Block for the Saurus because Wrestle Saurs are tragedy bad instead of comedy bad.

Guard for Lincon over MB or BT - we already have two Blitzer builds who would be better at leveraging those skills, and we're about to be pushing 1500 TV with 0 strength amplifiers.

You need to not think of Starance as a Saurus with Wrestle. You need to look to the future, and start thinking of him as a Saurus with wrestle and strip ball and break tackle (and Jump Up if he gets doubles). This is about having a giant blue ball-seeking missile. This is about making Agent ram a dinosaur into cages and throwing -2dbs because 5-out-of-6 that ball is touching the ground. And then our unstoppable rat-skink grabs that ball from anywhere because tackle zones mean nothing. This is about watching exciting bullshit plays.

Vote for Fun. Vote for Hope. Vote for the Future. Vote for the King of Skills

Also Guard I guess.

There has literally been a single vote for both of those skills combined. The cool kids are voting he grabs people and tosses them into the krox and other fun shenanigans.

Welp... I actually anticipated a lot more people to jump on the wrestle train when I made that vote and mainly picked block to be contrarian. I actually think that having a single wrestlesaur for getting the ball free is a good idea so I'm changing my vote to wrestle (edited my previous post as well). The vote for guard stands.

We're at the team value where the guard arms race starts, but Agent is good and I'm sure he can make it work even if he's behind on guard.

at this TV enemy teams are going to have so much block, we need a block counterer. With AV9 wrestle's increased chance of fouling won't be important!



Also Thanks for including a couple minutes during the setup/start of the game to review the enemy team (both wood elves and gag's specific weird skill picks), I think it really helped me. Not sure if you did this because of my nagging, but either way I want to apologize for the nagging.

Block and Grab.

We're basically always going to have the strength advantage, so something that can counter side-step and help set up subsequent blocks seems at least as useful as guard.

Is wrestle actually better on skinks than saurus? or does this team usually just have 0 wrestle? Wouldn't a skink with wrestle basically never use it because fleetfoot is too good a blitzer? Or is it possible to build a wrestle strip ball skink to run into danger and die? Leaving fleetfoot purely for pickups and scores? I guess I could be persuaded to change my vote, and get on board. I just don't currently comprehend.

fleetfoot is a oneturner. hes never blitzting anything if he can help it. hes going to always be surrounded by mans because anyone sane will want to kill it at every opertunity since its a player that will cause the opponent to lose if it lives. saurs dont really care much for wrassle besides getting a ball carrier down. usually a skink can do this about as well and usually the preferred option since saurs usually want to stand not get put on the ground.

Wrestle and Strip Ball are both doubles on a skink. The odds are you will only ever get one double per player for the life of them (six skill ups, odds are 1/6 for dubs) so you really can't count on it. Wrestle is generally not used on lizards because you want your saurii punching every opportunity you can and skinks you want mobile.

Fleetfoot is really just a freak of nature.
