My Orc blitzer is missing a game, leaving me with only ten players. I'm deciding between a goblin, a lineorc, or a second thrower.

Personally I'm leaning towards the thrower, but wanna hear other opinions.

... the gobbo is even worse...

If you have a troll, there is reason at least for a gobbo.

MA 5 AV 8 ball carrier says everything. Slow, smushy and takes spp away from where you want it; the blitzers.

I like lineorc, but you get a loner. I would just use the loner but having a spare lineorc isn't a bad thing when the blitzer comes back.

No yeah, I need a backup anyway, so I'm not gonna take the loner. Thanks for the advice though!

You don't need a second Thrower, first one isn't that bad. He has some use but personally I don't like it. Goblin is only for laughing with Throw Team Mate combined with the Troll. 3rd Lineorc gets you a bench for fouling once your team is healthy again, and he also is more useful on defense for line fodder instead of risking your Thrower or your Black Orks.

Too late, looks like you bought the lineman. You should of saved the gold in case of a blitzer of black orc perm or death. Having a lineman with loner isn't a bad thing as you can put him on the line on defense or run him into dangerous areas to assist without worrying about him dying or getting hurt.

Like others said you could save the money. But of the options lineorc was the right choice assuming you don't have a death or perm next match..

I use two throwers, but that's at real high TV when I have 16 guys. I'd get my first goblin before a second thrower.

I’m not playing highly competitively or anything, if a Black Ork or Blitzer dies, so what, I’ll just be without one.

I like throwers and the gobbo too, don't understand the hate there - they offer good tactical options. Would also only start with one thrower though until high tv. Listen to Morehouse, he's very good with orcs and just won the UI with them!
