That you also see it on elf throwers is just silly though, but hey, that you see elf throwers in the first place is silly Smile


What's wrong with a high elf thrower? He comes with safe throw, making interceptions - the big weakness of passing - very unlikely! Playing high elfs without a thrower seems to me like not capitalizing on your team's strength...

Ahh, you land on the one elf thrower I don't hate. Take your high elf thrower for that team, skip them on all other elf teams.

At least the Pro Elf thrower is only 10k more than the lineman, so you are getting a skill and access to a set of skills for a discount. The wood elf thrower doesn't seem like it's worth the money as it is priced the same as a catcher. Most of the time I'd rather have the catcher.

All elf throwers have this issue that they need block, dodge, sure hands and maybe even accurate and strong arm/side step/fend before leader becomes even remotely viable skill choice.

Kick is relevant to all elf teams. You see this often.

Kick-off return is not relevant as MA6 and ag4 usually doesn't result in issues with reaching the ball.

I've started taking a liking to even fielding two throwers on my pro-elfs. If my team manages to steal the ball it's handy to have a skill reroll ready to get the ball to safety. Other than that, they're just linemen.

(I did skill one as a thrower though; incredibly overpriced by now, but I find it has it's uses for saving rerolls and trying oneturn scores).
