Personally I'd bin the troll and have a third lino. Not sure what I'd spend the leftovers on though, 3 RR is plenty.

I would take 3 rr, 1 Troll, 4 Bobs, 4 Blitzers, 2 Linos, and one Gobbo (1070 TV). I don't like the Orc Throwers (I'd rather give SH to a Blitzer), and Gobbos are so much fun... They're pretty good on the los against block-less rookie teams, they can dodge anywhere, and they foul hard.

I don't like the troll, and don't like the thrower. But the thrower is not bad at rookie resurrection. Do you need answer as a rookie team in resurrection type league, or for a division like bbox with skills, too?

But I tell you, that for a rookie orc team, 4 reroll is not overkill. You will not need the 4th later on, thus I would not buy it in bbox, etc, but it is golden at the beginning.

All about the gobbos on a new orc team, so cheap to replace as well. I started a team as a 0 lino and 0 thrower team. you can have a 'full' 13 player squad with troll, 4xBOB, 4xblitzers, 4xgobbos. It's great fun...

in this lineup ALL players have either 4ST+ or MA6, none of this ST3,MA5 nonsense...

Yup I have 2 similar teams as well. Not better than a regular team for sure, but super fun, and it offers a little challenge with a normally straightforward cookie cutter team.

As for the Troll and a Gobbo (or more!) in a more conventional roster, in environments where matches are based on TV (Box and Ranked), I generally wait to reach that point where TV doesn't matter much anymore since every possible opponent has a developed team (around 1700 TV) to buy them. In leagues or rookie tournaments, I buy them asap.

Looks like a solid lineup Bass. Reserve, s5, 4 S4, 4 block, sure hands, a couple of linos, already enough rrs. All good. Though it does mean you have to put a non lino on the LOS. Kam's option could be more fun though no sure hands could be costly initially. More of an issue in a short league.

I didn't like throwers either but I have to admit it is good to have a fourth blitzer in the fray.

4 rerolls is a great idea, you want to be throwing as many blocks as you can, especially with the bobs
