Grundo from The Pirate of Bogwash just got his third skill and it is 5+5.
He already has block. I am leaning towards pro for its usefulness every turn but do you guys think I should take a stat/another double?
I know there are lots of coaches who are way better than me so I would very much appreciate any advice you have. |

It's a box goblin team if that makes a difference to people's suggestions.
I think you've got 3 options:
1. Grundo the Killer - tackle and then piling on at 51spp.
2. Grundo the Reliable - pro.
3. Grundo the Cagebreaker - dodge and then break tackle at 51spp.
Personally I'd not use the killer build, as I think you can build your other troll as that and 2 doubles is not to be sniffed at. Also as you're a goblin team you're never gonna win the attrition war
As he's still got 3 skill rolls coming, there's a 50% chance he'll get a third double (assuming he lives). So I think dodge now, then break tackle and stand firm or jugger.
Speaking from experience, nobody likes playing against a blodge troll, regardless of road block or cage threat. |

Pro is an easy choice. Great for TTM as well. |

Dodge
Then needs stand firm.
You'll have an incredibly annoying road block.
Finish with break tackle and grab, you'll never be sorry. |

Dodge then BT / SF, makes a very capable all round player. Most important thing for gobbos is a troll that is always in the right place protecting his buddies so survivability and maneouverability are critical and Dodge fits both those roles.
If he already had Dodge then I might prefer +Ma ahead of SF. |

I have to agree with Dodge. A blodging troll is a stout troll. Considering they are your most valuable players out of the box, survival is paramount. |

Dodge over Pro. It's good now. It gets better with more skills. There are just so many reasons to go with dodge. |

Sidestep would be great fun but I decided to go with dodge.
I figured best if he lives to get more skills and nice synergy with break tackle later on.
Thanks for all your help everyone. |

Sidestep for big guys? Not even once. Seriously.
Stand firm isn't quite as good as sidestep but it is similar amongst these st5 guys. And you get it on a normal roll. There is just too much option on doubles. (Pro, Dodge, tackle, diving tackle) Never take sidestep. |
