I have seen very successful WL, Pro and other HB's with less then 80 speed. If I can get 120+ speed on my FB with no MAJOR gains then I am sure you will get all the speed you want with your Power Back.

why call it a discussion if we can't discuss what each of them is? post them in an announcement or lock the thread if you don't want feedback on it.

Discussion =/= Suggestion

I might just get rid of Combo HB, I think the other three are more than sufficient - I'll look it over and discuss with Bort.

I will. Especially if the Power Back specific VA is worth anything. It's easy to make a PB with 110 Strength/90 Speed in the current format. I'd imagine it'd be a little tougher to achieve 90 speed, but MUCH easier to get to 110+ strength. Perhaps 130 Strength, 85 speed is possible? Give me 70 Carry and 10 in Power Through, Bruiser, and SYM, and I'll plod my way through your D without needing speed as a major.

not with how defenses are built now. it you can't get going from one tackle, you can't break the next. gang tackling stopped this after season 8. that is why running backs break 6 tackles for a TD in peewee when they get hit one by one, but in the pros, you can't get by with more strength. its all about the balance

Honestly, does anyone run a ture combo halfback anymore? And before you link me your hb, does he have bruiser or slippery? Because if you arn't running with your slider on 0, you arnt combo.

yea but then he looses out of 1 season of the new ALG which is pretty much a big
deal on early levels..so it doesn't benefit him at all..*1 season is like 10-14 Levels
of ALG*

*Level 1 Players

So again i feel i would be farther ahead rebuilding from scratch because i loose out but i dont feel i should have to lose 4400 in total flex for CE i purchased to be used next season


60 days of training is a big deal too, so is a season's worth of VAs.

And for god's sake THE WORD IS "LOSE"!

Building players is the best part of GLB, these new archetypes will make too many players built the same way. So basically building players is taken out of this game ( since archetypes are some what pre-built). This will sure make it easier for OC's and DC's. You will know what your up against, a DC's dream.
It seems like everything is being dumbed down in most aspects of the game which will make it easier for everyone. Good luck with the new GLB that has been put together by 12-18 year old spamming chat room agents that became Mod's.

So, this new GLB will make building players and Tactics far more easier. Easy enough for the 10-12 year olds coming in that know nothing about football. Their is enough bad owners already.

How do you figure it'll make it easier? It'll add more diversity. Imagine how many different types of players there are now with everybody getting the same ALGs. Now, give positions 2-4 types of ALGs to choose from, and let them make variations based off of THOSE? You're looking at quite a few more types.

Meatdawg wins - FATALITY.

Good post, though.

Hmmm maybe make it if someone selects Combo they can only have 0 on the slider.

Either that or get rid of it.

Think about all the sp combination's and factor in the new major/minors and it should open the build process up a bit more.

Exactly... By the definition in this thread, Plow and Meat Dawg are combo... yet they'll break more tackles and be more successful than alot better built "strength" players

Perhaps if you just move carrying down to a minor, and replace it with something less beneficial for a combo back (stamina, for example?) you'd make the Combo back a little less appealing.
