They did the same with then pwf back in the day. Now his agility acell speed is a joke compared. Forced to use certain builds an x factors to even compete. I feel like I have to use certain x factors in order to combat the bs. So the rest of them just go untouched. The game is slated for offense, it's not balanced at all. Nerfing the hip check so your force to use a skill now sucks. But the ballerina cry baby's get what they want. Same glitch hockey as last year honestly worse.
Having a skill that negates 100 percent push check is moronic. So much for back checking as A light or med build. It's just walk ins welcome!
You have to have warrior on now to soak a hit. Even if your in high green it doesn't matter your laying down like **bleep** VS truck. Full green and knocked out of the play. There like 4 or 5 xfactors u practically have to use the rest are not even worth it. 35+ years of ea hockey and its a massive joke. They need to stop trying to appease all the jokesters and make a fair fun game! Ready for nhl 27 already....
