Big Guys cannot normally use a RR. With Pro you can at least attempt to reroll that Bonehead or those skulls or that failed break tackle or whatever else you might need to reroll. Personally I take pro over block on every big guy. This shouldn't even be a question now that you already have block. Take pro. |

Hard choice, I´d be torn between stand firm and pro. Pro is really really great for a BG, as he is more reliable that way (but not too reliable either - increases his chance to pass the bone-head roll from 83.3% to 90.3% and decreases his chance to fall over when doing a 2db from 2.8% to 1.5% if I did the math right). SF on the other hand is one of the the best skill. Combined with break tackle it means you can safely try the craziest dodges. As I said, hard choice, depends on your playstyle imho |

i'd say dodge, for pretty much exactly the same reason someone already said above..
i'd also like to point out that you're rolling far too many doubles!!

Take pro, and get a multiblock next time! It works alright.
And yes, stop rolling doubles! |

I voted Stand Firm, it would make him a crazy dodger. But I can see the values of having Pro too. Tough choice... |

I appear to bew unique in voting Shadowing - Variety is the spice of life and it'll be a nasty surprise for anyone who forgets about it - and they will...

Pro - My Tree has Block and Pro as first 2 Skills, have had entire games where opposition has committed 4 guys to taking him down, only for him to get back up with the assistance of Pro. With 2 Assists, Block, and Pro U only have ~0.002% chance (~1 in 400) chance of going down on a block - and ~1 in 30 chance of failing your BoneHead - makes for a very reliable LOS Pounder |

1 in 30 chance failing a bonehead? how´s that? It´s still 1 in 10... Pro is still a very good choice for bigguys |

I´d take tackle, of all the BG´s I have played in the past the most dangerous ones were those with Block, tackle.
Now that he has a tail too, you can make it even harder to get away from you.
But Dodge is great for surviving, SF is good defensively/dodgingly wise, and Pro is allways good for Bigguys.
Depends on how you intend to use him though.
Also from my experience with lizzies they struggle to get players with block, tackle (breaktackle) which in particular is why I think you should take it.
edit: the risk to fail bonehead goes from 1/6 to approximately 1/8.5.
And the risk of going down on a 2d lock goes from 1/36 to approximately 1/53.
There is a 50% chance of making that pro roll. |

The actual probability for passing the bonehead roll with Pro is 90.3% (approximately 1/10).

The actual probability is 1/70 (1.43%). |
