Distance runner fo shizzle. Also might consider Showboat Blocker if you're into trying to create moral spirals on opponents... and I'm not a big fan of WW unless you're really needing the tiny boost to strength that bad. You only get a 3% bonus... I prefer those that give me 5% (like Great Blocker does)... so I would probably use WW as my final addition (the one where you get less than 15 into it).
I'd like to add this as well... maybe somebody has either tried or heard from Bort on these two VA and if they work on ST's.
Downfield Blocker and Outside Blocker. Neither VA says it's NOT for ST's... both are attached to the LOS, which would still exist even in Punts... perhaps in Kickoffs as well. Is that's true, then both of those would also be decent.

I think I heard someone say LOS does NOT exist in a return situation for the VAs.
Not sure of it.
But it makes sense since the ball by design reverses direction during the play so what is really behind the LOS or downfield makes no sense.

it's .3% , not 3%, it is POINT THREE PERCENT !!!!! (per VA point added, up to a max of 4.5% when you have 15 points spent in it)

Special Teamer, Distance Runner, Workout Warrior, Great Blocker, Clutch, OTK, Stonewall, Quick, Goal Line Blocker (if your DC has a special blocking unit for specific formations used only in the GL OR if it works on XPs for some pancake fun), and Showboat Blocker.
In that order, IMO.

And any STOP blocker worth his salt will have 100+ in strength, so that +4.5% is still going to give a nice bonus.

LOS is the point from which the play originates. I could understand this being true of kickoffs,,, but not punts... because you don't always punt on 4th down so there MUST be a LOS originally. Originally posted by Bane

Sorry. Forgot the '.' before the #%.

THIS...LOS does not apply in ANY return so watch the wording as it is burted and confusing

Thanks Ski. Appreciate you backing up Yeller on this for me. Good to know. Sucks... but good to know.
But... does bring to my mind would those SA's still fire even if there was no LOS? Has anyone ever tried it?
