you bet.

they will be on you like glue.

can you imagine it working well with shadow?

maybe not for CD's but for someone else maybe, PB to move on him then shadow him around as he tries to break free. it is an idea i suppose.

Yes it is a really nasty combo on players with enough MA to make it work, yet enough strength that somebody doesn't just hit them instead of trying to get away: Passblock, Tackle, Shadow. Witch elves come to mind. They're bloody brilliant at this against everybody but GR and WE catchers...and even then they occasionally get lucky.

*sniff* warms the cockles of my heart it does to see all these coaches suddenly wake to the joys of passblock ;)

If you enjoyed Passblock/Shadow, try these serving suggestions for even more tasty treats:

Passblock/Diving Tackle
Passblock/Tackle
Passblock/Tentacles
Passblock/Prehensile Tail
Passblock/Foul Appearance (specialty of the house)

Season with Stand Firm or Sidestep to make sure you can't blitz the passblocker away from the reciever.

Enjoy

has anyone tried pass block with very long legs. we had a skaven coach who was going for that. the +1 to interceptions was nice and the fact that the rat was a gutter runner did not hurt :)

Gutter Runner - VLL, PB, Catch, Foul Appearance
or
Lion Warrior - Catch, PB, NoS

:puke:

Its a nice idea, but the problem is that Pass Block almost has to be employed by several players to be effective. Its too easy to avoid a single "interception king" and its hard for most teams to develop two or three. An opponent might be suckered into passing over them once, but a decent coach wouldn't let it happen again.

However they do have the use of shutting down lanes - allowing you to concentrate your defence elsewhere.

the skaven coach in question only got pass block after the long legs. he obviously got that cos he was after maximum movement.

but i do get your point :)
