Warrior General Games

Just looking to see what people think of this build and where they think I should put my future SP's. Note: my 15 in the Quick VA brings my actual agility total up to ~73.

No takers, huh?

I'm no expert, but I would put points in agility.

+ since you have 15 in quicks VA you get 115% of the benefit

Spin or other SAs

So, another question for my fellow HB's. If you had my build, where would you put your slider bar at? I've tried everything from super elusive to combo to 50% power this season, and haven't been effective yet. Right now I'm set at 25% elusive.

Any feedback would be appreciated.

I really think you need some agility

Yeah, that's what I'm devoting my future SP's to. Any thoughts on the slider bar?

I would start balancing him out with strength and bring him to more of a combo back. Maybe even rearrange some equip. Then add to the power back SA's You have to be able to break tackles. When I did this with my guy, he got soooo much better.

Okay, so I made some dramatic changes with my HB since my initial post. I took all my VA out of Quick Feet and put them into track star instead, and moved most of my equipment out of speed and into agility, since I was outrunning my FB most of the time anyway. With my VA boosts, my actual speed is 85.59 and my actual agility is 101. I'm going to try running at +99, and my OC is going to put in more off-tackle runs and pitches for me. What do you guys think?

I'll let you know how it works out.

Crap, that didn't work at all. Like I said in the previous post, I put the slider bar at +99 for this game. Does anyone think that moving it down to ~+50 might help. There were a bunch of plays where my HB never made the cutback that he needed to, instead he just kept running out of bounce (as the replays below show). Is it possible that his vision is too low? To be honest, I'm just completely lost as to how I can make my guy perform this year. I'd love to hear any advice you guys have.

You just played a superior team..

That 85 yd performance there was my guys best game... I had switched his custom equip from speed to agility so he's running at 98spd/74agi.. (109/85 with VA's)... 20% elusive..

I'll run it for a few games and see how it goes.

Let me know when you figure this out.
I am strugging with similar challenges.

Yeah, you guys did dominate today. Your FB's must have some decent speed, huh? When I had my speed that high, I just ran past them every time, so I scaled back the speed and pumped up agility, thinking that I'd be able to follow his blocks better.

I think I'm going to take my elusive bar down to +25 for this next game and see what happens. It's tough having an elusive back now days.

Yeah its quite ridiculous... agility does nothing to break tackles while it should... its either wait til the pendulum swings back to elusive backs or just retire your player.

We shouldn't have to work this hard on our tactics to try and figure out what will make our backs at least competent.
