Is there a List of best X-Factors & Abilities (and/or stacks) per position??
Ive been slacking with adding abilities and wanted to know the best ones per position to pick (if there happens to be a list).
Thank you!

What about QB abilities like SFL, Protect, Fearless etc?

Most of those are mixed with Xfactor abilites now.
IE protect is in MT. Fearless I believe in Dots.

protected is not in master tac

SFL/PLE is in gambit, protected doesn't work and fearless isnt needed

Oh youre right, I was thinking playmaker
Hot Route Master/Conductor/QB Playmaker are three great abilities for your QB.
Member when you HAD to have fearless two years ago? Then this year you had to have GW for while.

You can click on any card in the game and and under the "Abilities" section, you can view the most popular Stacks from that same tab -- be careful, there's a TON of bad info out there and it's not always in your best interests to simply copy the most popular ones, however typically something in the top 2-3 (or 4) options would be appropriate. There are some essential, end-game abilities for most position groups.
Don't walk, RUN to your console and get those abilities dialed in. They are beyond impactful and are truly the only thing that matters in late-stage MUT. If you happen to have a lineup built on this site, please share it and feel free to ask further questions, i adore team building and bullshitting. Happy to share what i've learned from this great community.
Here's my squad if you want to take some inspiration for how i've approached the game.

Don't forget Gift-Wrapped, it is one of the most impactful 1AP abilities you can possibly spend, it basically grants ALL of your receivers and skill position players the "Acrobat" ability and will ensure the game doesn't rob you with all the various diving pass catch animations, where the ball bounces off our hands and falls immediately to the ground. No matter if it's September, May or June... you want to be running Gift-Wrapped.
Yes Set Feet Lead or Pass Lead Elite are nice to have, but not essential. Fearless doesn't seem to make much of a difference, definitely don't spend AP on it... we're still going to experience random overthrows (typically NOT from pass rush, appears to be more a result of Gunslinger ability causing these, although i have been running Under Pressure on my D-line since we've run out of other useful abilities to apply this late in the cycle).
O-line is another one i forgot to add to my prior list, end-game blocking ability stack is;

O-line is another one i forgot to add to my prior list, end-game blocking ability stack is;
- Secure Protector - this will prevent the initial block shed attempts. You can also build this through the combination of Pass Protector + Run Protector
- All Day - this prevents repeated / frequent shed attempts, enabling your blockers to hold longer
- Post Up - this is the only thing in the game that gives us a chance to win against Colossus, ideally on Center and both Tackles, or both Guards (or everyone)
- Vanguard (or Nasty Streak)... this is optional/bonus
- Natural Talent - only if/when you run out of other useful or relevant O-line abilities
If you have secure protector do you not need pass protector?

That is correct, Secure Protector is the combination of Pass Protector + Run Protector, for most basic purposes. Although for end-game MUT i have seen some players (Comp caliber players, mind you, not just some random person) who have stacked Secure Protector along with Pass Protector... however, my own understanding is that they are essentially redundant and not necessary to run both. I haven't been, although i briefly considered trying to stack Pass Protector on top, to see if there was any benefit, but my line is holding up fairly well. It's usually some type of loop blitz that gets me, or my line will simply dumb out and stand in one place and slowly spin and turn to watch as the edge rusher blows past them, to get to the QB, untouched. Grr.

- Colossus (or Unstoppable Force) for pass rush
- QB god/quad stack; Gunslinger, Gift-Wrapped, Master Tactician, velocity (PLE/SFL) and then Dots/Truzz (or Gambit) for X-factors
- Universal Coverage for DBs, along with Avalanche + Enforcer Supreme combo (whenever feasible) and TRY to add Out My Way to help defend the run (otherwise Vanguard will absolutely demolish our defenders)
- Reinforcement for most LBs (and some DBs), which can be paired with Mid Zone KO to somewhat build your own "Universal"

Happy to pay it forward, so many people in this great community helped teach me this game after an extremely long break from Madden (and console gaming).
EA's in-game info is woefully inadequate, so we're left to figure this out ourselves. Lemme know if I can help with anything else.
