I just found this in the Store:
Superior Black Shirt
+3 strength
+1 Big Boot SA
$96,000
I currently have:
Yellow Shirt
Basic yellow undershirt.
+7 kicking, +1 strength
$1,032,750.00
And this which needs an upgrade:
Yellow Gloves
Basic yellow gloves.
+6 kicking, +1 strength
$800,000 to upgrade +1 Kicking
So, I can sell the yellow shirt, buy the black shirt and still have cash left over to upgrade the Yellow Gloves
The net gain/loss is:
+1 Big Boot
+2 STR
-6 Kicking
However, by the end of the season I should be able to upgrade it twice, maybe three times with tokens giving a net gain/loss of:
+2/+3 Big Boot
+2 STR
-4/-3 Kicking
The question I need answered is, this will put my Big Boot at 18 (!) and STR at 81+. My Kicking is already over 122 now - Would the advantage on Kickoff Touchbacks and 59+ yard FGs make up for the loss of Kicking ability considering I have a huge inventment in Clutch, Laces Out, Swagger and Calm Nerves for those pure high pressure kicking situations? I think Agility and Confidence is almost more important than pure Kicking. Strength is really only important on Kickoffs - slightly on long distance kicks.
I am thinking any increase in Touchbacks might be worth it at this level of competition. I only had a TB % of around 44% last season - I would like to ge that to the point where I don't have to rely on Booming Kick to activate to get a Touchback... (Consider that the average kickoff at this level is 30-35 yards - a touchback makes the offense get 10-15 more yards per drive and one more first down for 40% of their drives. The long term effects over the long haul are huge considering there is nothing the opponent can effectively do to stop this.)
