It's true what you mentioned. It's a small effect so we can't count on it to guarantee us anything. Anyway, you played long enough to see alot of undeserving semi active teams beat strong active teams right? We can't beat what the game engine wants.
For training SAs, I think it not about low level. It's about world class training and choosing the drill which the players has the lowest skill. I followed one of the guides. I can't rem which one it was now. I think I used press the play which was my only world class at that time and I used it on attackers with very low defensive skills. I only bought 2 18 year old FTs attackers this season due to budget constraints early this season.

I just read the full thread. My best player is an AMC but almost never performs like he usually does during big games. Semis and finals. He assists during big games. I was beginning to think the script eliminates the best players for both teams leaving the game up to the others. Or the script already selected the positions for both teams that will be instrumental in the game and the win is based on those selected players. Just a thought.
Same thing when I won back to back Champions League finals, the first one 4-1, I had 2 defenders score and 1 defensive midfielder and one midfielder, my player with 164 goals in 147 games only assisted twice.
Then the next season in the final, we won 1-0 in the 88th minute from my DC “Mucci” he actually performed amazingly in the huge matches

might be. My dc ended up scoring 2 yesterday, one from a pretty long range. I was like, hey, what's happening! 😂🤣
In semis and finals tactics aren't exactly creating a differentiator. Coz the team who gave me a close fight yesterday in cup final is 9 points behind me in the league. Lost the league games pretty handsomely. Normally he plays too attacking, so its easy to break on counters against him.
Same in SF of CL, we played the same teams (me not having a key player in my best midfielder in the 2nd game), the same tactics too, mostly, and we had drastically different results with very similar teams.
If that's the case, then it probably good to have a few key players just in case with the rest of the team not too far off. Max and myself experienced the DC scenario you mentioned a few seasons back. Both games in finals. Both of us won 1-0 with DC scoring only goal and mom. What are the chances, its just probably the same script.
Gymx6 works the best in training a SA.thanks me later
I m still around, LOL!
I have played the game for a few years and have seen many times the SA icon appear above my players wherever they make that vision pass, deadly free kicks etc, and I hereby summarise for this debate ----
1. SAs are important. Nordeus programmers aren't going to waste time making those cute icons floating about wherever a special skill is used.
2. Players hidden real abilities are even more important. I have players without SAs who are often man of the match and scores lots of goals and make lots of assists, season after season, and are often Cups top scorers and assists.
