Hello there,

Do age related skill drops occur more rapidly depending on the player position?

i.e. Do bigs drop their guard skills before their bigs skills? does the focus change with change of position?

I don't think I've ever read about correlation between position and skill affected by drops

Would it makes sense that there's a reverse elastic effect at play?

I think it would make sense that a 'legendary' skill would be more affected then an 'inept'!?

I'd think that maybe skill drops are a percentage of a skill and can go from 0% to a certain level, maybe 10%. The older the player gets the more it shifts away from 0% (so at 33yo you have 70% chance of 0% drop and 0.1% chance of 10% drop; at 38yo you have 10% chance of 0% drop and 10% chance of 10% drop). Probably there is a formula based on Age which returns a percentage drop based on random number.

I reason this way because I don't think I have never seen a skill below, say, Prominent double dropping. All of this is anecdotal evidence, so take it with a pinch of salt.

Yes but would you agree that when the skills are lower drops are also lower. Have you seen a drop from 3 to 1?

My scale is probably off but I think there is a relationship between how high a skill is and how big the drop can be.

Two and a half weeks ago, on the 13/10, my player Dwight Catic (22819242) double dropped in a skill from 10 to 8. This is the lowest stage of a double drop I can remember seeing in my BB career.
