Does anyone have a back thats built with high agility then speed? like 70-80 agility then 50-60 speed. I was considering trying it out but i wanna make sure it works before committing.

dumb...hes talking about elusive backs

I'm working on a couple right now.

I can definitely see the potential, but they should be much better once the Elusive running style is fixed.

As it is now, its a little difficult to get maximum potential from a high agility back, as the elusive running option gives them the most benefit.

I'm building one as well. He's nearly at the 3:1 cap in agility and has 6 in quick cut.

At the end of this season, my RB will have around 75 agility and close to 70 speed...at level 21. I'll let you know how that works out.

I thought if you matched your speed/agi you were just wasting points in agility? I like the idea of 2:1 speed to agility ratio.

You got some bad information.

One of my backs was like that last season, and honestly it wasn't that good. Agility some 10 or 15 points higher than speed, and 6 in quick cut. When Bort fixes the elusive running style, it will probably be awesome though.

Yeah, I think that is a little too much of a gap.

I'm shooting for a 70/70 RB, personally.

I think the idea is to build a back that relies on the elusive SAs. The gap between the back's agility and the tackler's agility seems to be of great effect when coupled with high SA levels (ie Tea Baggins).

I personally have a back i'm pseudo-slowbuilding that's focused on agility. I like the idea. But it seems like Juke and Headfake work quite a bit less than the powerback SAs.

It's a shame, really.

I moved his equip around at the start of the season and he hasn't got a ton of carries so its not the largest sample to go by. I've found that high agility set on elusive run style he stands around and has lots of negative or 1 and 2 yard plays. When he does get going he has had some really impressive runs. I hope with a few changes in the sim he will be really good or I may just retire him in a season or two. No matter what I'm going to continue to roll the dice and boost agility
