How to Play: Part 1

First, play Career Mode and focus on developing your players and raising your Manager Level!
These players can then be used in Dream Team Mode.

Career Mode

Choose a league and club to begin your management career. TIPS1-1_1.png
As your Manager Level increases, you'll be able to choose from a wider range of clubs.

Several leagues also allow you to make a custom club.
Manage your club and strive to become the league champion!

• Prime Players
In Career Mode, you can add up to two Prime Players to your club at the start of each season.
Recruit your favourite players and train them into all-stars!
Prime Players can be acquired through Prime Scouting.

• Squads and Registered Players
After one season has passed in Career Mode, your team is saved as a Squad, and all players become registered.
Your Squads and registered players can be used in Dream Team Mode.

• Assistants
Throughout the game, you'll have a personal assistant who supports the team.
The assistant you choose has no effect on gameplay, so feel free to select whoever you like.
A special collaboration assistant is also available.

The face icon indicates a player's condition.

TIPS4-1_1.png

The colour of the icon is determined by the player's position.

Green: CF, LW, RW
Orange: AM, DM, LM, RM
Blue: CB, LB, RB
Red: GK

The abbreviations for each position are as follows.

CF: Centre Forward
LW: Left Wing
RW: Right Wing
AM: Attacking Midfielder
DM: Defensive Midfielder
LM: Left Midfielder
RM: Right Midfielder
CB: Centre Back
LB: Left Back
RB: Right Back
GK: Goalkeeper

Team and Player Approaches

The team and its players all have approaches.
An approach represents the team's philosophy. When the team's approach matches a player's, their Stats will increase.

TIPS5-1_1.png

In Dream Team Mode, approaches have their own affinities.
Choosing an approach with an advantage over your opponent's will boost your team's Stats.
The more players that match the team's approach, the greater the boost.

TIPS5-2_1.png

Player Status

Players have a variety of attributes.

TIPS6-1_1.png

While playing Career Mode, you may encounter match results like the following.

'If we want to come out on top, we need to work on our Tackling, Contact, and Jumping.'

There are two main ways to improve attributes.
• Team Training
• Special Training

You can improve attributes by selecting the designated training programme during Team Training. TIPS6-2_1.png
For example, if you want to improve Tackling, find it on the Team Training screen and select DEF (Defence) training listed above it.
If you want to improve Jumping and Contact, select PHY (Physical) training.

You can also improve specific attributes through Special Training.

Using a Tackling Practice Training Card during Special Training will improve not only Tackling and Contact, but also Marking and Stamina.
If you're unsure which Special Training programme to choose, selecting Recommended will automatically assign the player and Training Card that provides the greatest attribute boost for your team.

Prime Players' attributes can also be improved in the Player Upgrade menu using certain items and upgrade modules. These improvements are applied immediately.

Scouting Criteria

To build a stronger team, use the Scouting feature to recruit new players.

TIPS7-1_1.png

While a variety of players will appear on the Scouting List, setting a Scouting Criteria can help find your desired players.

TIPS7-2_1.png

Adjust criteria such as Main Position and Approach to find the best fit for your team.
Additional criteria such as playstyle and traits can also be set to further refine your search.

Formation Combos

In Career Mode, you can earn Formation Coins by winning leagues at each league level.
Formation Coins can be exchanged for Formation Combos at a dedicated Trader.
Meeting the conditions for a Formation Combo will boost your team's Stats.

TIPS8-1_1.png

To activate a Formation Combo, you may need to use a specific formation (e.g., 4-3-3) or assign players with specific playstyles to key positions.

TIPS8-2_1.png TIPS8-2_1.png

Higher-rank Formation Combos have more requirements for key positions.
While the requirements can be demanding, these combos are extremely powerful, so try to activate them whenever possible!

TIPS8-3_1.png

Optimal Position

Players have positions that are best suited to them.
Placing players in their optimal positions allows them to perform at their full potential.

TIPS9-1_1.png

Red-highlighted zones indicate a player's optimal positions.
When assigned to a red-highlighted position, the player will perform at 100% during matches.

In the yellow zone, players perform at 70% of their capabilities, while their effectiveness drops to 55% in all other zones.
Position suitability varies by player, even if they share the same main position.

TIPS9-2_1.png

In this example, only the RW position is highlighted in red, and the yellow-highlighted positions are also different.
Take each player's optimal position into account to maximise your team's performance.

Breakthroughs

During Career Mode, players will occasionally gain Athletic Points.
Once the player has accumulated enough Athletic Points, they'll experience a Breakthrough, boosting their Stats.

TIPS10-1_1.png

You can raise specific attributes, such as Shooting or Dribbling, by performing Breakthroughs on them.

TIPS10-2_1.png

The success rate for a Breakthrough is 25% at each level.

TIPS10-3_1.png

Since the success rate doesn't change, there's no need to overthink it!
