dauntless does more than make thme a blitzter

you can use it for blocks in a ruck, or from off the LOS when they kick to hit someone stronger

dauntless on every gutter runner in my book

though i play without a rat ogre

Don't forget passblock on that last guy.

Also, as far as the "stunty killer", remember that it is really dirt easy to get assists with all those GRs running around and suddenly he's not just for stunties.

Any reason no one has pointed out that with long legs and sprint they get 1 turn TD's??

Eerm, long legs..

On the whole, Long Legs, Sprint, Sure Feet, Block, Side Step, Dump Off and an extra STR if you can...

Don't be afraid to specialise and have at least one GR that is a TD machine.

Look out for the vault rules, though! When they get implemented, it said that horns does not stack with other strength skills, such as dauntless. So the whole concept for uber-gutter-blitzer will get nerfed!

On a related note, my gutter rolled doubles on his first two skills, netting me a horned/dauntless gutter after only 4 games with the team. Smile Trick is, he's almost killed himself multiple times for lack of block, and the opposition has really taken to smacking on him with their blockers.

Question in advance of his next skill--obviously if it's a normal skill I take block, but what about if it's yet another double? From 31 to 51 spp can be a long time to live w/o block, but do you really dismiss a double that easily? What should I take if it comes to that--claw/rsc for added hitting power after I (hopefully) knock down my target? Frenzy seems really iffy w/o block to help. VLL, followed by sprint? Make him a OTS, who instead of dodging around potential tacklers simply charges INTO them, blasting open his own hole?

Develop another GR for one turning , Id keep this guy for getting the ball of their team , maybe make him AV8 , or jump up to keep him mobile or guard for a handy support player , moving 9 and lending a guard could be useful in a lot of situations

Foul Appearance or Frenzy.

Frenzy for me, especially with this client.

I'd say give him block anyway, it's never good to waste a double but he'll probably be heavily targeted, and it is a long way to survive to the next skill
