User pass rush tips

[Therebelyell626]

Anyone got any good manual user pash rush tips or videos? Because I am still getting stonewalled on 95% of plays even with X-factor players. Considering people were raving about this during the beta I figured I must be doing something wrong. Maybe we can start a thread and get some good tips in here

Re: User pass rush tips

This sounds ridiculous but I’ve really enjoyed playing pro. Just trying to make it a bit harder currently. But to answer your question the only tip I have is to lower Cpu pass block. When I played all pro I had it around 35 she on all madden around 30. On pro I keep it at 50 and it works great

Maybe this is super obvious, but try to time the snap well, and also the pass rush move. When it goes bold is when you want to hit the button. You won't always win the battles, but it should help.

Thanks man. I am currently doing both of these things but it's just not effective. I don't expect to win them all but guys like von Miller are getting stonewalled by low 70's tackles on all pro simulation

Sorry no videos to show, but I've found something that might help, although I am struggling as well. Use RT to jump the snap, but then get off of it and hit X and push back defender. Then, try engaging RT and A and directionally spin your player off the block. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, which is the way I believe it should be. Good luck!

Re: User pass rush tips

Yeah the pass rush this year seems near impossible. I’ve been playing on All Pro and tinkering with the sliders to find a nice spot with everything. Pass rushing is definitely tougher in this game. If I blitz, it’s always a big completion given up too. I also find when I do get to the QB, they shake off one or two hits no problem and I lose the sack to a completion/throw away.

Re: User pass rush tips

I have found letting the CPU rush and covering creates more pressure than trying to rush myself. There is a timing mechanic on when you should hit the pass rush move, but I am not super sure what the timing is.

Im usually pretty successful as a pass rusher, ill hut r2 to time the snap then let go of r2 and just use the left stick, then hit the pass rush move the second you engage with the offensive linemen seems to give the highest percentage.

But i still agree you get better pressure if you control someone in coverage, it feels like the game punishes your other pass rushers if you rush

Re: User pass rush tips

Clint mentioned it on Twitter that you shouldn't try to do the pass rush move until the the banner goes from dim to fully lit up. That is when you have the chance to have a successful win. Through my own playing I have also noticed that when you do get a win(the win banner will show up over your player) you need to quickly hit speed burst to get away from the blocker or else he will reengage you in the block.

It's tough to pull off, especially with good to poor players, but boy is it rewarding when you get a sack or a hurry. Just like a real player you have to be relentless all game to get pressure when you don't have elite tools.

It is too easy on default. But there’s a realistic pass rush on default and there’s not robo qb. So I’m currently trying to come up with a slider set

This is actually super helpful thanks man

Re: User pass rush tips

When you are doing the move, make sure you hit either left or right on the stick to pick a direction to go. If you just hold the stick straight down or towards the lineman the moves don't work as well. At least it seems that way for me.

This has been a big technique for like 15 years in Madden. I generate WAY more sacks taking away pass options from the QB than I do user-rushing.

It's almost like the AI rewards you with sacks for blanket coverage. Especially if you shadow a wideout on a man-to-man route. Remember to strafe.
