no offense bud cuz you seem pretty cool, but when you post stuff like this i just wanna (aka stiff arm myself in the face)

the only thing that effects stiff arm firing is positioning of the (single) tackler to the HB and carry awa (but mostly the 1st thing)

everything else you said probably just helped your HB be in more of those positions (single tackler at his side)

edit: in closing, dont read too far into the game. youd be surprised how basic most of the best builds are. oh and GE stop QQ'ing because you messed up dragos build. i did the same thing with jeter last season trying out freight train, just gotta live with the results lol

You and I are speaking the same language, I'm just bad at saying it. The things I mentioned help your back position himself especially with high awareness to pull off more stiff arms. If your back has more footwork he tries to do more side to side elusive things which make him face toward or strafe away from a defender in a diagonal which makes stiff arms hard to pull off, if your back is more quickness based he turns his side to players more which makes stiff arm fire.

Run North/South for a couple games and see is the freedom helps to make stiff arm fire more, combo would be even better since you upgraded his mobility.

Lol...actually I looked and I never moved him from combo until yesterday.

I've noticed that it fires the most from slippery, but I hate how the running style acts on a footwork heavy back :/

For high quickness it's probably the best style to run, makes juke and stiff arm fire a lot.

Slippery is better than evasive?

Dependant on build. As they are meaning Slippery gives the HB enough freedom to position to the side for stiff arm, but not too much that they are running away from defenders.

lol at GE - gets to vet - nerfs his HB - complains on the boards --- never bothered reading what the SA actually does.

not surprising at all and actually explains a great deal

The Empire will be back...better than evah!

GE the only scary thing on your offense was Drago potentially breaking 10 tackles in goallines, i don't know how u managed for him to break so many tackles as a non S*, but u just destroyed him lol.

Almost every TD i suffered from you was in GL, long runs.

This.

It is a bit hard to start adding in mobility when you are dealing with a non-s* for sure. I think 88 power is still enough to get things done though so I'm interested to see what happens. The one place this is going to hurt the most is direct up-the-gut type runs, but he should see better use of blockers on off tackle runs.

No. 88 power on a non superstar HB that relies on GL running is super dumb. Lets not beat around the bush on this.

It is actually especially bad for off tackle runs because he needed to break those tackles that he is now not breaking.

It's gonna be lol for sure.

I got some'tin up me sleeves.....booiiiiii

GE is never out of the game!

Actually stiff arm does fire when running up the middle. Our combo back for Genesis actually gets stiff arm to fire quite a bit. I believe he is set to combo


His main important stats are:

Carrying Aware - 99
PR- 59
ER- 30
Qui- 45
Foot- 40
Sprint- 85


Personally I noticed that if they are rushing up the middle and break one tackle and there is another player trying to sweep up, Stiff Arm always fires on that second tackler.

Since he's primarily a power rusher maybe more of his rolls are going towards PR skills

Hype had it fire on interior rushes as well, 95 carry awareness for him.

On combo and slippery it'll fire often, on north/south it'll fire a decent amount, on elusive it fires a decent amount, on power it fires rarely. It's the whole 'single tackler on the side' requirement and high awareness that cause it to be decent.
