My team Brynäs has played alot with no perks and you can still score alot against turtledefence. As a defender myself we cant have "Stick em up". It does the work for you. I play with no stick em up and I have to be good at it now. I thought that was what we wanted in esport?. When i play with "stick em up" it does everything for me. Without the abilities you have to choose if you want to shoot good or skate good as defender. Choose your points after your playstyle and I like that alot. For med abilities like "beauty backhand". "Stick em up". "Sponge". "Rocket" its like the ability does it for you.
