Spike 2010 Human Roster

[wedge22]

This is the roster I am most likely to use for this years Spike as I am trying to improve upon my 5th position from last year and the other rosters are with more difficult teams and ones I have no experience with.

Spike Rules
SKILL PURCHASES
You may spend some of your 1,100,000 GC on upgrades for your players. The costs for these upgrades are based on the TV cost increase for a player who has earned a skill from experience; that is, 20k for normal skills and 30k for doubles, +1 MA & +1 AV. You may NOT add Agility or Strength to any player. You also may not add more than one upgrade per player, and no more than 2 players may be given the same upgrade. For instance, you could add "Block" to no more than 2 players on your team. "STAR PLAYERS" cannot be improved in this manner. The GC values assigned to these upgrades corresponds to the Value Modifiers Table in the Competition Rules, and depends on the skills available to the player scheduled for improvement.

Value Modifiers Table (from LRB 6.0, and Competition rules, p 27)
+20K New Skill
+30K Skill that can only be taken on a double
+30K +1 MA or +1 MA


1xThrower Leader
2xCatchers
4xBlitzers 2 Guard, 1 Tackle, 1 Frenzy
4xLineman 2 Block, 2 Wrestle
3 Rerolls

[Grumbledook]

why would you give block to 2 linemen instead of your catchers

I would drop either tackle or frenzy for a third guard though

you also only have 11 players

3 rerolls should be enough leader isn't really needed, i'd either drop that and the 2 wrestle linos and get an apoth

or keep leader and swap a reroll for an apoth

[wedge22]

I gave Block to the Lineman so that every player on the team has a key skill.

The Spike rules indicate that you cannot give the same skill more than twice to any players on your team so no 3rd Guard.

Leader could be dropped for a the Apoth, its a rez style tourney so I am not sure though.

[SierraKiloBravo]

I'd go with your choice of players, but put Guard on two blitzers, Tackle on the other two blitzers, Block on both catchers, Wrestle on two lineman and Leader on the thrower.
