We have created a tool to transfer old part of the old attributes into the two new ones--namely Passing and Self-Control. This tool is located on the player's page under the link 'New attributes'. In this first release of the tool you will be able to make two changes.
One is to transfer up to 20% of the old attributes to Passing and the other is to transfer up to 20% of the old attributes to Self-Control, this will be allowed just one time and can be done in any order.
After some time the tool will be available again for further transfering of attributes. Be aware, however, that once you transferred attributes that change cannot be undone!
There are three steps in each transfer of attributes: view, confirm, and cancel the possible change in the second step.
As of now the new attributes are not usable by goalies in the new match engine, when goalies will start using the new attributes, another use of the tool will be made possible.
New attributes in the new match engine:
Self-control:
For forwards and defensemen, self-control will measure their discipline, and the ability to avoid taking dumb penalties, depending on the aggression level set for the player's line.
Penalties will be calculated from line agression and self-control of the players on that line. The self-control is not currently used for goalies and so it's value will be automatically added to a goalie's 'Goalie' skill in the match (although future specific use is planned).
Passing:
For forwards and defensemen, it will determine how well they can pass the puck to teammates. The passing is not currently used for goalies and so it's value will be automatically added to goalie's 'Goalie' skill in the match (although future specific use is planned).
