4 Blitzers
1 Witch
6 Lines
3 RR
20k left for whatever

And skills would be:
Block on the Witch
6 Guard on the Linemen
1 Skill (Dodge, Strip Ball, Leap or something similar)

Problem with only 3 Guard is that with so easy Guard access it might be that I'm behind in Guard and I don't want to face High Elves with 6 Guards or so.
6 guards is too much. I'd take 3 max. Block is more important after that. Elf vs elf probably won't see so many scrums. If you are doing that the high elf lack of block (only 2 blitzers!) will bite him hard.
Too bad you can't take MB on a blitzer.

Witch: Wrestle
1 Blitzer: Dodge
3 linemen: Guard
1 lineman: Leader
1 linemen: Block, Mighty Blow

The goal is obviously to outblock your opponent and go for 2-1 caging wins. Strip ball needs to die, the witch should be able to take him down. Opponents will be sporting 11 man squads so mighty blow will make a huge impact: every time you don't need to blitz a blodger, blitz with the MB lineman on the softest target.

That's a very good setup. With only 5 skilled Linemen, would you use the 20k to upgrade one Lineman to an Assassin?

Yep. Seems like a good idea.

Strange tournament.

I'd use that lineup, but replace the last lineman's block with piling on. There will be plenty of dodge-free targets for you to hit and getting that 58%+ KO will really hurt the pro-/wood-elf players. They are unlikely to sport more than 12 players, too.
