People that are good at using the switch stick are nearly unbeatable.

That's no surprise tbh

I got great pressure on him when I was on defense but let me tell you... couldn't do SHIT on offense. I rage quit. That DDA stuff is such bullshit.

For everyone that is going to tell me DDA is not real…… the game has programmed ability to adjust your players skill different than your opponents. Play the tower or even different modes in solo battles to see this.

Only question left….. would EA put this in head to head to get more money? If you say DDA doesn’t exist you are saying they are prioritizing honor over money. 🤭😆

if i may offer some advice, i think switch stickers (me) are easy to take advantage of. As long as you have a clearout route on the field you can just bait them. they will switch off a streak to cut off a corner route, for instance, just throw the streak a second later. i score a lot on people if i catch them being aggro on the stick

Honestly it's always so jarring to come across someone good with it because you get accustomed to just running into Cover 3 shaded down merchants who are just running around with their linebacker nonstop.

Switch stick is absolutely a skill, and the amount of DDA rants on here is a bit excessive.

I am not a switch stick user myself and therefore I'm generally capped at about 13-15 wins in champ mode, have yet to hit 16.  

I'm more of a weekend warrior so so be it, but to knock guys who can use it effectively is just being salty about it.

I would agree, yes dda is a problem. But this thread has gotten too much into it. Switch stick is a great skill, idk how tf to do it, but switch stick isn’t dda. Complete skill thing, and I don’t have the skill

Fr they gotta do away with that ridiculousness

nah not salty...its a bail out for bad defense period......you should never be able to cover 60+ yds of the field...sounds like you are salty defending this trash

The game isn't even fun anymore. The first six months were good, but EA devs and their money grubbin hands got a hold of it after the execs realized it could make money. The game will never be good again

As someone who played defense in high school (in the ancient days) I think switch stick takes a lot of the chess match away in defensive scheming.  

As everyone knows with regard to your teammates, offenses rely on finding and exploiting matchups with the more shakier guys on your squad combined with the fact that  some  area of the field is vulnerable in every scheme.  Switch sticking basically takes that aspect away.  

That said, it's a weapon on the table so I don't blame people for using it and it's a skill gap issue for me, but it shouldn't be that easy to cover that much of the field with a magical leaping user making picks at will.  The game should be balanced between "real ball" knowledge and button pushing.

I say this exact thing to my buddy in squads after we start throwing picks that absolutely wouldn't be picked off in real life. It's such a bummer sometimes.
