THIS TACTIC IS BETTER ----> BATTLEMASTER !



THIS THREAD IS CLOSED







PLEASE NOTICE IF YOU USE "INSTANT RESULT" OPTION TO PLAY THE GAME THEN THERE'S A SPECIAL TACTIC TO USE WITH INSTANT RESULT, IT'S CALLED TFF INSTANT RESULT (SUNFIRE) V4



IF YOU NORMALLY PLAY THE GAME(WITHOUT "INSTANT RESULT") THEN THERE ARE 2 TACTICS AT THE OP : SUNFIRE V3 AND TITAN V5.

SUNFIRE V3 IS BETTER THAN TITAN V5 SO I RECCOMMEND THAT YOU USE SUNFIRE V3.





ML should be right footed.

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

WASTE TIME TACTICS:

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.

( TITAN )WASTE TACTIC-->TFF WASTE TIME ( TITAN ) V2









IMPORTANT INFORMATION:


- Opposition Instructions are important so make sure you set them as recommend!

- If you use SUNFIRE tactic and you have a red card then remove CM ( A ) and move CM ( S ) to the center.

- If you TITAN tactic and you have a red card then remove AMC.

- Only ML/MR positions should take the corners.








SOME TIPS HOW TO BUILD YOUR TEAM:


I'm sure that many already noticed that this year FM version demands to pay more attention to the squad building area in order to have a success in the game. You might noticed that players get tired sufficiently after matches and there are a lot of injures and red cards so as I said to have a success in the game you must build your team that way to be protected against those issues.

I recommend you to have no less than 3 players for every position but it doesn't mean that you should have exactly 3 players for every position because one player might cover few positions.

Train your players to play many different positions because it might be very helpful.




OPPOSITION INSTRUCTIONS:
View attachment 197137



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:

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.

So what's the point of these replies?

No one is asking you to play with his tactics. If you don't like someone or a tactic, just move on...
 
Nobodys forcing you to use any of them :)

I know!!!

It´s just some kind of dejá vú...

Every time TTF9 release a tactic it´s 30% better than is old one...we should have by now a perfect tactic!

Keep the good work lol

The game is still quite new so I guess he's learning about the ME all the time and coming up with different approaches.
 
Thanks for your work TFF. I hope someday you write a guide on tactic creating and testing.
 
Hello
is it possible to create tactic for the teams lower divisions like conferance south ?
because lot of users ( old game players since cm93 ) Bath city Fc I need help voor my son to.



Can you be so kind to create one tactic for managers play those leaques?

Thanks in advance

Themosnl
 
@TFF:

The individual training doesn't seem to be correct yet. Should we just train them in their playing positions (roles)?
 
@TFF:

No, mate... It's correct. I recommend using such training.







There are 2 tactics: STORM and VORTEX.

VORTEX is better than STORM but only if you set the specific man marking for it every match.

If you don't want to set the specific man marking for VORTEX tactic then you'd better use STORM tactic.





*** STORM ***

ML should be right footed and MR should be left footed or at least have "Fairly Strong/Strong" rating for the left foot.

Opposition Instructions are important so make sure you set them as recommend!

Strom_V2_real_Fix.png








*** VORTEX ***

This tactic performs better than ECLIPSE but you need to set the specific man marking for it every match and if you don't want to bother yourself by doing it then you'd better use ECLIPSE tactic.

DOWNLOAD THE TACTIC -->TFF VORTEX V5

DOWNLOAD MIRROR VERSION OF THE TACTIC -->TFF VORTEX (MIRROR) V5

Please notice, it's very important if you the mirror version then you should also mirror the man marking!

Vortex_V5_Mirror_Barca.png
Vortex_V5_Real.png



Information about the specific man marking for VORTEX tactic:

Please notice, it’s very important if you the mirror version then you should also mirror the man marking!

If you use the normal version(not the mirror) then you need to set your left striker(STCL) to man mark the opposition player that plays on the position under the arrow.

If you use the mirror version then you should set the man marking for your right striker(STCR) instead of the left striker(STCL) as for the normal version and you should mark the ppposition player that plays at the mirror position to the position under the arrow at the screenshot!

Please notice that you need to set the specific man marking not only against the formations that are shown at the screenshot but also against any other formations but what position to man mark against other formations should be obvious.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION:


- Opposition Instructions are important so make sure you set them as recommend!


- If you have a red card and you use STORM tactic then remove MCL and move MCR to the center.

- If you have a red card and you use VORTEX tactic then remove STCL and move MCR to the center(you will be playing without the man marking).

- Only AML/MR positions in Vortex or ML/MR positions in STORM tactic should take the corners.

hey tff thanks for the tactic. do you think that man city will be good for the this tactic?
 
No, mate... It's correct. I recommend using such training.

Is ist right to train them in other roles they are playing or did I misunderstand something?

Example:

AMCL/AMCR - Trequartista -> is playing Shadow Striker

ML - Inside Forward/Winger -> is playing Wide Midfielder

MR - Inside Forward/Winger
-> is playing Wide Midfielder

MC – Advanced Playmaker
-> is playing Central Midfielder

DM – Defensive Midfielder


CDL/CDR – Ball Playing Defender

DL/DR – Complete Wing Back
-> is playing Full Back

GK – Goalkeeper

 
May i ask, the screen with all the tactic , coz with Fm touch we need to copy the tactic we can't load it. Tyvm for your work
 
OMG, I just got to work and now I'll have to wait 8 hours to get home and play with TFF's new tactic. FML ;)
