This is the truest statement on GLB of all time:

Thanks to TJ.


Soooo... Hold on to your butts.

The VA does not kick in until the ball is in the air. If the ball is in the air, it already has a trajectory and landing spot. The ball cannot change speed mid air.

The Speed and Agility boost does nothing for the WR, because they will get to the landing spot regardless.

On offense, the only value BH has is in the Vision boost. If your pass catcher is built for anti-interception battles, the BH is the best VA available.


However, 0.001% of receivers are built like that though, and it's worthless to every other pass catcher.

If the sim doesn't change with a INT nerf of some kind, then the WR/TE meta will have to change. There's nothing more QBs can do to reduce INTs. It will have to be the pass catchers that change.

Throwing to WRs and TEs is almost detrimental across the board to the offense right now.

When I lose the Tourney game due to 6 interceptions, 2 for TD's and our overall O stats are better then something needs to change. Morale just plummets so you get double whammied.

you threw it 55 times, got sacked 3 times, hurried 7 times. Looks like your qb was under duress. Frustrating but may be worthwhile to take a look at why it happened instead of asking for a change.

Does the WR need to be running into a zone assigned to a DB for the WR/TE to benefit from Ball Hawk? Or let's say the DPC play is all Under Zones and the WR goes on a streak beyond the under zones, BH vision bonus still kicks in?

Nevermind! I just found clarity after re-reading the VA. It could be full Man up on D and the "offense" dot will benefit.

watching every int, I don't think this is a va/sim issue

I can travel faster than the ball, faster than the speed of light, with the super power of Ball Hawk VA

Empire Elflord pass to the wrong dot up the left side


Accurate at least

Same team and less passes to WR/TE and totally different result.

Very scientific conclusion, glad to see you figured out the solution to all your dotball problems.

Everyone has their own opinion about the sims and personally I know it will never be perfect.
I also have issues with how games play out sometime and I think since we all pay money to play it would be nice to get certain things a little better.

There has to be checks and balances.

Why not just build every WR with 180 total Speed if they can outrun every defender?

There is supposed to be a roshambo game at least, if not an actual chess match.

The defenses have figured out that offenses only throw rocks. They are now great at building paper DBs. Offenses have got to start throwing scissors, so the game can evolve.

The issue really is how to build good scissors instead of janky, child-safe, left-handed scissors that can't even cut a fart, let alone paper.
