I prefer him for the same tv, Ogre team:

I'm not too hung up on managing my TV. In my opinion any established team below 2000tv shouldn't be playing the game (bar injuries/deaths of course).

Same ogre got another double... dodge? A blodging ogre is going to be pretty decent

Either that or tackle. Personally I'd prefer to have the tackler before the blodger on the team.

Too easy to stay away from big scary MA 5 tacklers. Dodge and Break Tackle is good fun, and of course Pro, though more for the Loner Ogres than the real thing. I guess Ogres do lack for Tackle, but Guard tends to make up for it, along with DT snotlings.

Sure Hands too. Strippers are a pain, but you could perhaps save that option for a +AG Ogre. Eh, it works anyway, Chorfs and Khemri make it work.

Indeed opponents can avoid the tackler but once he gets break tackle he becomes a big threat to important players.
For me, Ogres with three doubles get Blodge - Tackle or Blodge - Sure hands

For me, double six on a skill with Ogres is a +ST Ogre.
Although Block is an awesome skill to have, I prefer to go for the stat increase instead.

Nuffle is saying you could have had your +st block ogre, but will have to settle for something lesser now.

Go Pro.

+1S and then BT for me since I like breaking cages. I would also like S6 and multi.

I would take st6. With break tackle he will be the perfect cagebreaker.

Take dodge for the RR on cage-breaking once you get BT. Or take tackle to knock people down more reliably. But you probably won't blitz with him on blodgers anyway.

Turn down a +ST for block? on an ogre? Are you a crazy man?

ST6 > block for the simple reason of math. 1 in 36 to get +St and 1/6 to get block or any other double.

Also if you turn down +ST then he cannot get to ST7 or what if another Ogre rolls a +ST? you going to turn that down also. And then another ogre rolls a +ST? Well I quess block it is since you denied your self the shot of having 3 ST6 ogres.

Never ever turn down +ST on a ogre or heck any big guy.

I am also a big fan of +S.
The other reasoning being that Ogre teams have considerable amounts of guard, and one single assist is enough to make the somewhat risky blockless 2dice into a pretty safe 3dice.

Even better, a 3 dice has 50% chances of downing a Blodger, and Blodgers are difficult for Ogre teams.

+1 to that

Despite the use of Sure Hands on an Ogre team, having blodging Ogres is a very useful skill-set for the long haul with Ogres.

I agree. If you ever got 2 +ST rolls on a big guy and had a 7 ST monster you wouldn't need to worry much about dice rolls because very few people are even going to bother attacking you!
