First Legend - Slann Blitzer (R)
So after 52 games the Quarter Back Blitzer Governor of the Falafel Spacers has achieved legendhood by mostly throwing the ball to fellow teammates in order for the them to take the brutal takedowns offered by our opponents.
Needless to say he rolled an 11 for his final skill but Nuffle will not allow such an agile frog to exist while claiming to be a blitzer. So the real question is, what skill should be taken for this player? Given he is predominately a sweeper and I struggle most to win against elf teams I am tempted to take 'Tackle'. Though for longevity purposes perhaps sidestep or fend would be better options (making him into main ball carrier and TD scorer for team). Was hoping to roll a double to give him 'Pass' for fluff purposes but it was not to be.
I welcome any advice on the matter as I hope to eventually play this team in some tournaments...though they are a bit of a one man show at the moment! Happy I managed to get a player to legend though, and with my favorite race too. Hopefully I can join the ranks of the more prestigious players of the community and get a Slann Catcher up there too. Though with my play style that is not very likely....

Nice job! Salsa used to be the top Slann blitzer for passing and passing yards, but Governor has shattered his records there! Ag 5 is mighty fun. :D

Salsa was my inspiration for sure! AG5 is definitely fun to mess around with and completely changed my play style with these guys...maybe not for the better :P but definite enjoyment of the antics!

Lovely player. Sidestep will make him a huge asset on defense as well (and if you use him optimally, it will drastically reduce his lifespan). Frenzy could be fun, tackle would be sensible. So would fend.

Has to be pass block. Ag5 and VLL combine for juicy interception rolls, while leap lets him get to pretty much any legal square.
I know it isn't the best skill in the house, but it would be very fitting for him.

Thanks all for advice and gratz. Will sleep on it and see what a fresh mind will bring to the table about his best future in the team. See you on the fields soon!

For what it's worth, I would take SS on him. Other things are tempting, but SS you are going to use on offense, defense and it's going to help keep him alive (both from reducing blocks/fouls taken and from not getting surfed after failed pickups). Other options make him more specialized and open up awesome doors (pass block, he can mark someone and STILL get a 4+ int roll, strip ball, etc.) but I like to go more general on the player you are going to have out there every drive and who would be the clutch player left on the pitch in OT.

Congratz! Rated 5, because I'm slightly disappointed. I saw (R) there, and I figured your post was gonna be inappropriate for children. Y U GET MY HOPES UP? That's [expletive]… jk rated 6.

Grats! How appropriate your first legend being Slann :)
