@LordMudkip as you have noticed, other elements of tactics decide if you win.
for example:- 442A playing on wings + one-touch football is going to crush 433A or B playing on wings + one-touch football most of the time. Although 442B passing game + play possession against 433A or B playing on wings + one-touch football only works if certain conditions are met.
And when I'm talking about beginners, it happens that they choose 442A and play passing game + play possession or something similar, you can totally destroy them with 442B same tactics. So.. it's not really outsmarting them, it's just using their flaws in knowledge.
433A a bit more defensive formation, mostly used with midfielders helping the defence, playing on wigs, one-touch football, pressing - sit deep, defensive mentality - super effective combo versus stronger teams when they don't really push on the offence. noticed that experienced players play 4231 SOS against that.
433B is an offensive formation, should be used with midfielders helping strikers and pressing high up the pitch with attacking mentality. works best when opponent is trying to be a bit more on offence.

hey omicron and mudkip,
Iโm not sure that thereโs set formations and tactics that always work. I think a lot depends on how each manager plays those formations and tactics, and also what the overall relative strengths of the teams are. as O says, new managers donโt know what tactics work best with which formations.
I find attacking 433 and 442 work well if you're stronger than your opponent, esp. at home.
part of the fun of this game is trying to anticipate what an opponent will play, and then coming up with something to counter it.
or the other way is just to set your best team and tactics, and let your opponent respond.
anyway, you have a good chance to try out your tactics in our next crew league, omicron -
@phaultseberg i definitely will
the purpose of my topic is to find out how the elements of tactics work. let's say the opposing managers tactics are the same on different cases and you change only 1 variable and how does that affect the game. for example if you change from play possession to one-touch football. -

@Omicronwolf in the old version we used to play friendlies almost daily.
I tested to see if changing just one variable 10-20% (with my opponent exactly the same as the previous game) would influence the outcome of the game, and we found that it did -
@phaultseberg that's what's interesting. what do you say? is it the philosophy for everyone to find that out? or maybe people can share that?

Do you think 433B + Passing game + Play possession is a good combo?
Does it work against 433A + Wing Play? -
@omicronwolf As some people mentioned here there are several factors, that affect result of matches when you choose one or another tactic. For example: if you have poor squad than your opponent you should choose defensive tactics like 541, 5311, 451. If your squad is better than opponent's tactical schemes like 433, 343 or 352 will suit you better.
You should analyze your opponent better before match played. His squad, his played matches, career etc. There is no one or two magical tactic, that help you win all matches.

@andrei-popoviciu 4-4-2 or 4-5-1 is more effective, depends on the strength of your team. 4-3-3 B only in your home, 4-3-3 B against me have little chance of winning, even with a better team. I only use 4-3-3 A
