Does team quality matter in ultimate team?
Does team quality matter in ultimate team? Lately it seems to me that the rating of the players doesn't matter, the 83 player will easily skate past the 94 defender. What's the point of all this? Imp...

Community ManagerThe better player isn't always the one with more shots. It's more about quality than quantity. You also need to read how your opponent is playing and take advantage their mistakes. For example, if you see someone taking a lot of shots from their D, most likely they're doing D to D passes. Set your strategy to tight point and intercept one of those passes for a breakaway. That could be the GWG and could mean they have less shots. Of course, there are bad shots that still score. That's also a part of real hockey. Just like teams winning with less shots. If your opponent is noticing any gaps in your play and is taking advantage of them, that's part of the skill in this game. I tend to focus less on how many shots I take and focus more on setting up better scoring chances.
@EA_Aljo ok, you're right, but it doesn't happen every second match that the opponent who has less than 5 shots per match wins. Moreover, the game is not about skill but patience. I understand that another user may have it differently, but why not make more of an online mode, for example an online career. or another build mode? The thing that annoys me the most about the game is that there is the same button for the wrist shot and slashing, and it is not possible to change the fact that the player is excluded instead of the stop. I don't like shooting with R3 I want it on the button so why is it unusable?

The team is aware of the issue with Hybrid controls. We'll have to wait and see if that's resolved.
We can agree to disagree about the game being more about skill than patience. Then again, having patience is also part of the skill of this game. There are those that patiently wait for their opponent to make a move before making theirs, for example.
Thanks for the feedback for an online career mode. You're welcome to post those ideas in the Game Suggestions forum here.
- ok, but the game is not very fair or realistic since when is the passive team not punished for their passivity, passivity is almost always punished in hockey.

Passivity is one way to play defence.
You might as well turn the question and say, heavy forecheck is almost always punished in hockey.
There need to be a perfect mix of them two, passivity when your opponent have good control of the puck and heavy pressure when you feel your opponent is under stress.
The key to success is to know when you need to be passive, thats a great skill, to respect your opponent with the puck.
No one can play offens 3*20.
