Champ Contenders CPU event is SWEATY!!

Got home from work, had myself some smoke and jumped in to this CPU event thinking it was going to be just like the RTCP mode. Nope. CPU almost beat the brakes off me. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Anybody else try it and find it a bit sweaty or is it just me? Lol

For reference I play All-American Solo seasons all the time and easily beat up on the CPU with scores of 35-49/0. Every once in a while the CPU will catch me slipping and get score. 

Champ Contenders is definitely dialed up a notch above All-American, whatever that is. 

Heisman? 

🤷‍♂️

I haven't found it any more challenging than the all-American solo season.

Not being an ass Oats but you’ve lost your mind or your game is glitched.  I almost threw my controller for the first time since I was a kid. I won first two games by 3 tds then the third I had to comeback. My DB’s couldn’t cover a midget and their LB’s can teleport 5 yards. I was going to make a topic about this….whats best defense to play? Man or Zone?

Against the CPU? Always, Man... I get roasted using the usual zone I use in H2H.

Ok, I usually do but I was trying everything and receivers were way too open almost every time they’d throw.

Teleport is spot on. Forget running. They teleport right through defenders. Glad I'm not the only one who's inner child was raging at EA for making it so difficult and only offering the least amount of reward possible.

I did fumble on my own 20 and wasn't allowed to challenge. I looked at the replay and my leg was on the ground before the ball popped loose. So that made for a sweaty win but I held them to a FG and them drove down the field for a TD to win.

That said, there are better CPU players but I don't feel the difficulty is that much higher. I found the college championship challenges WAY harder than this event.

I’m not great at the game so I like the laid back difficulty for rewards but I do enjoy the higher difficulty as long as I’m up by three scores! lol ……I also had the same issues with a first down and them getting a td that I couldn’t challenge.

It's slightly more difficult than all-American difficulty but it's really only noticeable if you try running the ball with chew clock on to make the game faster.  The long runs are much more rare in this mode.   All go still torches their defense every time though so scoring is never in question.
