POLL: How did you do on the tourney?

It seems that people had more trouble in this tourney than others.  I thought I'd do horrible since I didn't have many PA counters and my soft counter is only 6%, but I did okay with 15-6-1.  I know there are other threads about how much the tourney sucks, but I prefer this poll version because it talks more about the results and successes.

I added a bonus poll about the prizes.

Had a lot of low scoring games. Faced a lot of teams with pa hard counters early on. Got my 15 and done. 15-3 on my alt which is 84 ovr. Much easier for my 84 ovr alt lol.

not doing so well.. only up to 10 or 11 wins so far, with a ton of losses meh... im not a fan of the pa pass playbook

I went 15-10.  A lot of obvious plays weren't countered, but I got hit hard by low percentage soft counters popping up 2 out of 4 plays per drive.

Oddly enough, I went 10-9 at first, and then finished 5-1.

I won one match 0-0 hahahaha, I lost 3 this time on my way to 15

I am grinding through and winning slightly more than losing.....

But I dont see why all the negativity of Tourney Formats.   There are plenty of legit things to Moan and Complain about with this game.  Why whine about Tourneys!

15-10, little better than last couple weeks. Getting PB trophies, cash and elite player. Hoping to pull Jenkins and train up or snipe Taylor as price drops under 800k.

15-5-1

Running a 100 over team.  About 10 easy wins where their counter game was weak. 

The other 11 we're against good opponents, came down to whose counters hit on the 2 point conversion as they we're smart enough to avoid the most common/countered plays. 

PA fly seems to be a low countered play no matter the opponent. I know I didn't have it countered either. 

Are tournaments ran on pro difficulty?

I prefer the ones that force you to dive into the playbook. Some of those tourneys have produced "secret plays" for me that I otherwise would not bother to use. I have a good GP for this, so that will help.

Why did everyone play so early?

Maybe 15-6, I don't know my exact loses but I did get 1 game crash. Almost no one I faced had PA Pass hard counters until my very last matches.

15-3. All the credit goes to my defense and gameplan though.

I was shocked at the lack of counters on the pa drives. The 5 losses I had were players that basically had everything but pa boot shut down and that play shuts its self down lol. At least i didnt get any ties this week.

15-2, PA countered all across and PA Pin Deep and PA Slide .. along with occasional PA Clear out with good prayers :)

Yea, I totally agree that it makes you try new plays.  It's pretty much free to do them all and you get decent prizes.  People who complain need to learn the playbook better and they'd enjoy it more.

15-1. i used 9 pa counters. i played early and some of the teams i faced didn't even counter the basic PA plays like fl middle, clearout, deep atk.

 Good example. This is a play I pretty much don't use. I'll test it out in H2H. Thanks!
