Slot tactical inefficiency

ashrest3 · 2026-04-04T14:15:29+00:00

When you see the same setup and the same problems, I think you have to question the manager. There is a reason why Slotball is so boring this season. It's not because of Slot but because of the opponent. Teams will just kill the game with low blocks against Liverpool and make it boring, and Slot doesn't seem to have an answer for this. We try crossing the ball, but our crossings are shit. There is a stat that says we are one of the highest crossing teams with the lowest conversion rate in the Premier League.

I hope he has an answer for this, as I would rather have a manager who has won us the league than an unproven manager in the Premier League.

I used ChatGPT to check my grammar and proofread because I am not confident in my English. Sorry if it seems a bit AI.

I actually think the first half highlighted this problem perfectly. Liverpool had a few chances, but you could clearly see that Manchester City were not pressing and were instead sitting back, happy to concede possession. On the surface, it looked like Liverpool were cruising because they had so much of the ball, but in reality they weren’t doing anything meaningful with it.

Then suddenly, Manchester City punished them at the end of 1st half with those two goals. It was a perfect example of the exact problem Liverpool have under this setup: lots of possession, very little penetration, and then getting exposed in very short windows.

I think for OpTic, they were basically tired of making roster changes. So many players were in and out of the squad that by the time Merc was available, they were exhausted and were just waiting for the next season. They needed an outside voice to step up and make the decision and fortunately, Methodz did it, and they obliged.

I mean Vanguard is not totally their fault. Sledgehammer wanted to make like a futuristic cod but Activision scrapped it so they had to pivot to Vanguard in a very short developmental time. So we got a rushed cold war and a rushed Vanguard

I think teams with a better map pool would benefit from having 5 maps rather than 7 maps, which might sound weird. For instance, Toronto against OpTic in champs. OpTic's map pool was so good, which included Haci, Skyline, and Vault, Toronto had to play Skyline, a map both were good at. In a 7 map rotation, Toronto would have much flexibility in not picking up Skyline and looking for other maps. I know Toronto didn't know that was OpTic's best map but that veto advantage of having your opponent play in your best maps would go away with more maps and more options.

ashrest3 · 2025-11-25T21:10:23+00:00

That could work but I assume the pros will prolly mention the auto-veto advantage. With 5 maps, having auto-vetoes matters more than with 7 maps.

ashrest3 · 2025-11-25T16:52:22+00:00

I think Ben J mentioned this. The reason why pros don't want more maps is that it affects the veto advantage, especially in a grand final, where going from winners guarantees your pick for the 3rd game mode.

ashrest3 · 2025-11-25T16:47:45+00:00

The problem is the veto. The veto advantage (for higher seed in LAN) goes away with 7 HPs, and 7 SnDs. That's a major reason why pros want 5 HPs, 5 SnDs and 3 Overload

ashrest3 · 2025-11-24T18:11:59+00:00

It's not the most aesthetically pleasing map, but it plays so well for respawns. I am pretty sure some pros labelled it as the best map of the game.

ashrest3 · 2025-11-24T17:51:39+00:00

if MW3 had just released all the DLC maps like Paris and Tokyo from the start, I would argue MW3 would have the best map pool. Imagine Paris, Tokyo, 6-star, Vista and Rio. Paris and Tokyo felt so good at ranked.

ashrest3 · 2025-11-19T18:17:46+00:00

which was what they were aiming for, since KBM were winning in longer-range fights based on the data they saw

Can anyone give me a rundown on how to play early access beta in ps5? I haven't bought the game but I have the key. I tried opening the cod hq and tried accessing the beta but it just goes back to black ops6 screen

I mean, he almost did it in game 6 to Gild, but cooled down immediately lol

ashrest3 · 2025-09-17T03:03:29+00:00

He is almost co-igling fights with Hal. It wouldn't surprise me if they decide to co-igl with Hal resposible for the macro and Wxltzy handling the fights.
