Big 'Un https://fumbbl.com/p/player?player_id=10853867 who plays for https://fumbbl.com/p/team?team_id=817750 is currently sitting pretty at 175spp.

Any reason not to take the following

Normals: break tackle as he already has dodge

Doubles: either pro or tackle

Stats: just strength

My other troll has a very similar build, having blodge, stand firm and guard. I chose piling on instead of grab and he took break tackle at legend.

Not intended to be a boastful post as 1) it's not a ma10 or 11 gutter runner and 2) goblins!

Thanks!

Perhaps get the SPP, make the skill roll and then ask?

Hmmm, I think it should have been BT instead of Grab for the 5th skill. BT brings added value to Dodge, without it it's just a defensive skill for AG1 player but adds almost nothing to mobility.
I would even consider it in case of doubles as legend.
If you go with the doubles, I think you have to go Pro since he won't have BT. If he had BT, tackle would be best.

Thanks. Would do normally but I've got an evening free tonight as this is the only team I use. Wanted to allow enough time to get some opinions without rushing a decision so I could use this team.

Delusions about ottd without ttm. Can't explain, must've failed really stupid.

Other troll already blodged and I thought it would a powerful meat shield combo. They do just absorb blocks like it ain't a thing but I agree 100% about the need for bt. Might pass on everything for that.

Take +ST, ignore other +stats
Normal - break tackle
Double - pro

If only you'd taken break tackle over grab, then I'd say tackle on a double. I'd be even tempted to take break tackle over pro.

I'd take break tackle over anything. Without it your opponent potentially has as much control over your troll as you do.

Based on past performance that's not much control Smile he's a petulant bugger.

BT it is. Dodge into 3 tackle zones on 75% and maybe grab can help deal with those sideline hugging sidesteppers
