My level 39 HB is being retired. Figured I'd post his build and answer any HB related questions to his build/performance if any were posed.

His first 3 playing seasons he ran on power (~ -60 to -50 always) and had bruiser, which was later changed to slippery for his last season.
He was super slow built for competition at lower levels, and achieved that well enough, getting 3 consecutive MVPs, rushing yard, and rushing touchdown first place trophies.
If I could change anything, well, for this level of competition I wouldn't. But if he were to compete at higher levels I would raise speed higher initially. Other than that, and maybe a few inefficient trains here or there I did impatiently or in the middle of the night without thinking, I loved his build.
FWIW, combo backs in my experience make the best HB receivers as long as they have their focus in movement (speed/agi)
The carrying/strength investment helps tremendously with not only avoiding deflection but actually catching the ball. It sounds strange, but it's 100% true.
