Thanks for your input and votes, people. Choice ended up being between KOR and Dauntless, and went with the will of the masses.
Alright. I'm stumped. I don't know what to give this guy:
http://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=player&player_id=8264369
Any good advice from you gentle folks out there? He's a stable, solid guy, and my first Thro-ra on any team not to roll a double or a stat by now, so I have no idea.
I don't like Kick on this guy, because khemri really has no efficient way of capitalizing on it. I've been horrified I took Kick-off return on another Thro-Ra once, but to be fair he's a S5 freak so same rules might not apply.
Shoot! |

kick off return for that much needed speed and a chance to catch the ball |

Leader is great, which is why he got it as his 2nd skill |

Is there a reason you don't want a 2nd Thro-Ra?
I have no good idea what to give this one anyway.
I'd be half tempted to just give him accurate so that he can pass a tad better.
But that's so situational for your team (at least I assume you don't attempt many passes). Is it less useful than KoR? Less useful than Pro?
Meh, probably you'd get the most mileage from Pro, though pass and surehands negate it's advantage for those two situations. |

Hail marry pass ? Well also rarely used. Pro seems to be fine an kik of return just helps you agains kick and fast teams. |

HMP isn't much used as it isn't implemented. Strip ball could make him useful on defence as he already has tackle, though it is more of a blitzer skill. |

Pointless TV bloat. It's + 30 TV for a +MA skeleton without Thick Skull. |

The extra skills and the possibility the first Thro-Ra might get taken out mean it is not that bad an idea. Slightly less lean but more flexible. |

+30 Tv for +MA sure hands (even if you forget pass ). and the 4th ma6 is necessary for khem imo.
normally i would say frenzy, as it combines with tackle and his ma6 to make him a backfield sweeper with a chance to pick up the ball after sacking those blodgers.
then maybe strip ball.
but you got already a frenzied blitzer - understandably cause of his St4, but usually i prefer frenzy on the throwras as blitzers have st access to get other needed skills. |

Yeah, had it not been for my Blitzer, I would strongly have considered Frenzy.
As is, I feel one of the biggest issues the team faces is setting up defensively vs bashers (well, or Clawpombers more specifically). I don't really want more to add more vulnerability to the team. 2 Sure Hands also tends to be redundant. If one Thro-Ra gets injured? Well, use something else to carry the ball The S4 blitzer is good for this in a pinch.
Av 7 is vulnerable. Even with fend, all it takes is a MB to make AV7 feel meek, especially with no Thick Skull. |
