They removed Wildly Inaccurate, but they couldn't remove Wildly Speculating.  |

dark elves are already out, they aren't changing any time soon |
I never said when |

Rumours so far are
2x Dragon Princes with Blodge My Ball
2X Lion Warriors with Wrestle Claw |
Thanks for sharing this.
Throwers and linemen would be the same as in last Team of Legend PDF ? |

Well, we just don't know. I suspect the Phoenix Warrior Thrower types will have something special, because so far we've only seen recycled mechanics and they like to throw in a curve with new boxes. I'm guessing it's a unique passing thing, like they can Pass on a Move, or they don't fumble on a modified 1, or their inaccurate passes use the Throw-In template, or they scatter less, or something like that. |

A PA 1+, Accurate, Cannoneer, Running/Safe Pass Thrower with 'precission' (once per game use throw in instead of scatter template) would cost a fortune. Considering that HMP and Cloud Burster also feel fluffy it would be a Star Player in its own and would break the possible team builds, I guess... But yeah that Kind of player IS exactly what I want to see.  |

I would be happy with a PA 1+ Thrower, with no other skills to contain his cost.
Hail Mary Pass and Cloud Burster may be fluffy, but not worth their TV. |

Safe pass etc already make High Elf throwers the best throwers. Even if it is a subtle difference. |

Safe Pass is not as useful as sheer PA 1+.
While you can often avoid to be intercepted, you can't reduce the passing range. |

Safe Pass already exists, so it's clearly not the piece de resistance. |

If you remove cost from the equation, then yes you're right... I preferred Pro elf coz they're cheaper and realistically how often do you throw anything but a 2+ when passing. High elf throwers are grossly over costed currently |

Isn't the answer kind of in your set-up there?
If you rarely use a thrower to do anything but throw 2+ passes, then of course high elf throwers will be grossly overcosted, won't they?
But then again if you buy a black orc and refuse to ever block with it, that's also going to be grossly overcosted. Expensive passers are presumably there to play the passing game. If you don't want to play that game, that's fine, but then why would you buy an expensive passer in order to not use their abilities? |

yeah, the answer is in the set up, but why would you ever try anything but a 2+ pass with a high elf thrower too, other than an emergency? there's just no point, developing throwers is sub optimal player development in this edition and will be in 2025 too. High Elf throwers just cost too much. TV is too important to keep down. If the high Elf thrower was 80k then they could be considered the best. But 100k is crazy. you're paying 30k for something you might do once a game |

Some do think team is complete with dedicated legend oneturner and passer. No need to play game, just throw ball and dice 2 turns in a game ;p |
