Before the S31 class reached regression, only 3 people had ever done it before (Anrikannen, Garbanzo, Clayton). Then 5 of us got there. 4 of us are still playing now, and between Metzler, Visser and Kurczewski, we've probably only had to let 4 or 5 stats total fall below 85. You better believe we and LKS were using the hell out of this loophole.

Im looking at his update.. he was soppose to regress at 1402 tpe...  thats after all the tpe he could claim before eggys 7/22 due date.

he adds 64 illegal tpe to his regression build.. then regresses


Strength 1(8) (87-86)
Endurance 3(24) (86-83)
Scoring 4(32) (90-86)

these are all his non strengths, with that 64 illegal tpe he saves himself from being locked in at no more then 85 and 82 for the rest of his career...then goes on and adds to those attributes in the regular season....

This is a profound advantage for a player and team... and If this ommision of circumvention is whats been going on, then we need to revisit this as more then a sweep under the rug ruling ASAP.

I think @JKortesi81 makes a valid point when he says all it will lead to is people regressing stats another way. If we look at Avakeal, since that’s the thread that’s brought us. All they need to do to circumvent. Instead of pulling it out of some of these areas Izzy pointed out, Avakael could have pulled it out of passing then bumped passing back up. They have 84 TPE in passing before it hits 90 so that could of easily made up for the TPE that drops those other stats below their threshold.
