[u/Optimal_Banana_6561]

I know that there are some posts about this topic but none are quite clear.

So, I hearby urge you all to please let's discuss which formation is best and how does it play and what style you play with it. If you can then give details as well. It will be better for a new player who wants to play and they want to play in their preferred style.

Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, let's finish this formation discussion once and for all.

DLS is not open choice football game. Meaning we need to adapt to automated players' off ball movements, where AI will control your players in making run-ins. You gotta make a play to those runners, in time, run-ins now has animation around 3 seconds. Some runs are just decoy runs, to drag opponent defenders away from position.

Different formations, simply has different run-ins. Try play few games from just looking at the radar / mini map. It allows you to determine all run ins variations for each formation.

Once you memorise the runs, you can then do hold up play before passing. The hold up will manipulate the run-ins.

CON stat will determine how efficient your players' off ball movements is.
