Ok, I don't usually ask in the forums, but this one has me puzzled...
Roll is 5+5 on this Dodge,+ST Dwarf Blocker...
+MA on Dwarves is always good...
+AV on this guy is actually an option since he's already a stud.
I don't have a Leader on the team and if anyone fits the bill stat-wise, it's this guy.
Suggestions? |

Diving Tackle. Stand Firm later and he'll be massively annoying. |

DT. You have 6 players as fast as or faster than him with +MA, and it's not as though he can carry the ball anyway. Play anyone who dodges, mark them, watch them fail to get away. |

+MA, since you don't want your ST4 awesome dude lying on the ground. |

The fact that A) you don't have run/slay makes me think Leader for the extra reroll, but barring that go DT. |

You get yourself sidestep and your next skill if it's a normal roll: guard. |

Well, if you're running a themed team instead of trying to win, just take something that fits with the theme. |

I'd go +Ma, but DT isn't a bad option. I certainly wouldn't take leader, because an actual re-roll is only 20k more and doesn't ruin a good player |

Hmm. You know what would make him super annoying? Sidestep. |

Damn won't let me edit. DT then SF or MA then BT or MB then Guard.
Tough choice but whatever you do don't take SS, Leader or AV. |

Not Leader - St 4 and Leader is only a savings of 20k in TV vs. just buying a RR, gotta be something better for this star.

I don't play Dwarves, so I have to ask... is it?
+MA to your slowest player... that gives you one more medium-dwarf speed player - who is still only MA 5, and so still "slow" in the game. Does that one MA 5 player now make that much of a diff to the team?
(Otoh, you don't seem to be using Runners or Troll Slayers on your team, so that makes the 2 MA 5 Blitzers all the "speed" you have atm.)
I would have suggested Jump Up, but Ag 2 = a 3+ roll - not the best.
Sidestep, with Guard at 76? Blodgestepper Guards are great for Elves, can't be too bad for Dwarves and their position game.
Or Diving Tackle - classic to shut down dodgers, and w/ St 4 that much harder to block away.
But I'm not too sure I'd want this guy on the ground more than he has to be - so Sidestep. |

SS is a waste of a double roll and TV when you can get SF on normals. |
