Putting rookie McDavid on ALL 32 NHL teams in Franchise Mode
Переглядів 6914 днів тому
Connor McDavid completely changed the NHL when he entered as an 18 year old rookie back in 2016. 10 years later, he has established himself as one of the most dominant players in the history of the sport. But what would happen if every team had 18 year old McDavid in their starting lineup. How would the next 10 years of the league look? Can any of the clones break McDavid's dominance in the rea...

The game that LISTENED to fans
Переглядів 1 тис.3 місяці тому
XDefiant's path to now has been filled with ups and downs, but after almost 2 months since it's release it seems to of hit the mark for fans. But the question is what made players gravitate to the new game from Ubisoft? Was it the gameplay? Or maybe the free to play offering?

    • @XxNoMErcY99xX
      @XxNoMErcY99xX 21 годину тому

      Definitely gold big tipper. Then I'd probably go no contest as it's really good all around, especially on forecheck and in front of the net if you want to pick up loose pucks. Then close quarters is always good, or stick em up / yoink or truculence could be great if you want better defense / hitting.

  • @Nichaelas
    @Nichaelas День тому

    There are some abilities that are just good in general, but I think playstyle effects most peoples lists. Quick Pick and In-Reverse have always been go-to abilities for me because I make a lot of interceptions and always want to be facing up ice when I make those so I can immediately skate it up or make the quick pass to someone further up. In-Reverse is underrated for that because it makes you faster and if you have good agility (and an ability like Elite Edges) you're very agile. Plus the safest poke checks (both from a defensive positioning standpoint and a tripping penalty standpoint) to make are skating backwards in front of someone using vision control. So those two and elite edges feel like S tier when I use them. The way abilities can work together really effects their rating for me.

      Not for custom loadouts, they’re only available on the specialty loadouts created by EA. I’ve been using the Agent Blueline one and it’s been better than any other loadout I’ve created before

    This raises 2 questions for me 1. How does player growth differ in NHL 25 compared to 24? Does this mean that the player grow in attributes weighted towards their current playstyle? So if you're a sniper with 81 defensive awareness like Cole Caulfield, will that value increase much compared to in NHL 24? 2. How much does OVR rating compared to individual attributes matter when it comes to simming in Franchise mode? Does the fact that your sniper has 81 defensive awareness matter that much? A separate observation is for someone like Michkov, he's a 79 sniper vs an 82 playmaker, so that makes the new feature of changing a player's playstyle intriguing. At 79 he's probably not worth rostering on your 4th line, but at 82 he could be a 3rd line forward, but that depends whether you want to build your team with him as a goal scorer or a playmaker and also on what his shoot/pass bias is (which can also be changed using season goals)

      Attributes are the exact same, only the overall rating changes. Would need to test if the player type would affect player growth in say franchise mode

    I think a good way of thinking about this is in nhl 24 they phrase it like this : “this player is an 85 overall and happens to be a power forward” Where as in nhl 25 its : “This player is an 85 overall power forward” Now this creates a weird situation where certain player types might be more valuable then others
