yeah - we missed 1 against you last game

you have stumbled onto a key metric to have a top team - don't miss tackles

Your not getting the point. We would rather play the best of the best, no easy passes like having to play a KC Stags team, etc. It has always been that way and should remain that way IMO. I learned this game with what you are doing now, however, I never asked the game to be changed just to benefit myself. You will definitely become better at this game as you learn it so keep on plugging away at it. As far as no or little missed tackles goes it's all about the Builds and VA's as everything must align to prevent missed tackles and, of course, slow building builds the best players.



And yet you guys have no problem ruining the ladder by not giving a flying fuck. Pretty funny if you ask me.

Whatever though, different strokes for different folks. At least y'all found a voice for once instead of

GG x

repeat 16 times

zzzzzzzzzzzz

Yep, I have been talking about this all season. What I don't really get is that we have 2 make tackle pieces and what I thought was high enough Tackling but obviously we missed the line here. I am really dialing into this next generation to make sure if we get to the right spot the tackle is made.

if Bort would put all the boosted teams in one conference and non-boosters in another the ladder would be better for everyone

don't blame people for optimizing the 7 seasons in plateau over the 4 ladder ones

I don't even think I bothered ever saying GG at any time and you are correct that we are/were a slow build team so there was nothing to talk about so we stayed in our lane going up the ladder, sort of speak.

Are always that way. Not just this time. When WL all that matters you help to fuck yo the rest of the levels of the game imo…. It’s all good though. I enjoyed the ladder as I always do.

also make sure you have another HHLB or 2

not sure how your DL is holding up with only 3 DT and DE

RC's roster makeup on defense is a good one to emulate

I am taking over the defense exclusively so if I can figure out this tackling / getting there to make tackle sweet spot, maybe can turn the corner.

pre downtime we were boosting early because of more Vet Points so this is new for us as no advantage to early boosting like before, but in 3 seasons I will be doing a team with early boosting to see what it turns out like

Thanks. I am gonna be honest here as doesn't matter until we get the next batch up here but unfortunately our guy who built the DEs whiffed badly on it and I am doing my best to balance it all out.

I believe it was mentioned on it here below it is about the builds as far as mistackles
I have 2 tackles with 3 aeq about the same builds the difference is one has a different extra sa than the other and I intentionally ignored a attr because I wanted to see the difference in the performance.

The one that I ignored the attr 94 tkl but also has 33 mstkls (22 from swat and frenzy}, the other only has 35 tackles but only 9 mstkls.

Two suggestions on tackling,. learn what it takes against the big boys and for god's sake don't ever ever and I mean ever ignore jumping.

I take part of the blame since I did not set anything up O and D wise in minors since I wanted to stay away fully and re-charge the battery. We could have put up better fights and probably Miami will do much better.
I must thank RyanCane and his presets that we had any schemes at all climbing up the ladder.

Did you reach out to some of the better built dots on my team as posted in PLFT? A few of the builds are quite good and you said you needed help on your team.

Also, when you get ready to construct a roster, feel free to hit me up and I can give you a good outline on structure to at least consider. There are certain constants that every team needs, then you have some variance depending on coords and methods.

Good to see someone wanting to get better for the long term as that only helps GLB overall

No thanks to 24 teams

2 things. #1 is I'm seeing plenty of people realizing that Mauler was right on how to build. Several of us didn't wanna believe and now we're all crying about it. Some of us seem to be learning though (raises hand). My lads didn't end up terrible but they didn't end up quite as good as they could've. Lesson learned. Next lads will be better.

#2, and sad to see, but I still see several managers pissing all over us at KC Stags. We're well aware of the mistakes we made. Can't fix it now. Will recycle and try again with what we've learned. We wanted to do this season to see what we suspected was messed up. To learn. Promise you we're still fighting every game. Can't learn anything if you don't even try. As for all the whining about us being in the league? Go piss on Bort for putting us there. We didn't ask for that. We surely didn't ask for all the shit you've given us. So go get screwed and cry to Bort cuz we don't care about your whinny ass crying. We'll finish the season. We'll fight until the final whistle. And we'll learn everything we can to get better next time. We screwed up and we know it. But we're not the reason for your problems.
