Sure hands. You need the extra reroll, and it helps with pesky elves and the like that have Strip ball. If they don't have Sb you can let the Block AG3 ogre take the ball.
Nice team! |

your kidding, right? block. Str 5 block is a huge amount harder to take down then w/o block, they have about a 25% chance of taking you down on a -2d, and only a 30%ish chance of dropping themselves. pass isnt a bad choice... but block helps for 16 turns while pass will likely only help on turn 8 or turn 16. |

Heh....
Only about 25% on -2d? Not exactly? Sorry, I'm being annoying 
-2d with Strip ball against Block let's them take the ball from you 4/9 times, which is more than 1/4. There is another ogre with ag3 and block already. On top of that, with 3 rerolls this team really needs reroll skills.
I say pass is blah, score by walking into the end zone, not by getting lucky with throws. |

not talking about losing the ball, i was talking about the ogre actually going down. and generally aside from elves strip ball isn't a hugely popular skill, so block is going to come in handy for hanging onto the ball more then strip ball will. Really on just about any big guy, any double aside from 6/6 is automatically block for me. |

Perhaps you weren't talking about losing the ball, but you were asking if I was kidding (I think, the"your kidding" part could mean something else). And since the question was asked in a general way, I replied with what I saw as best for the team.
It is of course possible that you have more insight into the matter, having played ogres more than I have, but I gave the best advice I could, with no amount of kidding involved. I do feel pretty confident about my view on this matter though.
Of course Block is a great skill, I merely suggest that the team will win more games with SH. Some teams do have Strip Ball. |
