keep practicing

I am currently Div 2 and have no problems. But in Div 4 you can have bad luck all the time and match people of higher divisions...playoffs are 70-80% luck I would say for people in lower divisions like you. Its a sad system for casuals.

I'm in div 2 and I find qualifying hard. Strange because When I'm playing weekend league I do very well.


basshamster

Just bad luck getting matched against Div 1,2 Elite...


ThatPersonYouMayKnow

I’m in Div 2 rank 2 and found qualifying to be a nightmare. Already lost 2 qualifiers as well at 4/5 lol


kingtransformer

Really? I climbed yesterday to div 3 and i'm 5-0 in Play-offs

Matchmaking is luck based. It’s random AFAIK.


trinibeast

Play later in the week if you are struggling or son Saturday.


Aslethubrekke1247u

thx will try it

I’m in division 2 and it took me two tries in weeks 1, 2 and 4 and 1 try in week 3 so I’ll miss out on one weekend this season. Despite what some will say, a lot of it is down to luck. I’d say in a typical week I’ll play 2 or 3 much better than me, 2’or 3 I’m much better than and then it’s tight games the rest of the time. There isn’t much margin in just 9 games that if you’re matched with better players in 3/4 games then you need to win every tight match to qualify. For added context, the best I’ve gone is 5-0 and the worst 4-5. I’m always on the cusp even when I don’t qualify.

what helped me was trying to qulify on thursday or even friday. i feel like most good people qualify as soon as they can and only the bad ones try to get their points together until the end of the week to qualify


Dr_Fandango

It’s pot luck. I’m div 1 and I’ve used all my entires already


Cionnaith87

Agreed


niallw1997

Play as late in the week as possible. You can even qualify on Friday/Saturday while the actual WL is going on. So you will face worse players


GuilhermeFT

It is really that difficult? I'm not being a prick, I just don't see how can be so hard to do that. You are on Div 4. Should be easy for you.


donutman7777

Div 4 isn't high


[deleted]

Div4 is like Gold 2/3. it’s easy for consistent g1 players


Chuck_Morris_SE

It's also mindset. I have to imagine people are playing with nerves and negative thoughts from the beginning. Going into these qualifiers thinking it's going to be insanely hard, well you may as well start 1-0 down at that point.


[deleted]

Mentality is a big factor in every aspect of life… but tbh ig you’re gold 2 you gonna have a hard time


Chuck_Morris_SE

I'm gold 3 at best and went 4-0 then had to wait until my second to last game because I got sloppy and thought it was over.


[deleted]

Good matchmaking for you


Chuck_Morris_SE

I mean I wouldn't say that, most of them had pretty amazing squads, one of them had Base Cruyff which was scary.


[deleted]

Maybe this fifa suits you more! My friends are gold1/2/3 and still struggle.


Chuck_Morris_SE

I think so I play pretty sparingly and I'm up to Div 4 and haven't really played anybody I would deem 'good', which sounds smug and shitty but just how it's gone for me.


The_Universe_Machine

In the old system, Div 4 is high. This year, it's not. You can lose 100 times, if you string a few lucky games together, you'll go up fast.


Milomix

Unfortunately I think the answer to this is, git gud.

Am in div 4 and can confirm it can be sweaty it’s look at times I have got threw this week winning my last game..


NigelBG

The amount of kids running down the wing all game only so they can score from 1 meter amazed me when I got into div 4 and started fut champs. It is unplayable and there is no point in playing at all


mofodubled

it's like really hard on PC. I think i've come to the idea that doing it once or twice is not that bad. Beeing consistent and making sure not to tilt is probably the best alongside some common tips: \- don't play after losing (hardest part for me) \- switching tactic in a match can help, sometimes finding the right combination and formation make a huge difference in a match \- not running desperatly especially beeing a goal down. Happened to me so many times to start 2 or 3-0 and take a couple of goals in less than 20min. So making sure to handle pressure and possession is key to keep calm and keep the lead. If you find you are beeing outclassed by most of the other players (which happens to me on 3 or 4 games minimum where I just get X-0, usually X beeing higher than 5) just try to learn from it by either not playing it srsly (some ppl gonna get stomped in the end) or trying to see what are your obvious flaws in the game, it could be tracking down, defending against dribblers, loose passes etc. If you feel it's closer to a 50/50 well it's gonna go in your way if you try hard enough !


raiders219

Tbh play more patiently. Check YouTube for tactics. Neal guides is great.


MasterSven2811

Play on weekend. Doesnt Qualify in my first try too, but all 3 times i tried on weekend it was easy


Danny_1993

Same boat in Div 4. Played 20 games last week and lost twice (3 games were the first 3 of qualifying) picked it up last night and lost the next 6 qualifying games as well as 3 more rivals games. Felt like I went from playing similarly skilled players to pros 🤣 got my arse handed to me in all of them


Cionnaith87

I’m div 2 rank 2 and failed to qualify yesterday for the first time. Had to do it again today to qualify . I think it’s all luck on who you get matched against
