I'm gonna boost my HB at the end of this season and the beginning of next season, so he'll be level 25 with 35 SP to use and I'm wondering what to use them on. He'll be in a level 20 cap league.

I've been thinking of 2 options:

Getting speed to the 60.51 soft cap so it'll be 82 with equipment, then getting quick cut up to 9 (10 with equipment), finally putting the left over points in stamina and strength.

Or becoming more balanced, getting strength to 40, putting points in stamina and some points in the lower shoulder SA.

Which route do you think I should go, or do you have a totally different idea for my HB?

Here he is:

Or you could get speed and agility both to the 2nd soft cap

I don't understand boosting him over the cap of the league. His performance will suffer because of the level nerf that applies towards levels higher then the cap. If anything I'd wait until the cap is lifted before you boost, then definitely agility, vision, and second soft cap speed.

I didn't know that there is a penalty for players being over the cap. Well I'm still gonna boost this off season, but I won't boost at the start next season.

theres no performance nerf to your player for outlevelling your competition, is there?

there was talk about implementing an experience nerf if you were "X" levels higher than the median level of the league, but that doesnt affect your play on the field at all

You will need vision. My back has 50+ vision and look at his stats this season. I also have his speed to 67 and his agility 55. Vision is very important for a Elusive back! Once I bumped is vision up I saw a dramatic difference in my RB. http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=93653

Do you run on elusive or combo?

Hmm, that may be it then. I might be wrong with the performance nerf. I'll have to look around and see if I can find anything.

I would like to know this as well. I've been switching around and I can't really figure out what is best. On combo it looks like he doesn't use his elusive skills as often as he should, but on elusive he stutter steps around constantly.

Dude, if he's got McGuffie in his name he needs to soft-cap jumping!

Seriously though, I would go with second-soft-capping speed and agility, giving you 82 speed and 60 agility. That will kill on combo. If you have any left-over points, save them up until you can add more levels to Quick Cut until you get it to where you want it. Train strength to 30, then stamina and you might want to consider some training/SPs in vision soon as well.
