FIFA 14: breaking down

Hi! My name is Kokuana. And no, this is not my real name. This is my gamer name. And what do I play? Unless you don’t know how to read or usually skip the part where you read the title, here is the answer…. I play FIFA.
FIFA is one of the most wonderful, addictive (in a good way) and fun games that recent history has seen.
But today…. and in the next few days/weeks/months and hopefully years I won’t be here to talk about the history of this game but to tell you how you can improve at it!
Yes, you read it right! I’ll try to teach you how to be a really good FIFA player. Pay attention to my words…. I don’t promise to make you the best player…. there always will be someone better than you and first step…. you have to admit it!
My “specialty” (let’s call it this way) is FIFA ULTIMATE TEAM! A brilliant and well design game mode although the shitty EA servers. You may wonder:” Who is this guy that tells us that is going to make us better FIFA players and that claims that his “specialty” is UT?”
Let me answer: I’m a med student that in his rare free time enjoys a good game of FIFA UT! My current record it’s 101-5-8! Yes I only have 101 wins! I have life out of the game! As I told you before I’m a med student and that is my number 1 priority!
Nevertheless I already won all that there was to win in FIFA UT online and something’s more than once.
Now let’s begin the really fun part!
For today I’ll start to #3 tips that right away will help you… at least it worked with me.

#1. Forget that to win you have to have world star players!
In my game experience having world class players may not help you as much as you think. Having  Cristiano Ronaldo down at the left wing will make you attack more in that side of the pitch and, therefore, will make you more predictable (this is one topic that we will discuss later on). If we have a really good player we tend do use it more often than our other players! But keep in mind… real football and FIFA UT are made of 2 teams with 11 players each running after a ball so…. use all of your players!

#2. Find a team that you feel comfortable with!
To win you don’t have to have an all rare gold team of BPL, La Liga or Serie A players! A lot of us win Division 1 with Korean players…. Portuguese League players (by the way… wonderfull league in UT). You have to have an all round good team!
You have to have defenders, midfielders and attackers! And these 3 parts have to balance each other! You won’t win nothing with a crazy good attack and with a bullshit midfield or defense!
So balance is key!

#3. Find your playing style!
What’s good for a friend of yours may not be good for you! Playing a possession type or a counter-attack type of football is not for everyone! Each and everyone has their own set of skills and abilities that should use to empower them as good FIFA players! The same applies to player cards! Having a Lionel Messi up front may not be as helpful for you than having an …. Antonio Cassano! Don’t be influenced by what others say to you…. Use your head and find out what suits you the best!


That’s it for today! Like and share if you want to read more helpful tips! Thanks!
