You can use it on Blocks.
Not sure it's the best choice though.

Pro can be an excellent late skill choice on the right player.

For example, on an agile player who already has Wrestle, Tackle, Leap.

In a side such as Khemri, where nobody has easy access to Agility skills, Pro can be quite useful as a poor man's Agility skill substitute. For example on a Blitz-Ra with Break Tackle, it helps him to catch, to dodge, and to GFI (not to mention blocking, of course).

Hope this helps.

Like PubBowler said- it works on blocks. Actually, I think that's the best use of it- re-roll your pushes. Since a push is usually livable, it's OK to fail. I don't like using it to avoid turnovers- it simply fails to be useful if you have a re-roll left.

In terms of generating casualties, there is no better skill combo than block, mighty blow, tackle, piling on, and pro, roughly in that order... Claw is also nice.

You are forgetting frenzy.

Strictly speaking, if the goal is genarating casualties for a single player, I believe something like this is the way to go:

Mighty blow, pliling on, frenzy, (claw), block, tackle. pro and a bunch of RRs

It's true, I just forgot all about it! But I think block actually is second place, even over piling on or frenzy... Until the league is established and block is more defensive than offensive!

The problem with non block players is that your not gonna blitz with them to often, but if you did im pretty sure migthy blow, piling on, frenzy is the way to go.

I agree that block is a better choice though.
