Not only a great tweaker and coach, but a great guy as well !!! One of the guys that enjoys helping others. He has helped me an awful lot with tweaking and strategy as well.
My tweaking techniques have sorta become my own style, however, it's a combination of Geno, Joel with a bit of RPD "curl" technique all rolled into one.
It's great to talk with these guys and use what they give to get your own style. I also have found the fig/base match makes a big difference in strength and speed as efgamer mentions. On one base a blocker figure may be really strong and another a buzzball lineman may bring the base to life or a wide arm dude. Same for speed.
With all the different figs, including customizing, I have not actually figured this out yet to a "science"...this will take time and experimentation.
Playing in leagues with Joel himself and teams tweaked by Joel keeps me at it working harder on tweaking or I'm in big trouble.
Just as a side note, has the MFCA ever considered recognizing the "mentors" that are so kind and helpful? Maybe a Mentor of the year by region?? Just a thought...
BTW, he can COOK too !!!!
