Amazon lino, +AG

Cooper · Post by **Cooper** » Sat Sep 24, 2005 11:07 am

It's a normally developed Amazon team. TR 170-ish.

What to give to a AG4 lino,...

pro sounds ok-ish, because she will be making the most difficult rolls from the team,...

surehands? sounds good, but then pro might be better.
block? always good, more protection,...but i have quite some blodgers already
tackle? neah,...stripball? could be,...but without block,...

choice is eitehr pro or block i guess,...or am i forgetting something?

you need blodge because blodge is what's making the team strong.
on doubles, give her guard, on a single roll, pass block or sure hands could be good ideas imho.

Guard is wasted on an AG4 player except when your playing elves!

Blodge is indeed the strong combo you need for the girls,

Sure Hands a good possibility, and so is indeed Pass Block.

I disagree. AG4 and Dodge allow the player to go exactly where they are needed with Guard to give the assists. I think a Zon with Ag4, block, and guard would be an extremely good support player.

A guard player will have to be in touch with an opponent to be effective. Next turn she might end up dead. I allways try to keep my zons out of opponents tackle zones!

What game are you playing? 4 AG guards rock, especially when they have dodge. It's a mobile assist, that would give Amazons some much needed hitting power.

heh, cool....well it wasnt a double,...

so i heard block a couple of times, and passblock.
I am no fan of passblock, especially when it is only one player.

Block would be logical then,...but would you choose that while there already like 8 or 9 blodgers around?

Block just keep her alive and on the field for few games.

@Cooper
i think we all agree she needs Block first. all the other suggestions were for her next skill, since you have to think ahead for exceptional players, and an AG4 zon is an exceptional player.

@Draco
as my fellow posters have said, AG4 allows repositioning and even dodging into TZs, which is why Guard is a good thing to have on such a player. of course, Sidestep could be good too, and even NoS if you're into that skill (i don't like it myself, but whatever floats your boat).
back to the point, Guard is very useful, and when you say she might end up dead next turn, i'd like to underline a few points:
- she's a blodger. blodge helps to survive.
- if you have Guard, you do the hitting. if you do the hitting, chances are there will be no opponent in contact when your turn ends, because she will have helped blocking them away or knocking them prone.
- every AV7 in the game may 'end up dead next turn' =P that's their fate. she could also fall prone on a GFI to get into a scoring position and die. she might as well be useful =)

Block, then Pass Block.
Guard on a double.

ag4 zon is the best blitzer in the side.

dodge +Ag4 / block/ stripball/ tackle -should both wins games and give you a new angle. Leap if you get a double
