So you mean like lets give all the boosts to forwards and defenders and goalies get nothing? Personally i dont get your point with that when you are saying "everyone can get something" with that kind of solution. Lets just make scoring boosted and lets make it fun for forwards. Maybe we should ban all offensive abilities and use only silver defensive abilities? Then we all can get much more realistic game results and games would be tights. I really hope like lets play ecl spring like we played ecl winter so lets ban only tipper which is totally "broken"

This game version has been built around those x-factors/traits and thats why playing without those is so silly and boring to play and as a viewer even more boring to watch and it makes like shots, hits etc so useless. Lets imagine like people are playing Counter Strike but then you should just use weapons without any scopes, magazines etc. Its just not working that way. Those weapon attachments belongs to that game like x-factors/traits belongs to this NHL version. Hopefully someones got my point.

This new gameplay without abilities is so boring and it makes game so slow atm. Now nearly everyone is just shooting puck from blueline and make force passes like in older versions. Now when there is no fear about onetimers without traits, defending is mainly looking like this...

Totally agree, lets keep big tipper banned and others like allowed. Tipper is only factor what is really breaking gameplay. Last ECL was good and fun so there shouldn't be any need for changes

To me that would be fine to allow all x-factors, lets play the game just how its published and trucu is not leading unrealistic goals like golden CQ, golden 1T, big tipper etc. There wasnt any public problems about this season bans during the season so its kinda funny like now there is people crying about same things than earlier. Lets just keep the same rules like ongoing ECL

There doesnt need to be any recovery time to get up when you are able to counter that hit with well timed counter hit. If someone is not using it then its their own fault, not trucus or games fault

Maybe everyone just dont dare to say their opinions in public because this scene is kinda toxic nowadays. And if you are not having some kind of status in this scene and you say something different like this scenes cream there is big risk to get kinda offensive behaviour back from this scene

So you mean like lets make a poll and let people to vote x-factors/traits what they mainly just hate personally, like for a not real reason/issue. It makes no sense to me. And these are just my own opinions and feelings. I would like to hear from these guys who are against example truculence, what is the real issue with that? I dont wanna hear like it makes me lose lot of stamina and my guy is taking so long to get up after hit because with that counter hit you are able to avoid those both if you really want. And ongoing ECL season i didnt noticed any kind of game breaking things with trucu example. Goons used that like a lot but still they are not playing in finals atm. These guys who are speaking here against trucu are mainly playing in these top teams and if we are looking standings, it seems to me like trucu didnt affected their success this season at all, example parasite is once again in the finals even trucu was allowed

It doesnt make any sense to build up any kind of vote pools atm when votes are mostly based for everyones own opinions, not facts. When im reading people answers here it makes me feel that way. I could say as a Dman like lets ban golden 1T because its giving like too many free goals to opponents because its just so broken but imo its my or my teammates own fault if we are letting those guys make those shots/goals. If opponent is able to score those goals, its like bad defence. Same with truculence. Yeah personally i love to be able to make big hits in this game, even when im forced to use speedster build because of meta. And like i wrote earlier, there is a way to counter that silver trucu hit with counter hit so imo its not like broken thing, its much more like maybe skill issue thing if you are not using that counter option which everyone can learn and use

Like i wrote earlier in this topic, imo truculence is not that op in this version. You are able to counter that with counter hit (at least silver trucu) and i have seen many people doing that lately so imo its not games fault if you are not using that to avoid those hits. And game meta has been for a long time like fast skaters so i dont know any high level player who is using golden trucu/big build (counter hit isnt working against golden trucu). Big tipper was too broken to be used and that was good like Sportsgamer banned that. If we are looking/hunting like really broken x-factors/traits then we should speak like stick em up (you can just spam pokecheck without that much penalties), golden 1T, golden CQ (goalies are not awarded that much about good positioning, shots are just going in). So many of these are much broken than truculence imo so those should be banned first. But there is always different views between dmans, forwards and goalies and thats why i hope like lets keep big tipper banned and others are allowed like last ECL

+1

There is no need to ban more traits/x-factors than ongoing ecl25 winter season

Penalties in overall in this game are pretty messed up. There is really much situations where players are able to hook opponent and there is not coming penalty or then you are getting penalty about thing you didnt even do. And yeah i know this is games (EA's) fault, not any trait or x-factor but that was just example. Like i earlier wrote when we were talking about tipper etc there is always things which can be compared to each other and people can argue with those about goalie, defender and forward point of view. Best option imo is that like ban everything or ban nothing because everything has some kind of broken mechanics. But now when sportsgamer decided to ban tipper, i am really fine with that, because it caused to break gameplay
