[@jbrown3933]

Morning! When I sign up on my personal computer, can I still look at the video on my phone?

[@jbrown3933]

I was able to join through my personal PC. The only content you put out this far is the Run and Gun playbook for members only, or is there something else I need to be looking for? Thx

[@verbal718]

@@jbrown3933 you can definitely watch videos from your phone after you have signed up via desktop. There will be a "membership" tab with all the members videos.

[@deadrabitsps3212]

Thanks im run& gun all day

[@josephellis3349]

THIS FORMATION WILL BRING ALOT OF HEAT AND COVERAGE BUT GOOD FORMATION THOUGH I ROCK THIS OFFENSIVE PLAYBOOK RUN N GUN PLAYBOOK IT'S STRAIGHT FIRE

[@princepill]

I've been waiting for this all year thanks Deuce

[@205jprince]

This dude so underrated

[@justadadwholikesgaming5524]

Amazing breakdown

[@verbal718]

Now this is how you re-introduce yourself! Love the way you broke this down. I'm using the ravens at the moment. Hopefully these concepts will translate over! Great work Deuce!

[@grumpyoleman61]

Great methodology this is helpful. Everyone is obsessed with 1 play tds. I gave up, especially on line. It seems that players come out of nowhere and intercept, especially in MUT. In routes, slants and curls with short runs are the way to go. Keep up the good word

[@Alex-xw4ur]

As soon as you showed the soccer field I thought "he's going Pep on us...and I'm gonna have to join his channel." Seriously excited for this - I've played around with the idea a little bit out of the spread pb and looking forward to see what you have cooked up!

[@PerfectPerfect23]

Thank god something new

[@dmwash85ify]

Good to have you back Deuce!

[@GreeneryForTheScenery]

I found this playbook yesterday its so clutch for my playstyle

[@coreyharrell1112]

Deuce I'm loving the videos! Are there any particular abilities needed at QB to run this smoothly? Like, would a gunslinger QB be better at this in regs?

[@talktomenice3295]

Deuce you are very much needed in the Madden community just for reasons like this. Good shit my boy

[@TheBlackHorseman]

Love run n gun

[@malaisewheelchairfitness2460]

Great playbook. You can live in the 3 5 wide formations all game.

[@jqmoney5878]

The man

[@jalenw7433]

Great video. I won’t run this but it’s a great video. Stuff like this would just get blitz spam on all madden comp because it’s a headache and requires thinking lol

[@jchoi1223]

Deuce stuff never gets old. Preaches fundamentals and concepts. Love to see it.

[@KyriCunningham]

That jailbreak switch up caught me off guard, that was nasty

[@lester2144]

Where’s the join button

[@lester2144]

I have iOS

[@Fowlodogg21]

Real good scheme. Any good run plays out of this playbook to have a balance offense

[@deuceclose]

I've been running QB draws and read options. One of the next videos on this will be about the run game

[@rogerrrabitt]

you can put the red route on fade and he wins everytime against man

[@fosterhomex7356]

Im a 1:37 in watching this, and he brings up Pep. As a lifelong Barca fan, i just know this video gonna be great l

[@TheQBoogie]

Nooooo deuce nobody gotta know this is the best formation in madden 😭😭u are too good

[@jalenbirch3820]

HEAT

[@jarvisbattle32]

My only pb I use

[@CharmCityRob]

The only PB I’ve used for years.

[@kb1515ful]

What free form passing settings are you using?

[@deuceclose]

Far 10/20. But I don't use it often in games

[@Haroldjr94]

are u doing a match breakdown again?

[@deuceclose]

Likely, yeah. Maybe one of my next videos

[@falconsvick7767]

What formation is this

[@TheQBoogie]

This with is PA zone read out of gun doubles ggs

[@treystyles9161]

Run n Shoot is best pb in the game.. if you have speed @ wr, common sense, & pass lead elite give it a go 🔥

[@milesjones9853]

Good for current gen?

[@deuceclose]

Not sure. Sorry!

[@princepill]

Deuce we still on that eBook bro please lol

[@deuceclose]

Coming tonight 🔥

[@princepill]

@@deuceclose Im refreshing every hour lol

[@deuceclose]

Was hoping to have it out earlier but it has been a busy week. Will hopefully be out around 8 EST

[@Weaz-]

How do you get it?

[@deuceclose]

There should be a join button underneath the video. Doesn't show up on iOS though

[@A-Bomb401]

11 minutes before anything to do with actual madden

[@deuceclose]

Sincere apologies!

[@elaurant01]

wow how busted is that quarters.

[@deuceclose]

It's pretty bad lol. It's not a good idea against empty in general though. Better to use Palms

[@kingzfan2000]

I dont know if you are a regs or a mut player, and Im saying this as a fan, but its always hard for me to put much stock into anything from a content creator when all you see from them is plays run in practice mode. Practice mode is not MUT and I dont know why anyone would be paying for anything just to play regs, but I guess there are guys who do that. What ive learned over the last few years since I started MUT is that a lot of this practice mode stuff simply does not work at all when you boot up MUT and play against another human. Practice mode doesnt account for the fact that there is a user on the other side making defensive adjustments and cover certain routes himself and it doesnt account for the fact that cpu controlled players are better in MUT. Now maybe you understand this and you know its not as effective in MUT which is why you dont show actual gameplay, and if thats the case I get it and Im not gonna knock your hustle. But if you know this stuff really works in MUT against actual people, I think it would do wonders for you to add some actual gameplay to your videos. For me when it comes to actually buying madden content, my biggest thing is have I seen this person actually putting in work against other humans and using the stuff he is teaching at a high level; because really literally anyone can go into practice mode and show a bunch of stuff that works against the cpu, when in reality just having a human controlling one player really takes away a significant amount of the stuff shown in practice mode. Im still gonna rock with you and watch your content, but seeing actual in game ultimate team footage on a consistent basis is what makes the difference between me just watching and hitting the like button, and actually paying money for something. There are people who will pay, but I cant pay money for something from someone who I have never seen any actual h2h MUT content from. I understand not everyone plays MUT but that is a significant portion of the madden community

[@deuceclose]

Hey I really appreciate the nice comment and the feedback. You make very good points and your opinion is definitely valid. I don't do gameplay videos simply because I am extremely limited in time and I want to put out videos that I enjoy making

[@coreystephens3003]

I understand you giving information and everything but 7 mins off talkin like come on bruh

[@coreystephens3003]

Correction 11 minutes
