Here’s a guide to the best FIFA 23 custom tactics and formations to implement so you can dominate Ultimate Team.

FIFA 23’s Ultimate Team will continue to attract a ton of players around the world, so here are the best custom tactics and formations with player instructions to stay several steps ahead of the competition.

Optimizing your FIFA 23 Ultimate Team squad can take you to new heights. While buying better players for your squad is one way of optimizing, there’s also a free method that even experienced players tend to overlook.

In FIFA 22, EA Sports gave players complete control of their tactical setup and the same is to be expected in FIFA 23. With the proper tactics, formation, and player instructions to best suit your squad, you’ll notice a major improvement when it comes to your FUT results.

If you’re striving to dominate FUT Champions in FIFA 23, then utilizing the best custom tactics is necessary.

Putting in a defensive tackle that stops a scoring opportunity definitely comes with a lot of satisfaction, but in FIFA, there’s nothing quite like the exhilaration of moving up the pitch with the focus of getting the ball in the back of the net.

There are plenty of ways to attack in FIFA 23 and you can set your team up to align with your preferred style of play. Whether you prefer to emulate Manchester City‘s possession-heavy brand of football or Liverpool’s heavy metal direct style of play, there’s a style for every type of player.

The first thing you’ll have to consider when setting up your defensive tactics is the positioning of your back line. If your defensive line boasts a ton of pace, you could get away with playing a high line and applying maximum pressure on the opposing team.

If you’re not keen on leaving too much space between your defenders and goalkeeper then you can set your width and depth to be a little deeper. In addition, you’ll pair this positioning with one of the defensive styles below.

Keep in mind that your width and depth should correlate with a defensive style. For example, it would be counterintuitive to set up a high line only to enforce the Drop Back tactic on defense.

If you’re new to the FIFA franchise then you’re certainly going to want to experiment with different formations. After a few games, you’ll start to pick up on your preferred playstyle which will allow you to stick to a formation and set up custom tactics.

Here are the best custom tactics and player instructions you’ll be able to implement in FIFA 23, with a few formations we think you should test.

Until we get our hands on FIFA 23, we could only speculate on which CBs are the best. For this reason, looking at the highest-rated center-backs before FIFA 23 is released is a great place to start, and we’ve put together our predictions.

Following the official reveal of the FIFA 23 ratings we’ll update this article with the highest-rated center-backs you can buy in Ultimate Team. We’ll also put together our recommended lists for the best meta center-backs and best cheap center-backs that will instantly improve your FUT squad.

It was reported that Amazon have put in a formal offer to acquire EA, but further reports conflict the claim.

Amazon has reportedly put in a formal offer to purchase EA and acquire major franchises such as Apex Legends and FIFA, but conflicting reports claim no offer will be made.

With some of the biggest publishers in the gaming space being acquired over the past year, Electronic Arts were rumored to be next up. As first reported by Puck and spotted by VGC, EA “has been persistent in pursuing a sale,” which grew “more emboldened in the wake of the Microsoft-Activision deal.”

According to GLHF’s Kirk McKeand’s sources, Amazon will announce that it has put in a formal offer to acquire EA, bringing huge franchises such as Apex Legends and FIFA under its banner.

However, CNBC now has countered the report, claiming that “Amazon is not going to make a bid for Electronic Arts.”

CNBC’s David Faber said he’s “talked to some people who actually know if there was something going on and they say there’s nothing going on.” While he confirmed EA has been “considering what it might do,” he said that “this is not going to happen today … unless the people involved previously have no idea.”

Amazon has already entered the gaming space with hit MMOs New World and Lost Ark, and is even developing a Fallout TV show. If the acquisition does go through as reported by GLHF, then Amazon will own some of the world’s biggest and most popular gaming franchises.

This news comes after major acquisitions over the past few months, with Microsoft acquiring both Bethesda and Activision, and Sony buying Destiny developer Bungie for a whopping $3.6 billion.

While Amazon’s EA acquisition has been made all the more unlikely after CNBC’s conflicting report, we’ll be sure to keep you updated as the story develops.

The midfield position in FIFA 23 Ultimate Team is classified into three categories: CDM, CM, and CAM. The formation you prefer to utilize in FUT will dictate which of the best midfielders you’ll look to fit into your squad.
