OSM Counter Tactics

A lot of managers search for “the best OSM tactics”, but the real secret is **counter tactics**: choosing a setup that specifically punishes the opponent formation you’re facing.

This page works like your tactics library, but with one key difference: counter tactics are grouped by opponent formation. First pick the opponent formation, then you choose the best counter tactic based on your strength bucket.

Tip: Use Overwhelming / Much strong counters when you’re stronger, and Weak / Much weak counters when the opponent is stronger.

How to Use Counter Tactics Correctly

Counter tactics work best when your choices are consistent: don’t mix an attacking plan with defensive shapes, and don’t play high tempo against stronger opponents. If you’re weaker, prioritize defensive stability first, then counter-attacking efficiency.

Plan Smarter. Scout Better. Win More Matches.
