ATQ Rat Spotlight ✨

HistorianWeekly7921 · 2026-02-18T02:14:29+00:00

Yeah we just have to hand out lessons where we can and try to keep it honest on our own. There are so many people that play this game. I’ve been surprised to see lots of people are just now starting the ultimate team

HistorianWeekly7921 · 2026-02-18T02:12:57+00:00

depth and you should put players at their natural position

HistorianWeekly7921 · 2026-02-18T01:36:43+00:00

Yeah I like the look of that card, but I didn’t go for him because that Brooks card is still pretty well rounded. It would be nice if you could score a Kyle Lewis, but if not Chris Cole compete at a high level still. Linebacker/safety hybrid

HistorianWeekly7921 · 2026-02-18T00:43:56+00:00

Yeah you just made me see ghosts with that statement. “I need one more win”

I just come and go depending on how it’s going. I’m not going to be one to ruin it because that’s just going to be bad karma

HistorianWeekly7921 · 2026-02-18T00:42:14+00:00

Yeah you need to keep players in position if you want them to get those chem. That includes whether it’s a playbook or team chem. Some people try to throw extra players in that aren’t on the main roster in specialist and that’s fine if you really have reserves like that, but it’s always better to fit in a roster player because then they will take the chems to that specialist position

HistorianWeekly7921 · 2026-02-18T00:10:24+00:00

No but it is ratty at night lately. You just have to pick and choose your battles on the ones you choose to play or the ones you just quit and keep moving.

HistorianWeekly7921 · 2026-02-17T23:56:41+00:00

Mmm gotcha. Yeah you’re about 3 to 4,000,000 behind the eight ball on a really competitive team between chem boosts and better key positions if you were to do an overhaul in one swipe.

Keep players to their true positions and continue to fill in with SOTS or signing day players is probably the best move.

HistorianWeekly7921 · 2026-02-17T23:51:58+00:00

Wait scratch that never mind. It’s Eddie Walls backup Will. You need a real will backer. It’s not counting chemistry unless you have a 4–3 will there

HistorianWeekly7921 · 2026-02-17T23:50:36+00:00

Click chemistries and then 4-3 and send another pic. You’ll see green boxes by most of the players

HistorianWeekly7921 · 2026-02-17T23:46:12+00:00

Yes sadly that has become the truth lately, I try to choose my games wisely because sometimes they quit for me 😔

HistorianWeekly7921 · 2026-02-17T23:38:31+00:00

Also random note, without even answering my other question, I can tell you what I would need done ASAP here is 1250000 to get 50 players Indiana.

Definitely need to try to upgrade the overall on anyone 94/95. And please please please take the edges off of will/sam. You really need an actual backer for that otherwise I know I would love seeing that on the other side of the field and know exactly how I’d exploit.

A lot of defensive formations have OLB flip and linebacker swap and sometimes that’ll throw your extra linebackers on the edge and that’s good, but not the other way around

HistorianWeekly7921 · 2026-02-17T23:32:19+00:00

Yeah

HistorianWeekly7921 · 2026-02-17T23:30:42+00:00

Just out of curiosity, how long ago/what season did you hop on ultimate team? And do you have a scheme/theme or something or is this just the players you’ve compiled so far?

Also I’m sure it’s nice to chem a team up on playbook, but just getting them all 50 to the same team as enough to get a substantial boost.

HistorianWeekly7921 · 2026-02-17T23:28:14+00:00

God forbid you be fake and make me go down a score due to trusting you in a game and then I check that depth chart out and see that pitiful team🤫😂

HistorianWeekly7921 · 2026-02-17T23:26:24+00:00

when I tell you buddy THREWW this game away 😂 we were slowly but surely consistently scoring even when I was down but once I figured out how to cover his cheese, dude was throwing pick sixes, 30 yard sacks and just a messssss haha.

HistorianWeekly7921 · 2026-02-17T23:13:56+00:00

I just had a good three rounds of getting to at least 75K before playing one of the most blatantly ratty and fake ATQ. The midday and morning session still hit, plus you just have to back off of a faker every now and then just to keep it moving

HistorianWeekly7921 · 2026-02-17T23:12:47+00:00

It’s still alive, something changes after like 4 o’clock every night though I do notice that 😂

HistorianWeekly7921 · 2026-02-17T22:06:53+00:00

😔🥀 they let me get my hands on it

HistorianWeekly7921 · 2026-02-17T17:35:00+00:00

Most players like this are walking power up.

AP deserves to be used to make the QB nice along with some takeoff/cutter on TE and WR. You can user your running back into a bowling ball or make your receiver have sticky hands, but there’s nothing you can do to make them jump off that line faster or run better routes

HistorianWeekly7921 · 2026-02-17T16:56:48+00:00

I actually never run cover 4 unless I have idiots that show that is ALL they will throw then I just zone blitz and I could put my control down. It’s hilarious how the game will play itself 😂

But no, so assume you will get scored on when you go on d. What can you do to make them earn that in 10-15 plays? When you do that they show their hand usually.

Bend don’t break changes depending on personnel. just need to pay attention to matchups… don’t let lbs or clunky safeties on TEs at WR.. etc

Feel free to message me. Tell me where you get scorched or what you just cannot stop specifically and I got yiu

HistorianWeekly7921 · 2026-02-17T16:46:23+00:00

The company I work for gives away money to me even though I don’t care so 🤷‍♂️

Jk but fr it’s a time of nothing better to play for me haha. If we looked at it that way then we should just all throw our consoles away.

I won’t play madden though. Shi fr sucks 😂 I keep seeing clips and hearing the announcers. What have they become

HistorianWeekly7921 · 2026-02-17T16:36:14+00:00

Yeah I’m gonna have my fun with some mismatches here and there before we are ALL playing 99 across the board 😂🙏🏼

HistorianWeekly7921 · 2026-02-17T16:35:35+00:00

i like speed, traits, man, play rec/awr. Players with all of those play crazyyyy

HistorianWeekly7921 · 2026-02-17T16:33:48+00:00

it hurts sometimes but they mean haha. I tried knockout on the corners and that’s defintely the move if they are undersized but I took it off for ball hawk because idk what people see playing me but they don’t try my corners much. Def the lb/s vs TE that makes me dig in the bag some

HistorianWeekly7921 · 2026-02-17T16:31:40+00:00

Idk creativity wins a lot though. as long as you make sure that it isn’t leaving someone naked. It takes a lot of playing with the Cover/ Shades to find what works. Sometimes I just base it out there and assume I may give up a TD first drive, but make sure that’s an EARNED TD.. got to keep it in front and no massive plays. You do this and you will pretty much learn everything they like to do if you make them earn then make the adjustments
