King SA's (at this point from my experiences)

FS > DB > HoS > Blitz = HH

Sidebar question: (not worried about SA's or VA's or how CB blitzing is or anything)

Just generally speaking:

Are blitzing LB's still useless in the current SIM the way they were useless in last season's SIM? Is it worth building a specific blitzing LB for that purpose only with the way things currently are?

Definitely not useless since pressure actually means something in this sim... but it shouldn't mean as much as it does right now. I'd much rather see sacks/knockdowns etc control the passing game than OMG SOMEONE IS NEAR ME BAD THROW

Not as much for LBs, though.

I tried it. Don't bother.

That. Especially with the alternatives out there.

They should just get rid of the damn blitzing archtype for a LB then. Gets frustrating seeing a team dominate with a pure blitzing LB so you create one for yourself just so half way thru his career they are rendered useless and have to retire him.

Blitzing LB's are great


Just not for blitzing

so where would tunnel vision, relentless pursuit or big sack fit in this hierarchy?

I'd think its something like something like: FS > BS > DB = HoS > TV > Blitz =HH=RP?

Big Sack? Really?

BS is pretty far down the list at this point. I'd say DB/HoS are definitely much more important.

Disguise Blitz now has value for LBs, but I've never been impressed with Head of Steam. Big Sack is definitely nice if you can reach the quarterback since fumbles are a big benefit.

blitzing was the best thing to happen to DEs XD

arguable whether worth the investment at end of tree, but if used in EQ seems worthwhile... fumbles are so much more rare than they used to be that every one is sacred
