Re: EVHL - Pro Slider Set (6 Minutes)

Hi All,

Welcome to the official NHL 21 slider set of the Elite Virtual Hockey League (Follow on Instagram for jerseys + highlights - @evhl_official). Like before, this set is supposed to be a hybrid between realism and arcade as this slider set is made for a fictional esport league that I run offline. Skip to "The Set" if you don't wish to read about my approach to the game and a little about the sliders.

Goals for the Set:
-Attributes Matter more than default
-Sloppy play that discourages "money" plays.
-Have to roll four lines
-Dynamic goalie play
-Goal variety

Why Pro?
I've found Pro to be the best skill level to see some really dynamic goalie play. I've found it way too hard to beat goalies on nice first shot attempts on AS/SS which makes the ability to pull off a nice passing play less rewarding, especially with how sloppy the play can get. Goalies are making some incredible saves on this set, but not at the expense of good snipers not taking advantage of earned openings.

Second, I've found I can actually gain the zone and have some 2-3 minute possessions to really wear down the CPU which is super fun. I don't go for money plays, I don't try to exploit the CPU in cheap ways, so having those long possessions with tons of point shots and puck movement is really immersive and fun to see.

The Way I Play:
I play every game the same way. 1/2 the game for each team, 1/2 the period for each team. These sliders work well for the way I play, I'm not overly concerned about CPU goal totals, but the set can be a nice building block if you're looking to take into single-player/single-team experience modes.

Strategy Adjustments:
This set plays fine without strategy adjustments, but it is much improved when playing in a mode where you can control both teams and change the strategies of both teams (Season, Playoff, Play Now). Especially with how naturally often the CPU applies pressure in the neutral zone this year, upping their in zone pressure really takes away the time and space you're desperately looking for when controlling a good player.

Well there you have it everyone. That is it for the sliders for now! I will be generating a default lineup (4 lines, 3 pairings, 1 goalie) with global attributes to put on all these teams. I will possibly post those attributes/default roster in the roster section once everything has been tested and seems good to go. If you'd like to be on a team in the league, make sure to follow @evhl_official on instagram and post under the team you'd like to be on (I've only posted 2/24 so far!) Thanks for reading everyone, happy slideritis to you all!
welcome back! *Shakes your hand* good to see u in NHL 21 era.
