My boy Pantheon has now survived 45+ games with -AV,-AV,n,n and the team's form over that stretch has been much better than before it, with the black orc often inflicting substantial damage and scoring too.
His injuries often make him a target, which seems to deviate coaches from their plans. A tactical choice of when to send him into harm's way can forge an opening.
Of course, he has missed a number of matches since becoming so fragile. Still, I do wonder when will he finally meet his demise...
Any other damaged goods out there that went on to out perform expectations? |

Pantheon is a hero. I've targeted him in 3 different matches, and he's withstood it all (either not going down, or not getting his AV7 broken).
Mayne II was quite succesful with 1 niggle, but never got to play with 2. I would have liked to keep him (and sponge him), but against that blodge sure hands bull, the wiz was better. |

Oh noooo....he beat Canorc on the top lists. Someone...kill him!
On topic both Canorc (before he died) and Orchoo! have been playing quite a while with -av. |

I'll also hat tip Deuces, who has spent most of his 201 match career with minimal agility (-AG,-AG), but for a fouler it is hardly an issue. He's probably been on the LoS for more matches than not - what a survivor! |

Keith Marks took a niggling and kept on tickin back in his day.
eventually retired during a tournament where the handicaps would have been too much for his TR. |

Jade picked up 2 -avs, and went through about 40 games before he eventually succumbed. |

Legjenda e Dhimbshme in the box has had a niggle for over 50 games, and has had a -MA for quite a few.
He still kills and scores just fine. |

David Weir is the oldest active Nurgle Warrior in League division, and has become a real target since his second -av around this time last year (24 matches ago). Having just recently passed 100 games he's old-school in every way -- possibly the only Nurgle Warrior without Claw |

reading this, I'm now slightly sad I retired Hyper Speed the game after he got to legend. He did make it 71 games tho, and had the -1 ST pretty early. (all told: -av, -ma, -st, n, -av, -ma, -ma)
He made a great distraction drawing 'fire' away from other GR's though |

Nobody mentioned Maccio Capaquadrata. This poor slave is approaching 100 games (98 and counting) and shows no signs of retiring from his life of slavery. |
