1150k Slann with Inducements
Hi, thought I'd start another topic about Slanns (can't seem to be fed up of playing this team ). Tourney in June, 1150k, but we have to buy an inducment (star players can be the 11th player). Skills are 4 normals, 1 double (no stack).
1- Krox, 4 catchers, 5 linefrogs, Hemlock, 3 RR, apo, 2 FF (2 dodge an 1 guard on catchers, 2 wrestle on line)
2- Krox, 4 catchers, 6 linefrogs, 4 RR, apo, 3 FF, Special play card (same skills)
3- Same as 2, but replacing the FF and 1 catcher by a blitzer
4- 3 blitzers, 2 catchers, 6 linefrogs, 4 RR, Special play card (1 dodge, 1 guard on catchers, 1 block, 2 wrestle on blitzers)
5- Same as 4, but replace 1 line and the card by Helmut Wulf
Was first leaning towards the second one (my usual roster, added a card I thought would be the most useful) and then thought about Hemlock and how disruptive he can be (but I'll then have to sacrifice a reroll). The other variants are to try and eliminate as many St2 players as I could and still be competitive by using blitzers.
Thoughts?

Hemlock looks good on paper, and may work against some teams, but he is easily taken out in practice (I speak as an opponent).
My inclination would be to take:
4 Catchers
8 Linefrogs
Apoth
5 RR
with 50,000 left to spend on what you will.
All the best.

Kroxigor - Leader (or block if you prefer)
4 catchers - 2 dodge
7 lineman - 2 wrestle
3 RR
Apoth
1 AC 1 CL
1 Babe
This is the team (minus the babe, plus a lineman) that won me a tourney 2 weeks ago.

Re: 1150k Slann with Inducements
I do really like the team of Rolex.
But why not not something similar 4 catcheur+7linemen+Sibli+3 RR+1FF ?
Sibli is a saurus with block+guard+grab+stab, and without bonehead like a kroxi... so a better "bigguy" but no babe & no apo...

Re: 1150k Slann with Inducements
Humm... Didn't actually think about using the double skill and exchanging the reroll with leader and a an extra linefrog. I wonder if I would be missing guard on a catcher though. Most teams have a guard for their cage... How about swapping a wrestle for strip ball? Too situational, when wrestle offers a bit more reliability? How about a card instead of the babe (12 players + apo is already pretty solid)?
Regarding Slibli, I thought that'd be perfectat first: he would bring the extra guard, stand firm (that can be annoying for the opponent), a very good MA, block and no negatrait for a bit of reliability and some needed strength. But 250k is a lot! It means sacrificing the babe and the apo which makes for a much more fragile team for a start. Also, compared to the krox, will I be missing st5, prehensile tail, MB?

The opponent's guard must be taken out of the game by man marking (kroxigor job).Johnny KTOU wrote:Humm...

I took the babe because the inducemente are compulsory. If I could I would have taken none and more frogs.
13 players would be great (even without the apo). The 2 skilless catchers spend the first half in the bench were they can't get hurt.
I think you don't have enough skills to begin with to give SB, that is situational and can be negated by SH.
Wrestle works a little less, but saves you RR. You will need them.
Slibli is simply too expensive, for a guy that can be taken out of the game by a zombie.
