Jump up. People always forget what it does until it destroys them.

Guard a slight edge over JU. Either will serve.

Jump Up is gold.

I'd take jump up, for many of the reasons mentioned above, especially with st4 it means this blitzer will always be a threat, i'd say you want an mb, tackle blitzer hitting whenever possible and ju allows that.

You have engineered him to blitz. Therefore give him the proper blitzing skill, Frenzy. Jump Up is the only other viable option but not healthy to have on an unreliable non Block player. Since you chose Tackle instead Frenzy is the logical choice.

guard; its more usefull to get one more assist than additional blocking power or range as jump up could give you. there are plenty of good blitz-players on your team. the witches have frenzy so no need for more of it.

Its a blitzer, they come with block Wink . I like guard myself. Its always useful and more so on a ST4 player where they can't simply block the guarder instead of someone else. Tackle is also useful in such a situation for tieing players up in areas where you will then have the blocking advantage.
Jump up is nice but also means they are going to get a boot in face when they hit the ground anywhere that they can still be a threat.

Well a St4 Blodger is going to be VERY irratiting, coupled with some guard he is going to be a very difficult matter to get down. Dodge why not?
But Guard is a bit like a pie...
Personally I dont like much frenzy...
Even Jump Up is a bit of a surprise, nasty!
so for me
1Pie err.. Dodge
2 Jump up
3 Guard (very closed)
...
7 frenzy

Dump off. He becomes ball carrier extreme.not only is it harder to get a 2dice on him, but they have to clear away all the damn delves around him too.
Jump up. 3 movement = lots of options
Leader - extra reroll that doesnt hit your TR the same way
Guard - they have to remove him, or the rest of your line is st4 too.
nerves of steel - not as good at ag4, but still good.

as you said your self jump up with av8 sounds real nice to me, allso it will give you more MB blocks, as she can stand and slap without using blitz

JU followed by sidestep lets you stand in front of a cage, then when they hit ya you move next to the ballboy. Even if you go down, JU will let you block the ballboy to the side of the cage, where he can be blitzed if still standing, giving two shots at him instead of just one. A couple leaping guards do wonders there...
