Curious to see what others are rockin and what throwing abilities you like on RG3. After multiple dropped passes from my RBs yesterday (that’s on them, not RG3) I threw Safety Valve on for my own sanity and haven’t had a dropped pass yet while they’re open. Aside from the Tier 1s I haven’t tried any of the Tier 2 passing abilities. Any Tier 2 abilities you guys are using on RG3 that you like a lot?
Gift wrapped and protected. No clue if Protected even works

I wish it would show the boosts on the lineman for that visual gratification. I have it on and I am not sure if it's working lol.

Should I be using gift wrapped instead of Safety Valve? Is there much of a difference except that it works for anyone receiving the ball?
It seems like tight out and safety valve are essentially irrelevant, but the wording is slightly different which is confusing.
For tight out and safety valve it says better catching when they “beat their coverage” and for gift wrapped it says better catching for “uncovered targets”. I don’t know why they word it differently like that, but it’s confusing.
When I think of uncovered I think of someone that’s wide open because a zone doesn’t cover them or a man blitz that rushes a lot of guys and literally no one is covering the RB for example.
When I think of “beat their coverage” it’s someone that was covered but they got a lot of separation. It’s two different definitions and I’m curious if that’s how the abilities actually work or if they really just work the same (ie if your guy is just open it will trigger no matter what)

Same- usually mut.gg has each ability tested, ranked in different tiers and often includes feedback on whether it works or not. I’d imagine it takes a lot of time but I can’t wait for their ability tiers to come out so I know what actually works and what doesn’t lol

Doing some research online, it says safety valve is mostly for RBs? I'm at work now so i don't have the exact wording in front of me but if so, i would make the switch to gift wrapped. Honestly, i have no idea if any of them work but hey, it looks cool to have on the card lmao

Thanks for the share. Some very useful information on protected. Looks like it might give the OL better target blocks or something. I bookmarked this joint.

I didn’t even know this existed before thanks a ton.
Also to answer OP’s question it looks like gift wrapped does the same thing safety valve does but applies to everyone so no point in using safety valve.
