Leipziger Schwarz, Army's 6348 tackler, rolled 5-5.
He's playing in this team.
I'm thinking of MA, AV, Dodge, Leap, or good ol' Mighty Blow.
Which one should I take? |

Wanted to say Dodge, but a) remembered you shouldn't refuse stat upgrades (possibly a little bit nostalgic right now, playing low TV Agility Monsters) and b) you then have two 7 3 4 8 Block Tackle Horns beastmen - how unlikely is that? |

Leap. Add VLL and you have a 2+ cage buster bringing a ST4 tackle blitz to the opponent's ball carrier. Then Wrestle or Strip Ball for his Legend skill.
ETA: Shame you can't change the spelling of his first name to Leapziger.... |

Dodge on AG4 is too good to pass up imo. |

Tricky. Tossup between MA and dodge. If dodge, next skill is two heads. |

+MA was my vote, Dodge makes a lot of sense, neither will save him from SDSU if you guys make the championship.
In a normal league I'd say Two Heads next whatever you take. But when he hits the draft, Two Heads will be either deleted or changed to a "corresponding" skill, and you don't get any choice over what that skill will be. So take Mighty Blow. Make RF decide what to do with him, whether to take off his Tackle, or to leave him as a Super-Star 'cuz he's kinda special for a Line player.
Says he's a Sophomore. He's got 20 games though. Is he a Junior, or did he red-shirt? If the latter, that's impressive. |

Rolling a 10 is less likely than rolling a double.
If you don't take +MA then having a MA 8 Beastman will be less likely.
This said, Dodge is not a bad choice at all because it has synergy with AG 4, it's up to you.
I suggested +MA because the "10" roll required to get +MA has a higher "rarity" value than a double roll. |

Did he earn any SPP in Season XXIII?
I think a +MA +AG Block MB player is a great draft pick. Yeah, he'll lose Tackle, but he's going to lose a skill no matter what you do with him.
