I think I know what's going on

Do you get your ass man advice saying with better quality we could of won this?

I'm not too sure Nordeous are smart enough to catagorize token buyers/non-token buyers/not using saved tokens.
If they could do that then the bugs this game has would be gone

No. Do you? He says many stupid things, but not that.

Alright, let's say Nordeus is not punishing me for not spending tokens. Why then?

What does it mean "systems and tactics change from time to time"? How does the team that was rolling for the first half come to a dead stop like this? Am I supposed to start playing offside trap against teams with attacking midfielders now? Reverse the arrows? Throw away the table of counter formations?

I was prepared to make the argument that while I was enjoying myself and my success, others have been busy buying and training players and have caught up to me in quality. But when I failed to beat the 14th place team who is 8 Q points below me I knew it was not my opponents I was up against, but Nordeus.


It's not one bad match that makes me say Nordeus is killing me. One bad match can be a troll. Six bad matches is something else.

"Systems and tactics change from time to time". Perhaps. But I copied the formation that a guy in 3rd place used yesterday to clobber my opponent. I went with everyone at high morale (thanks to all the friendly wins) and rested. Could the wrong orders account for the difference? Again, it's not just one troll match that made me start this thread.

He has said it on my abondoned account once lol.

Systems and tactics change from time to time. Meaning that Nordeous will change the order of strongest and weakest formations. It does my head in when Nordeous decide 4-4-2 is the ultimate formation because what, Watford and Leicester have a few good counters. It's stupid, I know but I was killing the league with 4-5-1v with attacking short passing style and Nordeous decided to tank it. It took me a few games to realise "Normal mentality" was the new preferred order at the time. Now they've tanked that, the right arrow balance is the new thing for the time being depending on preferred mentality.

Having the right formation just isn't enough. I tell people this all the time but they never listen. I'm sick of people playing narrow diamond or 4-3-1-2 narrow and saying oh play mixed, or play down flanks, it makes no sense.
People post crazy orders like attacking, mixed passing, mixed style, high press, hard tackle, man mark counter attack?????
And then post on here saying why are they losing and blame Nordeous for messing with them personally.

Here is a basic formation and orders. An easy one.

4-1-2-1-2 narrow
Attacking
Short
Through middle
Own half
Zonal
Normal tackling
No counter
No offside

It is important you have a very good AMC.
If losing sub DMC for CM change to 4-3-1-2
Red arrows to full backs and AMC is important
Hard attacking, mixed passing, down middle, high press, hard tackle, zonal, no counter, yes offside trap.

I'm not saying that is the ultimate orders for the formation, but those are suitable for the formation.
