Extreme TI

[Cal585]

I was looking at some of the preset tactics like the infamous Gegenpress and thinking how many maxed out instructions are included for things like closing down, DL, LoE etc. When I try creating my own tactics I tend to try and stick in the middle ground, maybe moving things up a notch, playing on Positive mentality instead of Attacking (or even Very Attacking) or more urgent pressing but rarely go all the way let alone on multiple related values. Wondering if others do tend to go a bit stronger on their TI and whether that works for them? It seems to work in the case of Gegenpress while my custom versions are perhaps a little too tame.

I personally never use extreme TIs and have never played any gegenpress-like tactic. Moreover, I extremely rarely use even more urgent pressing, let alone extremely urgent.
