ML should be right footed or he should have at least "Strong" rating for the right foot

MR should be left footed or he should have "Fairly Strong"/"Strong" rating for the left foot.

DR should be right footed.

DL should be left footed.



Only ML or MR positions should take the corners.

WASTE TIME TACTIC:

Use this tactic in order to protect your lead and kill the game. Please notice that this tactic doesn't give 100% guaranty that you won't concede it only greatly reduces the chances of it happens so you should it wisely, for example, when you play against much weaker team and lead only by 1 goal then it makes sense to wait for more solid lead at least by 2 goals before to start use this tactic because everything might happens and it’s always frustrating to conceded a fluke goal at last minutes and miss win.

IF YOU PLAY WITH "INSTANT RESULT" THEN PLEASE READ THIS:

This tactic can used with "Instant Result" but only with some conditions: your players at ML and MR positions SHOULD NOT have "Wide Playmaker" role as the highest rated for ML/MR position.

Your players at ML and MR positions should have any of these roles as the highest rated: "Winger", "Wide Midfielder" or "Defensive Winger".

For example, let's take Neymar. As you can see he's got "Winger" as the highest rated role at ML position so he can be used at ML position with "Instant Result".

Also, If you play only with "Instant Result" then I suggest removing "Tackles Harder" PI from all positions in the tactic because when you play with "Instant Result" then you can't manage the tackle settings of the positions during matches and in this case you'll be getting some extreme amount of red cards due to the 2nd yellow card.











HERE SOME IMPORTANT TIPS THAT WILL HELP YOU TO GET THE BEST RESULT:


You should try to have such players at ML/MR/STC/AMC/MCL positions that have "Reasonable"/"Fairly Strong"/"Strong" rating for thier weak foot because it gives a very solid advantages.

- If you got a red card then remove AMC

HOW TO DEAL WITH RED AND YELLOW CARDS:

First of all, you need to understand that if a player gets a straight red card in the match then in 90% of cases it's due to his hidden attribute that called "Dirtness" so you can do nothing about and it's just a random factor in the game.

BUT you can avoid a red card that a player gets because of the 2nd yellow card and in order to do that you can add "Ease Off Tackles" PI to a player that already has one yellow card or you can substitute him. This is especially important for this tactic because all positions in this tactic have "Tackles Harder" PI active so be ready to change the tackling settings of the positions during matches if you see that they got a yellow card or otherwise you'll be getting huge amount of red cards.

- You should always play your right footed Central Defenders at DCR position and your left footed Central Defenders at DCL because only that way they will be able to start your attacks with accurate passes at their flanks and don't clear the ball high up field. Also, please notice that it's enough if your central defender that plays at DCL position has only "Fairly Strong" rating for the left foot so he shouldn't be left footed in this case.

OPPOSITION INSTRUCTIONS:

TRANING AND MATCH PREPARATION:

1) During the pre-season play no less than 5-7 friendly matches and I recommend to choose weaker opponents in order to guaranty easy wins in friendly matche and have "Superb" morale for your players when the season starts.

2) Put the tactic into all 3 tactic slots because it makes the tactic familiarity grows much faster.

3) Choose "Match Tactics" focus for the match preparation because it makes tactic familiarity grows faster.

4) When the tactic familiarity reaches about 90% change the match preparation to "Def. Position".

RECOMMENDED ATTRIBUTES FOR THE POSITIONS

First of all, if you are going to use the filters then you should turn OFF the "Attributes Masking" setting when you start a new save otherwise the filters would be useless.

Here's a screenshot with an information how you can turn it OFF when you start a new:

DOWNLOAD THE FILTERS -->TFF FILTERS BATTLEMASTER V1


Few tips how to use the filters:

First of all, you need to have 100% scouting knowledge for these major football nations(you can send your scouts to inspect these nation or buy scouts who already possesses knowledge about these nations): Spain, Portugal, England, Italy, Germany, France, Holland, Brazil, Greece, Russia, Ukraine, Turkey.

In case if you find it hard to find players through the filters here's what you can do there's an option that allows you to "easy match conditions" in the Scouting menu and you can "easy" match conditions by 1 condition in most cases it will double the pool of players that show in the search field but you need to pay attention what parameter is missing and for how much. I would recommend avoid to have difference more than 1-2 points away.

This way you can also find young talents for your team.

No short pass on the right, did you forget, you have to do it on purpose?

So hehe we are back to TITAN tactic;)

By this logic, Mourinho also used TITAN with MANU yesterday with wrong-footed wide-midfielders (Mata on right, and Martial on left), and Rooney behind Ibra :)

Maybe TFF==Jose the special one,)
 
Is the right defender still the most important position in this tactic?
 
*****

Guys, I've updated the tactic to V2 and added a small tweak to the closing down settings DL/DR positions.

Also, I added "a cosmetic" tweak to the passing settings of MR position in order to remove any furhter confusions.​

No, mate... DR position isn't the most important position anymore.

I'd say STC/ML/MR are the most important positions in the tactic.
 
Hey TFF :) Finally Formation with 2 Wide Midfielders (Inside Forwards) :) i have a question for you :)

So I want to change Shadow Striker to Attacking Midfielder on Support duty with ( Hold Up Ball ) ... what do you think ? In FM15 you used it with Predator if i remember good :)

Click to expand...

Mate, changing Shadow Striker to Attacking Midfielder ( Support ) significantly reduces the efficiency of the attack without any significant buff to the defense so I'd say the effect of such change would be strongly negative for the tactic's performance.
 
TITAN vs BATTLEMASTER

I use TITAN tactic and taste, it gives great results. Follow the new tactics of TFF, but not changed until today, because like symmetrical tactics.

Battlemaster is very similar to TITAN. For all the tests and experiments to create Battlemaster, I imagine it to be better than TITAN, correct?
 
Tff what was the need of changing tactics then m8 was it because the new tactic is better attacking or defensively or both or gives abit more balance
