Squad Battles Are Awful

Has to be the worst gameplay out there. Jogging simulator, pass side to side simulator. Awful experience every time I play a game. Doesn't matter if it is semi pro all the way to ultimate. The only difference is the harder difficulties are just as beatable and uncompetitive, but they'll just do something random and physically impossible every now and then

It's such a bad game mode. I play games, am 5-0 up, and having a terrible time watching the ai do everything they can to keep the ball. No intention to actually try and win the game. They literally stop, jog in a direction, stop, lob pass across the pitch (usually back to a full back) and then start the cycle of boredom again. Every game feels like 60%+ possession to the ai. Like who designed that? Who was programming that mentality in the ai and thinking 'players are going to love watching the ai pass sideways and backwards)

I genuinely finish every squad battles games hating the experience. Just awful. No challenge to it, just awful game mode. 

They need to improve it, simply by making the ai want to play forward and be able to risk losing the ball. You know, actually playing the game instead of some weird version of king of the hill that only the ai is playing.
