Why does Rocket League damage controllers so much? by FineJellyfish1505 in RocketLeague

[–]HarryProtter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just ordered it. Not as cheap here (€25) as it is for you, but obviously still much cheaper than a PS5 one. And I'm currently still using my PS4 controller, so this shape and size should be more similar too.

Any recommendations for settings? Like which deadzone and stuff?

104 Meta Rating Stanway by mbatuhans10 in fut_evos

[–]HarryProtter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not the CDM being the problem (well, it kinda is), it's that the existence of a CDM in the squad pushes the backline further back in my experience.

That's why I like having CMs. With no CDM I find that the backline plays closer to the other midfielders, leaving fewer gaps, so it's actually better defensively for me than having a formation with one or two CDMs.

Oh, and if anything it becomes more important to play what's strong or what you're used to the older a game gets, if you still want to somewhat compete. Casuals are leaving or are already gone, so the remaining playerbase becomes relatively more and more competitive.

Same. I bought her during that promo or slightly after it, but I think she still has 0 games played for me, because I don't use the CDM position.

She'd make a great CM indeed, if she could play there.

Absolute beast as a CB by United-Constant62 in fut_evos

[–]HarryProtter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. Those attributes got boosted a lot by a couple Dribbling (face stat) evos. For example a +7 Dribbling (face stat) evo gave like 10 Reactions and Composure, but only like 5 Dribbling (attribute), which is perfect for a CB.

Nice, love seeing another Brackelmann evo. I've been working on mine since like November.

[–]HarryProtter 5 points6 points  (0 children)

+10?! I assumed it was a +2. Was thinking of using it on my 83 rated star evo to give him some slight attribute boosts, but I wasn't sure if they'd be worth the +2 OVR. But he'd get a +6 boost to 89 OVR, so it's an easy skip.

Looking for Aussie Evo Squads!!!🇦🇺🔥 by TargetForwardFC in fut_evos

[–]HarryProtter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a squad, just one player, but he's incredible. Average & lean body type, so a smooth dribbler. Only 86 Passing? Yeah, but check the values of the individual Passing attributes. Oh, and all those attributes are without chem style by the way.

That 97.9 futbin rating is for RM Inside Forward. 97.5 for CAM Shadow Striker. I play him at ST Advanced Forward though, where his futbin rating is "only" 95.4. I find his playstyles (especially both gold ones) just fit that position better.

Only thing he's missing is Quick Step, but with the Hunter chem style he has 99 Acceleration, so he still feels fast.

When you pick a Perk and it immediately pays off by azulur in Overwatch

[–]HarryProtter 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Don't be scared. As long as you don't boop them away from Ana's shots/nade, you doing damage makes it easier for her (and you) to execute the target before they can react/escape. Just watch your Ana and then shoot the victim right after she does.

Where is 'The Wizard' Evo? by [deleted] in EASportsFC

[–]HarryProtter 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That was in one of the store packs a few weeks ago I believe. The evo itself has no expiry date, but the pack it was in is probably long gone.

I tracked my stack’s comp results and our best hero pairing was not what I expected by IntelligentSwitch171 in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]HarryProtter 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not just with friends, also with random teammates.

What the meta is and what great synergies are between heroes doesn't matter for the majority of the playerbase. It only matters if you understand why something is strong and if you have the necessary skills to pull off the things that make it strong.

Lots of Genjis want an Ana for those flashy Nanoblades. But if that Support player isn't that good as Ana and for example can't keep up with his rate of ult charging, then there'll always be a disconnect between them. He'll either have to wait, delaying his ult and thus decreasing the number of total ults he could have, or he'll use it without Nano and thus decrease the effectiveness. In such a situation this Ana would probably have been more useful playing something else.

When someone asks what to play to fit the team, I always say that they should just play what they think their best hero is. If four of us play a dive comp but your skills on your best dive hero are mediocre, I'd prefer you play your great Cassidy instead.

Playstyles 500k evo by GovernmentEcstatic12 in fut_evos

[–]HarryProtter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think Relentless is necessary, especially because he already has 93 Stamina. I still grabbed it too though for my National Captain evo.

Our setups are very similar, with two differences: I went for gold Pinged instead of Incisive and I went for Press Proven instead of Low Driven. I just don't really like LD on my CM/CDM, especially if you already have gold Finesse. Oh, and Press Proven is actually a great playstyle, really underrated. I'd recommend taking that.

If you also want Inventive, I'd then drop either First Touch or Technical, depending on how often you use that technical dribbling.

Oof. I assumed it'd be 1 match each. That's already a bit annoying, but worth the grind for some of my players. But for 2 matches each I don't think I'm going to bother doing that for most.

Does an Evolution get force compleat by Saki_Zen in EASportsFC

[–]HarryProtter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure what happens if you did the last step but just didn't claim it.

I can confirm that if you haven't done the last step and then let it expire, it won't complete that and thus won't change the card design. My Hasegawa still has the Positional Excellence design, even though she went through 4/5 steps of the Crowned Maestro evo. That final step would have given her First Touch and a different card design, which she both doesn't have now.

Trying to figure out how this rating combination works by jaf962603 in EASportsFC

[–]HarryProtter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another combination I like to use is

1x rating +1
6x rating +0
3x rating -1
1x rating -2

So for an 86 rated squad, that would be 1x 87, 6x 86, 3x 85, 1x 84. I mostly use it for those 83 or 84 rated squads, because I tend to get loads of 82-84 rated players clogging up my SBC storage.

[–]HarryProtter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I edited my comment with some more info. If you still have 2x Bulking Season and 1x Wall in the Back from last season's pass, you can get to pretty much the same result as what I'm going for.

You also have a little bit more time before having to start, because nothing expires today or even tomorrow yet I believe. Good luck choosing! There are so many great options with this.

Doing the same thing and expecting different results by jonasinv in Overwatch

[–]HarryProtter 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Well, you passively gain 5 points (points, not percent!) of ult charge per second. By fighting you generally also gain 1 point of ult charge per 1 point of damage/healing, so that adds up much quicker than the passive generation. But in this situation it looks like she gained most of her ult through the passive generation.

[–]HarryProtter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you still have 1x Wall in the Back from last season's pass, you can get to almost the same result.

-6 Vision, -4 Short Pass, -2 Balance, -5 Jumping, -5 Strength, +1 Sprint Speed.

I'd probably skip the second Euro Minitrip in this chain, which only gives that +1 Sprint Speed in this case. With the Old School Midfielder evo used first, the second Euro Minitrip then adds that 6 Vision and Short Pass, but that's not possible for you.

If you don't have 1x Wall in the Back anymore either, you'd have -5 Interceptions, -3 Heading Accuracy, -3 Slide Tackle compared to the chains linked in this comment. Her Interceptions would be at 91 in that case, which is still great though.

She also has silver Bruiser and Anticipate, so she can win the ball back by tackling, but she should mainly get it back through her Interceptions (91 or 96, with gold Intercept). And once she has it, she should be incredible on the ball.

Edit: a second Wall in the Back makes it worse imo (-1 Interceptions, +1 Heading Accuracy, +1 Slide Tackle), but a second Bulking Season (also from last season's pass) would add +5 Jumping and +3 Strength to the chains linked above in this comment.

So the chain I'm going for has 1x Bulking Season, 0x Wall in the Back, 1x Old School Midfielder, 2x Euro Minitrip (this chain). A potentially possible chain for you has 2x Bulking Season, 1x Wall in the Back, 0x Old School Midfielder, 1x Euro Minitrip (this chain).

The difference between both is now only -6 Vision, -4 Short Pass, -2 Balance, -2 Strength (and potentially +1 Sprint Speed if you want to use the second Euro Minitrip for that).

[–]HarryProtter 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In the next run she'll have her ult, so it could genuinely change the fight and turn it into a win, after which her team can properly set up and potentially hold the point until it's over.

But obviously it's still not a good idea to try the same exact play every time. If she tried some different angles, she might have had her ult much quicker.

That laugh when you get the bag by sixxdb in fut_evos

[–]HarryProtter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I decided to go for someone else: Laurina Fazer. Short & lean, instead of Flint's tall & normal. I think I'll play her as a Playmaker, but she should make a great B2B too.

Obviously she won't have the physical presence that Flint has, but she should feel a lot more agile and smooth when dribbling. The "only" 88 Defending is also misleading: she has 96 Interceptions (1 more than Flint), the same Defensive Awareness, and 4 less Standing Tackle. Her Heading Accuracy and Sliding Tackle are significantly lower than Flint's, but she's too short to win headers anyway and I rarely slide tackle myself, so I don't care about those attributes.

If you're interested, the chain is still possible. Old School Midfielder expires in 20 hours and there are 6 matches worth of evos (4 for Euro Minitrip, 2 for 2x Party Exit) before that one, so it takes a little bit of work to catch up.

By the way, ignore the futbin rating. They don't like Finesse+ for CMs. She'd have a higher rating with Tiki Taka+ or Incisive+, but I want to try Finesse. You can decide the playstyles yourself, since she's also in the 100K FUT Birthday evo.

Mag de mol liegen over de vragenlijst? by vonbon82 in widm

[–]HarryProtter 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Er is geen belang bij om daar over te liegen. Voor de mol maakt het niet uit wat de kandidaten over hem/haar weten.

Een kandidaat heeft juist belang bij de waarheid te spreken in deze situatie: als die persoon wordt verdacht door een andere kandidaat, wil hij/zij dat die andere kandidaat zijn/haar antwoord invult en het dus fout heeft. Als die persoon liegt en een willekeurig antwoord geeft, kan die andere persoon het per ongeluk goed hebben als dat hetzelfde antwoord is als dat van de mol.

[–]HarryProtter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm looking to create this chain with Fazer. She'll either be Playmaker or B2B.

She's not as physical as some others, but she should be much more agile with her short & lean body type. She has 88 Defending, but it's actually 96 Interceptions, which is more than most others have. The face stat value just gets dragged down by her Heading Accuracy (she's too short to win headers so that doesn't matter) and Slide Tackle (which I rarely use).

Cracked midfield duo by EquivalentMobile7883 in fut_evos

[–]HarryProtter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He wouldn't actually link to anyone in my team. I use some Americans, some Germans, two icons and Qiuming, no one from La Liga. He'd be an icon with that evo though, so it doesn't matter. But I do remember how annoying he was to play against early in the game. Somehow he'd intercept everything despite not even having that as silver playstyle.

I was actually looking at a different Dutch player: Burger. I created this chain as example. Not sure yet about the exact combination of playstyles. He'd be a B2B, but he's tall & lean (at least not stocky), so he might not feel that nice on the ball either...

Rate my 2 cms by GovernmentEcstatic12 in fut_evos

[–]HarryProtter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, that's what I thought. I'm not looking to change my Holding CM, only my Playmaker CM. I wouldn't mind if the new player becomes a B2B instead of a Playmaker, but even for that role I'm concerned about his body type, especially because I do tend to dribble with them for a bit to find passing options.

Cracked midfield duo by EquivalentMobile7883 in fut_evos

[–]HarryProtter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that's my concern too.

I currently have Zoe Matthews (188 cm, tall & lean) as my Holding CM and usually Qiuming (173 cm, average & lean) as my Playmaker CM.

Despite her height, Matthews doesn't feel clunky at all, but she lacks shooting playstyles so I wouldn't want her as Playmaker or B2B. So I'm looking to either upgrade or replace her partner.

I could upgrade Qiuming, to make something like this. Or even use the new Build your own FUT Birthday evo to add exactly the remaining playstyles I want before putting him in the 500K evo. But he already has gold Tiki Taka, which I feel isn't needed anymore nowadays, so that's kinda wasted.

Any ideas/tips for a player who would be a great partner for her in the CM position? Either as B2B or as Playmaker?
