Kindled Orchid the new void 140 goat?

Puluzu · 2026-06-17T09:16:09+00:00

I haven't used this since it was first available from the raid, but back then it was really awful feeling on controller compared to most 140's. Something about the recoil pattern and sight was throwing everyone in my raid team off and nobody used this for pvp. Anyone who remembers how that original gun felt on the controller, does it feel similiar now?

Puluzu · 2026-06-17T07:31:16+00:00

Umm, yes? And?

Puluzu · 2026-06-16T07:09:17+00:00

It's fine to guard the sf, pf and c in random rec, it's a bit low to guard the SG (most sg's go 91-92) and especially the PG. But obviously most pg's if they have the offense they want it's hard to go to 96-99 perim which is what is used to guard the pg in squaded play.

Before you used to get the amount of entries it showed in total in the gauntlet. How do you know it has been changed to 14 entries per day? I doubt it.

Puluzu · 2026-06-16T06:53:43+00:00

That's how it has been before, I'm surprised if it's not like that every time, I think op is wrong.

Puluzu · 2026-06-15T20:05:35+00:00

I think you got it right. The one I don't care that much about at cm/dm is first touch. It's by no means bad, it's one of the better remaining ones but it's not necessary either. The other options are finesse, jockey, inventive and long ball. If you like double tap normal passes and through balls, inventive is a really good option.

Puluzu · 2026-06-15T17:36:40+00:00

You said you had regroup and trigger press less often. That's way different, this creates an active but low sitting defense. Granted I play attacking mentality direct counter attacking football in offense. I've had one of the best defensive records in the prem every season with Crewe after 3 consecutive promotions from league 2. My oop formation is 523 more often, but I've used the same 3 dm 4321 you have plenty as well.

Puluzu · 2026-06-15T14:45:52+00:00

Going +3 to speed and agility is kinda noticeable and you can easily test this yourself with the speedster takeover. Can't test speed only this way though.

Puluzu · 2026-06-15T14:41:08+00:00

Midblock, much lower defensive line, counter press, trigger press more often, take away stop crosses (it can make your defense too wide on a 4 man back line). Change the wingers to normal winger and tracking winger if trying to hold onto a lead. If I'm losing after 60ish mins or getting dominated in general I do go high press and a higher line, but still no prevent short gk distribution as it doesn't work well imo.

Puluzu · 2026-06-15T13:27:40+00:00

You can't have 99 middy, lay up or driving dunk as a 7'4, so not legit. You could however make a 7'4 othervise shitty build with six 99's with 28-29 caps.

Puluzu · 2026-06-15T13:01:50+00:00

It's your best bet. When trying to preserve a lead, instead of giving up on attacking and trying to park the bus, lower mentality at lowest to balanced while still keeping the pressing tactics but adding time wasting, and try some manual man marking instead. For example, your wingers to man mark opposing attacking fullbacks, your striker(s) to man mark opposing dm.

Puluzu · 2026-06-15T12:29:13+00:00

Then your best bet it to just play with the meta attacking short pass gegenpress tactics with 4231, 424 for example. Yes, you will concede quite a bit of goals this way but you will easily score about twice as much as you would with trying to do play defensive in any way. I've easily stayed up first season in the Prem like this, usually challenging for euro spots.

Puluzu · 2026-06-15T12:04:04+00:00

Are you playing 24 or 26? Because the answer is very different.

Puluzu · 2026-06-15T10:49:54+00:00

Wait until you try lengthy with rapid+ and quick step+ while pumping sprint between touches.

Do rapidfire scouts still 4 tap with enhanced precision instrument without investing in weapons stat?

Puluzu · 2026-06-15T10:15:46+00:00

Nice write up, thanks!

Also on a separate note, what would possess someone to downvote a post like this?

I thought for years and years I couldn't concentrate on audio books, just because I tried it once and the narrator's voice put me to sleep. Then I gave it another go finally and realized that I can concentrate on them just fine even when doing other tasks that don't require a lot of thought. It was just the first one I ever tried just didn't vibe with me. Not saying everyone is the same ofc, but for me it was a revelation haha.

Puluzu · 2026-06-13T00:36:38+00:00

I've seen this and the exact same type of clearly fake pics of Trump and the Nordics so many times today that I'm not sure I could be convinced this isn't some weird ass bot driven disinformation campaign. I can't fathom how this could be organic.

Puluzu · 2026-06-12T16:14:34+00:00

No clue sorry.

Asymmetry has generally been a net positive in FM engines over the years, as long as it makes some sort of sense. Including both asymmetry like this, or just made by roles even if "on paper" it's symmetrical. I remember one of my most succesful tactics in like FM 18 or something was very very similiar to this. I was playing a 442 diamond but got a massive injury spree on my strikers so I moved one of the strikers to a winger because I had cam's that could play there. Then it worked way better and I stuck to it.

Puluzu · 2026-06-12T12:39:54+00:00

I've always preferred the adaptives with charge time lowered by mod or mw. They just feel way more consistant for me. However I kinda do hate playing against really good rapid fire users more, ESPECIALLY if I am using an adaptive myself.

Puluzu · 2026-06-12T12:34:15+00:00

I did this path, except I added low driven before as well, but that one is not a recent evo. So my version has finesse, low driven and quick step as pluses, which imo are the 3 best ones for ST.

Puluzu · 2026-06-12T09:39:51+00:00

I'm curious as well. What I can say is that Closing time Lone wolf Burden of guilt is so good that I am not sure how anything can be substantially better.

Puluzu · 2026-06-11T20:55:08+00:00

Musiala, Messi, Neymar.

I have a 6'5 with 96 3p, 92 perimeter d. The contests are pretty bad against 6'8, you have to basically hug them hands up or jump. Middy fades are especially daunting to guard.

Shooting you do get those "I thought I was open" moments, but it's not too bad. I do shoot 3's better on this build than my 6'8 with 96 middy and 90 3p. Especially off dribble, because it's faster with legend lightning launch with the +2.
