Most annoying skill?

Okay here's one: what's the most annoying skill that an opponent can use against you (besides anything to do with an OTS)?

Just wondering, because I find that skills which have substantial nuisance factor (i.e. shadowing, tackles) seem to great for making my opponents get more nervous and over-cautious throughout a match. I fend that blitzers and runners designed to bother a coach into making a mistake are quite possibly the only way I've been able to make my non-bashy teams survive on defence.

depends what race, obviously, but leap and strip ball is a classic.

side step always annoys opponents. It gets my vote.

Basically anything that works passively, side step came in the mind first so gets my vote.

Tentacles on the Beast of Nurgle. Pain in the be-hind.

In PBem, Pass Block is a right bugger, as it means you have to save the file mid turn and send it to your opponent.

Side Step for me as well. I can't wait to try-out the LRB5 Ogre team.

Not in the MBBL at least, as it is automated (you can pick ahead of time if you want, but if you don't tough luck)...

But I agree, Sidestep is my #1 most annoying skill...over and above OTS guys--them I can handle--it's fun to see it happen and fun to stop (well, get lucky and it fails).

The skill that my opponents find most annoying has always been GUARD......

Dwarves! don't leave home without it!....

Nah, Guard is ok - if you plan your blocks out in advance (as u should)
