Gutter Runner skill choice? QUICK ADVICE NEEDED!

My team's playing tomorrow (wait, it's past 12 - make that today!), and I still need to skill up a Gutter Runner. :o

Right now, my team looks like this:
  • Thrower: Block
  • Blitzer: MB (MNG)
  • Blitzer: MB
  • Gutter Runner: Wrestle, -MA
  • Gutter Runner: +AG, Block, ???
  • Gutter Runner: Horns, Wrestle
  • Gutter Runner: +ST, Block
  • Lineman
  • Lineman: Kick
  • Lineman
  • Lineman (Journey)
  • Lineman (Journey)
As you can see, my +AG/Block GR needs a skill, but I can't seem to decide. Obvious choice: Side Step. Fun choice: Leap. Aggressive choice: Strip Ball.

I'm playing High Elfs. They have no Sure Hands. (After that; Nurgle. No Sure Hands, either.) All (useful) advice is appreciated! :D

Leap would make him unstoppable!! (except from a double one off course)

I agree that Leap will make him a nightmare.

I would suggest you consider Sure Hands, as this GR would most likely be your ball carrier on offense, and the guy to pick up the loose ball on defense.

Hope that helps.

Thanks. A valid suggestion, but since our league has no strip ball players I prefer the other options. As of this writing, I'm 99 % sure I'm gonna choose leap. :wink:

Leap goes on a wrestle runner. Wrestle strip ball leap. Wasted on a blodger, well less useful. I would go fend or sidestep. He has a big target over his head. Fend will protect him and sidestep make them think twice about hitting him
