Warrior General Games

I know we are only two games in but I'm actually really impressed so far with my kicker!

6 for 6 on field goals, all 40 yard plus. Including a 59.5 Yarder and a 60.5 yarder!

9 for 9 on extra points.

Averaging 55-56 on kickoffs, all in all. I wouldnt say too shabby so far!

Now I say that, his performances for the rest of the season will probably be shocking!

While those FGs are impressive, it could just be on the positive side of variance so far. 6 FGs is such a small sample. Those 2 60 yarders is interesting, as Bort basically said don't do it and you hit them.

I think the biggest beef is the average kickoff length. 55-56 is pretty pathetic compared to last season's league averages, but seems to be the norm now.

good builds will do well!!!

Thats sweet dude

I knew the nerf wasn't that bad

I dont really mind touchbacks etc. Just as long as I give their offense as poor field position as I can.

I know people will be thinking im bragging etc. But I'm not, I'm actually suprised he is doing good. Yeah, 6 is a small sample but so far it's all I have. I will be checking all the time to see how it changes, and if you want I'll keep you updated

I agree - mine seem to be doing particularly well this year - though of course it is still early days yet.

The nerf wasnt for FGs i dont think. But the difference on kickoffs was clear, last year i was getting over 50% touchbacks but this season its more like 20%.

- Penalty to kicker accuracy on super long kicks (51+ yds) increased, and goes it up exponentially the farther out you are. You really shouldn't even bother trying kicks past about 62/63 yards.

My K is struggling with 50+ kicks now...and everyone i've shown the build to says it's better than average...

Could I see it pretty please?

I've noticed a difference with longer field goals. Mainly the 50+ Bort was talking about.

But kickoffs have been crippled. I mean, with kicking in the 90s, how are all your kickoffs only 50-55 yards? That's pitiful. It's ridiculous for an offense to always start at the 40 yard line after kickoffs.

I actually had a blowout win where I made all my PATs (20+), like a first ever for me LOL, anyone else have any evidence that those were semi-fixed or did I just get lucky?

Not so sure, but as someone somewhere mentioned, you can now make either a precision kicker or a touchback kicker. I dont think it is simply as black and white as that but you can edge on way for sure. I think it may be a strength and confidence issue.

Also, what is everybodies jumping attribute? I'm sure that will have a big effect on the Z axis of your kicks along with strength.

We just had one of them blowout wins today. Just for comparison:

21 kickoffs with a 55.8 yd average.
Longest kickoff: 67 yards
Shortest kickoff: 46 yards

20/20 on the extra points.

Also for comparison:
Lvl 29
Str 56
Sp 27
Agi 27
Jump 18
Vis 56
Conf 56
Kick 93
All 6's on S/As

is that including equip?

Well....

With a quarter of the season gone, here is what I'm looking at FG-wise.

11/12 with the only miss a 57.5 yarder, half the attempts are 50+. 5 are 40-49 and the other a 30-39 distance. Pretty shocking stats I must say.

I'm thinking of attempting to 2nd cap my strength to help with my kick-off distance and see if that helps. Just thinking of everybodies VA's, I have 10 into clutch and 3 into soccer star, maybe this is why I am making my long field goals?
