Gratuitous boast blog...
Hello fumblers.

Normally I hate these kind of blogs, so I sort of loathe myself for posting it... but I am quite generally uncertain! So, I want to survey the collective wisdom of my favourite nerds.

So this guy:
https://fumbbl.com/p/player?player_id=10809766

Mr Hero164 (Dark Elf Blitzer) +st, +st, dodge, tackle, leap

just rolled 6+4.

Options are: MA+, SS, Frenzy, Strip Ball, Sure Hands.

What do I take?!

+MA you dirty lucker....
Posted by keggiemckill on 2016-12-20 23:16:23
It's hard not to take that MA considering how helpful it with your play style.
Posted by Uedder on 2016-12-20 23:45:15
I'd be torn between ma and frenzy. But i'm a nut for frenzeh, so i guess ma is the right answer?

do more, be more

DP!
Posted by erased000026 on 2016-12-21 02:23:03
Id take the ss.
Posted by happygrue on 2016-12-21 02:30:34
Well, presuming to preach to you playing DE is not something I would try, but since you asked... ;)

I dislike tackle paired with strip ball when I can help it. +MA is always tempting on such a player, as is sidestep. I can see the case for sure hands, but as a leaper with tackle it seems like much of his function is as a sacker/hitter so I would find SH elsewhere...

SS if you want to keep him alive, as sacking is often dangerous work and people just are not going to hit him as much or as effectively if he has SS. +MA is not as tempting as it would be if you did not already have such great speed.

You are currently lacking Frenzy. Are you going to be lacking Frenzy for a while? If the witches are not being replaced soon it seems Frenzy will be great now and also great later. I think with the team you have I'd take Frenzy on him, SS or +MA might be better choices long-term, depending on what other players you are hoping to train up.

I'd throw out one other option if you want to maximize him as a sacker: Wrestle. Then he gets into a cage and unless they have 4 guards or a +stat ballcarrier you are going to get 75% to take down a "normal" ballcarrier.

Why is "Die In A Fire" not being proposed?
Posted by Verminardo on 2016-12-21 08:21:22
Now, that's just plain rude.

Can't go wrong here really but we all know you want to take the Frenzy so do eeeet. ;-)
Posted by zakatan on 2016-12-21 10:27:56
I'd take +MA

Then for the next skills, SS and... oh wait
Posted by Chainsaw on 2016-12-21 10:48:48
AG4 leap, srsly?

Frenzy with side step would have been killer. However with leap I like grue's thinking (and he always out thinks me). Wrestle!
Posted by Russo on 2016-12-21 12:05:40
My two-penneth...

I agree with Grue that Wrestle is good on a Leaping sacker...however do you REALLY want your +2 STR Blitzer on the floor in the middle of a cage????

Its a balance about how much your prepared to sacrifice for the win in the case of such a rare player.

I would go SS or +1 MA
Posted by PeteW on 2016-12-21 14:35:59
Ag4 leap is a risk that I don't usually take, but the threat and potential reward is huge.

I'm planning on getting a witch, and frenzy could get him into trouble.

Not wrestle. I like the idea, but he would get fouled!

Gonna go ma 8.

Thanks guys !
Posted by MattDakka on 2016-12-21 16:21:57
+MA, of course.
Cheers!
Posted by licker on 2016-12-21 16:42:17
Hard to not take the MA. I don't see side step or frenzy as being viable unless you have both, which he doesn't and won't.

Now wrestle sounds sexy in a kind of 'I'm much cooler than you' way, but all your opponents are just going to be like 'We're not even wearing our good shoes and we're still going to jump on your head'.

So if this was a short term goal like for a major or something you just needed to win, Wrestle would be a sexy choice.

If it's just general going to play the team for 1000 games then yeah, no wrestle.
Posted by PurpleChest on 2016-12-22 12:53:22
I would like you to take wrestle. On the ground at my feet is where i want that blitzer.

Or sure hands/SS because using him defensively is where it's at.

Frenzy or MA will make him more offensive and hella scary, and your playstyle is offensive enough. No one needs you being more dangerous.
