To the "take pro" people... Why would you take Pro on an Ogre team Ogre?

Wait... why would you take pro ever?

Dodge. A S5 blodger is nasty. Also the amount of dodge on the team with the snotlings means that he will not be the only target for the opponents tackles.
Also tackle is a far less common skill in FFB than it was in LRB4 as there are much more skills to choose from.

Tackle may be less common but it is still very important especially when Ogres come up against Elf teams that can run rings around them if the Ogres have no tackle. Dodge is nice but he is already pretty well protected with Block and st5. This guy is about doing maximum damage to the opponent so anything that increases that chance has too be a good thing.

On a Loner maybe (after Block at least), but not in an Ogre team.

Tackle is a lot better than frenzy against dodge/blodge (because it's better without rerolls AND it works better with rerolls), also with snotling diving tackle it has synergies. Comparing the two I would go tackle hands down..

You need a sure hands ogre too, but I guess piling on sorta rules that out.

Jump up is the other choice, because that would mean you will get to use PO every turn without being outpositioned (this guy will be blitzing a lot, I figure).

He's using about 95% of all blitz moves Wink

I really want you guys to say, go for jump up or frenzy, as i have so much fun with this team and want to have even more. Tackle and dodge maybe the better choice, but frenzy!!!

I am very unsure right now, but i think i'll might give him frenzy. Thanks for your thoughts on him.

edit: he took frenzy. So now, the score is 1-0 between absurd fun and logical cleverness

If he's blitzing a lot and using piling on a lot, then you will get more mileage out of jump up. You'll get 3 squares of movement basicly every turn with it (just remember to PO armor fails too), whilst frenzy will give you a new block every 3rd time vs non-dodgy guys (55% pow, 11% bothdown), and about every 2nd block vs blodgy guys (11/36 pow, 8/36 both down, 17/36 push).

Tackle. The #1 problem facing ogres is the lack of ability to POW dodgy things.
