Is this under LRB4 rules? If not, why are you wasting doubles on skills the Blitzers and Catchers can take on normal rolls?

Even in LRB5, I think you've a pretty good line up, might wanna swap 2 FF for a CL and AC, or up grade a lino to a thrower with that 20k.

Skill choices-blitzers-guard, sure hands, dauntless and tackle, I wouldn't worry about doubles for them.

Linos block, kick, guard on doubles

Thrower, sure hands, leader, accurate

catcher, block, sneaky git.

Your blitzers will be key, you'll want a sure hands player and as much guard as you can get.

Never played Amazons, but I'm thinking that Sneaky Git is wasted in a tourney.

For normal rolls on the Blitzers, I'd go Guard.

For normal rolls on anybody else, Block is always a good choice. You have easy access to blodgers. In a resurection tourney, that can make your opponents throw fits (unless you play against lots of Dwarves, but then block will help a lot more than most other skills).

I'd second this but I'd consider adding one Surehands (first lino or Blitzer) to protect against Strip Ball (rarer with random skills I know) and avoid burning rerolls on the one agilty roll you're likely to make without a skill reroll.

Thanks fellas for the input

Random skills - sorry i didn't make myself clear. 1st skill will be awarded to a random player before the tourney (you still roll 2D6 - no stat increases though), 2nd after the 1st match, 3rd after the 2nd match etc
