When to start using new tactics?

[talino7]

I'd like to introduce a new tactic that's related to my primary tactic. When is the best time to start using  in order to decide if I t will work for my team?

Best time to test out a new tactic is in pre-season, imo. The matches aren't important, so the results do not matter. You can watch the tactic in action and tweak aas much as you need to (or want to).

Yup pre-season with all those friendlies.

Pre-Season

There two schools here: One is using a tactic based of what you have. The other is building squad around the tactic.

I'd also say pre-season, with the caveat that it is important to play a range of teams of different strengths, to ensure that the tactic is robust. Since teams are less likely to change things up massively to chase or preserve a result in a friendly, it is important to ensure that the tactic works acceptably across those situations, as best as you can. 

At the very least, I'd suggest playing teams of a similar strength to those that you will encounter once the league kicks off.
