They had different defenders.
Patient is looking for the biggest mismatch. One game it was for your player A, another game it was for your player B.
Also if you have a relatively equal squad, then patient will not bring this "magic" distribution in terms of shots, it will be more spread out.
If you need some sort of guide lines for reverse patient:
- unbalanced squad set up works best (so you have one really good shooter and the rest of the team is just average)
- you assign your best shooter to C which "potentially" will cause the biggest mismatch (usually C has less OD and so your JS + JR + DR combo can shine)
