so this change does absolutely nothing against the causes of LI being too strong.

Well it somewhat does.
As I said, this change is not made specifically against LI, but it aims to see more balanced teams around. That means: you should not be stuck with 1 strategy only. In this moment, though, the dominante strategy is LI, so the result of this change is that LI will be penalized. Let's say that tomorrow R&G will be the dominant strategy, this new rule will fight against R&G dominance. This is made to avoid a large dominance of 1 tactic (doesn't matter which one) and enforces manager to try different things.
Honestly, I don't see a downside on this change.

I don't like the guess your opponent tactic bonus either. Pick the right defense/offense to beat your opponent is the right thing to do and not have a guess game.
To me it sounds like you have no idea how to balance the tactics and you have to use shortcuts rather than address the problem.

- To more in depth tactics and possibly alter the LI domination, you will be able to guess your opponent strategy, giving you a boost.

I just got done coaching a team ina tourney, we won two games today and have two tomorrow.

Knowing, guessing and preparing for a teams tactics does in fact happen and help in RL bball. At different levels, different tactics are better. so it can be guessed the most likely, but not 100%...

If you guess wrong and prepare wrong, or they pull out something you rarely see and haven't prepared (like certain zone style..box 1, zone press vs. full press, etc etc....different types of offence.... yo ucan get burned.

I think this new feature adds heaps of realism and a layer of interesting depth to the game play...we shall see as they roll it out though.


for the first time in bb history, i agree with you

When you guess/prepare right you use the right tactics to beat your opponent ? refs don't give you one more player on offense ?
Why give a bonus when a good GE should be enough ? You know your opponent will play LI you use 2-3 defense and you hope your defense will be good enough to stop him. Not pray to have a little bonus to change the game.

I must say I'm a huge fan of the transfer list and injury reports that have been added! I've been hoping to see something like that for a while, and glad I don't have to click on each team to see what players they have for sale anymore.

Yes, the new league overview is great.


When you guess/prepare right you use the right tactics to beat your opponent ? refs don't give you one more player on offense ?
Why give a bonus when a good GE should be enough ? You know your opponent will play LI you use 2-3 defense and you hope your defense will be good enough to stop him. Not pray to have a little bonus to change the game.


Here's a little tip:
Don't use 2-3 to defend against an inside offense - it does approximately the same job as a M2M (bar blocking shenanigans on your part).
Use 2-3 if you want a rebounding advantage and don't have to fear an outside offense from your opponent.
