The vertical playbook has its benefits along with its flaws, utilising positions to match key attributes is the most effective way to improve your performance, I haven’t played much OD the past 2 months due to tireless disconnects and the black screen but when I do play, it’s top 100 or nothing. Now having a fast QB is essential for Vertical, mainly because A LOT of the deep routes and short slants require development, they aren’t quick dumps. In truth, getting Newton and Mahomes made the vertical playbook streets ahead of the other 3 and made forgotten plays legitimate contenders now. Starting with a few of my favourite pass plays, TE Slot Cross, unflipped requires an immediate hard scramble to the right, and a deep bullet on the run to the streak, (Absolute Money) one of Mcarthys plays Out N Up is my favourite play in the game, 3 options, depending on the ROLB movement either a bullet to the streak, a wide open TE or later developing crossing flex. Double Under is also an incredible play, drop back with the QB to avoid bullet into the D line, and fire to either the flex or the left go route. Once you have the timing down it’s a 1 play TD ever time. PA slot under and PA post are both great, especially early on without the x2 activated for easy yds, SUto the crossing receiver, requires some QB manouvering as often blitzed, and PA Spot to the TE. Some goal line plays (as often caught, instead of wasting run plays) flipped deep post to the RB, always open or Double Under bullet to the crossing TE. I tend not to use quick slants anymore until late in the match due to coverage being zone early on in the match, blitz and Man is an easy pass to the flex.
