I can throw out some excuses for those games... Against Hali one we didn't game plan and had our CBs playing 1v1 coverage on aggressive with no safeties, and the hounds game I had a nice offense ready but hit update too late on the AI and we used a bad game plan. But really, I've been pretty surprised at how much we've improved myself.

There are a lot of causes...
-longish focus cap builds rounding out with SAs etc.
-me figuring out and switching up a number of builds
-switch to mostly zone
-a lot of AEQ switches (we are over 100 mil from affording all level 64 upgrades)
-the sim changes were good to us

Mostly though, people don't realize how big a difference one season of growth makes. Season 1 players retiring and season 2 players getting old while we round out builds and VAs and get lvl 64 EQ... I don't think it's tough to imagine that being worth 60 points of improvement against certain teams.


SA"S IMO that is one thing that the MoD dots have added as well and have noticed a similar jump.

I think the biggest difference is that the older power houses full of season 1 dots had to reload.

Shit Edit for SA's not VA's

no me.

they only started to dominate when i GM'd their owner.
conclusive.


I'd be willing to split the credit 50/50 with you...as long as we both agree it had nothing to do with w alloy.

Think he owns some team that had been tossed around by the top teams in the past. Not sure though..

-we took full advantage of the VA resets and totally switch up some VA builds
-Hali forum access

Edit: I'm slow and didn't see Taut's post before writing this out.

Never think he said this tbh. If I recall he said our worst O-linemen would be better than most teams best O-linemen, and with the exception of the top 10-15 teams I'd have to say I agree for the most part.

Our Secondary is amazing, to put it in perspective, one of the players that didn't make the cut for the Blaze went to another top 5 WL team and is the teams top CB, another CB that didn't make the Blaze or Cs teams went to Monmouth. We have the best FS in the game and our LB core is playing lights out. We don't have a single weak spot on the team and our backups are probably built better than any other teams starters at every single position.

Guess I was wrong then. I also think he said what I mentioned too though.

You guys have a BEAST O line no doubt...Other positions are a bit more team preference specific. What you love at CB might not be what another team does for instance. But No doubt you have an amazing O line put together.

it wasn't even accurate (overtime losses are hardly being tossed around). I should have gone with SI.

Best secondary in GLB just did. This won't fair well for you.


This was in respect to stats for the season, because statistically we had the best secondary in the league.

That passing game is something else, no doubt about it.
