Why does the Run Stopper Archtype favor Strong Base? I can understand wall, but correct me if I'm wrong didn't Bort say Strong Base is only active on passing plays?

When they were thinking up archetypes, there was no "run stuffer" and "pass rusher". It was strength DL and agility DL. And with those names, it made sense.

I'm pretty sure it just stayed around after they changed the names cause the balancing was already done.

Well it doesnt favor Strong Base seeing how its in the Pass Rusher tree. It also isnt penalized so its probably the best choice in the tree.

pretty sure youre wrong. run stuffer DEs to get strong base as their bonus SA, and it is for some reason in the containment tree.

but what hagalaz said, that right.

Blah run stoppers should get wall and shed blocks or wall and diving tackle.
