Lizards love re-rolls as they don't have block but I'd still go for the Krox + 6 Saurii + 4 skinks and build from there. As you earn £££ buy re-rolls and skill up your Saurus with block asap. |

The kick-off table has been greatly nerfed, and fan factor no longer affects the "Cheering Fans" or "Brilliant Coaching" result, while the new "Officious Ref" and "Pitch Invasion" are far milder than previous. |
Not really looked at it in detail to find the sweet spot. If you did the max 50k for +5 = 6 DF then even if you lost every game and it went down your extra winners wound be 25k,20,15k which means at the end of the third game you are ahead.
30k for +3 DF is the break even where you can never come out behind. Even if it reduces every game you still get 15,10,5 = 30k back. A single draw or win in your first three games and you end up ahead.
If you only purchased +1 DF you get an extra 5k but have a 1/6 chance of losing it and thus having lost out on the investment. |

Definitely take 6 Saurii and the Krox to start! Yes you must be wary of the lack of block skill and rerolls, but that strength will really cause opposition problems. |

6 Saurus to start for me too, I would add a Chameleon 4 skinks & 2 rr. You will get 1 free dedicated fan in 2020 & its probably worth buying 1 more at least.
That said until we start playing 2020 rules who can say for sure? |

You can do the statistical analysis for Dedicated Fans but not sure if you were meaning that or staring with a Krox vs second re-roll?
I think I would take the second TRR but I can see the Magnificent Seven being a good build as well if you are prepared to eat a few bad blocks during the game. |

Just thinking about the overall team selection. |
