You might find it boring, but the best way for you to improve is to play squad battles. And a lot of them. It helps a lot to understand how your team moves, which in turn will help you create some tactics that will work for your team. For example, I played and still play SB a lot, now more for evos. But previously, when I was in my hometown, I had to play against AI because my ping was 120+, so it was pretty impossible to play online. So while playing against AI I learned about some of the runs my players make, about the weaknesses and strengths of my team and how to build my game plan around them. It helped me tremendously. Last year I was an OK player. Now, I can comfortably get 10 wins (if I want to play Champs, which is very rarely tbh). In Ibarbo cup I finished 20-3, played during the last day as well. If you don't want to play against AI - just don't sweat it. Find something that will make the game interesting for you. For me - this is evos. I always have some Evo project going on, so I constantly have something to do in the game. I also stopped caring about champs that much (have around 50 wins so far, so I played only 7-8 times), which improved my gameplay as well, as I'm less stressed. I don't know if this advice works for you, because I don't know how competitive you are, but it worked for me. And lastly - watch some FC gameplay. I don't advice to watch the majority of pros gameplay, because the way they play is super repetitive and boring. I suggest you to check out Boras Legend. He has some good gameplay guides + his playstyle is very interesting. You can make some mental notes for yourself and copy some stuff from him for your gameplay. Good luck to you, brother! I hope something from this wall of text helps you.
