Curious as to people's thoughts for this guy. He rolled double fives for his next skill.

Just my suggestion since he's one of four AG 3 players on a dwarf team. Make him a versatile ball carrier. I think I wouldve gone catch or something like it for my blitzers. But hey I like to differentiate myself a bit. But then again he has AG 4. So hmm dodge or sidestep would be good as well imo. SF is a waste I think. He can dodge already and you got better candidates for SF.

When in doubt, use DP.

I'd probably take the +MA since dwarves really need it and he can use it effectively with AG 4. Stand firm sounds also really good, he can safely try those AG 4 dodges and it combines well with guard. Leap sounds like a fun idea, but it would be a 3+ roll without reroll and since you can't GFI while leaping in the client, your range would be quite limited.

I see this as a straight choice between +MA and Stand Firm, and would (narrowly) go for +MA. This guy has the potential to be really useful and mobile in a pinch and I think the priority is MA so that he can get close to where the action is. As long as he can avoid Ageing, every skill he gets is going to make him better and better (whereas most dwarves run out of good skill choices after about three).

Stand Firm - it *rocks* with AG 4. Then Sure Hands as next regular skill. It will make him really good at breaking away and grabbing the ball.

I see this as a straight choice between +MA and Stand Firm, and would go for standfirm simply out of principle (I refuse to take +MA on a double 5).

EDIT: Oh yeah and I am lazy, that's why I nicked the first part of the sentence from Pac. Also imitation is the truest form of flattery and all that jazz Wink

+MA
Dwarfs lack speed, and if You get the chance to change that, or at least improve it...just do it.

it's nearly 50% for +ma. I can't agree more.

The runners are too fragile to rely on, so the more MA you've got on your ballhandlers, the better. SF works great with AG4, but movement is more important for dwarfs.

Meh, you chose stand firm. It's not bad, but I voted for +MA.

I'd take the +MA to counteract the Dwarven Team's biggest weakness. And I am quite sure this guy would have gotten Sure Hands instead of Guard after that AG upgrade.

yeah +mv would of been smarter i feel , it would of given you the ability to pose a scoring threat , I kind of agree as well that guard was a waste on this player .You have so many guarders already , a few players would be useful in amongst the mob of bruisers .
