Hi all
This is the team.
https://fumbbl.com/p/team?team_id=859589
The blitzers are underdeveloped, but things are changing thanks to the new MVP system: a first blitzer got a skill roll.
6 4
Should I go for +1ma, +1av, or a regular development skill (dodge almost certainly)?
Many thanks |

take the movement, all stats increases on elves are worth it every time! |

Absolutely take the MA.
But take Dodge next. Dodge keeps elves elfing, and keeps them alive. |

People do tend to underrate speed. On such a young team, it might well be tempting to ignore the +MA and take Block, Dodge or Wrestle to make the team more able to win now, but in 10-15 games, you might well be feeling better about a fast Lineman.
I think I'd take the MA and keep the guy in and around the MVP conversation (with a couple of positionals ready to skill). The sooner he is faster with a second skill, the sooner he's starting to realise his potential. |

Sorry for my reading fail, apparently I was having a senior moment (I clicked the link and everything)! Absolutely take it on a Blitzer. |

+MA all the way and make him the scorer - compared to other elves the DE lack a bit of speed, this helps them in that respect. |

But yeah, don't take it in this case | Armor increases are only ever viable on such a small pool of players though, especially with claws out there entirely negating it. I also find that my +AV players tend to be my MNG players a lot as well.
Gave +AV to a Norse lineman, he got badly hurt in every game after, with a few MNGs as well before death settled in.
Gave +AV to a Rotter on a Nurgle team, he's usually the first one hurt when I play his team.
Gave +AV to a zombie on a Necro team. First game out, took an MNG from a non-MB hit.
Gave +AV to a jump-up ClawPOMB chaos dwarf, still healthy, but no one wants to play his team.
And, in most cases, +MA is a much better choice |

IMO you take +AV on any player with AV9...move him to AV10, best odds in the game.
Maybe take it on a AV8 player who just plays the LOS.
Otherwise, take +MA. |

Not having MA8 on any player is Darkies' biggest weakness compared to the other Elf races. Remedy for that? Yes please. No brainer. |

yeah, +av was good on a pomber, but now that PO is gone its's useless... |
