Thank you! Thank you! A thousand times thank you!
I've been using TFF's tactics since FM16 and always with a very good level of success, but this is the first time I feel like he's broken the game!
I just finished my second season with FC Porto and the results were... WOW!
So, basically I won every competition I played (National Supercup, League, League Cup, National Cup and Champions League) and I managed to do it losing only ONE game throughout the season. And that loss came in the final League game, when I was already champion and decided to rest my starting eleven for the Cup and Champions League finals (on a sidenote, I lost that game 1-3 to a team that finished 16th and I had 3 VAR-disallowed in the 2nd half while having more than 20 shots on target).
The Champions League (and this had never happened to me) was a walk in the park! I won all 13 games I played and, outside of the final against MU, where I only beat them 1-0 and that was a true nailbiter, in all the other games I managed to beat my opponents (Leverkusen - last 16; Liverpool - quarters and Man City in the semis) fairly easily.
I used Battlemaster V5 in the first season with very good results (won the League and the League Cup; lost in the Portuguese Cup 3-0 against Benfica in a very weird match and lost against Liverpool in the first round of the CL playoffs). Overall, lost a total of 3 games in that season, but against top opposition (Man City, Liverpool) I struggled to win. I did put up a good fight but, in the end, the best I could get was a couple of draws.
But it all changed when I switched to Conqueror V3...

Utter and complete dominance at a domestic level (at one point, with a lot of squad rotation, I managed to beat Benfica 5-0 and 6-1 in the space of a week!) with more than 130 league goals scored (with Battlemaster I had scored 100), and in the CL having a flawless campaign.

I am the first to say that there may be some BUT's and IF's to my campaign. I am playing FM Touch (so I don't have to worry about training or things like tactic fluidity) and I was probably lucky to be bought by an Arab millionaire at the end of the first season, thus allowing me to invest a good amount of money in my squad (I'm curious to see if that happens in other saves because it is a game changer. Porto have a bg budget limitation at the beginning of the game!)

So, to you, TFF, I say Thank you!
One final thing: since many of you have been achieving success with Shield Wall V2, I'm going to try it also, to see if it is as dominant as Conqueror has been.
