Poil posted:Can you combine leap with blitz to attempt to land on top of another player? Dunno if they fixed it in BB2 but in LE or CE leaping blitzes were broken in a lot of really weird ways that could lead to you not punching, not leaping, not using your blitz but still getting to punch and general weirdness.

 Game 11 - Half 1 - Undead Vs. Manuel Calavera This game ended up being almost 2 hours long so I went and cut it up into halves and I'm uploading this one earlier in the week to give you lot time to chew through it. Also for some reason I lost the game audio so it has been replaced with spoopy music befitting the season.

On the bright side, the first half has probably the best highlight. And by no means is there anything interesting happening in half 2 except for more ball handling. Maybe, probably. e - and yes, that was an The Offspring quote. I was indeed drinking, I'd made the commitment to do so. e2 - eagle eyed folk may notice two Max's, I goofed on naming was what happened. If Max the Mummy dies somehow, he'll come back as Sammun-Mak.

Yeah, I think the second half is a little shorter. You mentioned it either in game about getting a little frustrated, or it was relayed to me via voice, Agent. And I tried on that Chain push! I just, clicked badly. Like an idiot, a slightly drunk one.

I really really liked that chain push agent355 did in that first half. Does grab make chain pushing any easier? Was grab a joke vote? or will our 3rd or 4th lvl3 saurus end up with it?

Grab and chainpush go hand in hand. Grab on a fanatic to make your odds of killing better. Grab on guys to shuffle pieces into better spots. Agent had a team themed around grab.

Grab is a legit good skill that lets you do things like pull a guy backwards so you can punch him again next turn without following up. Or toss him sideways into another punch. Or leave him next to the krox so they cant dodge out. Guard won because while its boring as poo poo, hording all the 2dbs to yourself is super good, not because grab is a joke.

Aye guard becomes a necessity on most teams after a few games. Maintaining 2DBs is import as heck.

Grab is real good but it actually doesn't chainpush anymore than normal punching, but it's still real fukkin good.

Grab let's you do really unfair things like sucking an enemy lineman behind your line to setup ottds that would normally be impossible.

It's basically the punching equivalent of sidestep in that it lets you set up blatantly unfair positional games. My grab gimmick team functions hilariously well but they have to be like 1500-1600 before you have enough grab/block to actually make it work, and by that time you're running into teams with piles of guard and murder players and they tend to kinda fall apart. They make loving mincemeat of less bashy teams though, hilariously so.

I hate them so much.

I can probably manage that, just need an opponent with a team that allows me to actually show off the gimmick.

If a player with Grab pushes a player with Side Step, which skill wins?

They cancel out and you normal push. On a blitz you can only normal push even with grab but a grab player blitzing a sidestepper still cancels sidestep.

The lore for that being, I assume. "A regular block, you can think about what you're doing. But a blitz is like a wild orc, you just wanna punch a dude." e - Thanks Prav. My inebriated, new coach brain was thinking at the time "Big guy dangerous and stronger than my mummies. Keep him on the ground." Which, having played with a Krox myself now, and understanding Bonehead more. Makes him slightly less dangerous. Mercedes Colomar fucked around with this message at 04:34 on Oct 26, 2017 |

A superstar like him don't really want to be on the whole "in easy punch range" deal. The multitude of lesser skinks can handle that role. Don't worry about him living too long hes already got a big bullseye on his back. I would suggest Catch as the skill choice because if the ball is not in his hands our next goal should be placing the ball in his hands ASAP. Seriously though +AG, +MV blodge skink? It's obscene, let's crank this obscenity to the max.

Shadowing is a general skill, so while it would be fantastically obnoxious on him he can't use it yet. While I'm tempted to go with some combination of Sprint / Sure Feet for maximum bullshittery, Sidestep would also be a very solid choice on him. EDIT: Catch doesn't really help on Fleetfoot because we have nobody to pass the ball to him and nobody that could even sanely develop into a thrower.

Fleetfoot gets Sure Feet so that when he inevitably dies to a snaked GFI, it doesn't eat a team reroll. And so he can go further with more confidence, that too.

FoolyCharged posted:Catch is actually deceptively good on lizards because it works on hand offs. This is true, but if it ever comes to that Fleetfoot is more likely to be the one making the handoff than receiving it. He's far and away the best player on the team at picking up and carrying the ball, and he's such a valuable target that you don't want to expose him by running him down the field as a receiver. Even then I'm not sure it's likely to come up, because there aren't that many plays involving Agi 3 shenanigans that are safer than just having Fleetfoot bullshit his way through a team from midfield. I'm still torn between making his a disgusting speed machine with Sprint/Sure Feet or just making him a more generic rear end in a top hat with Sidestep.

Even then I'm not sure it's likely to come up, because there aren't that many plays involving Agi 3 shenanigans that are safer than just having Fleetfoot bullshit his way through a team from midfield. The idea would be to have an agi 3 pick up when it's safe and stand in the backfield, dash 8-10 spaces up to Fleetwood next turn, who then immediately dashes 9-11 spaces for a total ball movement of 18-22 out of 26 spaces on the board in a single turn. Thats a lot of ball movement and its better to drop the ball in the backfield where you get another go than in the middle of the pitch next to the other team, so you want your 4agi skink getting the hand off and the 3 agi picking up. Unless you're attached to your pieces and more concerned with keeping the god skunk alive than scoring anyways.

I'll point out when Agent says it's rude to gang foul once you're oppoent is down an Appo, he is talking about friendly Goonleague games. If you're in Goonbowl or a tourney you fuckin' stomp his players into the ground and hope it gives you that extra TD chances.
