Bumpier yet more fun ride to Div1
I've been pushing div1 for a few months now using Possession Game 3atb (and using a CMF instead of AMF, orchestrators make fantastic runs there).
Now with SA gone I expected it to be a smoother experience (I was getting to Div1 with about 70% winrate before this update).
It actually ended up being harder. What changed, defending was harder. Through balls seem more broken this update for whatever reason. And with my formation, it's too much (pretty sure it was buffed to make Attacking Surge seem broken too)
When I started defending Through balls better, I was leaving too much space in the midfield for long shots (which also seem broken, must've conceded about a dozen 25 yard longshots).
But it was overall way more fun. I was genuinely learning and just felt like I was getting sharper and better throughout the run (compared to the demented nonsense that is playing against SA)
I had zero issues with my attack. Scored beautiful goals. But defending just felt like I was playing at a disadvantage.
