The game has surpassed me

I lose 5+ in a row so often now. I cant beat man, cant beat the loop. Running colts offense still. Cant bother to watch youtube.
I got plenty of avalanches on my team, havent caused much fumbles while my opponent makes me fumble like crazy. I cant stop anything. I really dont get it.

I do have a job now so I got less time for this but goddamn have I really turned this awful? Lol. It just sucks. Been playing MUT since 13. Never was this bad.

If you arent invested fully and up to date on counters to the glitch bs or meta it will be a tough time sadly.

yea I just havent bothered to look for the latest. It seems boring anyway. Just running glitch double passes, motions, runs with angry runs + tank etc. And on d its just 2 man under press or the loop.

The game indeed has surpassed me.

Perhaps its time to hang the cleats.

Honestly i dont play much h2h/online anymore in my older years unless im playing squads with my brother....the online sweat nonsense just aint worth the stress. I still enjoy building a team and working the market tho.

Form tackler and extra pop with avalanche and enforcer supreme is pretty hilarious. It nearly gives you green stick every time. They need angry runs, tank and truzz not to fumble

I find myself menu playing and solos this year.  Avoided H2H for the most part, though Ive tried the different promo events. Only one i had any success with was the draft event(no abilities).  I dont have the energy anymore to keep up with everything besides watching Zan's youtube videos lol. I turn 50 this month and its just not worth the stress levels to commit as much as needed.

No, you've proven your intellect exceeds the combined IQ of EA Tiburon.

It’s still RNG.  I been running that on almost all my DBs after my experience in this house rules and land multiple green hit sticks a game and get no fumbles.  The ones I do, they recover.  It’s a joke.  Meanwhile, my Adams with tank, angry runs, and freight train has fumbled more times than I can count of getting hit sticked.

I feel like MUT is way worse for people abusing the same meta than CUT. If CUT had the content of MUT it would be far more fun. Gameplay is better, variety of scheme is better, playbooks better. But MUT content is way better.

This mirorrs my thoughts exactly.

I pretty much dialed back all H2H this year.  Much less time consuming and stressful than to to try to keep up and only win every other game anyway.

YOU don't beat Man Press, your cards having the proper ability stack will do this for you; Double Me, Max Security or RAC `em Up will all help ensure your receivers are able to insta-win against Man Press attempts.  When it comes to forcing fumbles, you need Enforcer or Enforcer Supreme, Avalanche alone is not sufficient.

Instead of Colts offense, maybe you should consider taking a glance at the fEagles offense.  It should feel similar enough to Indy, although you will lose Double Post... however, yer gaining stuff liek MTN Y Post and better run game, which should help you move the ball.  Pay particular attention to Normal Y Off Close if you end up trying a new offense.

Calling Play Action passes should help to automatically pick up the majority (but not all) of those loop blitzes.  Or you want to double team the DT, ID the Mike (onto looping linebacker) and keep your RB in to block, that should also pick up the loop.

Thank you . I know its not just me now. I'm 48 BTW. Its very video gamey now. Remember , "If its in the game , Its in the game" ! Lol. I always loved that Madden was a very good simulation of the real thing. Not so much anymore. I don't play online a lot anyway. I love the team building part , blowing through challenges, and sniping in the auction house more these days anyway. Dudes online are ridiculously good. :D

I was in Colts too until I realized that this defensive meta shuts down colts. That's why so many people switched over to Eagles/Niners. My advice would be to practice NE playbook. Seems like U trips is good every year and probably wouldn't have any issues translating it over to Mut 26.
