthony looks good but another RW? Do they even think about squad building at all?

**Yevrah** · 05-12-2021, 06:16 PM

That was my first thought.

Back on. https://www.twitch.tv/chemicallocust

**The Merse** · 06-12-2021, 02:24 AM

Level 20 Premium Players pack came in strong

Don't think I've got any way to get him into the team now, mind.

**Raoul Duke** · 06-12-2021, 07:43 AM

Get Diego Carlos back

**Waffdon** · 06-12-2021, 09:52 AM

You must be the best player in the world if you’re not conceding 2/3 a game.

**Danny** · 06-12-2021, 03:08 PM

I play 4-2-3-1 (obviously

) with one stay back (Kante) and one balanced CDM (KDB).

I used to use Onyeka in the Kante role and he rarely stayed back.

**The Merse** · 06-12-2021, 03:38 PM

Obviously, I'm being a bit hyperbolic, but the issue I have with the FBs set to stay back + 2 x DM or CM with stay back is that it's just such a negative mindset to limit the degree to which you might fall behind rather than amp up what might put you ahead. And there's no doubt the game is much more fun when it's flowing, without 9 players in the defending teams boxes.

Generally concede a couple but very rarely don't score 4+ in Rivals. My results last night were 4-0, 6-1 and 8-3.
In Champs it's a bit more varied - I've been rank 2 any week that I've played the full allocation, rank 3 at a breeze if I don't, so I'm definitely winning more than losing, but it's a tighter affair, given folks are so sweaty. Every now and then there's a blow out too.

I will say, I'm now at depth 45 for both my 4-1-2-1-2 wide defensive and attacking tactics (I don't use neutral), which is the lowest I've ever played in FUT (Ultra Def excluded). But neither are drop back, and there's only one stay back order in the attacking set up, which I default to in minute 1, and the defensive just asks the full backs to stop overlapping.

I use that too but KDB at least has good physical stats, work rates and decent defensively for the B2B role.

My depth is on 65, maybe that’s my issue heh

**Danny** · 06-12-2021, 04:07 PM

55 Width for me with 57 Depth.

**Yevrah** · 06-12-2021, 04:10 PM

My depth is 49 or 51, so it looks like Merse is playing with the lowest....

**The Merse** · 06-12-2021, 04:17 PM

Yeh I find with the 4-1-2-1-2 and only three players on def duty, you need the extra few yards to defend the through ball counter vs the 8 defensive duty players that leave 2/3 up top and just ping through balls.

**Yevrah** · 06-12-2021, 04:19 PM

Jesus, given I'm playing with a back three I might have to do the same. Cheers Merse.

**thommo** · 06-12-2021, 04:36 PM

I'd completely forgotten about custom tactics. Guess I'd better get mine sorted as I'm slowly rising up the divisions now.

**Danny** · 06-12-2021, 04:54 PM

**Raoul Duke** · 06-12-2021, 05:00 PM

I just stuck everything on 42 because it's a cool number without really thinking about it. I play 4-2-2-2 mostly.

EA reusing the same players for another promotion SHOCKER

**Yevrah** · 06-12-2021, 05:12 PM

Yep and no matter how many times I get a special Correa, I'll never use him.

**Waffdon** · 06-12-2021, 05:18 PM

It’ll be Correa for Atletico who is absolutely brilliant as it is. If he gets a decent upgrade as a striker he’ll be one of the best in the game

**Yevrah** · 07-12-2021, 12:10 AM

What a free bronze pack that was.

**Raoul Duke** · 07-12-2021, 07:52 AM

Stuff of dreams that

I've been hammering the league SBCs but haven't really got too much out of it so far. Did complete Pique though as he's just too useful to be able to link into the Spanish league/Llorente etc.

**Danny** · 07-12-2021, 03:00 PM

Ended up doing both Pique and Sule.

With Oxford/Sule and Pique/Kounde the CBs are probably set in those two leagues for a little while.

Face stats wise that looks appalling for an 86.
