Need feedback on how to build a DE team

[Ludakk]

Hi all!
I went with:
10 LM
1 Blitzer
2 RRs
9 FF
10k gp

Well, lost 1st game but no biggie, everyone is healthy atleast and I got 90k , got Apoth, have 50k left now.

What should I get next though?

Depends on how you are playing them. I would say get a blitzer next or a thrower depending on how much throwing your doing. I did a lot so a thrower was my first player purchase but of course I already had 2 blitzers.

Witch Elves are neat but they need a team to support them.

I'd go for completing your lineup of blitzers as the first priority. Your four blitzers will be the backbone of your team. Long-term you want both witch elves as well, but I'd get the blitzers first. (Or at least two more blitzers before the first WE.)

Get at least two more Blitzers, and then you need to make a judgement call.

If you need replacements, do that.
If you are healthy, in all aspects, then save up for your first witch.
If you are just having crummy games, but your team is surviving, grab your third Reroll.

If you come up 10k short for the witch, or your linelves are just not developing then go for the fourth blitzer.

Apart from the RR-option i completely agree.

Really? I actually lowered the priority of the RR in that post. I personnally almost always grab the "oh so critical" third reroll, before I go spending 110K on a AV7 str 3 Frenzy player, that has no BLOCK.

If you want FF9, then I'd be tempted to go for:

10 line-elves (700k)
1 blitzer (100k)
2 re-rolls (100k)
9 FF (90k)
10k in treasury to help buy apothecary after next match.

Yer i like this line up, gives you a player who can *blitz*
you could drop ff to 8 and use that 10k to buy a thrower instead of a lineman. I think thats what i did.

I second that.

I think you really need the speed of a 4th movement 7-player. As fast as possible.
And even without block your opponent will start to change his tactics when he sees a movement 7-Frenzy player on your side.
I would take the RR after that 4th "7"-player.

I'd get the blitzers. They are your back bone of the team. Save the Withes right to the end. They are a double edged sword.
