ZaZ - Winter 0.26

Just some micro-optimization to Winter 0.2.
Player instructions are:
- Tackle Harder all
- Make More Runs for CMs, Ws, and CHFs.






Below is the light version to use when a match is under control, with the goal of avoiding cards and saving energy. My personal match plan is:
- Normal condition: Winter 0.26
- Winning by 2 goals, or trying to avoid conceding: Balanced mentality
- Winning by 3+ goals: Winter Light

@ZaZ Which tactic gave you a better score in your tests, this one or the strikerless?

Same tackle harder for everyone and More FWD runs for FWs, Ws, and CMs?

79 points congratulations  !! I love your tactic @ZaZ

Well done!!! When playing away against teams like Manchester City or Liverpool, should I adjust my mentality from attacking to balanced?

First match with this tactic

If a player gets a red card, who should I change?

Yes, exactly that.

Thank you! I am actually really glad this version got more points than strikerless, because it is such a waste to have to retrain or discard all strikers...

It should do well even against those teams, but if you want to avoid conceding goals, go Balanced.

Thank you for testing!

Strikers go first, but keep in mind you can manually change "tackle harder" to "ease off tackles" if players get yellow card.

More Direct passing directness, and Much Lower defensive line.

A much lower defensive line is indeed necessary at the moment, as we've conceded many goals from over-the-top through balls.

thank you...i know it is fun and whatever, we can not fight against the match engine, but for me it is kind sad a football without any striker in the team.

Can you share your suggestion for set pieces?

You can use zaz set piece.

Early signs are promising, I'm also one of the top teams in "xG underachievers" table. There have been at least 3 matches where we drew while completely destroying our opponents.

Good work.

@ZaZ love your work mate. Any player instructions? I’m on console. I’m excited to test this

Player instructions are:
- Tackle Harder all
- Make More Runs for CMs, Ws, and CHFs.

this tactic along with the zaz set pieces is performing way better than the void..

Really good tactic, much better than your 0.2 tactic. It creates lots of chances, and with the right strikers it’s deadly. Impressive — keep up the good work.

Thank you, and have fun!

@ZaZ is there a way I can see the set piece tactics? I’m on console so I can’t download them

Ohh, I will add it after I finish the next experiments.

@ZaZ Where is the Winter Light tactic?

should i use opposition instruction with this or leave it blank?

Itsyaboy420 said: should i use opposition instruction with this or leave it blank? Expand

I just leave it blank, but they might give some advantage if used properly.

if i remove the invite crosses and step up more will it reduce the tactic performance?

Itsyaboy420 said: if i remove the invite crosses and step up more will it reduce the tactic performance? Expand

I tested drop off more, step up more, and balanced, and results were inconclusive, so I picked the one that looked the best. Would need to test here to know for sure, but I can only upload two tactics per 24h, and next in the list is Autumn. Same thing about invite crosses.

Is that going to do anything without also removing Get Stuck In ?
