what do I choose for a Dark Elf Lino with Block who rolled 5+5 ?

THIS is the team

EDIT: damn, I forgot to put the obvious +MOV to the poll...

Guard. Definitely Guard.

DE don't get anyone with Strength skills innately and you've got 4 blitzers and 2 wes with MV7 so a MV7 lino isn't that special.

looks like you already made the right choice Wink

i made the mistake of choosing +ma a couple of times on my DE ... was definately wasted on a lino .. but was great on the blitzers / witches. DE can't get enough guard .. I thought that 3 was enough (it was at the time), and tried a few different things (dauntless/jump up) on later doubles ... but I was wrong, and now they're all dead/niggled Sad

Doubles on a blitzer/WE should be used to get at least one MB, though. DE need a bit of hitting power on their blitzes.

JumpUp on Blitzer is very nice.
Dauntless for a positional too.
Lino should have guard.

I kinda wonder why normal skills like pro and dodge are even in there and something as dauntless or +mv isn't. That said, I voted for guard.

Simple: I thought Dodge could be a choice for someone even if that meant wasting the double. Same goes for pro (after all, Pro is an all around useful skill).

Dauntless is an obvious mistake. Same goes for +mov. I wrote this post down in a hurry Very Happy

Anyway I choose guard.
Thanks all Smile

Yes I would go for the extra move. Imo DE's need as many M7 players as they can get, in order to avoid GFI's on a 2 turn TD.

guard all the way...

my recommendation is to get offline though, and plan out your team's development, and where u would like them to be after their first 2-3 skills... there is nothing worse than forgetting what u wanted, because u were clouded from the previous match...

having said that, think of skills in terms of combinations... guard/leap works a beauty, and u can add block/pro l8r...

No offense, but a lino you really can't expect to live long enough to add a third/fourth skill. Positionals you EXPECT 4 skills out of them, but linos have a short life expectancy on the LOS and so I never plan more than two skills out for them. Unless you plan on keeping the lino off the LOS, possibly to the point of putting a less-skilled blitzer on the line instead...

Never enough guard on an elven team (or any team actually, but it's hardest to get it for elves)
