Just wondering what everyone thinks.

On a kicker, does On A Roll or Clutch work better?

Booming Kick, Clutch, Laces out, On a Roll... and whatever you want/need for the last VA. I've done Workout Warrior for extra strength, HoC for playoff confidence boost, Football Genius for extra Vision, and Soccer Star for extra kicking.

I use Soccer Star, Clutch, Laces Out and OTK, all to 15 and Football Genius to 12.....I don't use Booming Kick as I have FF STOPS and don't want touchbacks

On a roll is the most useless VA that people use. I've seen so many people waste 15 in it only to miss their 3rd or 4th FG of a game. Anything under 50 is already nearly automatic at plateau, so you want VAs that will help constantly hit the longer FGs. That means increasing accuracy. Unless you are kicking 5+ FGs a game, the benefit of OAR is negligible. I do not even know why everyone thinks that confidence is so important for a normal kick. It does not say anything in the description about it helping accuracy at all.

I would flip Genius and OTK, but otherwise, this is what I tell people too.

Maybe you're right about on a roll. Let's take it out this season and see what can do without this.

In a way I agree with Monkey boy but... I'm not 100% sure whatever bonus you get from VA boosted skills is any better than the random factor On A Roll gives you... and kickers haven't got a sh*t load of high quality VA's to try and decide from.

As Monty said, some ST coaches dislike non-returnable kicks so they can take a whack at the returner and (hopefully) try to get a fumble. I guess I'm old school. Take the possibility of a TD return out of the question and give me a strong defense vs poor (20 yard line) starting position any day. But each ST coach has their own way and neither way is wrong.. or right... just different.

So you take away On A Roll AND Booming kick and you're left with Clutch and Laces out as the only non-skill enhancing VA's left (not counting ST Player to reduce stamina for those kickers/punters that never put a single point into it. ) That leaves at least 3 VA's to fill. I will say one I totally forgot about is HoaC. Another very good one for kickers, especially in the playoffs. Serious confidence boost.

We're talking about confidence right? No thanks, I'm confident enough!
