If not mistaken, only 1 loss is allowed in order to advance to B3 right?

Right now I have a record of 6-0, but I'm quite confident that I'll loose my two last matches.


since we had the group stage, there was just one time where no 6-2 teams with good point differential advanced to the next round.

Edit: correct myself, there where always team with 6-2 in the next round.

i used motion sometimes(also in the past seasons where i qualified), but it is more likely seeing me playing LI.

I haven't watched B3 at all (my bad)...
Of the top 32 right now have any not run LI MtM? It would be interesting to see a team qualify for knockout without running LI MtM once the entire season.

It would also be interesting to see a team consistantly stopping LI with 2-3.

If there was a team (there are a few I guess actually) that was running motion, and they guaranteed me they were gonna run motion or some other outside offence I would just run 3-2 and kill them (well assuming teams are aroudn the same level)

Now I am veyr very eager to see a good motion team get somewhere in B3, but I think they can only do it if they also run LI sometimes. If yo upredict that motion and run a 3-2 they'll get eaten alive. (or well do we ahve examples of a motion beating a LI 3-2 tactic?)

Unfortunately a really well built team can email you 6 months in advance 'hey I am gonna run LI on you' and well its just not as big a help as if they promised to run motion...cuz nothing stops LI like 3-2 stops motion and I think this is why so many decent players are quitting and leaving these days :(

Anyway my point is that in order for motion to work, you need to also be able to run LI IMO. Otherwise you'll get predicted and shut down with a zone.



whats about a lack of knowledge about the tactics in general ?!

every idiot, me included, know what u need to play LI but what guard skills do u know for motion, princton or push??

check my last cup game (45586044)
--> (6680377) is shooting 5 - 16 against (23873844) ?!??!?

and my last game with push (42812162) and the statline from (11898463) in that game against a decent defender

u never will see such two differnet outcomes with a great inside shot center than u playing LI isnt it ?!?

:p

Cheers
