I don't have block yet and with it being doubles restricted i think i should pass on the str just wondering if almost always having 3 die blocks would be a better option I know you guys are probly getting tired of me asking about skills but what should i do |

Not only does he get 3d blocks, but people have harder time blocking him, and dless stuff against him fails a lot ofter too. So it's good for him. Plus you can breack tackle to about anywhere (not that you couldn't before  ) |

Never waste a St+
If you give him block he will roll double or triple skull (murphys law) and will die with apo fail |

I voted for the option with "Idiot" in it.
No seriously, go for the Strength. St7 is awesome.

Yes agree.
I too voted for the ST.
Allthough the probabilities are like this 3d without block 1/27 to fail.
2d with block 1/36.
However odds of getting a needed roll eg pow is much greater with 3d.
And hr can get Block later, with a bit of luck |

Leap! Take leap now! Sure it only works on a natural 6, but the cheering you'll recieve from the spectators will be worth all the failed attempts, plus noone will know what to do when suddenly the oak jumps over their ogre and blitzes the ball-carrier to smithereens.
No? well okay, I guess I'd take block then. You only need 1 assist as it is to get 3 dice, and he will be so much more reliable with block. |

I take block, so that Multi block becomes a much better pick for the 3rd skill (behind Guard).
Took a ST 7 tree once, and I always regretted not taking block. |

The only time to maybe (and I say maybe) not take +Str, is when you have the chance of a Dauntless & Horns GR.
Str is a must, and it's 3 dice against a normal lineman for the block |

Another potential bogous try would be +MA, so that you don't have to use a RR to have it stand. I'd take Block right away, an st7 rooted tree is useless. |

a st6 block rooted tree is just as useless...
I'd definitely take str, and if you happen to roll str again on a next skill, take it again. |

On any other Big Guy, I'd take block. St7 is pretty powerful, though... Then again, early turnovers are responsible, should I ever get grey hair, so I still voted for block :p |
