You're only looking at Oline...

HB/FB +2 agi +1 spd +1 acc +1 car +1 pbk +1 rbi +1 amp +1 try (my bo already gets majority of those boost, currently has +2 spd +2 acc +2 agi)

WR/TE +2 agi +1 spd +1 acc +1 car (my HCM already has +2 speed, +2 acc, +2 agi)

Secondary +3 str +2 agi +1 spd +1 acc +4 tak +1 pur +1 prc +1 mcv (my deion has +2 spd +1 acc +2 agi)

the boost we all could have now are pretty similar. i rather use my free slots on motivator cards and cards with great discounts like that lamb

this was my exact thought about it i think people  need a bit more of multiple UL's  before commiting to  UL's  chem red tornado is too valuable for too many teams and it's wayyy tooo much of a sacrifice to get rid of legends chem for that.  unless they dropping another full  ultimate legend left tackle,guard,right tackle or center (jensen get's secondary chems for left guard)  then go right ahead and have fun! but it's just a hassle cause you want the best boost for  your ENTIRE team oppose to a SECTION of your team.

I just don't see UL chem being useful...

Sure some stats that normally don't get boosted get boosted, but the time every cards that you'll need drops the cards being released are already end game and won't need the boost.

Sure, the FA strat card helps.. but I would rather have +2 speed (Legends & FA Strat) since they're dropping legend chem cards at a slower pace to help make them stay on top longer.

We're also getting the ring of honor program, that's probably a legend drop where maybe the cards they release are equal to ULs

With the FA strat card you technically wouldn’t lose you L Chem speed boost

You can’t run legends chem on your other guys except these 5? You only need Zimmerman, Grimm, Pouncey, Decastro and Anderson right?

It’s called corporate greed and you NERDS keep buying these packs EA puts out there so it will never stop. Next year you’ll have to pay a fee to kick off the ball. STOP BUYING YOUR TEAM AND PLAY THE GAME

Totally forgot about Maxx, that’s a good call. 
I’m using Reggie at DT and too and he’s been solid. I like to rotate my rushers and swap sides throughout the game as that also resets resistance when theres a different edge rusher on the linemen.

I think zone is, in ways, better in madden than real football.

for example, if you are in a  cover 3 in real football, vs a smash concept, something will ACTUALLY get open. You are reading the outside corner and high/lowing them with the hitch corner combo. In madden, things like that never work.. The flat just guards the hitch, and the third will always guard the corner. The X factors for zone don’t really matter- if ur running a flood concept, as long as you clickon and free form down, u can always avoid the KO. 
 

There is just a big difference in beating zone in madden vs real life. In madden you basically just make a combo where 2 things will basically *always* get open, (think bunch verticals, bunch flood, mesh post, crosser slant combos, etc.) and make a read of where their user goes. In real life it’s about stressing one defender, or a whole side of the field.

Didn't realize you actually played football.

I too wish there was more football strategy around the game. Instead of a "meta" formation I would prefer to learn how real NFL offenses and defenses work, what adjustments to make, etc. Right now I have a basic understanding and that's enough strategy to win me most games: recognizing a Cover 2 or Cover 1 look, 1 on 1 matchups, motioning blockers on read options. But I wished the game emphasized these areas and actually taught players how to play the game properly rather than Youtubers exposing massive glitches which create an unguardable blitz or offensive formation

TheChamp22 said:

No problem!

what I’d do is run milkman at DT and then when Maniac and Tank turn off you can manually in game swap tank and milkman that way you keep your X factor on the edge where it seems to work better.

PaCounterGo said:

Everyone has secures, though. That makes it balanced. Abilities create variance in the game. You have to know how to beat man, and zone. its miserable to play without SFL/PLE+fearless. Without zone KOs, zone just sucks. there isn’t a reason to take out abilities. I understand why people don’t want the AKA X factor, and I agree with that. It just is not a big deal to me.

Yes, and no.. It did at first when nobody expected it. But now you can stop it, learn the way to stop it. The thing that really ruined it. Was EVERY SINGLE DISCOUNTED ABILTY. dude come on now, I don’t think having every single op ability for only 0-2 ap is annoying. The stacks we can get on qbs now doesn’t help anything else.
