What difficulty are you playing on, and what sides are you coming up against?
I would suggest dropping the difficulty and playing against Head to Head teams that you see aren’t very good so you can get the hang of things and find a good baseline.
And for marking… all of this still applies.

I’m still very confused and it’s frustrating and I still get destroyed by the lowest teams by 100 points I’ve tried easy and medium it’s just not worth it
Then you probably need to try easiest?
Or even play some games in season mode on easiest and master the controls slowly. Just start with the basics first, Kicking, Goal Kicking, Handball, Marking / Tackling. Once you master the basics then add other button combinations in to the mix.
Cool thanks, what ProTeam mode do u suggest for that
There’s some games in coach battles where you can choose the difficulty. If you’re concerned about using up contracts etc until you get better at the controls then games in Season mode (non PT) will be just as good
I’m very good offline I’m just struggling with Proteam and playing that as I’m level 4
It sounds like you’re trying to play online, perhaps stay in the offline modes for now
I’m playing the offline modes but don’t know which one would be best
@stallionsCEO Coach Battles would be best, as you might not want to risk your Ladder Leaders ticket.
Try the easiest difficulty and go from there.
FYI, the level doesn’t mean anything in terms of gameplay
Yeah that’s what I’ve been doing but my players are silver and they run slow and don’t chase the ball and it’s frustrating and discouraging
@stallionsCEO Yeah the silver and bronze teams are a bit frustrating. Just curious, as you mentioned you’ve put in $40, how is the team still silver?
Well I haven’t used my gold or emerald players as I fear they will be useless and not even worth using
@stallionsCEO Definitely won’t be useless, but if you’re finding the easiest difficulty hard with silvers, it might be a bit of practice required.
It’s just ProTeam I struggle with the ai teams. In management, season and single match I’m good. Just don’t understand why it’s different and horrible on Proteam
It shouldn’t be that difficult I don’t think. I liken playing with a Silver/Bronze team a little like using a VFL team in Season Mode
My team and my other cards
lost all matches and my players just run around in circles and run away from defense
@stallionsCEO I’ve noticed it is different but not by a substantial amount.
Would you be able to record an example of the players running away? I get the AI can lead out, but not run away
You have about 80 cards there!
You definitely need to play easiest and get a better gauge on the controls I’d say. You could also play around with your tactics and see if that has any impact.
What level do you play in Season/Management mode?
its really discourged me and i’m passionate about the game. I don’t mind losing matches , just wish the players would at least try and run, try and mark, try and score. When i get the courage to try proteam again i’ll get some footage of what I’m trying to explain.
have you unlocked season 5 in the season pass yet to get the ladder leaders token?
If so, I reckon take your silver team, add a few golds into it as well and head to the ladder leaders section and play the state of origin one.
those teams are 68 overall and game is on easiest, you should get through ok and start picking up some rewards too!
It is important to note though that in Ladder leaders, if you lose a game, you’re out and need to start again with a new token.
