Hi, I know the change had just been made and some people already asked for this, but nobody made a thread about it and I believe it would be an efficient change.
Also expecting the devs to already be thinking about doing it but hey, expressing my thought is the best way to be heard.

The idea is simply to make the break-even point of the Power and Technique Blocking skills to be at 35 or 40 and let the total cost to go to 100 the same.

I think the blocking change was one of the best way to balance offense, but I also believe that the break even point is simply too low to really help balanced offense which is a problem to me considering how many of the top tier team have a balanced offense.

PS: english isn't my mother tongue so I probably made a lot of mistakes, be nice and tell me what went wrong

I've been hearing this a lot but I fundamentally disagree. Defense has a chance to actually play now.

My issue is that balanced team are even less efficient against good defenses.
This change wouldn't affect the pure offense as much as you think it would, it would buff balanced team more than anything else.

People aren't asking this so defense become rubbish again there is a good reason behind this, and a 35 break even point would probably mean 1 or 2 points in tech and power skills for most pure run or pure pass blockers which wouldn't be a big deal really.

Unless you are running/coaching a pure offense team I'm not sure to understand how this change could be a problem? I'm not asking to take the cost back to what they were before, changing the break even point from 25 to 35 doesn't do much for a dot that has 80 in power and tech.
