More kicking will def help make longer KOs.

Honestly - and no offense here - seeing a kicker like yours be so successful on FGs annoys the hell out of me. Not your fault obviously, but there's something seriously wrong with this game.

What exactly makes that build so bad? He has good amount of kicking and a good even spread of other attributes.

Perhaps there is an argument that making your player excel in one attribute, then moving onto another is actually an ineffective way of building in relation to on field play. Yeah sure, you get more SPs out of it, but perhaps being a balanced player overall makes a better statistical player?

For the most part not much in the way of stats separates bad builds from good ones. However, the 8/8 from 50+ last season in the middle of his decline will give tons of ammo to people who think there's an X-factor.

Ironically my kicker has him beat in every attribute with the exception of stamina, is not declining, and he went 7/10 from 50+

As an aside, his KO average is terrible.


Puma, your guy also has nothing close to the SAs the "bad" K has. Maybe those SAs are worth it.

Seriously? Did you look at the Decline penalties? 85 natural kicking (82 with decline penalties) is in no way a "good amount" of kicking. What makes it a bad build is that compared to hundreds of other builds it is much worse.

Until last season, Grundle had 12 CN and 12 BB. Last season I switched the CN AE to BB. And if you want to argue about Automatic, I'm fairly certain i could find kicker builds WAY better than that one with a dozen in Automatic that have never been as consistent as that kicker.

Tbh, when I got to 120 on my K, I went to confidence to 100 and he went perfect the next season on Kicks. That is the path I would choose, K to 120, Conf to 100, then all in Kicking again. Now I am mentored and with soccer star I have 150+ and 100+

None taken. haha I stater this Kicker as a filler on a team, then just kind of kept him around. Hopefully if I actually tried building one, his effective level wouldn't be 61/53 also haha
