Not telling you anything you don't know I am sure, but hoping it will spark some conversation...

On warriors like these, who are only destined to be tourney guys, I will make them so they have small chances at greatness that are easy to see.

I will make physicals so that they have a 5% or less chance in each area to come out great. For example: 45% normal, 50% good, 5% great. I will hope that these middle of the road guys will come back blessed in both areas, as these are easy to see.

I will also roll them up to look for obvious bonusses. As an example, guys with starting 12 att, def, or decise are easy to identlify as +4 if they are expert on overview. Other breakpoints work as well.

I am hoping this sparks a converstion of what others do with their tourney RU's that are just fodder on team RU's.

I currently have a 11/15 AB who is looking to be at least +12 from doing stuff like this. Now, just to see if that defense is +4 as well, and the long trek to sandbagging challengers and ADM is on.

I do this all the time. I think this is a highly beneficial/economical way to judge warriors. The only problm is it leads to things like having to run 11/15 ABs! (or in my case 8 will lungers...)

Well stated, Detective!

I agree this is a good tactic. I've found some blessed warriors by doing this. (Of course some I still cringe when I consider running them!) So, what would you do with these?

To be honest, I probably wouldn't run any of them. But th at doesn't mean they aren't runnable. I just might be the wrong person to evaluate them.

Oh, I agree that they aren't prime tourney candidates. I really only like one or two for arena play. I just wondered if someone saw something (a design maybe....) that I didn't see.

>7-7-12-9-10-13-12--DA?

No! Not right away anyway, if it was mine I'd try:
9-7-12-15-15-13-13 SL,ST,PS or 8-7-12-15-16-13-13 burner with same styles.

I would try a couple turns to see how he does but I have very good luck with 15 WT warriors.

9-7-12-15-15-13-13 SL/LU/ST/PS, even PR, I definitely wouldn't DA it right off, could be pretty sweet. Guys like this come back bonused often.

11-4-17-11-17-13-11 BA/SL/LU, use QS as a BA, look for bonuses and trem. damage, could get lucky!

11-11-10-17-9-9-17 PR

10-13-10-17-9-10-15 PR/PS/ST

9-13-12-17-9-13-11 ST/PS, DA if not nicely bonused

17-4-11-17-14-10-11 BA, pray for +5 att!

I wouldn't automatically DA any of these guys, but the first one's the only one that catches my eye.

I like Kellumbo's idea, but you also miss out on alot of +3 type guys (or +4 especially in defense) doing that. I guess it's according if it's a tourney team or a team you really like to play. Anyway, here's my thoughts....if a tourney team:

7-7-12-9-10-13-12--DA?
9-7-12-15-17-13-13 SL or 9-7-12-15-10-14-17 PS

9-4-17-8-13-13-6--Another DA?
DA

10-10-10-12-5-9-14--Workable
12-10-10-17-9-9-17 ST/PS

9-13-10-13-5-10-10--Hmm...Piker?
DA

9-13-12-12-4-13-7--OMG, if you could have only see the god he replaced
DA

15-4-11-13-8-10-9--My favorite on the list
ST
