I went 3-0 once... seriously though, I'm with you. Some of these guys playing are incredible how good they can hit and play. I'm really good at Madden and usually play H2H on the highest level every year, but I can't even touch a winning record in h2h with this game.
Yesh madden is a joke. Spam the same 3 plays over and over again with a qb rollout. Madden is more about finding ways to exploit EAs terrible programming than it is trying to beat your opponent. This game requires user skill. I wish madden wasn't horrible.
Both games require user skill. Spamming 3 plays only works against bad players. I was 86-42 h2h this year back and forth between the top 2 levels in Madden. I ran 20+ unique plays per game and off meta all year. I challenge anybody who thinks it takes no skill in Madden to learn the top 3 you tube plays and go spam them on All-pro or higher in Madden H2H and see how far that gets you. This game is user skill too, my biggest weakness in this game is I can't figure out how to fix the fact that online on All-Star is harder to hit than hof offline. In 75% of my online games the fastball comes so fast... I have to guess and start swinging as soon as the ball is released or it's late. There is nothing wrong with my internet and can hit fastballs offline with ease. If Madden was as broken as this game... that community would riot. This game could be great if it didn't have so many little bugs and server issues.
Madden requires skill, yet a guy can win a cash tournament with a punter as his qb and only run run plays to 1 side. Cool.
That was a salary cap game tournament where his strategy was to use all his cap points to build a run only squad and it was unstoppable. They dont do salary cap tournaments anymore because of it. If you think that one of the top Madden players in the world doesn't have skill... there's no point in arguing with you. If it takes no skill the same handful of players wouldn't be there in the end of every tournament every year. We should play a game and stream it and then you can show me how skill means nothing in Madden. If you spam 3 plays against me... I 100% guarantee you will lose.
My experience with madden. Every game is the same, call crossing plays, audible the strong side tight end to bump and go up the seam, audible the half back to bump and go on a slant, Audible slide block; snap the ball, run out of the pocket, wait for your crossing routes. Then just throw it to which ever receiver the ai spazzed on and left open, if the user is great at coverage run out of bounds with your QB for a 5 yard gain. Throw in a weak side run every now and then with the occasional play action quick cross all from the same formation. Rinse and repeat.
And perhaps the top players don't do this, but 80% of the middle guys do. It gets old. Haven't bought the game in a couple years.
My bad for being rude to you tho.

It's all stuff that can be shutdown with adjustments. The players that run the same plays over and over are extremely boring to match up with, but they usually quit once they see you can shut their only plays down. The game gets exploited for sure.... but so does every online game once some streamers get a hold of it and try to sell "the best play in the game" to get clicks on their channel. The punter QB thing a couple years ago was ridiculous, but they were stupid for running a salary cap mode tournament and not expect people to exploit it. The guy that did that "joke" is a top player every year, but that year he used all his salary points to basically build an unstoppable team to run every play and it worked because he was good enough that nobody with their regular cap defense could stop it. It's still a fun game to me, but not like it used to be... used to be the only game I played straight through every year, but now I only play Madden half the year and play this game the other half. I'm terrible at hitting online, but still enjoy this game as much as Madden... I think mainly play both because I love football and baseball... but think both could be much better.

Same, madden was once my favorite game. Now i don't buy it. I play this game till about September then I play rpgs or fps games. This year I'll play the Show until elden ring goes on sale. I'm also a huge Apex fan.

As someone who got to no life both madden and the show during my freshman year of college they both take alot of skill but they require way too much time invested to actually be good. Madden was much more frustrating to play because some offensive schemes were so unstoppable in madden 21. Most games just came down to who got the luckier animations. I like to think I was pretty good since I was placing top 10 in weekend league every week and beating some notable top players. In the show I also no lifed it and got really good and went 2-0 vs mcgunski and went 12-0 in BR for the first time. I also completed every collection and made world series every single season and hit 1000 rating here and there. Madden was the much more rage inducing experience I would say though. Working a 9-5 while also having school now reminds me to just have fun in the small amount of time I get to play.

BR can be so fluky at times hats off to anybody who can go 12-0 consistently .
-
The worst is when idiots get multiple dinky hits and then when bases are juiced, the blast some pitch on the edge of the plate. Sick of losing to bad players.

I’m friends with a guy that knows that dude you’re referring to. That dude doesn’t leave the house very often and literally makes his living playing video games. Strange dude.

The pitch speed difference between offline and online is not a "bug". It has been that way for as long as I can remember. Hitting with zone interface takes a lot of skill and some good hand eye coordination. For older folks like myself (52), I can notice the decline in ability yearly.
Made WS last year but haven't played much RS this year as the ability drop off from last year has been very noticeable. The game can be extremely frustrating but it's always fun. For a large portion of the players, WS is an incredible feat if you do it the old way and not the innings played method. It takes a lot of skill and a bit of luck as well. Keep grinding and you can get there.
Going 12-0 in BR IMO, takes about 80% skill and 20% luck. I've had a 12-1 run once a few years ago after starting 9-0. Most of those that can do it consistently are just crazy good!
-
I went flawless almost once a week from MLBTS17 up until MLBTS20. Then it became increasingly harder each year because of the randomness that was increased each year. Last year I didn't even get the 10 times banner over a whole year. This year I haven't even gone flawless yet. It used to be more about skill, now it's more about luck. Can lose to literally anyone.
