If you're into the tactical side of soccer, then you'll want to find out if you can set formations in Mario Strikers: Battle League.

Although the question at hand is a yes or no question, the answer is not a simple yes or no. It’s more like you can set it but you can’t adjust it.

Whoever is a striker, forward, or defender at the start will be there when the final whistle blows.

Having good players is one thing, but having the right tactics will give you a big advantage in a soccer match. But can you even set a proper formation in Mario Strikers: Battle League?

  1. Striker/Captain
  2. Right Forward
  3. Left Forward
  4. Defender/Sweeper

It’s important to keep this order in mind while picking teams. Forgetting about this and picking Toad for the fourth position would make defending against heavy characters a pain all match.

That’s all there is to know about the question can you set your formation in Mario Strikers: Battle League?
