Hello folks, asking advices again! Today Jig James rolled a double six, what am I supposed to give him? He is a great player and usually picks the ball for handover and the One Turn Score of Fiddler's Geen Phil, they are great when fielded together. Anyway, lately James started to score TD of his own, especially due to Leap, he is really good.
So what am I going to give him? I am undecided between block or +ST, but I could consider other options. Tell me what you think, I'll open the poll! |

+ str even with block so many guys are going to get 3db on him when he has str 1 that changes a lot with str 2 as its much harder to get more than double his str then. |

You can't have a 3ST legend Pixie without taking +ST at super star.  |

Speaking from an opponent's perspective–– I'd much rather face a St2 Blockless Pixie than a St1 Block pixie.
Block makes him an unappealing blitz target, especially for teams that don't have easy access to General skills (e.g. Squigs, Eshin, or Halflings) because these teams may have a blocker or two, but are unlikely to have Tackle. This will mean that he might live long enough to grab that +ST at Legend.
Looking at it the other way–– 50k of +ST (not to mention 40K of +AG) wrapped up in an Av6 package is a sweet, sweet morsel to bite into! If you take +ST now, imagine how many more rookie Gnomes and Squigs (and assorted big guys) will be willing to take Both Down against him even if it means a turnover.
With Av6, this guy is too valuable–– both in TV and in functionality–– to be lacking a basic defensive skill. |

While cameron is right in terms of optimal, your decision is right in terms of cool/fun etc. Legend skill: tackle! |

I would say see my avatar and read my signature but I just realize you are talking about a pixie...what ever that is...
I mistakenly thought this was about Blood Bowl.  |

It sort of is about Blood Bowl, but you have to go back quite a few years and rule sets to when the game was crazy and fun. Remember those days? |

I don't know what treeboy means, but if he's supporting me, I'll go with it, I guess.... |
