Earlier this week I was cruising in Div3 rivals, using a gold squad for evolutions. I got the rewards upgrade and then BOOM, despite all ping being the same, the ganme changed. The method I was using to defend no longer worked, my attackers stopped making runs and immediately would just hide behind defenders.
One of the craziest things I noticed was that when playing out of the back, I would see the opponents attackers just miraculously jump through/in front of my midfielders to intercept the ball and my passing animation from my defenders got super slow. This went on for like 5-6 games before I gave up.
I would love for EA to explain how across that sample size, that it must have been the players skill or tactics? They were all playing with diff teams and formations etc.
This is the game deciding I was done winning for the day....
I'll upload the replays soon
