Fairly certain this is NGTH, for reason explained above. It's a sometime issue in lower leagues, due to how most build dots for the benefit of Pro/WL and not throughout. There are other plays offensively and defensively that face the same challenge. Unreasonable to change all plays, due to how dots having a lack of "this" or "that" at the lower levels.

Though will check with higher ups to be sure, before locking.

The sim is balanced for WL/National Pro. I suspect if you started a Rookie team and kept the builds balanced to proportions similar to end-build then plays that work in the WL will work at lower levels. Of course the defenses you're facing would be unbalanced making this an apples to oranges comparison.

Well I don't care about sim balance issue, I just want to say that Catch once said you can post sim improving issue at Suggestion Forum... At least he used tell me to do that.

Counters aren't counters to begin with.

No one pulls the front side when you run counter, you pull the backside and block down on the front side.
Counters aren't intended as sweeps unless the contain defender plays flat down the line of scrimmage.

This is what happens when you have not one person with a working knowledge of football on staff. Same applies to all the pass routes where players are running into the same space when the ball should be coming out.

Diamonds is the definition of stupid 2 pairs criss cross and when they both cut they run right back into each other.

I see him say it whenever someone submits a bug report that is actually a sim suggestion. Of course, those aren't public anymore.

I honestly think that these plays might work better later in a dot's career, because early on, the speed and agility of dots isn't as great. so, maybe give them a certain league these can start to be used.

Sure, you can post them. Though if they are unlikely to happen or NGTH, you want us just to pretend differently?

By the way, nothing has been confirmed on way or the other, so I'll assume this has a chance so we can all sleep better tonight.
