A few questions:
1) When i walk y player past a tents-player of mine and a shadowing player is following my player, can he get trapped in the tents?
2) Can a shadowing player be shadowed?
3) A pass blocking player can get trapped in tents or diving tackled? |

1. I think so, but not 100%.
2. Yes. This is why shadowing is roll based It used to be automatic, but that could theoretically break the game, creating endless loop of shadowing players (all of them moving in a circle moving around, triggering each other).
3. Yes. |

1) The Tentacles skill works when an opponent player attempts to dodge or leap out of any of the Tentacles player's tackle zones, and the Shadowing move is not a Dodge nor a Leap, therefore the Shadowing player is not stopped by Tentacles when he's Shadow-moving during opponent's turn. |

I think you can't shadow a shadower as the shadower is not taking an action. |

1) No. Shadowing isn't a dodge or leap so Tents won't activate.
2) Yes. Shadowing activates whenever a player leaves their TZ for any reason. Haven't actually tried this in the client though. You can shadow a follow up move from a block
3) Yes. |

Also pass blocker getting trapped in tentacles used to break the game, not sure if its been fixed yet. |

"Shadowing: The player may use this skill when a player performing an Action on the opposing team moves out of any of his tackle zones for any reason.[...]"
Since Shadowing is not an Action, but a free follow-move granted by the Shadowing skill, a Shadowing player perfoming a Shadowing move can't be followed by opponent Shadowing players. |

Thanks.
If the client considers the free Shadow-move like a Move Action then you can Shadow the Shadowing player, but technically a Shadowing move is not a Move action. |

It's definitely not - occurs in opponent's turn and can only declare actions in your own turn AFAIK. Also says "...he does not have to make any Dodge rolls when he makes this move..."
move, not Move action |
