there's no point capping strength for a speedster, its not a major or minor attribute and it wont go up at all when you level up.
You can just train it to like 40 and leave it there.
I'll probably take carrying to 60, but after 2nd capping jumping

No need to pour SP's into strength. But training it to 30 wouldn't hurt.

Why are you listening to people that have never had a dot over lvl 33?

Better yet, why are they answering these questions?

Strength is very important for WRs, for a number of reasons. But believe them if you wish.

Okay, I have a WL speedster WR with only 20 strength. And only 36 carry. He isn't the best WR in the WL or anything, but he's holding his own.

Really, for supporting stats like this, it all boils down to how you are building the dot and what you are building him to do.

With the low strength does he get revcaked by CBs often, if so does it have a major effect on morale/energy

He played in the WL last year as well, and his strength was 8 at the start of the season. He was getting rev-caked too much, and his morale was indeed suffering. Since training it up to 20 though, he's been mostly fine. I'm still training it for now, mostly because I get the most bang for my 2 TPs there, but I don't think having only 20 strength is really hurting him.

Well that was pretty much my point.

Your morale was getting hurt by the rev-cakes, which is where strength/blocking comes into play.

Not to mention all of the rolls that Strength becomes a part of when making a catch.

That would be you're.



And yes, your highest dot you've ever built was level 23. So no, you're not an authority on anything, much less WRs.

You can be successful without it but it does help. I'd recommend at least 30 if for no other reason than blocking better on running plays. A little in blocking helps there too. I've done that on all of my WRs, all but the newest one have played in the pros and I'm trying to find a way to get it done on the new one, but his build's extreme speed/agility/vision/carrying so he'll hopefully have overpowered jukes and there's not much room for other things.

And what makes you any different. You have had , what 3 WR to hit level 68+ and only have a total of 20,400 yards...

Looks like you know what you're doing..

I am not claiming I am any better but dont throw stones when you live in a glass house
