Warrior General Games

So at this point in season 1 for me I have some thoughts/questions. For the most part I've enjoyed the game but have some... idk reservations maybe, about it too.

Is defense at a disadvantage in this game by design? Do blockers have magnets on them or are defenders forced to cover blockers? 2-3 players with a clear shot at a ball carrier and they all choose to run the other direction to engage a trailing blocker or run into that interaction thereafter. Players spinning in circles with the play directly in front of them, what are they confused about? I'm talking plays where no awareness or pursuit should be needed it's right in your lap, just hit them!

When I have S*s is it a waste of time to make them defensive? Is the magic bullet having a S* RB or Qb and just continuing outside runs with a built almost purely for running?

Higher tiers are a lot different. S*s are needed on both sides of the ball.

Hope you stick around. You are a good new agent.

Defender pathing has always been an issue. It can be frustrating at times but it doesn't have to be gamebreaking. The game has flaws, but we all have to deal with them. The key is creating separation with superior builds and play calling.

Right now it is definitely good to have a S* HB but that doesn't mean they won't eventually nerf certain things that might make rushing less effective. I've seen the game go through phases where rushing was best, passing was best, balanced was best and now heavy run is best again. If they keep making offseason changes then it's possible the meta will shift again. I absolutely think having superstars on defense can really help too. As a single agent team that limits your possibilities but I guess that's why it helps to work with other people and thus increase your superstar total if you wanted more than 3. So yeah, S* HB right now is a magic bullet but it may not always be that way and defensive superstars are not a waste of time. If you have any other questions don't hesitate to chat or PM.

GE is a genius. He will have his day.

Grayskull! Where have you been hiding old friend? Looks like Plan P is finally coming together. It's time to topple the GLB2 Legends

My bad on not doing the top 10 this week. My time is limited these days. I'll continue doing them but will cut it down to the top 5 games.

To the Death Star and regroup!

Not only do you talk to yourself with your multis on the public forum but you give all your multis thumbs up too

I've been in my lab, working on a prototype. Using Stobie's tool, I have created the ultimate S* Zone CB. He will Stuff the Run one play and snag a pick 6 the next. It is time!

That's because Whoville laid an egg today.

And I can still make the playoffs.

I thought we played really well. We just had two terrible turn overs. A horribly timed fumbled punt and a pick 6.

21 games into the season and the team with the most offensive yards and points scored is 12-9 and ranked 29th in tier and the team that has allowed the fewest yards and points is 18-2-1 and ranked 1st. Defense winning championships...I hope.
