Note: Saving the 15 SPs for the 68 cap on strength since training will benefit in the long run. Also, intense training strength/blocking. Good startout build, or should I retire and reroll? as for the 10 in kicking, it was the only build with 8s in all the useless stuff (besides kicking) and low confidence like the sticky guide here suggests.

Also, should I focus my eq on strength (looking for mucho pancakes here!), or spread it out between that AND blocking? Thanks!

I would not be happy with that roll. If you have to settle for a 10 in a minor attribute, only take it in speed.

How's this for a new roll? Same game plan as before, btw.

At some point, you have to take a little good with the bad and in the end it is not going to make or break your build. As for your plan, Octowned has the best. Here is my attempt to distill it into 6 lines or so:

Train:
Str&Block until you can cap str
Train Block&Agi until you are happy w/ str (at some number you wont touch again) and can cap block.
Train Agi&Vis until you are happy w/ Blk and can cap Agi
Train Vis&Con until you are happy with Agi and can cap Vis
Train Con&Sta until you are happy with Vis and can cap Con
Train Sta&Spd until you are happy with Sta and can cap Spd.

Train whatever you want at sad values, SA time. The only thing that differs by position are the values you will take each attribute.
For a Guard, I'd go str/blk to 77.3, Agi to 73.25, Vis & Con to 61, Sta to 48 and Speed to 61.

The problem is this guy isn't going to be decent until you start on agility and isn't going to be good until you pump speed. So, it's always a trade off for better results now or later.
ETA: I'd like the new roll better if it was opened.
