kdmh74 Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 Is it important to set opp. prediction for your fights? Thanks guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcalimon Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 I always try to use it, except when I'm not sure what to expect from my opponent (it's his debut, has too many offensive options, ...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjornmma1 Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 Depends on the opponent and his manager in my opinion. If he is a very predictable manager/fighter, yeah sure. Otherwise, no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catako Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 I use it most of the time, as effect goes I don't know for sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
potter09 Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 I use it near enough every fight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shockg Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 I use it on one dimensional and/or predictable fighters. I don't use it when people switch their game up a bunch. I think it is an advantage against one trick ponies, but a disadvantage against someone who radically changes offensive sliders based on opponent. You can go third or fourth level and try to decide what they'll predict depending on your history, but that is a slippery slope and might get you KO'd or a decision loss. I do like that having it available makes me look into fighter's previous fights and see what they are doing. Otherwise I could be lazy and just count on my fighter's strengths and go from there. However, I could be totally wrong. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtieBanks Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 never used it, nor do I ever plan to. Far too many people switch up their gameplans when they fight at the top level it just makes it a crap shoot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shockg Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 never used it, nor do I ever plan to. Far too many people switch up their gameplans when they fight at the top level it just makes it a crap shoot. Agreed. I don't use it against high level managers that switch gameplans. I've only been around a little over a year but I've seen the slider differences. They are obvious. However most newish people don't compete at the high levels unless they pick up FA's (my best learning experience so far). There aren't that many high level managers in the game. Even if you monsters give advice, they won't see through the mist when they watch their fighters fight, unless you tell them exactly what to do. (notice I called you a monster, because you're great at this game) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

762x39 Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 I use them every fight. As others have said I dont think they help much unless the fighter is really one skilled. I have had good luck defending takedowns even with bad takedown D. But i have also seen times it didnt help at all. I just set them now out of habit more than anything.

Bravo Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 Probably a good time to mention that my predict fight sliders don't save? Never used them because of this. I do play from phone so that could be the issue. Anyone else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MMATycoon Posted June 13, 2016 Report Share Posted June 13, 2016 They aren't meant to save from fight to fight if that's what you are talking about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterLeader Posted June 13, 2016 Report Share Posted June 13, 2016 Newbie managers are equally unpredictable. You'll see a new manager with a grappler, who sets like 70% takedowns because he wants the fight to be taken to the ground, but doesn't understand the concept of absolute sliders.

Bravo Posted June 13, 2016 Report Share Posted June 13, 2016 They aren't meant to save from fight to fight if that's what you are talking about. No it's when I set them, then press update, it reloads the page and sliders go back to the center? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markyosullivan Posted June 13, 2016 Report Share Posted June 13, 2016 Think I've only used them once or twice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hate4thestate Posted June 14, 2016 Report Share Posted June 14, 2016 I use them against one dimensional fighters. Otherwise I just always click the adapt button. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterLeader Posted June 14, 2016 Report Share Posted June 14, 2016 No it's when I set them, then press update, it reloads the page and sliders go back to the center? Probably because you haven't filled in every slider? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Posted June 14, 2016 Report Share Posted June 14, 2016 Wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole. Mostly because if a manager is predictable then based on the blurb in the wiki it'll end up being quite close to whatever I could do anyway, and if a manager is unpredictable it'll end up landing about half way between all their settings and adapt faster than if I set it and ended up totally bloody wrong. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha no what got my ranking going down faster than your mum in Richard Branson's limo is a mix of good fighters getting old, new fighters being meh, and me failing to manage them properly... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
