howdy all, the followers have stepped back on to the pitch, and a tea management question has been brought up.
do i keep tweek - an ag4, block, sidestep, leap catcher, who is one td from superstar. he is also suffering from a broken collarbone (-1st).
the original plan with him was to keep him and use as a one turner, but i am now in the position of only 10 players and low funds, so tweek will have to start the next few games.
worth it, or liability? he is 120k extra over a linesmen (or merc) if that influences your decision |

If you hand that guy the ball, he would be able to do some crazy moves that no other player would, and win some games for you. My gut reaction is: keep. |

Timmy! \o/
I've been finding lately that carrying a few injuries isn't the end of the world, especially when playing an older team in a time zone with lower box traffic. Tight TV management isn't as necessary when you might cut him and end up playing up 250k anyway.
Essentially the question is he worth a wizard? At the moment I'd tend towards yes, as he is the only other viable clean up guy after Big Al pops a ball loose. He also grants a decent OTTD option as you'd already noted. I think that's worth 170k.
The other thing he'll do is attract attention. People love to beat up on gimps. If they target Tweek that might keep some other guy from getting crippled while you build up other players.
Also +Ag at superstar skill level. |

good points raised. i think i will keep him for now, as he does bring a lot to the team. next question is what to take at superstar? +ag or +ma would be awesome, but a normal roll i think it is between sure feet, sure hands, sprint, and diving tackle.
will be the 1st catcher superstar on the followers if he can snag one more td  |

dauntless? otherwise taking sure feet then sprint was nice for the Cobras resident catcher |

Well the Autarchs have kicked off their season/ sprint
Matched a rookie Chaos Team Block for Block (40 each) and scored a Kill on a Chaos Warrior. Apothed an SI on a Lineman and otherwise was lucky to just take BHs.
Here's to more Humans in Box |

Close run in the end - which is fairly surprising given how destructive he'd been in the early game. I might have gone a bribe instead of the extra apothecary - but then again, I'm loving the fouling game at the moment.
Rerolling the push and going hard for a turn 1 foul didn't work out for you this time. Against a team like that waiting for him to hit the ground might be a better option. |

True, I got a bit feisty at the start of the game thinking that if I could get his numbers down to 9-10 I'd be in prime position. Well, almost got there thanks to the weak link hobgoblins as always.
I really wish I had used the wizard better, but disguising a boom-boom-knockdown play that you hope to convert to a TD is hard.
To be quite honest, humans are developing to be one of my favorite teams. You got a little bit of everything going on and yeah, the availability of boots is enthralling. |
