the one delusional posted isnt the correct one, that was what he thought they should be

these are the offical new players -
Fling catcher 0-2: 5/2/3/6 catch/right stuff/dodge/ sprint/ stunty for 50k A
Fling hefty 0-2: 5/2/3/7 statline with dodge /fend/ stunty for 50k AP


Hmm, let me know what I got wrong above and I will correct. I did try to quote your first two lines. Where I said my catcher was meant to be my idea, not GW. Seriously what's the point of a catcher which appears to be a new halfling with 2x skills.

I am curious what "statline" is?

I don't know, I would have thought that Fling coaches would jump on anything with AV7 in their team.

Well, in my opinion the point is improving slightly the 1TTD attempt (Catch to re-roll the hand off catch and Sprint for more range).
Since you can nominate the MVP on a Catcher you can hope to roll +MA/+AG and build a 1TTD specialist/ball carrier because he starts with 2 useful skills for that role (Catch can be used on High Kick event).
That said, I would have designed him with either MA 6 and AG 3 (and Catch) or MA 5 and AG 4 (removing Catch if needed to keep him cheap).
MA and AG are the key, skills like Catch, Sure Feet and Sprint can be taken later because are regular, while +MA/+AG require some lucky skill up rolls.

The problem with the +Ag is that he becomes better at everything, and other options other than the 1TTD also become bette, and you would just do those instead.

Two ag4 guys would be great on flings. You don't have to take them. Just as you don't have to take the trees.

flings love +Ag - https://fumbbl.com/p/team?team_id=735585 Very Happy

It will be slightly harder to achieve now with the catchers, just need to sack them after 1 skill every time until they get+Ag

nope, the new spike isnt out yet, if I was to guess I would imagine in the next 2 to 3 weeks. But thats a total guess. The pre order emails go out on saturday or sunday, so once we get sent them then it should be a week away.
