    How to Quickly Raise Team Attack & Defense in Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road

    Aside from the impressive cutscenes, Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road makes your progress more challenging by setting team Attack (AT) and Defense (DF) thresholds. These limits prevent you from rushing through the story too easily. You’ll need to think strategically and do some quick calculations if you want to optimize your team’s ratings.

    Moving at a steady pace is usually the best approach to make sure you don’t miss any opportunities. However, there are small advantages hidden in your inventory that can help you level up your AT and DF ratings faster. Here are the top methods to improve these stats quickly.

    What Are Your Attack & Defense Ratings?
    Your team’s overall strength on both attack and defense is shown in the bottom left of your Team Dock menu. These are split into two separate ratings:

    1. Team Attack (AT)
    2. Team Defense (DF)

    As you progress through the story mode, these ratings will limit your advancement. Reaching the required thresholds for AT and DF can be tough without grinding, unless you take advantage of all available ways to boost your team.

    How To Raise Your Team’s Attack And Defense
    There are several key factors that influence your team’s overall AT and DF:

    • Player Levels
    • Gear
    • The Abilearn Board

    The combined level of your players determines your team’s minimum AT and DF. To level up your players quickly, try doing the following:

    • Complete side quests
    • Play practice matches
    • Play story matches
    • Use experience (EXP) items from your inventory

    Increasing your levels is an essential first step, unlocking more features and making your team stronger.

    How To Improve Players Using The Abilearn Board
    The Abilearn Board is a valuable tool to upgrade your players. Reaching certain levels on this board grants bonus stats, which directly boost your team’s overall AT and DF. Improving your star players like Briar and Raika first can help you score goals more effectively because of their higher potential ceilings.

    To further enhance your players, you can equip them with gear. Like skill beans, gear can be auto-equipped across your team by selecting “Equip All” in the Team Dock menu, saving you time from manual adjustments.

    How To Equip Gear
    Gear can give your team important stat boosts. You should prioritize shopping for new gear as you progress into the middle of the game, ensuring you have pieces that provide meaningful bonuses based on your current level. For convenience, you can automatically equip gear to all players using the “Equip All” option.

    Keep in mind that players on the bench don’t impact your team’s AT and DF ratings. To keep improving, focus on completing side quests and finding phantom soccer balls, which provide tokens needed for gear upgrades. You won’t have to overhaul your entire squad to meet the story’s thresholds — just keep upgrading strategically.

  • Top Strategies for Completing and Solving Goals in Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road

    Top Strategies for Completing and Solving Goals in Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road

    If you’ve ever played a regular football game or just know about soccer firsthand, you’ll need to change how you think about scoring in Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road. While teamwork is still key to beating your opponents and winning, scoring goals can be tricky if you’re new to this game.

    The game doesn’t give many hints about how to score until you get past Chapter Four, which can make the early matches feel really tough. Don’t worry—it’s not about your skill level; it’s about understanding how the mechanics work. Here’s a simple breakdown.

    How to Deplete a Goalkeeper’s KP

    Scoring goals easily in this game is less about aiming perfectly or taking open shots—though those help. The main point is that you need to drain the goalkeeper’s KP (Keeper Points) so your shot can go in.

    Every time you shoot at the goal and make the goalkeeper save, you lower their KP. To do this effectively, you should:

    • Shoot from tight angles
    • Aim for the corners of the goal
    • Use special abilities to boost your attack power, which will reduce the goalkeeper’s KP faster

    When the goalkeeper’s KP hits zero, your shot scores no matter what. Some shots drain KP quicker and help you score more goals in less time.

    Tip: Focus on players with high Kick stats because their shots cause more damage to the goalkeeper’s KP.

    How to Score Using Shot Chains

    Once you select your starting team, the game introduces a mechanic called Shot Chains. Unfortunately, the game doesn’t explain this well initially, but it’s a crucial tool for scoring.

    Tutorial for Shot Chains

    To perform a Shot Chain:

    1. Use the Zone mechanic to slow down time.
    2. Choose a special shot based on your character or pass to a teammate.

    Passing doesn’t increase your attack power much, but targeting teammates and using a Special Move to pass the ball will build up your Attack rating. This helps drain the goalkeeper’s KP faster.

    To actually trigger a Shot Chain:

    • Target a teammate first.
    • Select a Special Move to pass the ball to them.
    • React within about five seconds by aiming for the goal and chaining another Special Move from the receiver’s side.
    • This sends a powerful shot towards the net.

    Failing to react in time will cause the ball to miss, wasting your chance.

    As you advance past Chapter Five, you’ll unlock the ability to perform pre-made Shot Chains called Special Moves. The first one available is Spring Thunderclap.

    Extra Tip: Using certain offensive tactics during gameplay can also increase the damage dealt to the goalkeeper’s KP.
