Quick background: I am a 95% (atleast) runner. I don't have any interest in passing. I build my OLine with only running in mind. I love fast guards that will pull alot. L2R OL is Madden/KelceTOTY/CreedTOTY/Yanda/Gregg. All have Nasty Streak. Guards have Puller Elite and Post Up, C has Post Up.
Yanda has been my RG since he came out. Used my Legend Token on him. He's been great. I've tried to replace him a couple times. Ezra Cleveland (his speed wowed me), Russ Grimm (great stats) were actually tried. Corbett (abilities AP didn't work) and DeCastro (slowpoke and terrible ability stack) ignored. Even the TOTY Gs couldn't even get a courtesy buy out of me. Cleveland was awful for me. The speed was there, but nothing else. Ignored blockers, wandering around up the field. I actually tried him two different times because of the speed, and same result. Just bad. Grimm was good, but same abilities cost 1 more ap, and the the upgrade (if any) elsewhere was just not enough to take Yanda away.
On to Bitonio. Speed looked good (acc/agi a bit lower than Yanda, but still workable thanks to Tornado boost). He gets same abilities for same ap (with the upgrade token used), so I bought him and plugged him in. So far (challenges and 2 solo battles, couple House Rules) he has been great. I like to test with Bucks, Counters, Powers, then IZs and Draws. The speed improvement from Yanda is noticeable, and he hits the edge noticeably quicker. He actually looks and finds guys to block (SMH Ezra). Pushes up the field on IZ (Draws I'm not sure yet. Couple QB Draws and he got upfield a bit later than I woulda liked, but was the same with Yanda). And again: actually searches out and blocks ppl lol. Pretty important.
So yeah, so far so good with Bitonio. Yanda might finally be hitting the bench for good.
