Orcs TV 110

Looking at an Orcs roster for a resurrection tourney, TV 110, 4 skills to start (one can be a double):

4 BOB
4 Blitzer
1 Troll
1 Thrower
2 Linemen
3 RR

Basic stuff really, and I'm pretty much decided on skills #1-#3 as well:
  • Troll - Block
    BOB - Guard
    BOB - Guard
Can't make up my mind for the 4th skill though. Here are the options in the current order of preference:
Blitzer - Frenzy OR
BOB - Block OR
Blitzer - Stand Firm OR
Blitzer - MB OR
BOB - Guard

I think I like Frenzy for the crowd-surfing threat and it helps taking down Blodgers/Dodgers (rather than risking a dead skill by taking Tackle). All the other options would be nice as well, and I haven't played Orcs enough to rate the fine nuances between these.

Any help is appreciated!

I wouldn't give Block to the Troll, as there are many situations where you don't want to activate him because of "Really Stupid".

I'd give Guard to a BO (bashing matchups), Block to a BO (safe first block), Guard to a Blitzer (fast enough to move along with the cage) and Dodge to a Blitzer (ball carrier when not playing vs Strip Ball). If you expect a lot of Strip Ball teams, you may want to consider Block on your Thrower.

Good luck 8)

I agree with your team selection and 1st 3 skills. 4th skill I'd take Tackle on a Blitzer.

I would be pretty comfortable with the team selection, although i have recently been converted to using an apothecary, so would probably take that instead of the 2nd lineman.

And would go for tackle or frenzy as the final skill.
