Well...you also weren't playing against 1980s defense at Vet level. Vader with 92 power tackle, Gold Monster Hit and EOTP for added speed/quickness will be a different story. We will get to test it out against your offense and Assisted Living.

KLs are legit. For a team built for them, they can be nearly as effective as Pass deflections. My suggestion would be to make sure you pump up deflection too, so you can get both PD/KLs.

My defenders will have decent deflection and int (with EOTP bonus).

The one thing that beat our last run in GLB2 was Rob and his deep and out throws. Throwing over the middle was always crushed against our defense. It seems high pass tech/high pass con, with low power and accuracy leads to over the middle throws. Can't wait

Low accuracy works early on if most of your passes are med routes to a TE. But starts to become a factor by Journeyman

The last thing YOU need. I can’t pass to save my life

Just pump pass tech and consistency and you can pass against any defense....until Vet

Accuracy is overrated

More TTN glory porn. I don’t know, I’m starting to agree on the accuracy thing. Maybe not such minimal investment, but 60 seems more than reasonable at this point. I’m assuming accuracy may be dictated by arm strength?

Pass Power helps with accuracy on long throws. Those replays are why I love accuracy, nothing better than hitting the WR in stride for a big gain, and it happens way more often the more accuracy/power you have.

His point is that high accuracy isn’t needed to make throws like that.

What is his accuracy on that throw...60?

60? Hell, Xars is putting up HOF numbers with 10 accuracy. I am probably gonna max Skeletor at 30.

It is to do it consistently, and against good defenses. A HB with low elusive running can pull off a nice Juke here and there, but it's not the same as when they have high SP in the skill. Same goes for a powerback in rook/soph who may break a nice tackle....not near as often as when you have high power running.

More than that, bad accuracy will lead to less quality passes, which means less TTN activation. But hey, to each their own.

How do you explain Xars numbers? I mean you can throw out theoreticals all day, but Xars has proof. But then again, Xars hasn't done it at Vet. We will get more clarity after Xars makes a Vet run.

I just pulled up a random game from Xars.

20 yard completed pass with a defender draped all over the WR. QB has ~10 accuracy and ~10 power.
https://glb2.warriorgeneral.com/game/replay/782859/744555

Very next pass...17 yard gain
https://glb2.warriorgeneral.com/game/replay/782859/744573

Then the accuracy shows up in the next pass...lol
https://glb2.warriorgeneral.com/game/replay/782859/744615

And I don't know who the hell he was passing to on the one....
https://glb2.warriorgeneral.com/game/replay/782859/744639

Then look at this freaking beauty
https://glb2.warriorgeneral.com/game/replay/782859/745003

I am not saying accuracy and power is "useless" but I don't think it warrants spending a ton of SPs into them when they clearly aren't needed...especially on a dual threat QB. I would rather put that towards footwork/quick/sprint or heart/leadership.

Nah that’s at a luxurious 31. The end goal is around 60ish.

So I take it accuracy is pretty much dead then above 65-70?

Well how high of passing strength are you guys actually going for, though?

I personally pump strength to around 50.
