Warrior General Games

Everyone who plays GLB always says to make speed and agility to the highest they can. Don't you think that it gets kind of boring? Having the same build as everyone? Is there anyone with a wide reciever w/good stats who has a different build?

Mine is sorta of the same as everyone else and im gettting bored hahaha

Physical Attributes
Strength: 10
Speed: 69.3
Agility: 49.3
Jumping: 21.3
Stamina: 21.3
Vision: 27.3
Confidence: 19.5

Football Skills
Blocking: 10
Catching: 27.3
Tackling: 8
Throwing: 8
Carrying: 19.5
Kicking: 8
Punting: 8

I wanna do something really different but i dont know what to do. AND i dont even think i would get on a team if i did do something different :S

when I decided to make my WR i wanted him to be a guy that can break tackles and get YAC
i did give him a bunch of agility (mid 70s natural) but I've also passed the cap on both strength and carrying and intend to 2nd cap his strength soon and train up his carrying a bit further

he's not a real fast WR but all of his EQ is in speed so he's not too slow
and he has good jumping, catching and vision
all of the secondary attributes are at least capped

if he breaks one CB tackle he's likely going into the endzone

someone else on my team can build the track star WR, i chose to build a different kind of receiving weapon who is IMO more difficult to game plan since he creates more mismatches in single coverage

There's plenty of different builds out there for WRs, it's just hard to find them in amongst all the crap and static.

I thought the idea was to get your WR built on the highest Speed, Agility, Carrying, Catching, Jumping, Vision, Confidence, and not forgetting strength so they won't keep knocking your ball and balls out of whack!

Boring? There are plenty of different builds out there..........How your guy functions will be the result of your team philosophy,
OC, team mates, QB quality, and Borts latest nerf.

Boring, nah......WR is one of the least boring players to build. Good luck.

The only thing I've ever wanted my WR to be was a blackhole for passes.

3capped catching first and it's worked out great. Jumping and Vis are being worked up to their 2nd cap after I brought SPD and AGI to 3 and 2 (obviously , he needs SOME of these). He's great so far, never drops even when I crank up my QBs passing slider on bullet (although this never lasts as other receivers cant catch it). Sure hands, +Catch ball% and any reroll VAs (whose name I forget) are of primary concern. Eventually I will work on having some more AGI and Jukes/Fakes for YAC, but for right now he's a great complement to a speedster WR and a good receiving TE in the 2WR + TE sets -- QB either has a man open way downfield, a possession WR slanting in or a TE wide open in the middle.

i hate WR. they do nothing. If u want to make a player for 300 flexies i would say RB. Its all about running in this game. look at the team i GM. Our first season we threw a lot i caught 85 passes. We go 6-10. This year and last year i have 47 catches and we never throw. We r 16-3 in those games. So yes they r very boring.

It's the system. I had 3 WR's on my team that consistently had 1000 yards receiving each or higher in multiple seasons with a 4000+ yard and 40+ TD seasons at QB. OC plays the biggest role in all that. Also a good defense goes a long way. The one year I had a great DC my team went to the conference finals before losing to a slow build team that came up from the ranks. My Offenses carried my team every season and we were a pass 1st team every season. We made playoffs every season since season 4 but one year finishing 8-8. WR's are a blast to watch when you find an explosive one.

the tough thing about experimenting with a build that really almost requires certain attributes, is that it takes awhile to see if it really works, and then you also need a decent team to see if it works and if your build is going to take awhile to get rolling that can be hard to do if you don't know all the right people.

I find it is more fun for me to try and think outside the box anyway, even if it doesn't pay off it's still more fun than doing everything other players do. you never know when your somewhat unique build will hit upon the right team at the right time and make some magic and that's the payoff.

now if I could just figure out the "x-factor" haha.

When that happens, I'll need that formula for my under performing WR.

You lie

Tip of the century, are you ready?

X factor = Duh factor

Building and managing your player well equates to success.
