Tough Marker

UnreleasedStill being reviewed

In one sentence

Not released yet. A defender the computer does not let drop as deep: his depth limit behind the team reference line is 5 m instead of 6 m (like High Line Master).

Who does this affect?

Only while the computer controls him. Found on: Compatible positions in the code: CB, LB, RB, DMF. Not released yet (the game's style data marks it unreleased); no card has it.

How it works

The code is already in the game. In the team-shape code that places a back-line defender, his depth limit behind the team reference line is 5 m instead of 6 m (the same as High Line Master). In one defensive tracking check two weights that other players get are not given to him. The style is read in a few more defending checks. Details may change before release.

When it applies

Only at CB, LB, RB or DMF.

Without it

A defender without the style may drop 6 m behind the reference line.
