Nobody ever said that.
You're right. It's been heavily implied rather than explicitly stated.
No it's not. You're taking criticism of your claims as an implication that the ai is perfect. We might just be implying that you're not taking all factors into consideration when critiquing the forecheck and other a.i. anomalies.
If you could actually provide an in-game example of what you see as egregious ai activity, then maybe we could get somewhere.
No, you're just failing to understand my argument. There isn't a proper FC to execute here. That's been my argument from the start. I don't know why this hasn't been understood yet. I've made this abundantly clear that my issues with the forechecks is that they are for the most part fictional. How do you judge "mistakes" while executing a flawed and fictional forecheck lol?
@Limp_KidzKitTheir argument is more it's how the game is designed adapt when you and I are saying the way it is designed is not congruent with hockey.

100% which is why I don't get why we have to review this every time someone like us posts. We're not here to discuss skill-based issues with the game. We're here to offer our opinion on how the game is played and why the game is played the way its played.
I don't think many appreciate being told how to play the game or why you're "wrong" for posing a question like "why are my two AI forwards on top of each other on the post during a 3-on-2?" as that's an extremely valid question and is an easy example of the AI failing to execute simple hockey plays that should be corrected for the betterment of the game regardless of skill level.
It's actually one of the bigger fallacies of the "video always helps" mantra because discussions naturally devolve into "skill issue" nitpicking and we lose the focus of the main point of the thread or video. Video SHOULD help us discuss topics, but many times it ends up leading to less than constructive conversations to no fault of anyone really. It's just what happens when you're able to break everything down frame by frame. That's why I always prefer to keep discussions as high-level as possible. If we can agree on high-level approaches to offense vs defense, or implementing correct forechecks, or how (insert feature here), then video might be able to be used to supplement a point but too often it becomes the main point of the video and turns into a "thumb trial" than simply an additional piece of context.

You are stating it much better than my caveman hockey brain can. A game of sixes doesn't make it any better either. You don't have to adapt to an AI that doesn't get open. However you still have to deal with the terrible way the puck interacts with sticks especially when it is controlled by someone players should not be able to tank pokechecks and stick lifts while standing still which they currently can.
