Dodge breaktackle is a nice combo but its not that often you get your tree next to a cage |

Question: Does piling on prevent taking root? If so, the combination of jump up and piling on should greatly improve the mobility and usefulness of the tree... |

They must have just added the agility roll to block after Jump up with this last LRB iteration, eh? Didn't realize that was a rule now. |

reason why he still needs block: since juggernaut does only work on a blitz, block is better and still needed. it helps hurting people and protect your tree. how often do you blitz with him? ofc jump up dodge and frenzy are fun options and all okay, but if you wanna go effective take block. |

Tackle, or Jump Up. Id be tempted to give him Strip Ball, because Break Tackling with him into a Cage is a 3 up.
JU for standing him up, you don't need to hit with him. That guarantees a proper stand up each turn. We all know how hard it is to send Tree up sometimes. |

No love for PO trees... the job of trees is simply to hurt things faster than said stuff breaks your flings. PO does that. To PO you need either ma3 or ju. Doubles? Jump up please!
He can easily throw 3 dies and can use rerolls, block is not a necessity as it is with most big guys imo. |

Jump Up. Every time. Only exception is if they already are MA 3.
Jump Up means no longer have to roll 4+ to stand up...it is massive help to halfling teams. Take Jump Up...love it.
Examples: Andrea Acorn and Aidan Oakenshield |

You've got a blodge/BT MA 3 tree.
You've got a Blodge POMB fling.
You've got a couple of AG 4 flings.
That's your team. Your other tree will support them best with ... Block, followed by Grab and Multi. Juggs becomes a bit of a waste, but it probably already was with the quality of hitters around him. Better than Jump Up is not falling down in the first place. If you get another double, grab Tackle. |

normally block comes to mind but I guess you don't want it considering the poll options.
So I'd go with pro. If you really want to be adventurous...passblock. |

Yeeeah, not taking 'Pass Block'. Though it did work out for Dal on his tree!
Guess I should've put a few more considerations on the poll.
Narrowing to dodge, tackle or jump up atm, but favoring dodge.
For the adventurous pick I'll consider 'sure feet' |
