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? Improving the staff does not make any sense. It also seems to me that the goals fall in the same way, why?

    Thanks for the feedback on this. Hopefully, we'll see the training camp return in the future. I was kinda surprised at how many requests we got for it.

    I’ll see if I can record some lol. I’m only commenting this because I’m kinda between on this. I see more a mix of the actual game play. 

    some games my guys are smooth bounce off hits can snipe then the very next game it’s like they can’t hit the broad side of a barn. 

    anyhow. Back to this thread. I have a pretty stacked team and always play on superstar and win 98% of the time. With that said, I’ll take an L if I play bad or make bad passes and turn it over. 

    what I see the most now is what I just had happen. Brand new fresh line.. I have a 95 Gretzky (oh and I’m playing sb against an 84 team on superstar) my other fwd pokes the AI. And Gretzky left early. I hit him with a pass eh he just is crossing the red line. The closest opponent is 83 Alex debrinicat probably 5-6 body lengths away. He hawks Wayne down and steals the puck from behind turns gets clocked by my other fwd, bounces off…. I then poke check it he loses puck yet somehow keeps it passes to a dude whom I hit again they trip up but still keep the puck and shoot and top shelf against a 92 markstrom lol. 

    so yea. I don’t mind it being difficult but at times it’s like borderline and past unfair of an advantage they give the ai. Sure make them good. Make em fast. Make them pass the puck well. Blah blah but if someone is also good, plays good hockey, yet EA allows the AI to do * that’s not even realistic that’s where it should stop. 

    net front battles is a key example. A user can lose the puck so damn fast yet heaven forbid you have that in your zone you won’t get it back often. They stick lift non stop or something but I can have 3 dudes there and get possession and before I can even click the trigger to pass their one dude is already stealing it and knocking my guys down lol. 

    again, usually I can route them by being patient, rag the puck a little bit, pass back and do well but there are some games were the AI is on god mode where it’s impossible. There is no way the AI should score 3-4 goals on 13 shots and me have 36 and might score 1 with their goalie looking like Hasek all game saving shot while spinning on his head haha. 

    I just laugh now.
