Has anyone else played their 12th man chip in MD1? I've got 9pts from Mbappe, though it should have been more, not sure how he missed that tap-in late in the 1H...

Used it on Kane, not a bad return. Mbappe should have had a hattrick, but then again so did a lot of others (Giroud, Valencia, Saka).

Used it on Mbappe as well, 9 points is not bad all these points look weak to me. I keep expecting scores like in FPL and it is impossible to get without bonus points. I think they aren't properly adding all those extra points for key passes and shots on goal as well. Have a feeling they will just disappear from the rules one day.

Has anybody tried to change their captain more then once? According to the rules it should be possible to twist captaincy just once but you never know if that one is implemented properly. I have points from Messi and now thinking on twisting it to De Bruyne or Neymar.

Well yeah some people would probably pick Valencia but I doubt that anyone would give him the captain band.

i told you so... you have to be weired to win fantasy Grin

I honestly didnt see that coming. That player had Kane and Messi on his team but then decided to put the captain band on Valencia, there was probably still some other options to put that band on his midfielders though but oh well I guess people needs to think out of the box to get decent amount of points rather than selecting only favourites

He wasn't being a genius, It's because the FIFA fantasy rules is significantly different from that of FPL, If Valencia had not given him worthy return he would have had the chance to replace him with Harry Kane or Messi, unlike in the FPL where you only get one shot at the captain, and you can't even know if he's going to start or not in the FPL.

Fantasy experts: so subs should just stay on the bench and let auto do the job unless you know players don't play, right?

Absolutely not, subs are there to let you get more points. But the idea is not to sub off players that did well for you, rather try it with players that did poorly. For instance Trippier got 1 point for me and he will go out for DeBruyne tonight, while I will also sub someone else, maybe Eriksen when I see how many points he got for Batsuyashi. Then I have Neymar on final day to twist one more player.

I have Fantasy chat on Clubtalk tomorrow at 6PM GMT between last 2 games so feel free to drop by and ask stuff like that.

I am also changing my captain from Messi to Neymar or DeBruyne. It is a bit of gamble since I will loose his double points but I believe it is worth it.

At least I know I'll never make that mistake again. I stupidly thought subs were there to maximise player rosters, using early games for main 11 and subs for latter games. They should have put a warning though when I subbed Saka or at least say that you'll lose all points collected.

This single mistake has made me feel like giving up, tbh!

I'll not really be free but I'll try find you guys on Clubtalk today. Enjoying Japan, even though none of them are on my Fantasy.

I have a question... what if I use the "Power Captain" token right now when Saka has already played? ~~Will the captain's armband go from Messi to Saka?~~

From what i can tell points for tackles, key passes and shots on target have not been added yet. Not to mention they've changed the rules once again, midfielders now get 7 points for goals (instead of 5), two days after the competition has begun and people have locked in their transfers. Shocked

I've seen teams with up to $-9.5m budgets using the transfer glitch, i've also seen at least one team with six midfielders, which according to the rules and allowed formations is not possible. It's just crazy how many bugs and glitches this game has, unnecessarily complicated rules, a totally unfinished product.

I think i'm staying put with Messi's points at this point, it feels kinda early to take risks, though De Bruyne is tempting with mids now getting 7 for a goal.

I see that many are actively involved in the management of their team, so I would like to clarify whether these are necessary actions to win the tournament (exactly necessary and not optional) or there is an option when someone makes a good choice at the beginning of the tournament and then either makes changes between match days or does not make at all?

It is always possible but I would say that chances are way lower for inactive managers. Inactive managers are playing with 11 players while active are playing with 15. Not exactly but we can exchange those 4 extra players after our first choices failed. That option should get you at least 10 more points every match day and probably even 15. This time there is also an option of actual transfers during match day but that is not needed if your first selection was on point. That is only for those situations when you see that your choice have been left on the bench. For instance very handy if you took Benzema for your team.

Didnt even realise this is what was happening but for now I will take the W inpite having a long way to go... Hope Fifa corrections don't affect our scores so much to cause big position variances.

Well, that did not go as planned for Messi captains like me heh heh -- 7 offsides and 3 disallowed goals in first half could have meant so much in points. Oh well.
-snip

at least Messi scored from penalty spot
really goes beyond me that Argentina lost to Saudi Arabia, have you played on Saudis, it is your thing to chase these

Denmark is also still goalles with Tunisia, after half an hour, will we see more surprises today, Australia maybe?

And to cap my FML off? I subbed Saka out of my team... and I lost all 15 points from him. Did NOT realise you would lose points after benching people in the same Matchday. I know the rules say players on the bench don't earn points, but I thought this was only if you kept them benched. Made such a good choice to have him in my team, and then of course fantasy inexperience gets in the way. Normally don't even bother with subs but thought I'd be smart in this FIFA format.

Looking at how players get points I think Fifa didn't give much opportunity for the defenders to score extra points with fantasy football... how is it that strikers get points for shoots on target, midfielders for tackles and key passes, keepers for saves and defenders just nothing if not a goal or an assist of which all players get Huh

Considering the substitution glitch that was earlier reported and seeing this, could Fifa have rushed this game Roll Eyes

0 points for me because I tried to be funny with Qatar and Iran (unfortunately not Mehdi Taremi) on my roster but I hope this can change a lot with Argentina as I have the main man there, but I guess a lot of you also have the same, so let's see.

By the way are any of you playing daily fantasy? There are prizes and I just discovered it now but picked random

I think that without a doubt the different ideas are mixed (pool)

a start in 4th place that could undoubtedly change today, since I only have one player to "fight" points.

As for the user registry of this WCF we are 169... and from what I understand it is still open.

The match that interested me at the level of this WC-Fantasy: nice game England; MaGuire on my payroll, he almost scored a goal as I expected but the stick took away those additional points... so today I reach 17 pts.

The points are updated, I have dropped to 16th place and Woodie is the leader with 39. (until now...)

Man, you guys with Ecuador, and then slam with Qatar in his defence HAHAHA (sorry man). I know you have to be weird to win Fantasy but you went too weird, my friend Wink

Pickford my sub and I wanted to test that if it worked and it does, as he's automatically gone in now and shows 0 points (live). Kane is my 12th man boost, also showing 0 points so it seems like the live is working for FIFA.

Sterling started also, so I got that part right in my Quiz (but I can't imagine anyone else not picking him to do so)... just need Southgate to sub him off and get Trent on late when they're still nil-nil like this as I expect will happen when 2nd half resumes. 25 minutes and not one attempt on target, typical England.

Useless trivia: They're playing at the same stadium I was at in 2019 =D

Not bad start for me to get 3 points on exact score in the pool, but terrible start in Fantasy because I had one Qatar defender in my Fantasy team lol

Imagine if Valencia got his hattrick we would have 2 guys happily in our Fantasy getting far ahead. I hope it doesn't crash when I try to make subs tomorrow...

Yeah that is the correct one. But I really just answered pretty much all you asked in post just before yours. Applications are open until 02.12. and you have to fill in the form on official promo page over on Sportsbet.

Benzema out is actually quite unexpected and maybe it already screwed with somebody 12th man chip. Not much time left until the first game, just about 3 hours.

Sorry for asking, yeah I think a few of us are getting confused for many different competitions, what a nice problem to have however Wink

Benzema really screwed with me, now I'm worried about my 12th man chip as he's also a guy who likes getting injured (Neymar). But that's why he wasn't in my squad even though I have a feeling he's going to be one of the tournament favs.

This fantasy game could turn out to be a complete flop in the end, if it is not already.

People were talking about a working glitch/hack on Twitter earlier today that allows you to have players above the allowed budget, like wtf? lol

Quote from: Trofo on November 20, 2022, 03:38:53 PM

Damn, people behind this game are slow, they have updated points for just 2 players so far.

They could be busy fixing the glitches before they add/update player points. It's a mess already and it's just day 1.

Points still not updated, makes for fun decisions in game where you can already make bench substitutions.

I did not hear about that budget exploit but I plan to use wildcard in GW2 and see if it will really be possible to make free transfers for GW3 with it as well.

What is absolutely worst is the fact that Wold Cup fantasy from FIFA worked perfectly 4 years ago. I guess someone wanted to be smart and hired new team to work on it.

Those are not their fantasy points but rather their order of auto substitutions to be applied to your team in case any of your players don't play on that matchday(week).

**cough** cough** you had Valencia woooow Roll Eyes
