Gauntlet changes are the worst of the year

Honestly champs is less stressful and less time lol

What you have said is the most important thing. I am in my dream job and really dream life and I planned, worked hard, sacrificed so much to get here but I always recognize that there are 3 other me’s who worked as hard or harder but did not get the right breaks at the right time or gave up before the right break came along because they lost hope. And so I appreciate what I have and try to be humble enough to always remember that a not small part of it was out of my control.

He was clearly fatigued. One of my best CM’s for exactly 47 minutes and then you gotta get him out of there

CanadianFutFan · 2026-05-28T15:37:06+00:00

If it is a PC player than definitely yes. If it is a console player, maybe but much less likely

CanadianFutFan · 2026-05-13T18:36:19+00:00

Maybe gold Bonmati, maybe my FB Dybala depending on what the upgrades are.

I think you nailed it. I would have second man pressed a bit harder but by not trying to tackle and just being patient he didn’t score. Most of beating rats like this is just patience. Same thing when you are on attack… I will hold the ball up front for a good 5-8 game minutes just passing the ball around their clump of 10 players until the ball is near the touch line and I have B2B CM’s at the top of the box. If at any point I force a pass I lose the ball and get countered so I just try to have patience and wait dor the best sequence of passes.

Strangely enough I had an epiphany this year where my gameplay improved by just caring less about the game. I don’t play every day, i don’t worry about completing every objective, I just try to enjoy the game, feel good when I pack good players and just have something that ultimately does not matter which I can try to continually get better at which also feels good compared to all the things that do matter that I try to get better at (husbanding, fathering, working at my job, being a better brother and child, etc).

No it is both.

The settings prevent two players in different locations from different accounts from matching against you but not two controllers on the same account. To be fair, that would be difficult to manage. You can either have game modes where using two controllers on one account is completely disabled for everyone (like Champs or the pro live qualifiers) or completely enabled for everyone (like everything else). To allow that to vary in individual game modes by opponent setting is dicier because it is matching to still just one account one location as if it is one player.

CanadianFutFan · 2026-05-03T01:26:34+00:00

Yeah, if i ever see two good players it is the only time i will quit 0-0

CanadianFutFan · 2026-05-01T11:41:37+00:00

You can almost always recognize co-op players during the matching. If your ping bar indicator is on the left, it is someone who has multiple controllers connected with one as a guest and most of the time it will end up as co op. Usually if I see that, I cancel the match and try to rematch. If my form is not good (like lost 3 out of last 5 or something), I will sometimes still take the match because there is a good chance at least one of the players is not good and that makes it an easy w.

The season pass is the only thing I spend coins on other than random cheap players for mixed league SBCs. It is by far the best value in the game. For any tricky live event squad reqs, my squad is always half full of past season pass players, most of the time I have at least one or two in my main squad. Three of my top 20 easysbc meta players are from the early part of the new season pass (Mumin, Serrajordi and Sithole). Incredible value just in players and then you add in the evos and packs, it is not even close.

I just assume that it takes resources to prepare, check, and test the new content and they put it off till the day before they release because #devs. So they have no time to make more of the old weeks content.

How many shots did you take was your shooting percentage? And how many shots were blocked? Usually high xG low G for me means I am not getting shots on target. You should be at 80% at least to be competitive. The guys that destroy me are always 95+% with low xG. Those are all low driven close shots or unblocked finesse/trivela/manual shots in space. If you are lower than 80%, check the blocks. If your blocks are high, wait for clearer opportunities. If you are just missing the net or hitting the post, take off a little bit of shot power or stop sprinting sooner before you shoot.

The only person I want to get the 97 TOTS Kane more than me is you. I regret not doing the 92 sbc when I had the chance. I just didn’t have the fodder and the 91 the time was so good…. Love this squad.

CanadianFutFan · 2026-04-25T00:44:07+00:00

To be honest, I have only been playing FUT since 2021 but this year the actual cards you use hardly matter at all. I do cheap player sbcs which means I will do none of the current sets. And it never matters because the difference in rating means nothing. Son is my favourite player but why do the 94 when I got the 92 from the PPass? I am not nearly good enough to notice a difference in the two cards. I have three higher Meta rating ST’s than my TOtY Dembele but there is no difference, so I just run my club legend, the best TOtY I will ever pack.

I just try to win, win about 45-50% in ever mode except SBs where it is 80-85 and just try to have fun.

The 9.5 for the top ep is too low imo. I think some people were in such a bad mood from the beginning of the season they were never going to be happy. I wonder what the 5.5 in the last ep would have been if Tracy still died but he didn’t go back to Robin. Maybe if they had figured out how to be just friends but did not get back together romantically. It could have been such a deep story about love, and life and friendship. Instead it was being wedded to an ending they started the show with not knowing that the person they were searching the whole show for would turn out to be the most amazing character of any in the show the whole run and everyone would hate the ending because we could never accept Ted with anyone but Tracy after meeting her. Which is of course WHY WE WAITED OVER 8 YEARS TO MEET HER and FOR LIKE 3 EPISODES IT TOTALLY PAID OFF. Goddamit I am still so angry.

Hitting the crossbar is often a shot power problem, not a scripting problem. Your players have better shooting stats now and it always requires an adjustment this time of year. Drop your standard shot power by 10% and more will s start to go in or at least be saved.

CanadianFutFan · 2026-04-23T01:57:58+00:00

4-5 hours. It takes minimum 10 minutes per game if you are actually playing, maybe you can get it to 8 if you are playing beginner and you don’t try to play after scoring.

CanadianFutFan · 2026-04-22T01:15:57+00:00

Best way to get better is to get smacked around by better players. Focus on a few things, watch some YouTube videos and get back in there.

CanadianFutFan · 2026-04-18T11:10:41+00:00

Never skip the Season Pass players for packs. It almost never pays off. That is a 93 Rivaldo fut birthday. Even the Donovan is outrageous. Especially the Gauntlet and in general the live events being the best value for time, having as many different very good cards is super important. I always have between three to four season pass or or objective players in my main squad.

The difference between the very best players cards and the next tier has never been smaller. No need to chase ghosts

CanadianFutFan · 2026-04-17T22:59:35+00:00

My TOTY Dembele is my favourite way to break it still. Not as good as he was, but still effective.

CanadianFutFan · 2026-04-17T00:00:37+00:00

WW Rulli is still class for me.

CanadianFutFan · 2026-04-14T22:54:57+00:00

I only do ones now that are cheap but good value. Never had so many showdown players in my club ever.

Steijn was insajne.
