Long shot
The Long shot special event is fairly straightforward and most people are aware of how it works. Everyone has probably seen the “Andy Anderson found a gap in the home sides central defense scoring with a long shot” message pop up. The higher your player’s scoring and set pieces are the better chance he has to score on this event. Any player can score off a long shot, but due to their scoring skills your forwards are probably the ones most likely to.

That is also why some consider set pieces to be more valuable on forwards than on other players.

Hattrick Announcements
| Long shots tactic ready for use | 2009-01-13 |
| The long shots tactics are now ready to test in friendlies. We're including it this week already as a last beta test on this new feature. When the new season starts in two weeks you can use this tactic in all your games. Long shots is an attacking option for teams who have problems scoring on regular side/middle attacks, but it could also be a tactical option for any team facing a really strong defense. How the long shots tactic works can be found in the manual.
There are currently no teams in Hattrick which can take full advantage of this new tactic right away (and deliberately so), even though teams with good set pieces skills are in a better starting position than other teams. With time, we hope to see managers build their teams with good shooters. | |
