Which one would be better to put custom equipment in for a Guard? On a balanced team so no focus offensively.

I would say pass blocking.
If a inside rush fails, you might only gain 0.5 yards.

If a QB is sacked, then you lose 5 yards or so.

The first in each tree are the most useful, imo.

The run block tree also has get low, which I like.

As long as your strength is high, you will pancake guys. BUT, you need to get about 40 speed as a guard so you can pull for running plays.

O line attributes in order of importance:

Strength
Agility
Vision/Blocking/Speed

Blocking is so overrated. Like tackling for defense.

That illusion will last until your 100 strength lineman gets constantly beaten.

(beaten = defender makes tackle on runs and gets around you / to another lineman on pass plays).

But maybe it get's better if you get 120 strength?

Run blocking. With adequate strength/blocking/agility you should be able to hold off any DTs as a guard. Especially since DTs haven't widely gone in favor of speed yet, meaning you still have time to be ahead of the curve and stock up on agility/speed before they do. Shock Block is the only attribute I'm super fond of for a Guard in the Pass blocking SAs. Meanwhile Get Low and Pancake are both very good abilities to have on the offensive side. Pancakes aren't everything, to be sure, but they're still nice to have.

So right now it's pretty even in my mind... I'm leaning a little towards pass blocking right now, any other opinions?

It's only even if you listen to everybody else's wrong opinions.

LOL

Well I got a piece of Get Low equipment so I'm going to go Run Block tree so Get Low is going to get maxed out fairly soon. Not bad ehh?
