This is my Brettonian team in the Cabalvision Champions League:
Errant Crusaders - 2 rerolls - 1 apothecary - 1 fan factor - 0k in the bank - 13 players - TV 1100 (+40MNG) - Team Record: 1 win, 1 loss, 0 draws
Blitzer - 9spp - block, catch, dauntless, dodge TV 130 Blitzer - 2spp - block, catch, dauntless TV 110 Blitzer - 0spp - block, catch, dauntless TV 110 Blitzer - 0spp - block, catch, dauntless TV 110
Blocker - 6spp - wrestle, (doubles) TV 70 Blocker - 2spp - wrestle TV 70 Blocker - 0spp - wrestle TV 70 Blocker - 0spp - wrestle TV 70
Peasant - 2spp - Fend TV 40 Peasant - 0spp - Fend TV 40 Peasant - 0spp - Fend TV 40 Peasant - 0spp - Fend TV 40 Peasant - 5spp - Fend, -ST, MNG TV 40
The poll is whether or not I should use my doubles roll on the blocker for his first skill, giving him dodge, pass, or something else, or whether to ignore the doubles and take guard. Brettonian Blockers have normal access to general + strength, doubles access to agility + passing
I also want to hear whether I should fire the -ST peasant or just put him on the line to take the beating for other players. But I dont have access to too polls on the same thread apparantly so... opinons please.
I want to hear feedback as well, so try to not just vote but also explain your decision. Thanks for the help.

Take guard. Don't get cute. A double isn't worth it on him yet. With COL you need to keep your TV as low as possible.
Definitely sack the -ST. Doesn't matter if you get a loner or replace right away. -ST is no good.

Doesn't matter if you get a loner or replace right away. -ST is no good. You dont think dodge on the blocker could be worth the 20k? I seem to end up having to dodge (cause i'm down 2+ players) and getting knocked down on defender stumbles ALOT. Also, with the -ST peasant, my peasants pretty much all get taken out of the game every game. So I was thinking having that extra guy to put on the line and take an injury in place of another player would keep my other players alive longer. And if he survives the line violence and gets free, I would use him to mark big guys for an assist for my dauntless blitzers to knock them down. Would pretty much never be actually hitting anyone. Also, I have 0k in the bank. Firing him would not give me a journeyman and I want to save up 140k for my 3rd reroll. Given all those reasons, would you reconsider the reccommendation to fire him?

The dodge will cost you 40TV instead of the 20 you're thinking. With two dodgers, what's the plan? It's not like they're AG4. They're fairly limited. They won't win you the match by themselves. Maybe one of the reasons you're getting knocked around so much is you don't have enough/any guard on your team? I know it feels like you should always accept Nuffle's gifts, but you may want to skip this one. I didn't realize you had a 13 player roster. Look, the -ST guy will be a liability regardless when you use him. With AV7, he'll be one of the first to get removed from the pitch. Your opponent won't even need to commit an assist to help. 12 players on a roster is ok. Not great for a 'human' side with AV8 and no real removal potential on your side without great dice. Keep him if you want, but I'd fire.

If you're really hurting for that RR, give the blocker Leader. Will cost you 40tv instead of the 70tv.

I can only say that I wrote extensively about this...heh...
Guard is really the only skill you can put on Blockers even with a dub on the 1st skill-up (Dodge would be a cool 2nd pick on a dub)... The only reason to deviate is a +ST or +AG...and Dodge, unfortunately, is the only real choice for all four of your Blitzers (with the exception MB on Dubs or +ST, +AG, or +MV). I'm sry Brets are so cookie cutter but they literally need those 1st skills on those players to put up a fight in future matches...
And sack the Peasant, I wrote about this too... better to have a Loner steal an MVP on occasion and maybe you'll have the cash to buy em than a screwed up [-ST] Peasant stealing it and you'll just be sad...

alright well you all seem to agree so i guess. But if i don't win the champions league, and overtake wenteros' Brets who at 93rd overall are the highest ranked Bretonian team in the champions league, then i will blame and kill you all.

Take jump up, you won't regret it. Works very well with wrestle and then follow up with might blow and piling on. You need at least one killer anyway

Also, double costs 30k, not 40. At least it should, I think.

If you're married to 13 players and don't want to use cash to replace him at the moment, ST2 is fine. He would be getting two dice thrown at him anyway and he's not likely to be on the pitch for more than a half. Dodge and jump up sound cool. I wouldn't sweat the extra 10tv Fun fact, you would actually have to play and win fewer games with a new team to be the top Bret squad than you will need with your existing team. It's a tiny difference but do whatever. Also important to note that the ingame standings mean nothing and Wenteros isn't actually the guy you're trying to catch. Loink

In the next game I played, I got destroyed. Dead blitzer, crippled Blocker, was bad. Team retired.
