has scat back as his bonus SA, may add sticky hands - what about Catch Fake?

i dont know if its just the routes or what but it doesnt seem to fire nearly as much on a RB/FB.. i definitely wouldnt do it on a scat FB because you other SAs you have to purchase since the tree sucks (Juke mainly)

My projected sFB build looks like this. It's currently 213 days old, so can't / wouldn't do much about the major skills.
Stamina and vision are the only skills that I'm still putting SP in. Both are currenty 48-capped and will get 61-capped on day 281.

strength : 24.13
speed : 103.97 (+58)
agility : 92.1
jumping : 24.26
stamina : 61.87
vision : 62.1
confidence : 22.26
catching : 89.1
carrying : 72.26

Bottom SA Tree: | 5 | 9 | 1 | 1 | 1 |
Additional SA Tree: 10 FS, 10 Juke

+21.5% catch, +15% fake


I have 34 more skill points that are not in this build yet, that I intended to use in Catch Fake. And I have the BT to buy a "3rd" (actually 2nd) extra SA. What should I do with them instead ?

Some options:
- Quick cut to 9 and +21% fake
- Some other extra SA, like Scat Back or Head Fake
- More strength and / or confidence (yeah, probably not)

Catch fake is bad for backs, because you need the defender to be on you for fakes to fire. Roughly half (or more) of HB/FB routes happen beofre the defender is close by. For juke this is a non-issue since it's insanely powerful (thanks in part to the quick feet VA) and also by the time you are making your "cut" the defender will finally be on you.

It's debateable whether catch fake is worth it on WRs as well imo.

That'd be pretty awesome if it's not taking away from the 21% catch chance?

Thanks. I like this option too. And no, it's not taking away anything from the build I posted earlier, it's all on top of it.
