Wallpassing can be very useful its one of the best ways to get a pass around a defender and in front of the net when a dirrect route is covered. its also sometimes usefull in faking out a keeper

Boosting enemy players is useful for both defense and offense. but becareful not to boost recklessly. it can give them an advantage if not used propperly. timing is the key!

The wallpass-thing is so not gonna happen in most professional games, or should definitely not be used as a regular tactic =\

Both defense and keepers won't suck that much ;)

Also the defender in the 2nd-last picture (edit: defense picture*) will not be able to volley any of the balls, if the attacker would pass right now, the defender couldn't do anything :)

edit: Anyway..gj overall \o/
I like :o get cata or someone else to put them up in http://www.db-community.com? :)

Where they probably won't get so easily forgotten ;)

i'm gonna make more. my ftp program don't work here at work ;P so i'll snag them when i get home and make a better popup picture book noob guide. yeah i guess that D thing isnt the best way to get possitioned. but well. its just to show he's slowing the offensive rush by being in a more neutral area then straight out covering the open man.

great work, this is simple and effective, newbies will be bothered to read this.

Once you finished it, talk to Catalyst idd :).

this isn't good for all maps. but some smaller sized maps its a very valid tactic.

curving shots has alot of uses. passing it around defenders, faking out a keeper etc.

Volley has an 'e' in it...

Maybe save images as gifs instead of jpgs? (better visual quality for low colour images)

Otherwise looking good...

Nice work Inphidel.

Messy - missing on purpose to perform a set is a very effective skill. It's not all about keepers/defenders sucking. The attacker must adapt to the skill level of the defence/keeper. Done correctly you can burn anyone. Missing is often more effective than trying to score.
