A general strategy question:

I play a vamp team and I now have enough block thralls to populate the LOS (although I still have rookie thralls that have to play each kick off). The question is, should I put my block thralls on the line (to limit ko/cas) or should I keep using rookies in order to protect more skilled players?

I didn't play Vampires so far.
If I were to encounter your experienced Thralls on the LoS however I'd be overjoyed ^^
Some of my "weaker" teams kept one or the other minor perm block player for the job.

Depends... If you have blodge ss vamps vs no tackle, I'd put them on the line.

I'd try to skill all the thralls pretty equally.

Thats just me though.

Do Vampires seem like CHUMPS to you?

Play your most useless players on the LOS for defense.
For offense you could place players you intend to Block with there too.
But still your most useless players should be up there too for assists or to block and potentially gain spps so they will be less useless.

You should put your most usless thralls (or niggled) on the LOS. You will need the skilled thralls for the blitz in the next turn. You should avoid blitzing with the vamps as much as possible, since ofab can make things nasty. The only time you should consider puting a vampire on the LOS is when you are short on thralls, so you dont risk geting every thall knocked out.


A good strategy is to place the vampires so they can cover the hole pitch. Use your thralls to blitz and block. When other team advances you should look for a opportunity to use hypnotic gaze so you can get a chanse to blitz the ballcarrier.
