There were a couple of VA updates we'd been working on this past season that didn't quite make in time for the preseason starting, but I want to get them going before the regular season. So, I've uploaded them, and I'm resetting everyone's reset points again, so you can change around again if you like.

Updates are:
New VA: "Nerves of Steel" - gives a second chance to reroll "knocked loose" passes
Updated VA's: Possession Receiver (gives boost to knocked loose pct), Overtime Killer (extends into last 2 minutes of close games), Tenacious (better bonus vs wrap up, smaller bonus vs balanced).

There were a couple other random updates I just uploaded as well; you can check the changelog for more info.




Jed edit: Bort replies a bunch in this thread, he stops replying on about page 8 from what I can tell.

If by nerf you mean giving whiners a potential solution but still allowing a way to increase percentage of it happening for defenders?

I guess if you take the new VA, or have possession receiver.

Or you could just up carrying.

It isn't nerfed. If people want to spend their VA points there, no problem.

Good to have new VAs after people spent their old VAs.

Funny thing is people refuse to accept option #2 you have listed. The New VA probably won't be very effective w/o #2. So I guess my title should be changed.

Sure but it is still going to be a factor of carrying. Receivers with good carrying will see a benefit. Receivers, who ignored carrying, will just complain that the VA is crap.

It will at least help you beat bad luck, like sure hands or sure tackler does. That's the point, tho.
