the current state of H2H

every game it’s bunch posts, trips, QB roll out cheese, stretch. man i come out of half of them victorious but it is so BORING to play over and over and over

Yeah dude the game is cooked. literally the worst madden for pack odds, competitive play and balanced content. good riddance to EA

The game is absolutely terrible. Guys literally running the same play all game even when you stop it. This is the worst Madden in a long time. They literally didn't give a single shit about this year

Yeah it's pathetic I have 20 super bowls and still found it boring even after winning a lot of them

I'm done for a couple weeks

Anybody still playing H2H?

i think it’s all NPCs lol, bad coding and YouTube made it easy for the low iq spectrum of mut community, and these 6-1/doublepost/rpo boys are running rampid.

So I’m gonna get attacked because I’ve admitted recently to running a cheese scheme, but that wasnt the case as of 2 weeks ago.

played sim, mixed it up a ton, didn’t run a meta defense but then came to the realization that 1/20 games that I played, would I play someone similar. The game was incredibly frustrating, didn’t enjoy it at all, so decided to just start running my RPO scheme. 
 

I only play h2h during the week to build up coins to improve my team so me and my buddies can run squads on the weekend.(Run a completely different scheme in squads, much more sim style) If the point of the game is to win, then why put myself at a disadvantage by trying to play sim?..

as has been stated, and I’ve said it for years, YouTube and Twitch have destroyed this game. Too easily to go online and find the new meta. gone are the days of having to lab and grind to figure out a scheme. 
 

gameplay wise, and EA greed wise, this is the worst spot the game has ever been. I’ve been playing since the beginning of MUT when it came out as DLC after launch and it’s terrible now. Between absolutely atrocious pack odds, terrible rewards, all the pre-lits - having to buy cards that counter the pre-lits, meta offenses, something has to change.

It's always cheese. The cheese format just changes throughout the year. That's Madden, don't play if you don't like it. Competitive online will always be what's current meta. Sports, shooters, doesnt matter.

Ive ran the same playbook all year, and the same one I've used for 5 maddens. I'm used to it, know it in and out, and can be competitive. Denver offense with a lot of single back runs and double/triple TE sets. Even so I barely play H2H because it's the same thing every year with meta cheese.

Also - quick QB boot is one of the best ways to combat cheese defense blitz 🤷‍♂️ that why you don't like?

The game is terrible with imbalanced abilities and stupid X factors, the make or break madden was clearly a break but that doesn’t mean EAs gonna change anything lol

It's always one guy with the "don't play if you don't like it" stuff. And no, competitive online won't "always" be like that so people shouldn't accept it. The game is stale, boring and abilities make it worse. It needs to change

i don’t like it because i set a QB contain, a AB spy and set curls to 25 and yet they still can roll out and take off with the QB or throw a corner right at the 25 yard point and still have a wide open player. it is a broken  mechanic and forces my defence to not actually play the assignment i gave them

I personally don't enjoy the H2H, so I don't play it much. It's just that simple lol

Instead of all that you could just take your lurk assist user LB and cover the QB sprint out 🤷‍♂️
