Dear Stunty Hive Mind,
I have this 7MA Strig Lord called Brian. He is the CEO of this team. He has just rolled 6+4 for his third skill, which makes my life a bit more difficult than normal.
I present three options: +MA, +AV or a normal skill (probably mighty blow but you don't have to specify). You may also choose pie. You may also not answer at all or shout at me for polluting the forum with more skill choice drivel.
He has block already so he is safe from any major gaffes and 7MA has been super at low TV but with with loads of juicy skills to pick from I wonder if another MA is one too many given he already outpaces his food by +2 and he won't be doing much ball handling.
I've put +AV on there as well but I don't think it's really worth it so probably the choice is take the +MA or not.
Whoever makes the best argument get a thrall named after them.
Cheers,
M0g |

Yes, take the MA. Being able to run down almost any Stunty and 3DB them is awesome. You can get Tackle at 51. |

I'd have to agree on +MA, speed isn't a real strength on any stunty roster, so an MA of 8, especially on a bigger body, is almost godly. That kind of speed on a big guy can take over games. |

I very recently had a similar choice when my Strig Lord rolled 5+5. Doubles are not much use to a Strig Lord so I went with a normal still after seriously considering taking the MV or AV. I decided there are too many good normal picks to waste any on doubles or stats except for maybe +ST.
His very next game my opponent got a blitz on the opening kickoff and chainsawed him resulting in a -MV injury, apo offered to make it -AV and regen failed. So I was glad I had taken the normal skill.
I think you should go for a normal skill. |

With move 8 he can either be a great scorer or a great sweeper/long range blitzer. As he has claw and block probably the blitzing route but break tackle or sure hands later would make him more versatile.
Move 8 is great! |

Thanks for all the feedback folks, I went with the +MA partly for the uber-sweeper role but also as I really shouldn't turn down the chance to build such an interesting player, lest I be smited by nuffle...
I'll just have to wait for mighty blow to deal with those big guys and tackle for the wee ones.
As promised the most helpful poster gets a thrall named after them, garyt1 welcome to the gang! |

What? My post was 10x better than Garyt1's. Nuffle will surely smite down this abomination of a player now. Kiss of death mate, should have picked me. |

Well if you can find a semi-amusing food based pun on your name then we can see whether Brian will let you join the ranks. |
