Olaf the Wizard, the norse lino, has probably reached his potential.

With Guard, Tackle and Fend, I don't know what to take next.

Any ideas?

(League division)

Pro or Frenzy or Wrestle or Dirty Player

Pro - So you can reroll 2d6 blocks that don't "do" anything
Frenzy - So you can open up holes or complete chain surfs fully to free up movement for other players.
Wrestle - So you can take down low movement opponents and foul them or remove their utility from the game.
Dirty Player - So you can save him from nasty opponents when the game has gone sideways.


I'd go with Frenzy but how comfortable are you with your positioning?

You already have a Stripper and you have enough Dauntless by far, let alone Frenzy, so there are really no remotely useful skills left. Wrestle, then, maybe. Or Pro.

And that is your answer - any more skills are bloaty.

Which is why this makes sense - but rolling doubles is easier said than done.


So... you're looking at "best value" to minimize that 4th skill bloat...

o Dauntless: While you have others, it can be handy on the line. Depends who's in your League. (I would also say it saves your higher-value Runners from facing the Big Guys, but... you have none???)

o Pro: Handier than it sounds. Every Turn, any Turn, all 16 if need be, a coin toss to RR a Block (or late-turn Dodge or whatever) with no cost. That's really nice.

o Wrestle: He'll be on Defense, the Wrestle option is not a bad thing, esp if you have some DP's

(* DP: No. You already have 2, and a Guard (much less a Guard/Fend/Tackle) is too valuable to risk being sent off.)

o Kickoff Return: Okay, wait... On offense, if this Guard is not placed on the LoS, it lets him "shift" up to 3 squares, to where you need him to be - maybe up to the LoS one side or the other, maybe fall back, maybe defend against a Blitz! possibility, whatever looks best based on the kick placement. He won't be your ballcarrier, but he would let you shift your formation toward one side or the other.

shadowing could be fun in blocking wars to move his guard into awkward positions. not a great pick, but may ocassionaly be game changing.
