All Secrets of Gameplay Setting
Introduction
Hello Believers,
If you want to improve your gameplay—whether it’s VSA, H2H, or AI Matches—your GAMEPLAY SETTINGS matter a lot. You can access these settings by clicking the gear icon in the top right corner of your game menu. Once you’re there, select Gameplay Settings and you’ll see multiple options that we’ll break down below.

Types of Gameplay Settings
Now, there’s no single best setting that will instantly make you a better player. You need to test different options to see what works best for your style. To make this easier, we’ve divided gameplay settings into two types of users: Fast Players and Slow Players.
In-game, players typically fall under one of these two categories based on their characteristics. Here’s how to know which type you are:
Characterstics of Fast Paced Players
If you’re a fast player, your style includes quick passing, always looking to get the ball to attackers in space, and creating quick counter-attacks. You probably rely on pace to beat defenders and score quickly. If your goal is to strike fast and often, you’re definitely a fast-paced player.
Characteristics of Slow Paced Players
If you’re a slow player, you prefer short, tiki-taka passing, keeping more possession, and patiently waiting for your opponent to rush so you can exploit open spaces. You focus more on tactics, avoid quick counters, and enjoy a possession-based approach. That makes you a slow-paced player.
Now, for each type of player, we’ve listed the ideal settings whether to turn them ON or OFF based on feedback from experienced players. Check them out below and adjust accordingly!
Setting | Fast Player (🚀) | Slow Player (🐢) |
---|---|---|
Virtual Stick Size | ON (depends on your gameplay) | OFF (depends on your gameplay) |
Floating Virtual Stick | OFF (depends on your gameplay) | ON (depends on your gameplay) |
Button Size | ON (depends on your gameplay) | ON (depends on your gameplay) |
Advanced Passing | ON | ON |
Tap/Double-Tap Gesture Passes | OFF | OFF |
Fast Power Up Rate | ON | OFF |
Crossing Assistance | ON | ON |
Player Auto-Switch | ON | ON |
Player Auto-Switch Mode | OFF | OFF |
Contextual Dribble | ON | ON |
Most H2H players prefer a fast gameplay style, but it depends on the style you want to try or on which style you have mastery.
