Fair comment, but consider the way big guys are normally used: last. You've already tried the blocks against the important players, you've used reliable players (and bouf has some very good blitzers). You've got just the krox left to move, and he's on the LoS or, hopefully, beside a key opposition player. But in all likelihood, that player or players is on the side of the LoS/krox that he wants to be on. If you can put someone out of position, and if possible into a Diving Tackle TZ, then you'll be in a better situation in the opponent's turn.DDogwood wrote:The problem I see with Grab is that it only works on a Block, not a Blitz - and Prehensile Tail doesn't keep opponents in your TZ like Tentacles. So, you're more likely to set up blocks against sacrificial lambs than valuable players.
The most likely scenario is that you've removed someone from the LoS, quite possibly someone with Guard, reducing the likelihood of a 2d block against you. It doesn't matter that you'll be blocking a lineman, as that was all you had the chance of blocking anyway. And if you were lucky enough to be successfully blitzing the ballcarrier with the krox, then not being able to Grab him isn't going to matter anyway.
). Shadowing is rarely going to help against them.
the agony of choice. I play tonight and will get that casualty or die trying, I'll let you know what I roll soon!
), only improvements I have so far are +ST on a blitzer, +ST on a catcher, and Kick on a lineman. Though I got the blitzer and lineman ups on the last game, so I haven't had a chance to use them.
