My Raptor, Xbalanque, rolled 11 for his first skill. Is ag4 worth it on a No Hands player or should I just go with Block? |

Ag 4 is great on him! At least when he gets block and tackle/strib ball. Can dodge through tackle zones safely to blitz his target.
Even though they seem to take forever to get skills, he might be great some day. |

You can get normals on normals? Probs best to go Block Tackle and hope for MB then really.
Hard to give that up in stunty for what essentially amounts to two-heads for 40tv. |

But he could strip ball then pick it up in a TZ or 2. He could also do some completions to keep the SPP moving if need be. |

He doesn't have hands.
Still, yeah, dodging anywhere on 2+ (and even having a 75% chance of escaping diving tackle) is great. You can get block next time, after all. |

He can't pick up. He's got no hands. |

Went for +ag. Probably less useful than Block but who am I to scorn Nuffle's blassing? |

I love 4AG on a blitzer type.
Makes it easier to blitz the person you want to blitz, IE the ball carrier, because 4AG dodge > 3AG dodge.
He loses some of the benefits of AG4 with No Hands, which does make +AG a bit more bloated on him than it would otherwise be, but it's still a huge boost to a blitzer type.
But this guy is stunty. Suddenly, every dodge is a 2+, avoiding Diving Tackle is a 4+, and once he gets the Stunty killing trio (block, tackle, MB) he'll be an absolute terror on the field. |

not to mention that it could grow up as a leaping tiny terror.
oh boy he's just filled with potential... and comes with a giant red sign reading "kill me".
keep the other tacklers occupied with the small fries (=rookie skinks) while he's doing his jurassic park job. |
