Don't be one of those weird people and take it on a Witch


You save skill-choices, do please tell me when you get SB, Wrestle, Tackle, Leap & Dodge on the blitzer?

The W/T/sb comes a lot more natural for the WEs.

Blitzers skill up fast, plan for the future, plan on 2-3 skills.

Tackle is handy. DT is a pain for the opposition. SS will help own the sideline, and is a classic DE Blitzer skill.

No matter what you take, sounds like you'll need to take another one soon enough.

(But I'd consider planning on 4 Blitzers w/ Blodge + X.)

Yes, but frenzy into a cage and gangfoul vs AV7.

This is a tabletop league. Strip ball is huge in tabletop, you want it as soon as you can get it. If you are a ranked picker, you can just build your DE team bashy and pick on noobs.

As for Witch Elves with wrestle/strip? If they didn't have Frenzy, it would be great. Frenzy is fantastic for attrition blitzing and surfing, but when you are sacking you don't have a choice of which player to hit. This often results in a successful strip ball being followed up by a -2D block due to guard.

As for wrestle? I don't take wrestle on Wardancers either. It's obviously a nice skill to have, but it's not essential on a str 3 sacker.

It is 16 SPP for wrestle+SB (or tackle) it is more for any blitzer assuming you also want dodge. It is kind of the point, less SPPs in leagues. That you get a free dodge and jump-up (yes that is a wrestle combo).

If I was going to take Wrestle/SB/Dodge/Tackle on anyone on a DE team, it would be a lineelf.
