I'd say agility... but I only got some 100+ games with woodies.... and I'm not a very good coach vs bashers... But since 99% of your victims vill have block, I'd use him as a blitzer against blodgers and protect him from Synn Wink

LOL.

I didn't ask for your advice ~Plorg, since I knew you'd just say DP Razz

Also, grats on having 5.19 fouls per game in ranked. Highest I could find!!!! You rock!

Yay 5.19! Very Happy
I voted Block actually, to go with the existing MB and Tackle.

Hmmm.. even though I'd hate to give away any strategy tips before the WO I'd have to say Block. Looking at your team you have enough +AG already. Besides, + ag without dodge is good but not great. And I agree with a previous poster that you probably have made up your mind already, and now are just lamenting the inevitable, i.e. choosing a normal skill over a stat increase. Wink

p.s.

Nice move positioning yourself below me in the coach ranking to get a better seed for the WO. Very Happy
Hmm... Maybe I have to make a Vampire team and lower my coach rating to avoid Petter or Malthor. Twisted Evil

See you, and preferrably a dead Mr. Fantastic on the pitch.

I'd go for block. Being a MB tackle player you most likely use him for actions that don't require the Ag5.

Then again, my record with woodies is apperently nog good enough for my opinion to count, so I'll just go vote Wink

You have already stated the mainpoint here...

But it also depends on opp! Does it necessary have to be block? Why not dodge? Since he is your only tackler...he'll most likely be used as a blitzer vs blodgers...then that dodge might come in handy so a RR won't be used on dodges needed to make the blitz...but then again...I'm a sucker for stat increases...and high elves...not wood elves Rolling Eyes

+AG. You can always fill up with Block and Leap later. Smile

+AG.

Never miss an opportunity to build a monster.
Who cares if he dies on a pow/skull?

Come on, they are superheroes. They can't be ST3 AG4 like everybody else...

Wow, what a team! I'd go for the +AG. You've got other players (with blodge, no less) who stand a chance of picking up skills who can get tackle.

hmmm... defence wins championships? Laughing Then why not take Diving Tackle to go with that nice juicy tackle (you also have no Diving tackle... Surprised ). You really need to put the slowdown on those Elves, slow them down enough to let your WD get in with his Strip Ball and yer man with the AG6 to scoop the ball out and away!

+AG isnt that useful when you already have lots, except if you plan on dodging a lot into 1TZ or more with all your players Wink

I think Block isnt a necessity in this case, you have plenty of line fodder, you have plenty of hitters, you need more defensive specialists, as you do have 6 Guard... one being a leaper, so I think Block isnt really what you want to take and getting 2 dice should be OK. Also, if you take Block he will skill up faster with the MB and Tackle he possesses... you dont want him ageing in the middle of the Warpstone...

I would also suggest you think hard about Strip Ball (remember I told you to get Dr Strange SB, and turned out to be useful!).
You already have one Strip Ball but two will take a little heat off your WD, and give you more defensive options and headaches for your opponent.

So, I would seriously consider Diving Tackle or Strip Ball, but I would be leaning towards Diving Tackle
