Thanks alot mate I'm new to the game tryna get better and your channel is the perfect place to be, please keep up the good work ! Would love to see more tutorials for new comers to the game!
I do that reaper stick all the time in 21.. the placement of the of the ball in your play sheet screen its showed that for years. You hold L2 and press you user will make a tackle 98% of the time. It breaks your player down to square and a is a conservitve tackle.. really helps! Good content! Oh and also try and ID the mike. Helps to locatw every body on the fields and motion is a great thing in madden!
The last madden I played was on ps2. There’s a couple of tips and tricks (mostly in the first ten listed) that were the big thing on Madden back in the day
This is like the holy grail of Madden videos lol i knew most of this stuff, but I’ll be damned if I wasn’t coming back and watching again to learn a few things haha killer finds
@@SpruceGooseTV ... can you explain why Free Safeties are swapped with Strong Safeties in Madden? It wasn't always this way, & I cannot find an answer for it. Yes, safeties will play free or strong positions but, the Strong generally plays in the box (hence strong) & typically the free is the deeper & better cover safety. It's every team that has FS listed as Strong Safeties. Is it because the game automatically puts the best wide receiver at the WR1 (SE - Split End aka X) vs. the WR2 (Flanker aka Z)?
Hey man! I don't think it makes any difference, you can hold sprint before the ball gets there! The more important thing is selecting the right type of catch. So in open space, RAC catching (holding X or Square) will make a big difference for keeping your momentum
@@SpruceGooseTV Thank you for replying back! I wanted to ask if there perhaps you should not sprint the moment that your receiver catches the ball, similar to how you shouldn't sprint with your running back behind the line of scrimmage. I was curious to see if there was a similar rule to follow.
@@co81385 I don't think it makes a difference, and in fact if it's a situation where you're clicking onto your receiver before the ball comes in, then you probably do want to be holding sprint even before the catch since otherwise by clicking on you'd be slowing your receiver down!
Say what you will about the newer Madden games, but I absolutely love freeform passing. I can finally hit those tight window throws that would always get picked off in older games
I was hoping you mention the L2 button where you run and see a open hole to right if you are running to the left. You hold L2 flick your stick to that direction of the open hole
@@presidential3228 it’s called hard cut when you run the ball. If you run outside handoff to the right and you see a big hole at B gap. You hard cut towards the open hole
This is good shit my man real talk i already use and knew alot of this old school long time madden guy here but alot of new features now and i learned a few and i appreciate that cuz very few have used things against me that i didnt know how they was doing it . Thanks bro Be well
Just a heads up, they sadly patched Tip #11 just a few days after I posted this video lol. I asked a dev about it and *supposedly* it was a mistake, so hopefully one day we'll get it back.
@@SpruceGooseTV it was a mistake to tell you what hash you're on?! That's unfathomable. The only mistake was that it was so subtle in the first place. This game, man...
Hey man! Cheers for the tips! I have a series idea, i know its not for most but theres is basically 0 content for this. Im european, got the game on EA Pass and trying to understand both the concepts of the console game as the actual game of football. Id suggest (and ask) for a basic series aiming for anyone who is brand new to the sport. Because of EA play i think many more people will start playing in Europe, and UFC and NBA are already WAY bigger, so this could grow a lot aswel. Long ass comment, if you get thru it, thanks ahaha
Dude, I watched another guy's video of the same exact tips, he only had 10 of the 20 you had though. I noticed though that he posted his 8 hours ago and you posted this over a month ago. You rock man. I'm sorry though that your on your game and the real deal and others copy you and get more subs
I knew most of this except the QB giving himself up. I was trying to figure out if there was yet another undocumented way to do this and now I know. I don't care for speed boost and instant speed because that goes against the RATINGS that are supposed to matter and it goes against PHYSICS, but hey... I see this was competitive but was the level of gameplay: All-Madden? I ask because those high bullet passes, just like yours are intercepted most of the time on Competitive/All-Madden. 🤔🤔 Other than that because it does not hype the faulty game, I have to say this is a good video for information for those who are new to the game who aren't don't know these features.
i knew a lot except some surprising ones, is weak box new? i used to play m21 very hard and would send 3 or 2 a lot and still could stop run but this year every time i send 2 im toast
Weak box was reworked! Last year it was based on formation, so you could send three and be fine. This year if you only send two or if you pass commit then you're in big trouble!
@@SpruceGooseTV dude i was top .1% in mut 2 years ago and i came back after taking a year off and i was getting BULLIED no wonder LMAO im like big nickel can not stop the run more like i cant double hard/curl flat my ends anymore lmao!!! good looks and thanks for the response
You are legit , man. Every other RUclipsr gives instruction fragments. The only one that is thorough like you is Eric Rayweather . They're guarding tips tighter than than colonel Sanders concealing the chicken recipe.
Nope! The idea is that the very moment the ball is snapped you already have the sprint & direction inputs on the controller, but it doesn't matter what order you press them
@@SpruceGooseTV so the direction you point the left analog is the direction you go? And if yes then you could essentially put your controller down and your user will go where you pointed when the ball is snapped if I am reading this right
Hey, could you give me an example of a speed boost on defense and offense. Since the last patch.. my Ws turned to consistent Ls. Every time they patch the game my game goes down hill. I was using RB to get that additional speed burst, and obviously you cannot use RT until you're in open spaces. So is there an example of a speed burst that can be used right now. I can't keep up with receivers and get ran down by the d every time I get rare open pass. I notice my opponent catches every damn thing, including the passes I throw. I'm just sick of it, man. I figure you're honest enough to give me an answer to the best of your ability.
Use the same formations as much as possible with great balance. Down and distance need to be understood completely for avg success. Noticing defenses presnap weakness will help audibles to gain bigger. Again same look helps. 2nd and under four is always good to try deep route plays from play action. Run draw plays on passing downs that numbers are good for you. Create imbalances for defense motioning odd positions that natural route or block action on different side is big. Also wr or anyone kept motion with snap inside tackle pocket to give Xtra blocker on guard pulls plays backside can make longer runs. Run on zone first as mindset to get them out portion in zone if they stay with it. Use all three downs to get goal. Run plays in series to set up the one you want Run or pass ten yards or greater.
Its almost too much for me... especially when im about to run a play... it would take alot of hours to get comfortable using all these features every play
Been playing Madden for 20+ years, high ranked every year and some of these were new for me. Thank you.
The intro started off strong then it became basically a beginners manual which for a 4 month video I don’t blame him for
This is the first time that I've seen the Reaper Stick explained, awesome. I was wondering how it's done. Thanks, Spruce.
It's the old double juke
This why I’m subbed man I know most of these tips but I’m glad ur helping out the madden community for new players 💯
Great video, taughgt me about everything I was looking for!
Your so underrated bro, no new tips for me but I’m a super sweat. Congrats on the tournament, David is a beast
I stopped pre ordering my iPhone to watch this beautiful video
GOOD
You should stop buying iPhones period invest your money into something better. The phone you're on now is probably still great.
No you didn’t

bro goes over plays from madden pros and now tips?! With only 20k+ subs?! Dude you deserve WAY more! Underrated madden RUclipsr right here
Been playing for years and didn’t know half of these. Thanks!
The last madden I played was on ps2. There’s a couple of tips and tricks (mostly in the first ten listed) that were the big thing on Madden back in the day
I never knew about giving yourself up as a Qb
Ever
Now we're all going to do it one time in practice mode and then never again.
@@taysomhill2841 lmao and only think about it right after you coulda used it in a game 😂
Thank you sir I learned a lot. Gonna have to watch a couple more times to process it all!
Dude, I love how you told us both buttons for example: “A on Xbox or X on PlayStation”
Football wizard dropping hot knowledge. Thank you for this.
Excellent video. I haven’t seen any other RUclipsr doing great tips like this.
Flick stick right or left for run play
Smart route, select receiver and press rb
Don't press sprint intill open space
Point and hold your right stick
Wow I learned a couple of stuff , thanks!
This is like the holy grail of Madden videos lol i knew most of this stuff, but I’ll be damned if I wasn’t coming back and watching again to learn a few things haha killer finds
Yeah that's mad 101 if a cornerback is up against your wide receiver go deep if he's backed off your wide receiver do curls or slants
I didn’t know about the sprinting as running back makes the line shed faster
If your receiver icons go away you can pump fake to bring them back up
A few of this I had no idea of, new subscriber 🥃🥃
Been waiting for one of your next videos.
This was actually pretty useful & I've been playing Madden for a very long time. Thanks!
Thanks John! I'm glad it was helpful

can I use these in madden 22 also?
great tips! thank you👍
I have a question about the sprint button! When passing, after your receiver catches a pass, when should you start holding the sprint button?

Great tips. Learning more daily.
Great video sir!
nice bro, learned a few new moves

Do these work on all maddens or just 23 (specifically 20 cuz that’s what i got)
How did I not know about smart route 😲😲😲😲
Thanks for the tips
How do you move a corner to slot
Can I use these tips for current gen?
The latest patch screwed up tip #11. I can't tell which hash I'm on anymore on the play call screen.
You're right....dang it EA 🥲 I reported it to them, hopefully it gets put back to the way it was!
@@SpruceGooseTV I appreciate ya my guy
The fact that Madden refused to put the Free Form Passing in the pc version is mind boggling. Really makes it difficult to even play the game.
Then get a console
The two or more blitzing guys to prevent weak box is so helpful. Although it does reassure me that the game is stupid broken and I’m not THAT bad 🤣
What game is this on?
Call of Duty
This is a goldmine of useful info!
does the pass accuracy work on old gen?

You are legit , man. Every other RUclipsr gives instruction fragments. The only one that is thorough like you is Eric Rayweather . They're guarding tips tighter than than colonel Sanders concealing the chicken recipe.
Appreciate it man! Eric is the GOAT!
the recipe has been leaked tho
is this just for next gen?
To get the instant speed burst with the user does it matter the order you go in with the holding R2 with pointing the left analog on any direction?
Nope! The idea is that the very moment the ball is snapped you already have the sprint & direction inputs on the controller, but it doesn't matter what order you press them
@@SpruceGooseTV so the direction you point the left analog is the direction you go? And if yes then you could essentially put your controller down and your user will go where you pointed when the ball is snapped if I am reading this right
Can you throw a high pass in classic ?
2:40 do they block shed quicker if you do this in previous maddens as well?
You can’t free form on current gen can you ? This video was dope 🤝🏽
Unfortunately it's only on next gen
Amazing array of tips in this video. I love it. Great video.
Thanks Matthew 🙂
Do most of these work on ps4?
Babe wake up new spruce video 🤪
More than half of these don’t even work unless you have new gen consoles.
How do you chew clock on the new Xbox one
Haven’t played madden since 2004. I need all I can Get 😂
amazing video
Appreciate it man!
Can’t believe u beat pavan
Here's the only tip you need.
IF YOU'RE STILL PLAYING MADDEN YOU ARE THE PROBLEM WITH GAMING.
Is this for madden 23 only or does it work for 22
Madden 23
How do you stop to jump ball glitch

maybe they are bettee than u at the game… ever thiught of that
A lot of these work on EA college football 14 also.
Defend the option in coach adjustments works when it wants to lol..but I guess that's madden 23
Pro tip - spend 1k on god squad
Its almost too much for me... especially when im about to run a play... it would take alot of hours to get comfortable using all these features every play
How do you get the game so colorful?
Filters on my recording software!
Eh just move the stick in the same direction keep em guessing
You didnt have to do dan jones like that though 😪
2:26 is this just next gen?
Do a video about audible's
This video is money
watched the whole video. i don’t even play madden
Friend, how to do fair catch signal on pc?
Y or Triangle on a controller. If you're on mouse and keyboard it's whatever the button is for aggressive catch.
