It's not? I usually train mine up to around 30 when nothing else is left to train. To be fair, I find it a bit more important on K than P because a P will never play 2 plays back to back like a K doing a kickoff will.

Most people put hardly anything into it. Training a bit only. On the other hand I've seen at least one very successful kicker who had it capped.

Punters I don't think it's worth bothering with. train to mid 20s end game. My punter Xyzzy has it trained into the 20s and finished well above 90 in his last game on 6 punts.

Abraham capped it recently. I've had it in the 40s for a while and was using the my excess BTs to bring it up to the softcap. I wouldn't say it is unimportant, especially with how much offenses are scoring, even in close games.

What Puma said. Although if you end up on a team where you punt excessively having it up a bit might pay off. I am currently in a situation like that and notice a drop off in punt quality once I get into the teens. Of course, the idea is not to be on a team where you punt more than a 3 or 4 times a game.

pestface clearly likes stamina. He's even got 2nd wind. And he's got the highest KO average I've ever seen.

I'm not a big believer in stamina at all. Punting and kicking distance on my guys does not diminish as their energy bar goes down. I'd train it up to about 20 as you're finishing off your build. That's about it.

Is Ensign Poops's KO average higher than my guy's? I'm at work and don't have FF on this computer.

Yes, however, I only looked at regular season games the two kickers won by less than 100 points (or lost). When I further eliminated games where your teams scored less than 50 (including scrims), you both tied at 76.1.

If you do all regular season games, he tops Stinky 74.2 to 72.
