Mastering the Run Guide – Madden NFL 19
Below you will find some tips and tricks that will help you make your runs smoother and quicker in Madden NFL 19.
Do not Always Use Turbo
Turbo has been in Madden NFL for a long time and players are familiar with this mechanic. However, Madden NFL 19 has some changes done to the Turbo mechanic and they need to get comfortable with it. While you are running with the ball, if you do not hold it all the time, you will be able to turn around more quickly and sharply.
If you press and hold the turbo, you will notice that the player will take a large circle to turn around this is because he is running much faster and has tightened his grip on the ball as well. Try it without holding. You will notice that the player can now take sharp turns more quickly and the run is smoother as well. So we recommend that you avoid using turbo all the time especially when you want to take sharp turns and move short distances quickly where you might need to turn quickly.
The best strategy to use turbo is to tap it instead of holding it. You must make it your habit to turn and then tap Turbo for a quick boost. This will make your movement much smoother and crispier allowing you more freedom while running between the defense. EA has made the turbo mechanic more realistic by adding more weight to the players and this is the reason they cannot turn or cut around players quickly while running at full speed.
Choose the Perfect Run Play Formation
When it comes to running, you must try to run in the direction where you get more space easily as well. Choosing a good formation that has good blocking is very beneficial for this situation as your players can block the opposition and give you a clear space to run freely and cover as much yards as you can in a single run.
Just like other plays, you can also choose a specific Run Play formation from the settings of the match. This is very important as all your players will be located at the specified locations where you want them to be to cover the most yards in each play. We recommend that you go for the stretch play formation.
Using any type of halfback stretch is essential and we recommend that you use it on the short side of the field. The blocking is much better when you use it on the short side of the field and it will allow you to gain more yards easily during each run play. Always run to the short side of the field, as this will allow you to gain the most yards in a single run.
Keep an eye out for Enemy Formation
Just like your own formation, you must keep an eye out for your enemy’s formation as well. Their formation will clearly show where they are focusing more. It could be on the right side or it could be on the left side. Right at the start of the run, make sure that you pick the side to run where the enemy formation is not focusing much.
Pick the left side if you think that the enemy formation is more focused on the right side’s defense and vice versa. This will give you an advantage as they will take more time to stop you and you will be able to get some really good yards in a single run. Watch out for stacked defenders and pick the other side to run.
Always Go for Formations with Two or Three Tight Ends
Picking up a formation that has two or three tight ends is also beneficial for each run play as it will give you more players to block the opposition. This will ensure that you get more clear space as you are putting out better blocking. These run sets are much better than other ones and we recommend that you opt for the one giving you the most blocking.
You can go for a single I formation as well and if you are good enough, you can probably make it out and score a touchdown as well but having a double or triple I formation will give you much better and consistent blocking along your path and you will have much easier time getting out and scoring a touchdown.
