Well i reset my vet abilities...before i reset i had +5 points into slippery...but in my 2 preseason games...i had 0 broken tackles



im not going to reveal my stats...but i have over 95 speed and over 70 agility (thats not including the +15% i get from track star)

anyways...does slippery add to the broken tackles total? or when you "slip" off of someone, does it not count...im just curious if its worth putting points into it...or just loading up on quick feet and quick (i have 5 head fake and 8 juke) i wish it worked with quick cut...cuz ihave a ton in that...


but ya...anybody know? is it more for a balanced hb? i mean i have 50 str...but i still dont break many tackles...


im confused on whether to put points into it or not

Slippery helps you break tackles which is kind of useless for Elusive HBs because the point of an Elusive HB is to fake people out and not give them a chance to tackle you at all. If you run Elusively (i.e. Running slider at 75 or higher), then Slippery probably won't help you much.

It would probably be better to put the points into Quick and Quick Feet.

I know this isn't a HB, but my KR had 10 points in slippery for 1 game and produced his most broken tackles ever.

Even with 50 STR (like my HB), I feel that the Slippery VA is close to useless for elusive HBs and I don't see a lot of Power HBs going for that ability. Slippery is technically a talent to reveal bad player owners if they take the points off their player before the deadline ends.

As long as STR is the main variable that allows this ability to "proc" or not, it'll be absolutely crap compared to say, Bruiser for Power HBs. If they needed to make something out of this talent they need to change it to agility.
