Both Protect the Puck and Pinning the Puck to the Boards Both Need a nerf especially for those using low Strength and Balance. Pinning the puck to the Boards should not give the person immunity from being hit. So Many players see a hit coming along the boards ane Pin themselves to the Boards to avoid contact. Ive Had times where a player will do this and the game doesn't allow me to hit them it almost creates a bubble for them it doesnt happen all the time but it does happen. If A players balance and Strength is low this should not be the case.
As For Puck protect A player using his free hand to Drive the net shouldnt skate through hits. Ive seen to many times where a player is using Moonlight Powerforward he goes into puck protect and just sheds hits like its nothing. Even though my hitting is As High if not higher than his balance and strength. Another reason Prebuilds shouldnt exist. A moonlight Power forward has not only Good Balance Strength and Agility it also has Elite Edges. Giving the player a clear advantage on Puck protect skills as if you go to hit him he is able to turn faster and even if you do hit him hes got incredible balance and strength to keep the puck.
Again If I can't Make A Custom Player To the same specs as a Prebuild the Prebuild shouldnt be in the game. Multiple Prebuilds are OP not all but most.
I think we Can All agree The Most Important Stats for NHL have been. Speed Acceleration Agility Endurance Balance and Strength Hitting Maybe Dekeing.
Moon Light Power forward has. 92 speed 90 Balance 96 Agility plus elite edges cant be used by a custom build. 95 acceleration 90 puck control 88 endurance. 90 hitting and 99 strength 92 slap shot power and 88 wrist shot power
The best I can do.. Same Height and Weight is
89 speed 87 Balance 89 agility 89 acceleration 90 acceleration 89 hitting 89 strength
And then i could get strength and hitting up to 93 with plus 4 or 89 balance with+2
With a weaker shot a little more accuracy and can get a couple other categories like dekeing and passing Higher. The Prebuild is the better choice IMO over the Custom build. Just because the Custom Build is slower less balance strength agility and acceleration with good endurance. And a hard shot.
This is just an example. Prebuilds have no place in this game. Or at the very least keep it to arcade modes get them out of Ranked matches thanks.

Why not just pin them instead of hitting on the boards? That just stands a good chance of being a penalty.

Can you get a video of this? Protecting the puck is supposed to do just that so they're going to be harder to knock off it.

EA_Aljo Any Prebuild Can Be beat sure. The Problem I have are the attributes. I posted about this in another Forums.
Moon Light PF Height 6'6 210 Speed 92 Balance 90 Agility 96 Acceleration 95 Shot Power 88 and 92 Puck control 90 Endurance 88 Body Check 90 Strength 99 Plus the Build has elite Edges can cut better or just as good as Small Dangler Builds.
Custom Build 6'6 210 Speed 89 Agility 89 Balance 87 Shot power 80-83 Acceleration 90 Endurance 90 Hitting 89 Strength 89
You can get hitting To 93 Strength to 93 and Balance 89 if you use Boost on those.
The Stats you win On With Custom without Boost are. Handeye Passing Endurance Dekeing Offensive Awareness Shotblock And Shot Accuracy. but this is only between Attribute points on the less effective Attributes.
Moonlight has all the most important Attributes Loaded up while it sacrifice the not so important Attributes especially when the Ai goalies are as bad as they are in this game. Moonlight is definitely OP if you Break it down like i just did.

So, what is making them OP then since they can be beat and it's more about skill than attributes? What is unfair about them when other builds, with lower attributes, can compete just fine. You're saying it's not fair, but I'm really not seeing that. If you want to put together a video showing where these builds are unfair, I'll pass it on to the team. There have been very few complaints about these builds other than the skins. Normally, when there's a widespread issue, we get bombarded with comments about it. That hasn't been the case with these builds though.

EA_Aljo My problem with them is why do you have the right to make a prebuild with more freedom than I do with a custom build lol. Im not understanding why Prebuilds need to be in the game? We were fine without them before we dont need them now. Keep custom modes Custom if you want the prebuild garbage in Arcade great have a blast.
