I am thinking of reworking some of the equipment I have on my LB. He is a back up MLB, but I want to maximize his effectiveness in a league where he is out leveled by most of the opposing teams.

edit: DOH! Forgot the link to his page. http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=779767

His Custom Equipment is +6 Strength/+1 Hard Hitter Tree. He does have one of the new endorsements. +1 tackling

My Question is, which of these 3 Advanced should I get rid of?

Superior Orange Shirt
+1 speed, Make tackle chance +4% (Currently boosted 1 time with 8 Bonus Tokens)

Superior Purple Visor
+1 speed, +1 Diving Tackle SA (Currently boosted 1 time with 8 Bonus Tokens)

Superior Purple Gloves
, Break block chance +3%, Make tackle chance +2% (Currently no token boosts)

I was thinking it would be better to redo my CE and put the points into speed. Dump the Superior Purple Gloves for regular equipment and pump the agility on it. This would drop my tackling to it's natural level and give me +6 on speed and +5 on agility over their current levels. My concern is the loss in strength. Would that cause even more missed tackles in a league in which he is out leveled?

Is this a wise course of action or am I completely off my rocker and need to leave him alone?

Thanks in advance.

more speed and agility is typically better, but opening your build or posting your ratings is needed to answer your question specifically for your guy

yes, i'd concentrate your equipment on speed and agility. the STR without the equipment should be sufficient for awhile. your missed tackles may be due to not getting in good position due to speed / agility more than being out STR'd...... play wrap-up if you are concerned.

i would also push your agility to the next cap with all future SP's

Thanks. I did what I was thinking about. Scout bar still shows 45/48/48, but hopefully he will be just a touch faster.
