Salary Cap Mode update on December 5th
Some people use silver, some use golds, some use elite elite level. The rationale behind elite-level o-line is that the cap for O-line increases at a slower rate from one tier to the next when compared to non-linemen cards. But I think most people feel that o-line does not matter in this game, so they use the lowest cap possible for o-line. I would say to use linemen that at least allow you to put chems on them (so gold).
I personally do not believe that weaker teams get boosted in games against stronger teams in WL and H2H though.
What’s your normal approach to building o line? I’ve seen a lot of different opinions on it

It's the best mode. Competition is fierce though. Of the pool of players that play SC, there is a lower percentage of scrubs compared to WL. SC will make you a better player because schemes play a much bigger role. People build their teams in one of two ways:

Build a team that fits the scheme they want to run Build a Theme team and implement a scheme that accommodates the roster Believe it or not, method 2 actually works, and the ratings boosts from the team, uniform, and stadium chems can make this a viable option. I am using a giants theme team right now with Kurt Warner, Saquon, and a 91 Evan Engram which is very lethal in cap. Just make sure to hit 25 players.
So per Kraelo/RG on the Madden Forums:
Salary Cap mode's next update will be Dec 5th
Cap will increase to a range of 925-975
EA will consider tuning the following for this update:
Player Caps
Ability Caps
Lineup Criteria Thoughts: So, a 150 cap-jump from 825 would drastically change the way the mode feels and plays. But I believe this would be the last update, which matters. Furthermore, they will look at player caps (likely reducing them), giving us more cap in a sense. Ability caps will likely get reduced and increased. And for abilities that are "expensive" and still considered "overpowered", they may get more expensive. So I would not worry yet about people feeling like they have the cap to use all the overpowered abilities now.
Lineup Criteria is an interesting one. I feel Three things could happen here:
Require a third flex. Instead of forcing you to have two Strong Safeties and one Free Safety, they give you the option to have two Free Safeties and one Strong Safety instead.
