My Thro-Ra rolled double, normally I would give Dodge or Strong Arm... but in this case he is playing in a Royal Rookie Rumble.

My team has only 2 Rerolls, maybe leader for him?
My next opponents will be Human or Dark Elf (more unlikely) and then Lizardmen.

Dodge is the first thing I'm attracted too. Perhaps Leader or Nerves of Steel.

It depends on how you play. You may want to think about Sure Feet for that extra movement if you make a break for the endzone.

I'll tend to block as much as possible so I can later easy walk besides the sideline to the scoring zone.

I'd have to go with dodge... on a khermi team, you normaly don't pass that much, what with ag 2 as the best... you need a secure ball-handler, and with dodge, sure hands and later block, it won't get much better...

Side Step, though just looking at the RRR games Dodge might be better as you are unlikely to face any tacklers.

Is Dodge really more helpful in the next 3 games than Block? I will probably have Dodge only and not also Block as 2nd skill.

I would suggest kick or leader to be a supporting player. Any passing skill is not worth it, as you will pass none. Dodge is nice but i would not take it, as you will have only 1 and the opp will surely have 1 tackle. (Dodge is strong if all your players have it, because the opp will not have tackle for all of them, save dorfs. And the dodge reroll... you will not dodge.)

Diving tackle is good, but this is the intended ballcarrier. He is too important to have on the ground, i.e. foulbait.

Kick is no good either as this is the offensive spearhead of the team. Give him something useful...

As said, Side Step, Sure feet, and Sprint (for when a cage is too far away to get into and you need that extra square to catch up with your players) are good, but the best choice here is:

DODGE! Because then he won't get knocked down as much and he can move easier if they break the cage. Go dodge.

I gave mymine catch in that situation. It allows me to move the ball better between my 2 throwras.

Actually, I hadn't thought about it, but kick mught be a great option in the RRR.

Dodge seems a good choice in this situation. The humans may have developed one tackler, but the lizzies won't.
