To break the monotony of SB, I use it to try out different cards, synergies, and abilities. While I wait to sell my tradeable cards I'll make teams with certain themes. You may find a hidden gem card that YOU play well with.
Thanks, man. As a previously mostly-franchise-mode player on my first time out in HUT I've struggled as I leveled up on SB just because the also predictable ways to score I've used on lower levels just plain stopped working. Nice to have this in my back pocket, because you know you can split the difference - play straight up and use the exploit if the ai cheats too hard.
Last year I didn't have much difficulty winning in superstar mode, but this year I have been really struggling. Thanks for the tips, I would prefer to play the game proper, but I find this year superstar it's too overpowering.
If u having a hard time add a few huge players to ur lineup the ai will struggle to nudge a player and let u walk by. Any huge guy like wheeler will work
This is helpful for those of us who see SB as very daunting. 670 games for the NOH objective, even with all 20 players stacked...is mind numbing. Getting as many points as possible to make it worth it is helpful
LOL the whole time I was watching this video, I was like, "he's making this seem too easy. can't be true". paused at the 5:20 mark to go try for myself and just scored 30 seconds in on my first shot 🤦 thank you 😂
I was wondering why the front of my net was wide open and I was getting roasted on defense, are they planning on making collapsing actually be collapsing at some point? Will they bother to tell us? I saw you mention this a while back but I figured it would be fixed by now... Nice job on this video though, but let the newbies know they can get a perfect score and still finish 86 or something based on the luck of the draw in terms of schedule/opponents. They should make these tiered rewards rather than a ranked one to take the lottery aspect out of it.
Hello from europe..I played FIFA for many years, in FIFA it was the case that the players who played in the "wrong" position performed poorly, isn't it the same in NHL?
Top 100 is a lottery. He maxed out points for every single game in a single stream, and got Elite 1. Then got 0 purples in his SB packs. Sounds like a waste of time. Finishing the objectives in SBs with 2 mins periods is useful though.
@Max caussy nice! If it was Suzukis ASG card, that's a big W. At the end of the day, it's cards for the collection for sure, but def not worth grinding past Elite 1. Watch your next 5 weeks of rewards, see how the average plays. More often than not, the rewards don't match the time/effort, but are tradeable too.
Man I must be really bad at this game took everything I had to beat an 86 team 8-5 on superstar. My team is also 86. That shot pass kept getting blocked or knocked down. Was way easier last year. Couldn't score on the backhand but could on the forehand. Must be because I'm more used to it.
@Eldon B I won my first totw on superstar last week. He's right about the defense if you can take away the middle you won't get hosed by cheap cpu goals. That low shot to the net is cheap but if you're losing it works. I suck at the backhand still. 🍻
@@jsmusicanddrums Yeah, I have been using No Sleeves tips and it has been going better for me lately. I vowed last HUT season I would concentrate on Rivals anyway, but we have to play SBs to get the best chance at a half-way decent team.
Qestion : This week I was able to win all the games on Superstar difficulty. Only 2 games not 5 goals ahead(about 4 goals missing in total) - BUT I only got Rang 86. Rank 1 had over 2000 points more - so it seems I missed something. How do other players achieve more pints ?
Everyone has different opponents. There’s were a lil higher rated than yours. Like maybe they had all opponents 85 overall and up. And you may of had some in 70s. Just random for every1.
@@joe19859 thanks.. but... 😳😳but then its all random! If you are unlucky you have no chance to hit the top 100 at all, even if you're able to play a perfect 'streak'.. that must be sooo frustrating! (you've played so many matches for nothing then..) His concept is sick! Its so much about gambling.. but if you're unlucky you get a disconnect anyway(also in the 2nd try.. already happend to me. EA what you do to us is not tolerable.)
What happens when you replay a team? You have to pay 500 coins or you can earn a max of 500 coins? I’m trying to figure out how to use the opponent refresh most effectively. I appreciate any help.
Great vid Sleeves! Deleted previous comment! Game updated as I was scrolling through the menus and sale went through and coins added to my account! Phew!
@@p91dc40cal I have had the game give me more errors in the past two days than all of last year! Which is saying a lot! EA really needs to tighten up their stuff!
I like your videos, but I have to admit this one was sort of a gut punch. I’m one of the people who enjoys playing squad battles. I should have known that no matter how well I played I would only be able to get rewards depending on how many people are “suffering through” the games in order to essentially cheat their way to the best rewards. I thought the marketplace was the only place the profiteers had taken over. How naive of me.
I prefer cross crease goals than this shitty wraparound goals glitch! At least cross crease looks great, it looks like real good hockey plays! Cross crease problem in the past was that pass was going thru players too easily. Thay fixed that last year so why nerfing cross crease so bad and keep that glitch goal?
Because its the AI and people want to get their games done and move on. I touch on this in the video. If you enjoy playing it, play it the way you would like!
@@whoismarkk yeah if you can stop it, its not really a glitch goal, and you can stop wraps pretty easily. The old cross creases, not so much. Having said that, they overnerfed cross creases.

I respect this, I mention in my video if you enjoy squad battles you should definitely mess around and do stuff you like.

Is the staggered/collapsing problem resolved? Thanks!

So do i have to wait a day for my squad battle rewards? i made elite 2 yesterday befor it ended and i havent recieved anything yet

That's something I didn't know either, also my penalty kill lines are always reversed, very annoying.
What gets me is I’m having a hard time getting the max score. I just won 9-0 over a 95 overall team and was still short 20 points
Hello from europe..I played FIFA for many years, in FIFA it was the case that the players who played in the "wrong" position performed poorly, isn't it the same in NHL?
I’m so ready for the hut evo event I’m FTP and I have 10 86’s saved up and 3 85’s
is there an afk spot like last year?
Does the ranking Still change over the week with other players online like last year ?
Yeah it does. Still rng based
@@med_student_gamer1959 thx man
Someone on PS5 had 33 games finished by 6:30am est on Wednesday. Holy SB Batman.
I legit just pulled xfactor Mac from the loyalty rewards. But they robbed me of my first all star difficulty SB win. Lol
Squad battles are not fun but I find it very easy to smash AI and yes sleeves the rewards are great if you can get top 100

Can’t play defense against the AI and can’t break out
I pulled Gretzky out of my SB rewards
what is your tip on getting the black screen during the totw squad battles match?
Rage hard
Happened to me too I was so fucking mad
I've had it a few times. Hard to get past Elite 2-3 when your screen goes black on 5-10 games...
Lmao
get a penalty watch the ànimation game will be good, spam stick lift to get the penalty

I love that EA nerfed the oblivion out of cross crease but left this shitty ass glitch goal unchanged for years. its so boring to score this way
Let the goalie use his stick. Lort knows they know how to code and animate a poke check!

you pay 500 coins to play the same team again
I been playing sb on rookie 2 mins then play them again on all star so I can get the 200 games complete faster
Sickest Beard in TH-cam
Idk if I’m missing something but why haven’t the packs been added to my inbox when I hit different tiers in squad battle?
The rewards are given each week. Thursday at 5pm Eastern
Bulldogs hat would be better 😀 haha love the ice dogs, not a fan of St Catherines
anyone else watch this video then have the AI just score every shot they get on your mid goalie
The only reason I play SB is because when I play online, I am soo laggy
Love the tips and tricks everyday! I am f2p and you have been carrying my team! I love squad battles, am I weird?
Nice one. Thank you for breaking this down
its trickier with the black screen play SB :D man wtf is that this year :(
Such garbage and so random. I can play 2 or 3 games and then black screen out of nowhere.
This is how predictive everyone is
Legit how I beat everyone
Nice Jób. The rare people who r not glitching yet u made them glitcher. Thank u. Ea made sh@t.no more 1timer.1 timer passes going to make a glitch.
I loaded into my totw squad battle and it black screened😒
Also this video was made form me thanks 😌🙏
Did mess up taking X factor Kane over crosby ?
Yes
But play with the cards you like
@@xrd577 ah that sucks ☹️ I thought crosby would be too expensive to upgrade since I’m free to play
@@dean3438 Kane is very good still

How many points does it take to stay in the top 100 on average
On PS4 you need 80,000 points on average for top 100

They need to make SB 2 min periods and than adjust the points to do so because playing the ai that much melts my brain
