Jup= because of diving tackles and ST4 = you need that MA8 range for future blitzes

Posted by the_Sage on 2013-03-26 20:24:48

it depends. Do you use him to connect, do you use diving tackle a lot, do you expose him to blitzes? Then jump up makes sense.

Seeing as he's a box skink who lived to legend, I assume the answer is no. Then sprint is better. =D

Sprint, why you roll no doubble :( Block is what the little (big) fella needs.

I rolled doubles twice...
I have a Legend wolf with ag4 who has JU, I really love it. He can get back into the game fast.
Sprint will help put his TZ on throwers that is hanging back or making them hang back 1 square more. Also Sure feet goes well with Sprint.

Hard.

Sprint I think.

It's tricky between the two, but he shouldn't be getting hit. JU adds 3 MV in the case that he gets knocked over and not stunned (which is unlikely), whereas Sprint adds +1 MV all the time if you are desperate.

I figure it's the same as the next skill on a +AG ss/sure feet/dt skink, which for me, is sprint not JU.

Then again, if you dodge into the cage on a blitz and he falls over, then Jump Up forces them to move the entire cage (blitz a guard off the corner and 2d the center with JU). Neither will get much use I think.

Jump Up might get more used more often and has better synergy with ST4.
I also like sprint as he already has sure feet. Also he has the combo of SS/SF/Sprint making him your best alternative for an OTT. But other players on your team can get that combo sooner or later.

I'd probably go Jump Up.

So limited with Ag access only. Wrastle/Block woulda been real nice, depending on if he is your ball handler or not. Gotta be Jump Up.

Sprint, for the same reasons as Hito.

Well, it seems like a split vote.
Alittle towards Sprint.

I will go Sprint then

Posted by harvestmouse on 2013-03-26 23:14:55

Both are good options. I do like SF/Sprint combo. However the main reason not to take JU would be making him a foul target. I don't think you could make him much more of a foul target anyway so.................I think I'd have gone JU.

+1 to harvesmouse, Jump Up just invites fouls even more. Sprint is the way to go.

Posted by the_Sage on 2013-03-27 15:42:25

That's not what harvestmouse said Garion. His point was he'd be fouled no matter what, so what's normally a reason not to take JU is now gone.
