You are wasting your time trying to improve your tactics this way.

FM 2k26 tactics IP geegen press 4231 (default) OP 433 DM (default)

I have run 12 matches in new fm with the base tactics (no instruction change). The same tactics use in all simulation.

THIS IS ONLY PREMIER LEAGUE MATCHES INTO ACCOUNT

Sim 1 Spurs 5w 2d 5l after 15 matches 5w 4d 6l SACKED
Sim 2 Spurs 2w 6d 4l after 18 matches 3w 9d 6l SACKED
Sim 3 Spurs 7w 1d 4l after 18 matches 9w 2d 7l
Sim 4 Spurs 6w 3d 3l after 17 matches 10w 4d 3l
Sim 5 Spurs 8w 0d 4l after 18 matches 12w 1d 5l

Can someone test any tactics across whole season as I would like to know how does it work in new FM.

Like i said on my page, the tests are the same but its flawed to create problems such as no training stops the tactical familiarity normally achieved quickly. Forced 11 causes injuries or players who are part injured will play. Its a bad testing method as it does everything to work against the tactic/squad.

It doesnt really test anything the way your doing it just that the game has variables like injuries but doesnt reflect of the effectiveness of the tactic whoevers tactic your testing.

You cant force negatives and use them as a way of saying a method of testing doesnt work. Your negatives might be the same but as soon as you remove the squads ability to train the tactic meaning they perform badly this lowers morale and then results are worse.

A good tactic once tactical familiarity is achieved through normal training will get better than expected results, improving morale and helping the team overachieve. Your testing method just proves that morale and injuries can mean varied results but removed the tactic out ot the test by not training it so theres no reflection on its ability.

Yes if you have a bad tactic/an untrained tactic you are leaving results to luck. Good ones help you avoid this and thats the reason people test and release them
