ESPN Playbook: How do players earn the clutch trait in “Madden 13”?
Donny Moore: A player must have demonstrated the ability to produce big plays in the biggest moments. For Adam Vinatieri, that was in Super Bowls XXXVI and XXXVIII. For Marshawn Lynch, that was in the 2010-11 playoffs versus the Saints. Mario Manningham proved his “clutchness” this past Super Bowl with the huge catch against the Patriots. Tim Tebow became clutch during the 2011 regular season after leading the Broncos to multiple wins in come-from-behind situations. Bottom line -- there is no set way to become clutch; you just know it when you see it on the field.
How does the clutch trait actually work in the game?
The assist on this one goes to our Madden Gameplay team.
• Quarterbacks who are clutch affect themselves and the entire offensive line. (Must be losing by 8 or fewer points or tied within last 2 minutes or OT)
• RB, WR, and TE affect only themselves. (Must be losing by 8 or fewer points or tied within last 2 minutes or OT)
• Kickers have boosted accuracy and power. (Must be losing by 3 or fewer points or tied within last 2 minutes or OT. Also, must be fourth down unless there are under 10 seconds left in the game)
• For defense, this trait only matters for DBs and LBs. The clutch trait will only affect the given player (not teammates). (Must be within a possession [winning or losing] in last 2 minutes or OT)
