No other position in GLB has quite as worthless of a SA lineup.

Maybe putting First Step and Superior Vision in and removing the two dud morale based SAs? Something like First Step | Swat Ball | Shed Block | Superior Vision | Big Sack?

Might at least tempt a few more people to bother buying the skill tree upgrade on their CEQ and bring in more flexies?

Maybe change the name of the tree to acknowledge the existence of cover LBs too. "Nickel backer" tree instead of "Pass Rusher".

unfortunately the higher ups in GLB have said that the trees are set in stone... but that was part of the reason why they added bonus SAs

Fair enough, I wasn't sure if the NGTH mention of changes to archetypes was more about majors/minors.

It's a shame though as it seems to be almost universally agreed in the build forums that the LB PR tree is a total waste ... guess lock it up.

Pretty much.

But when happens when people who have points in the shitty SAs and they get changed?

Bort could probably just reset those SP's. LB SA's are terrible. I dont even buy the CEQ tree upgrade on them.

And then what about the SAs after them?

Resets of SAs should be similar to resets of VAs

I would support the change, but the loss of revenue on CEQ upgrade fairly negligible to GLB, maybe 100 FP per season

roughly 10,000 active LBs, maybe 1/3 are coverage LBs, and maybe half of those or more don't upgrade the their CEQ bacause its not worth it. so maybe 1500 X 300 = 4500 FPs not being spent. 30% not recycled. loss of 450 FP consumption per lifecycle (average 5 seasons)= about 100 FP per season
