I have my first kicker, I hadn't added any attributes yet since he was on a cpu team and I wanted to train him quicker. I know kicking is obviously the most important, but then I usually see strength/vision/confidence relatively close with other kickers. I have about 60SPs to spend after I boost him, what would be the best way to spend them?

Also, when should I worry about SA's?

Oh, and is agility of any importance?

Okay, what you want to do is get your kicking to around at least 60-70, and you should intense train kicking+strength. After that, you should softcap strength and vision. Don't worry to much about SAs until your a good level 20 at least.

If you don't get confidence up you will suck.

Kicking, then confidence are most inportant.

After that strength and vision are close to each other.

I actually argue vision > strength depending on your focus. To me, a kicker should be hitting it from 40 and in every single time except in blowout games where stamina is an issue. To do that,vision > strength. If you're willing to trade a few kicks tehre for some longer bombs, that changes teh desired times to 1/2/3cap vision and strength.

LostPeon's guide http://www.glbwiki.com/index.php?title=The_Attribute_Leg_K is pretty good for this.

My confidence on my punter is only is only at 51, and my punter doesn't suck, and my vision is only at 48...

And he almost averaged 43 yards per punt..

Every punter at lvl 36 should have a 40 yard average. I had a 40 yard average at lvl 24 with my punter. If you had built up confidence you would be better. and it's not just avg. punt I like to look at the return yards given up rather than the average punt.

Intense training is the name for the training that gets Bonus Tokens.

Also, I asked for more stats to be included; basically I want a histogram or a graph of the distances on punts. Punt average is the 2nd stupidest stat in the game (behind OL pancakes) because of how biased it is towards bad teams, non-coffin-corner punts, etc. I know my suggestion won't get implemented because most of my posts in Suggestions and Goal Line Blitz get ignored, but it would be nice to take the length of every punt, plot it as a dot on a line, and see how the dots cluster.

My guess is that I have a higher average than you, phil, and all of my dots are really clustered into two groups (coffin corner and regular) much more tightly than your punts. My reasoning is that confidence determines the variance of punts; my high confidence means less variance and more punts of longer and more consistent distance.
