Open Field Fake
The Open Field Fake ability gives this player a bonus to performing head fakes and jukes when there is only one defender within 5 yards.


So, the real question is... do Head Fakes and Jukes only work when you have the ball?

Let's find out...

Head Fake
The player will look one way and then move the other when carrying the ball. This fake can be effective against defenders with low agility and vision, causing them to go the wrong way or freeze.


Juke
The player will make a quick move one direction, and then go the other way when carrying the ball. This fake can badly throw off defenders, especially those who have low agility and vision. This is more effective than a head fake, but takes more agility to pull off successfully.


So, there's your answer.

But Juke does fire during Pass Routes. I think HF does too but can't remember.

So, the SA descriptions on Head Fake and Juke are both incorrect?

You mean the description of something in this game isn't completely accurate

Those SA's advanced through seasonal changes to become route fakes and yes, their descriptions have become inaccurate in that they do fire on routes and when carrying the ball.

I stand corrected then.

Sounds like a pretty quick fix. If only Bort had hired someone to handle quick, miscellaneous non-sim changes.

lolbhall said it does in this thread. You sure?

Forget it.
