He has guard. I wanted block then side step. I guess I could use the double for Jump Up, but I dont think that really makes him a better player... I'm leaning towards just going block.

Here's the team link:

I'd get Mighty Blow because Mighty Blow is too cool for school. Alternatively, Dauntless could be of some use, but seeing F1 being an elfball oriented thingy it might see little action.

I don't usually like to turn down doubles, but I'd go for Block here. I find that Guard-elves get targetted: taking Block would significantly increase his chances of getting to his next skill. If he gets another double then Jump Up is ideal, but a player can only go on for so long without Block.

Edit: Awesome team, btw: my Dark Elves would only aspire to such heights! Cool

Personally, I'd go for jump up since a guard lino is almost always in melee so he will get to use jump up plenty of times and with side step he can become a real bother to the opposing team.

Block it is. I'm amazed your st5 blitzo wasn't fouled to death yet.

Cant tell you how much fun it is to have a St 5 elf. He rarely gets knocked down, but he's definitely been the target of fouls when they get him down.

Most definitely block. Think about it... the best three attainable skills of all in the list for this player is block dodge and sidestep. If he lives long enough to get all three of them he will have 51 spp. Do you really want to plan further ahead than that? A guard elf rarely lives longer than that, especially not if he lacks block.
