i'm using combo3 and scoring goals for fun. but i concede some stupid goals in very few shots from my opponents. i find that my CB's close down too high up the pitch, leaving the middle of dfense open for a simple through ball. i've reduced closing down of CB's to own area and taken offside trap off to see if it improves my defending

cheer mate! After the patch, the matches seem to be different, so tell me if it works

Oh, and I forget to tell that turn off offside trap is one of the new update for 3Combo.
 
Ive tested out the new COMBO 2 tacric and getting very various results. Mostly played weak teams away, teams like Stoke, Newcastle, Norwich, draw 2 lost 1 but beat Tottenham 2-1 away. Honestly the COMBO 1 tactic is so strong in patch 13.2 that i use it even away and score for fun. Ive scored 107 goals after 26 games in the league!

Yeah, 1Combo is now so strong in my save for 13.2. I guess I must tell my testers to rely on 1Combo and 3Combo before a new update for 2Combo get on to work for us..
 
Is COMBO 3 a "defensive" version of COMBO 1? or too hold up a lead etc? when do you use COMBO 3 mate?

3Combo - Based on 1Combo, but no tweaking. This meant you cannot use Shout, OI, or change Strategy with 1Combo. So if you are playing 1Combo, and want to use Shout, OI, or change the strategy, switch to 3Combo and make it. 3Combo is similar to 1Combo in term of Team Mentality

I have been wanting to use your tactic for 13.2 latest patch. With Liverpool. What tactic to use away? And in combo 3 should I turn off offside trap? Rest of instructions of combo 1 and 3 like in the op? Help will be really appreciated as I haven't been able to find a decent tactic for 13.2
 
Hi dzunglv - I'm using your tactics recently and I must say that the results I achieve are very good. I play Welling United (team of 6 english league, and I am currently in the third ) and after entered the new patch my previous tactic stopped working and I had terrible results - 12 matches - 2 W / 2 D / 8 L. I started to use your tactics and in ten matches i had 8 W / 1 D / 1 L. I'm doing fantastic!! This tactic is amazing!! almost all the time I'm using 1Combo, sometimes 2Combo. When I played more matches I will put screenshots. However, I have one question - Is it possible to do something to score more goals? because usually I win 1-0 or 2-1 and I would like to gain more of them.

I suggest you to start the season with the instruction on OP. 1combo, 3combo for Home match and original 2combo for Away mate. 1combo please change Wide play of AMR to Move into Channel, 2Combo Passing type to Down both flanks, and 3combo counter att on, offside trap off. I will release the update soon but it will be much the same as I said above, mate! This still works on 13.2 so I think it will be ok.

And good luck, pal!;)

Hi mate!

Great result you got there!

In my save for 13.2, 1combo and 3combo give me **** lot of goals in Home matches. But I was using Man utd and the players have been trained with the tacitcs and with each others for 2 years! So I suggest you to keep trying them and keep me posted.

And can you describe here typical goals you got there. You may go to team report and post me the Goal type and Assist type screens. i think we should aim on your types to get more goals.

With Liverpool my reserves won the League Cup and got to the semi of the FA Cup. My first team won the League with 97 points, scoring 125 goals and conceding just 34. We got knocked out of the Champions League in the quarters due to Suarez getting sent off after 20 mins of the home leg which I lost 1-0. I was able to sell players for big money due to them getting such good ratings and replace them with better players for less or the same amount!

Team now

GK ter Stegen - Incredible gk as im sure everyone knows.
RB A mexican regen who is worth £21m at 20(wonderkid)
LB A German regen who is worth £17m at 18
CB Coates - Played over an 8 last season even though his stats are just ok. Scored 23 goals from corners
CB Zouma - Much better stats than Coates, played 7.83 I think, and hardly put a foot wrong all season
CM Lucas - Very, very good at what he does. Doesn't get forward too much, slightly tweaked his sliders.
CM Wilshere - Played AMC last season and he was awesome. Played 10 games this season and he could be even better at MC!
AMR - Sterling - Came on leaps and bounds last season and contributed over 30 goals via goals and assists.
AMC German regen. £24m at 21, wonderkid
AML Bale - Paid £24m for him and what a bargain! Whether he cuts in or stays out wide to put a great cross in he is my best player. Scored more goals than he played games!
SC Fierro - Scored 35 goals in the league but in some games he did struggle. Normally when the other team played big strong centre backs. Have got a young French regen who is quick, strong and good in the air. Might see how he does.

Overall combo1 is immense at home and away vs poor teams. We often create over 20 chances and one in five home games its over 30. Away combo2 is still good though Im sure you can improve it a lot. I really only use it vs Utd, City, Everton(derby), Arsenal, Chelsea and Spurs. All the other games I use combo1 and if I score first or its a very close game then I might change to combo2. And away in Europe vs the top sides I use 2.

I think whatever team you are pacey wingers with great dribbling is the players you should try to sign if you dont have them. My wingers score and assist so many goals its unreal. Draxler was good on the left but Bale is twice the player. Id imagine Hazard to be as good if not better! And the likes of Neymar or Messi I can only dream about!

Because my players stats were so good I was able to sell a 4th choice cb for £20m, Suarez at 31 for £25m, Shelvey for £25m, Butland for £12m when he was third choice and loads of players who got games in the League and FA Cup for transfer fees which were way too big.

As for Vietnam I've been everywhere and think its the most amazing country. Halong Bay and Sapa are beautiful. Hoi An is magical. They are my three favourite places

Love the total change of topic all of a sudden! :D
 
Working a lot, so i don't have much time to play. Anyway, trying to make something out of combo2 (stopped using the others 2 but will using Combo1 again at home and maybe test your combo2.1.2).

So, combo 2 with the new patch is not working for you guys, right? I don't agree.

In terms of defense i would not ask for more. The other team can have the ball and pass it around my box, but will not make many shoots, and the ones that makes are long ones. Sometimes i struggle if they play 2 strikers and an AMC, but for the majority of the games it's good.

In terms of attack, if the team seems to loose the ball many times in the midfield, and it seems it does not "explode" towards the "enemy" box, i shout "use/explore flanks". The wingers and the AMC will use the flanks to open the defense. Also i thick the TM and pass to feet. The wingers and the striker will score a lot and the 2 MCs will assist a lot too.
It's important to check if the MCs are loosing the ball because they hold it too much. if so, change their personal instructions to not do it.

And you score 2 goals. it's important to shout "hassle opponents" and "retain possession". If you just score 1 i advise to keep the flanks strategy, unless it's the final 10 minutes. If so, use this shouts.

You can also shout "closing down" if you feel the opponent wingers are getting too much space and "aggressive tackle" if you feel the midfield is letting the opponents run with the ball too much.

I will uplad my version of the combo 2 and will work in a variation of the combo2 against City kind of teams. But will only do this Wednesday at night. Untill then, and for those who believe it, have a great Xmas.
 
I've tried to use the Combo combination but now I'm using only Combo2.That's because even at home, if I use Combo1 or Combo3 I get beaten even by weaker teams.I have the possesion, I create chances, I have a lot of shots but the opposition scores with every shot they make:/
Any idea whats this about?

I'm glad that my tactics have worked on your save. Bale is definitely suitable for Combo tactics, as many of my testers had good results with him.

Totally agree with you for the pacey attackers. Whatever your team is, try to sign the fastest AML/AMR and Striker you can. Look at my new team, Molde, the pace is really good, one player even is rated 19 pace, which is very good news for me.

And cheer mate, cause you have visited my country. Also the people is a bit over-love money, but the scene, I mean the nature outside of the growing cities, is brilliant! You must be a great traveler, keithbeaky!

Hey guys,

Listen to apvmoreira : "

Since I rarely use Shout, I know little about it, but you guys all can find these tips above helpful for you to use with Combo. Maybe test this and make posted to me.

Totally agree with apvmoreira about the solid defense you must have for your team. Whatever your team is, sometimes you will need this as a tactical strategy. However, for guys who want some attacking tactics on Home matches, for 13.2, I suggest you to use 1Combo. It's now really good for the new patch.

I also have completely create a new version for 2Combo, 4-4-1-1, not the 2Combo(1.2) I tested a few pages before. The new 2Combo now (4-4-1-1) can attack better, but not sure if you guys need it?

I have tried to create new 2Combo with more attacking and chances during the last days of 13.1.3. However since 13.2 released, I have not experienced any complain from testers about 2Combo.

So I wonder should I upload the new 2Combo here as an update? (4-4-1-1 with more attacking and still balance defensive line, useful when you play away matches against normal opponent)

How has 2Combo worked for you, mate? Is it good enough?

And what is your team?
 
So how have you been on 13.2 with Combo tactics, mates? Should I release a new update here? I have complete new update for Combo tactics, but when I come back to the forum, It seems that many people still get on well with the original ones.

For the guys who don't, that is what always happen, so please provide more information on your specific situation, and I assist you on your problems.
 
I think combo1 at home is amazing, I dont use anything else. Away combo2 can struggle against big sides still, just got dominated by Man City and lost 3-0.

So if you have something new then I am willing to give it a try.
 
Okay, Now I edit the OP and release new update. I will keep the original ones posted, for the veteran Combo to try them again if they need. Hope that everything will be okay :)

Can you state the main differences between the 2combo and the 2combo v 13.2?

Btw, can you give it another name? Im starting to get confused (2combo for veterans, 2 combo that you tried, 2combo for 13.2... wow). IMO, it should be 2combo_13.1.2, 2combo_13.1.3 and 2combo_13.2.

This new should be great, since i need to change to a more attacking tactic away against smaller teams (like Arsenal and Liverpool :P)
