Balanced skills pop faster, it is a sure thing.

When skills get lopsided, the training of said skills begins to slow significantly. You are doing fine but may be missing out on some pops.

My bigger question is what is the advantage of the way you are doing it? To me it seems like there are far more disadvantages. For example, your players salary will rise higher than he is worth, just based on his mono skill. He also is not performing as well as he could be. Instead of those 8 or so pops all in OD imagine you took 5 of them and spread them between passing, JS, driving or whatever. The player with balanced skills is far more efficient than a OD monster.

BTW thanks for the one ball. Especially on a post that is very accurate and only trying to help.

Can you prove to me that this is true. I don't think it is the case...

The only things that speed up training as far as I understand are trainer level, and height. Other than that everything only slows training down.

I saw it here on the forums. If training skills that are much higher than the other is slow.. why shouldn't training lower skills be faster?

I see what you mean now..
For the record OD barely raises his salary by current stats he would have like 5k salary only..
Being is such uncompetitive league right now i dont need much offence and high OD will sure help in future..
Of course given a diffirent situation i would have trained him in diffirent way..
P.S. If that was directed to me,i did not 1 ball your post ;)

I think if you are training to sell then your man is more valuable than someone balanced right now... i believe a manager would pay more for Wondrous OD as he may not have any short or medium term plans to train it.

I dont think there is really any right or wrong - as you say he is a 5-7k player now and you are winning games. For the record, I wouldnt train JR! Just Passing.... :D

I agree with you, the best way to train rookies its to train them in combos trainings or so like JS-JR-1vs-passing etc switching week after week. Only i would waste 4-6 weeks to train OD in a row, but not all the season.

@Skullator

Someone here also said you this before, if your league is not really competitive(i dont know exactly the level of your league) its not really necessary to train a player to 12 in OD, when he have other skills to train like JS,JR and a bit of passing too. At this moment you are losing more than winning with this trainining. If you wanna my advice, leave the OD training and start with JR 1 position, trainings on JS and(i would advice to do it in SF-PF so you increase his IS) also 1vs1.

@Superfly Guy

I dont really think this rookie is the best to make what you pointed. Triying to make a defensive beast so early when his ID=2(i suppose he poped in ID from the OD training) its not the best idea, everytime he face a PG with a nice IS and driving he will be in troubles. As i said, this rookie with his inside skills would not make a high value on the TL even if he is young.
