The only problem, Joost, is that all Right Stuff players lack G access, so Pro is a double.

Good point, thanks. But I think I'd still consider it on a designated OTT player, such as the gobbo in a Chaos Pact Team or a Halfling. Mind, I only play friendly games and like the fluff aspect, so I tend to ignore a too high TV.

pro is also good for dauntless, frenzy, fullbacks, and legends.

Here is the case against PRO when we talk about blocking.

Why not take FRENZY then? It is a automatic PRO reroll BUT with the negative of you push back on the first block and now we enter the land of uncertainty on the second block. You could go from a 2DB to a -2DB on the second. Also you could end up on a sideline for a nice juicy shove.


Frenzy > Pro if you do not care about the great unkown of the follow up block.

This one time at band camp I took pro, and it was REALLY funny.

Oh yeah, frenzy is good too. This is a non-sense issue I suppose.

How about Pro on a Right Stuff player to help with landing after TTM? For a desperate last turn Touchdown, when all TRR's are gone. Also useful for that extra dodge necessary for that touchdonw, or the catch. Sounds pretty useful to me, but interested what others think.


Pro is a doubles skill for all those players. Way way down on the list.

You beat me to it. However, I can respond to what follows:

Which is why Nuffle created Guardspam.

So Pro on Norse, and Frenzy on Dorfs for the offensive crew.

Or Stand Firm. SF would be the opposite to Pro. It seldom fails, and is purely positional. Fend is more defensive.

Which leads me to this question: why not Fend/Pro on Norsemen?

Well, is it?

The WMD are known for 2 things.

#1 laying out pixels into the CAS box

#2 their coach is a notorious CPOMB whore.

SO

What if?

The WMD did an experiment over a 100 matches.

They strive to take PRO on their CPOMB monstrosities at 76 SPP skill up.

Would your rep as a pixel reaper double? triple? or stay the same?

A billion?

Please, give me wisdom what is a billion times better.

I thought DirtyPlayer was good.

Now Iam not sure.

Now I feel Iam missing out on the billion times better skill for a norse lino.

Shocked

I mean, after fend, dp, kick, tackle...

But still you've got enough players on the rest of your team hopefully making key blitzes and blocks that you'd have to prioritize blocks with the pro to get milage out of it. But if you've got 4 MBs with Norse you're not going to do that to open the game most the time.

Sir, you are trying to talk sense to some dude who lives in a tree in the pacific northwest.

There is a reason for his insanity and it is not because he lacks logic.

I was unclear: you mix Fend for defenders and Pro for attackers.
