Next skill for +1 AG Wight's third level

Post by WhyNotPurple »

So my undead team is coming along nicely with a lot of players progressing unto their first or second level after 10 matches. One player stands out however: a Wight that has just reached his third level. He has already gotten Tackle and +1 agility, but has now roller a double 5. What do you think would be best to proceed?

Current:
Wight 6 3 4 8 Regenerate, Block, Tackle, (Double 5)

As for the rest of the team's hitters: the other Wight has Guard, one Mummy has Block, and the other Mummy has Guard.

Depends on the rest of your team and league.

Without knowing anything about that, I'd say dodge or side step

I think you should change your username to "WhyNotWight" :-)

If you are using him as a cage buster, maybe explore leap? Or just say no to the doubles and take strip ball.

MA7 is not to be sneezed at. He'll be a good sweeper.

However, as mentioned, it would be good to know the rest of the team, your opponents and the enviroment the team plays in?

Wow a lot of quick responses, thank you!

The rest of the teams in the league are: Lizardman, Elf, Wood Elf, Dwarf, Norse, Goblin, Orc

My complete team with their levels:
Mummy - Block
Mummy - Guard
Wight - Guard
Wight - +1 AG, Tackle, (double 5)
Ghoul - Block, Sure Hands
Ghoul - Wrestle
Ghoul - Guard
Ghoul
Zombie - Block

I was considering Dodge and Leap as good options

I'd go with dodge.

ag4+dodge keeps him mobile and makes him a great safety/receiver, and outside of the dwarves and Norse there is likely to not be a ton of tackle on your opponents.

Thank you guys for taking the doubt of this skill choice away for me. I'm going with Dodge :)

I'm late to the party but I agree with lunchmoney, +MV is the way to go. Any doubles gets him Dodge but +MV to chase down all those faster players you will face? Wood Elves? Skinks? Elves? Solid Gold!

My vote also goes for Dodge, this is a staple skill for AG4 players, sure MV is also very sweet but uses of Dodge are even bigger and you already have 4 tackle targets, so he wont hog all the attention :)
In the end you can not guarantee this player will ever roll another double for improvement rolls.

I'd take MA since he'll be very effective with the ball and as a sacker
