Strategy Transparency

I find it really inaccessible to really figure out how to properly take advantage of team strategies from the sliders to how aggressive you want your team to be. I like to play a slower neutral zone passing game but I can’t really translate EA strategies into my play style and I have had to adopt a on the rush style fast offense. 

I feel there’s a lot of nuance to strategies that we are missing. I know EA provides explanations and videos for offensive strategies but I think a deep dive into all strategies would help us all understand better.

    If you do full slider on shooting they always face the net. If you set it to cycle they face the point. 

    Block or don't block affects goalies most of the time. Set it to 0 block and not only does the goalie stop doing those animations where they look screened ur cpu will intercept pucks more at the point.

    Energy full

    Full slider on dumping the puck is the worst thing you can do as you will get trapped more in the neutral zone. Do 0 -2.

    For defense if you set it to 0 on hold line/pinch ur defense will literally just sit there when they could step up on loose pucks.

    Cycle/shoot on defense. If shoot is majority then defense will step up in slot for a one tee. Cycle they stay way up in the zone.
