Juggernaut+block

Hi, I did a quick research without success about my question :

a "juggernaut+block" player makes blitz against a wrestle player.
dice result is pow/skull

so the coach uses juggernaut to cancel wrestle skill but choose to not change pow/skull in push because of block skill and so the wrestle player is blocked.

is it possible?

it seems yes, because the rule says 'may change pow/skull result in push result"

many thanks for your help, and sorry the answer is in an other post I did not fint it and I'm not a regular of this forum.

I think you are asking whether the part of Juggernaut that cancels Wrestle is separate from the part that swaps a both down to pushback. The answer is yes, you can cancel Wrestle without having to convert the block result to a pushback.

many thanks

we still have a doubt about how to understand the first may (about the using of fend, stand firm or wrestle) but now we are sure juggernaut+block looks to be a good combinaison

Quoted from LRB5

Juggernaut (Strength)
A player with this skill is virtually impossible to stop once he is in motion. If this player takes a Blitz Action, then opposing players may not use their Fend, Stand Firm or Wrestle skills against blocks, and he may choose to treat a ‘Both Down’ result as if a ‘Pushed’ result has been rolled instead.

There are Two real parts to this skill

Part 1) If this player takes a Blitz Action, then opposing players may not use their Fend, Stand Firm or Wrestle skills against blocks
Meaning that when a Juggernaut player blitzes; Fend, Stand Firm, and Wrestle get canceled by Juggernaut.
Part 2) he may choose to treat a ‘Both Down’ result as if a ‘Pushed’ result has been rolled instead
Meaning that when a Juggernaut player blitzes; if a Both Down result is rolled the player may choose to treat it as if it were a Push, or choose the Both Down.

The two events are not tied to each other.

What do you call a player with Block and Juggernaut?

Do you take the B from Block, drop the J from Juggernaut and put them together?

I think you do. Oh yes!

Buggernaut is the new Blodge? Or is it Wrackle?
