A blend of SA's, effective AE along with the atty numbers all factor in. You can have high PV yet be lacking in the other areas and guess what...your build won't be as effective. A balance of the three is what separates at the highest levels from an average, to good, to elite build.
In the end, do what brings you the most enjoyment, as having fun is the most important aspect of the game.
you can build a good EL dot that performs bad
you can build a bad EL that performs well for you, but the bad EL indicates you could have built that dot even better
elite dots have a high EL - SA's, which typically get added to after you are done with ALG attributes, don't really change this picture
elite dots have high EL, the correct AE and VA's and the build aligns to the dots role

All I know for sure is this. Centers.
If you build for EL you'll have a decent dot... but if you build it to do it's job right then the EL will suck. I suspect the Major/minor attys are not quite right on it. Could be same thing for STOP builds and LB's? I suspect.

Completely agree. Have fun within the game anyway you want.

Nope. Haven't you heard? If you're not carbon-copying the person everyone considers to be the best, you're doing it wrong, and being wrong can never be fun.
And definitely don't pay attention when the person everyone considers to be the best tells you other ways to play will work too. He's clearly just trying to trick you.

Yes that's truth here. TBH, we had no idea what he or anyone else said about build plans. Ours simply came from playing with the new builder and seeing very similar builds at the end. It's a good time to be different than the masses anyways as it won't take as long to come to fruition and see the results.
Of course he is only WL and doesn't give a shit about anything else whereas we enjoy the battle up the ladder as well so we don't care if missing 1% on the builds like he would.
Time will tell but these will be our best builds yet as fully building for PRO level dots even if boosted early.

I used to care about going up the ladder but not now - the disparity in levels makes the climb just player building now

GG Athens, pretty stout run D despite the box score. Take the two 'cheap' long plays out, and it's < 2 yards per.

Too kind.... This time around Ive stopped fiddling with stuff that tbh doesnt matter much in the overall scheme.....As a d/c I always feel tempted to try and do too much... sometimes you just gotta "limit" what you try to "limit" if that makes sense
Once dots get up to full speed I expect the temptation to grow !!!
My final word on Kangas and others parrots Smithys view....Good for the game and keeping users playing is why we still here I guess... Its also a good test to bang helmets with a "superior" team in lower levels seeing what might or might not work

3rd and short, 3rd quarter, 2-4 yards to go, blocking TE, power HB, rush QB, up by 3 or more….only need about 6 plays for this scenario XD

Is this where I point out that RyanCane has a handful of dots that are currently Level 11 or Level 12, indicating he's used at least 5 boosts already on those dots?
