What do I get him? I've already got two Tackle guys. Wondering if I want to chance Frenzy, or if I want to take Fend or Grab for combo value, or if I just want to keep spamming Mighty Blow.

I don't think 2 tackle is enough, and he's a good marker with the skill combo, plus if you get lucky at 76 and get a doubles you can get Diving Tackle.

If you really don't want tackle then take Mighty Blow.

Voted MB but you can't really go wrong with tackle or frenzy either

He gets hunted a lot by POMBers and Tacklers. That's really why I was thinking about Fend initially. I don't like it for the power-level, but they are getting up there in TV....

Otherwise, given the split opinions between Frenzy, MB and Tackle, and given how much I miss mobile Frenzy, I think Frenzy is the way I'm leaning.

Edit: Took Frenzy. Played a game. Lost, broke the worst 14-game unbeaten streak ever (6-8-0). Sigh.

He did get a surf, and was generally obnoxious. But an opening misposition (put my Blitzer one square too far back without realizing it, opened a blitz on my Thrower), a bit of early bad luck, a positively orkicidal Hack Enslash, and Pouring Rain after my Thrower was MNG'ed, and my fate was sealed at 0-1.

Oh, and now on FUMBBL, I'm 4-for-34 on Pouring Rain pickups, the vast majority of which were 3+ or 4+ (a few worse, but I'm still only 1-for-2 on 2+ pickups in Pouring Rain). WTF?
