Which K/P Archetype should I pick? - Swanty - 09-29-2021

So you’ve decided to create a Kicker/Punter! But which archetype to choose?

You have two options: Accurate or Power. Let’s take a look at those in more detail.

Unsurprisingly, where the two archetypes differ is in their Kick Power and Kick Accuracy.

The Power archetype starts out at 70 Power and can reach up to 100, while the Accurate kicker only has a range of 60 to 90.

The ranges are reversed for Kick Accuracy. It's the Accurate kickers who have the range of 70 to 100 for Kick Accuracy, while Power kickers start at 60 and can reach just 90 without traits.



Traits

Kickers are a unique position in the ISFL in that their traits do not have in game effects. Instead, they modify the upgrade scale.

Accurate kickers have access to two traits: SteelToeBoots and BionicLeg. These both have the same effect: they raise the Kick Power cap by 5 points. So while Accurate kickers are initially limited to a maximum of 90 Kick Power, they can raise this to 95 with one trait, or to 100 if they have both traits.

Likewise, there are equivalent traits for the Power kicker. Their traits, StraightShooter and LaserSights, raise the Kick Accuracy cap by 5 points each.



So what’ll it be? Accurate or Power? Once you’ve made your pick, head over to the CREATE A PLAYER TOOL and start building your Kicker/Punter!
