Can you elaborate? Since the new year, the last 6 games Logzilla has given up 30 points per game and has scored 5ppg on offense.

I don't really run a pro offense so I'd appreciate an explanation of how that all was beneficial.

To be clear, not trying to antagonize I guess I just don't know the tier.

My extremely low Balance FB Offense is a large part of that.

Changes have been really good, IMO. It's really just the "slowdown to a crawl" issue that's still off. The sim has always flowed smoothly and been pretty consistent, but watching a HB just go from 60mph to 5 mph is a bit wonky.

He does pick up speed again now though if he breaks clear, and to be fair not many HB's can move at high speed through traffic, plus higher balance with the quick/footwork is likely to maintain the speed a lot better. It simply means that 100/100/100 HB's are not going to be anywhere near as effective

In many ways, the Balance Change is the nerf to Outside Rushing that’s been needed.

It’s going to be hard to build 100 Power/ 100 Conditioning / 90+ Sprinting HBs when they are going to need high Balance. That’s a good thing. CBs won’t be getting blown up as much and OLBs can now chase down and actually tackle a Power Back.

I’m actually very interested in rebuilding LogZilla for next season. I’d say my GT experiment went pretty well considering and I doubt his records will be broken anytime soon. 😆

Is it just me that enjoys the changes? Wet weather creates slips, it makes sense. I like the idea that there's some uncontrollables to this game, in fact it makes it more fun. And once there's more balance on players that may negate it to some extent as well, but for now Im finding it fun to watch, and have to deal with varying conditions. Spices things up and evens the playing field some too

I am still assessing things. Passing seems harder to stop than ever. But it could be largely low balance across the board.

It looks to me as though Pure Pass, with extreme speed is the new META.

well one change could completely nerf pure pass overnight but yes for this moment in time, pure pass can have lights out pass OL and skip all the run blocking in lieu of balance, pass block power, heart, toughness, etc and then just tweak WR builds for more balance and they are set. CBs cannot be built well enough anymore to cover the run at a high level and pass at a high level so IMO until CB builds are able to adjust there is no stopping pure pass teams in this meta. going to be seeing lots of 4wr all go's and other deep pass plays for the next while lol

Every time I see 5WR Streaks, someone is blowing by. And that's not even being built for pure speed.

The OL could be killer.

this offers a relatively good glimpse of what is to come.

Yes!

Edit- that's an agreeing yes, not an excited yes.

sad part is i ran a 3 deep attack against AA in a scrim and i still got ripped for 700+ yards. They catch everything even when you have guys in place.
