Veeky Forums plays Veeky Forums in the 6th match today at 3:30 Eastern, 12:30 Pacific (>implying they'll be on time)
Michael Campbell
haha time for 12-11
Oliver Baker
>H >R >E
Connor Watson
Is the defense fixed yet or will it be another goalfest?
Lucas Morgan
I've made sure to focus on defense much more for this time around
Brandon Peterson
So that's at 21:30 for Europe?
Lucas Ward
Yes, and 20:30 for our Mosleys
Robert Fisher
Thanks, hope we can get the three points against Veeky Forums today. To be honest we deserved to win or at least draw the last one after our holy roman comeback.
Lincoln Diaz
We need a win by 3 goals to have a good chance of making it through.
Asher Gomez
Are you the manager? If you wanna play three at the back, pls set the central as a stopper or halfback, don't leave a fucking sweeper like it's the 20s. All it does is break up the offside trap. Also mind the fucking flanks, you can't play just two wide players and have them only on attack. Also what the fuck was the point of three central forwards? All they did was impede each other and the wingers.
Tyler Nelson
Is our game the one after this one?
Adrian Ortiz
With this monster in our team we can do this and more.
Jaxon Sanders
Not gonna reveal anything about the new tactical export for paranoia of a sneaky opponent anticipating what we're going do, but I promise I've addressed our issues from last match.
Elijah Bailey
All we need is three > > >
Ethan Ramirez
>Veeky Forums 6-5 Veeky Forums broke the record for most goals in one game with 11, breaking several previous games on 10. Best possible way to kick this shit off that isn't a victory.
Dominic Lewis
I'm sure we also have the record of most goals without winning the match.
Josiah Walker
The >H >R >E was also the second player to score 5 goals in one match, and the first one to lose while doing so.
But seriously, our attack is GOAT, we just need to sort out the defence.
Juan Wood
who /hyped/ here?
Aaron Baker
>But seriously, our attack is GOAT, we just need to sort out the defence. Yeah the only way you're gonna fix that defense is by worsening the attack. Our formation basically kept 7 players camped in the opponent's half, that's why we saw a goal each time the ball went in each team's third.
Evan Richardson
>Veeky Forums first match >they make history
Juan Davis
Me t.b.h.
Jason Torres
More like /worried/. Last match was terrifyingly mismanaged.
William Scott
...
Jackson Evans
We can play without a sweeper and move some midfielders out wide to pressure the flanks. There are ways to stabilize this.
It also just occurred to me, that the 3-2-2-3 we played is basically a W-M system. We literally used a historical formation.
Carson Adams
And now we see why it went extinct.
Colton Butler
Don't break up Gaius and Aulus again. I'm pretty sure that's what fucked up our defense
Jacob Carter
Time to switch to 4-4-2!
Nicholas Wright
>the 3-2-2-3 we played is basically a W-M system Only it isn't, because we had wide middies playing offensively, three central forwards, a narrow defensive back and no defensive middies to cover for them. We rather played a VA formation.
Juan Scott
>fusing living people into one
I'm no wizard, user
Tyler Ortiz
Veeky Forums Cup related:
I've been wondering if there are any other games that are like this so that I could host my own. I know Football Manager is probably the best one, but I'm wondering if there's anything out there like it (I'm not too well versed on sports games) and it could be something else fun for the boards to enjoy.
I was hoping there was a racing simulator like it and all the boards could design a car or whatever if they wanted and go through the race.
Brody Rogers
Has it started yet? My streaming isn't working
Jayden Thompson
>We can play without a sweeper and move some midfielders out wide to pressure the flanks. We don't need to pressure the flanks with a forward trio and two wingers, we need to defend them by moving the two wide middies in the back, making a flat four and advancing the central cb as a half back or just a defensive middie depending on how much you're looking to have the full backs push.
Landon Rodriguez
The cup runs notoriously late, but whoever is running the Spring Babby this year is even worse. Veeky Forums v. Veeky Forums probably won't be for another hour
Evan Turner
I'm still seeing vr vs r9k.
Justin Howard
They have a lot of stuff like that in the pre-stream. They used to have F4CC racing, but not anymore. Right now the /y/ manager is hosting a modded 4cc Mugen with fighters representing each team.
Like I said, it's not on time. It's on /vr/ - [r9k] right now. After that it's two more games before ours.
Kayden Morris
Ok, I'm new here, it's the hitbox link right?
Evan Green
Just make them the starting cb duo senpai. It's not that hard.
Nolan Nguyen
It's the video player on the wiki's front page. It's kinda hard to miss user.
Leo Murphy
For some reason it's not working for me. It didn't work for the last game either but I thought it was because I was on my uni's guest wifi. I'll try a different browser maybe.
James Peterson
Ok, I got it to work. It wasn't working in my private browser
Adrian Sanders
Oh, shit, right. Well I work off of conditions man. Not willing to sacrifice tactical play in favor of meme magic.
Oliver Morales
Meme magic is the only tactic
Nathaniel Wilson
How is the ball decided? I kinda don't wanna see that stupid fucking skull in today's game too. What was the point of making it that big anyway? A ball sized one would have been much better.
Julian Myers
Seconding this. It was hard to watch
Matthew Allen
They choose at their leisure.
Nicholas Thompson
the streamer thought it was the smaller skull for whatever reason
Alexander Reed
Streamers and sometimes managers decide. It's a pretty stupid Veeky Forums ball that they made because it was supposed to be funny and Veeky Forums had home game so they'd get the pick anyway.
Aaron Jenkins
>sometimes managers decide Pls tell them we don't want on our behalf then.
Colton Flores
*don't want it
Adam Edwards
They won't use it from now on as long as Veeky Forums is not playing, at least
Jacob Wilson
So, do we have a rivalry with Veeky Forums now? Can we call it the Spooker Bowl?
Isaac Jones
I wanted to ask it in the thread the other day, but why spooker instead of spooks?
Luis Collins
it's on the wiki.
"Spooker" is a pun on "Super" as in "Super Bowl"
Jace Young
I just noticed it, is our alt kit supposed to be a lorica hamata? Fucking nice.
Adam Howard
Ok good. This rivalry has major potential.
Side not though, they don't have it on their wiki. If it ends up being only us who care about the rivalry we'll look kind of pathetic
Blake Smith
Veeky Forums has 4cc shit on autofilter, they don't give a shit about the competition in general.
William Nelson
The second one is, yes. The first one is directly based on this Roma design which is supposedly supposed to represent a segmentata.
Benjamin Martin
That's kind of a bummer because their Infinite Jest kit is GOAT and they have some funny players (DFW, Start With The Greeks). At least their not just ignoring us though
Jackson Nelson
We've had some severe cases of MOST DANGEROUS LEAD tonight.
Learn from those mistakes, and don't let history repeat itself.
Angel Diaz
Fuck me, can any team in our group even defend?
Brody Ortiz
Shootout group
Ian Hernandez
Veeky Forums can. It's worrying.
Parker Sanchez
>Veeky Forums goalkeeping
Hudson Hill
Godammit fucking greek boilovers, ruined the perfect draw.
Owen Diaz
Am I the only one with unstable streaming? It keeps stopping and starting.
Josiah Robinson
>The Greeks >not buttfucking cute boys
Nolan Carter
It's ok. No matter what we have to win our next two
>stream works perfectly the whole day >goes to shit when Veeky Forums play fml
Anthony Powell
Not exactly. If we beat Veeky Forums today, and Veeky Forums beats Veeky Forums on Saturday, we can draw /cm/ to go through.
Alexander Edwards
Alright, let’s get ready for some: > > >
Dylan Rivera
I guess. In that case it doesn't really matter if Veeky Forums got a draw or not as long as they won
Levi James
>as long as they won meant to say /cm/ didn't win
Justin Rivera
EMPIRE FOR SALE PLEASE
Andrew Garcia
>Gaius and Aulus together again in the backfield
Thank you based Marquis
Parker Thompson
>H >R >E blue
no memes
Adrian Walker
Why is >H>R>E blue? He scored 5 goals in the last match!
Caleb Campbell
>Julius Cesar not in goal anymore
He's getting better
Cameron Davis
Conditions are randomly generated each match
Angel Thomas
Wait a second, are we actually gonna play proper WM this time? Can't we just leave 20s formations to the 20s? It still count as Veeky Forums material if we use 80s stuff you know.
Robert Stewart
Great Wall needs to be in the goal for at least one match.
Jack Young
It could be this one because it's got the best shape among GKs
Aiden Davis
Matches are decided mostly by RNG.
Julian Baker
It's in.
Gabriel Roberts
Apparently PES AI can't exploit the flanks properly, meaning that the standard formation is a 4-4-2 with a midfield diamond.
But a square in midfield isn't even that different.
Jonathan Perry
Widen the forwards Marquis.
Cameron Rodriguez
>But a square in midfield isn't even that different. It is irl because muh diagonals actually, but perhaps it's the same ingame.
Ian Parker
>actual game tip
Joseph Bennett
IT'S HAPPENING
Juan Anderson
LETS GO BOYZ!
Lincoln Morgan
I'm nervous. >H>R>E is on blue (I don't know what that means but it seems bad)
