Is this worth wasting any time on? 5-12-16-3-14-13-7. I know everyone will immediately suggest a TP, but i'd like to go with anything BUT a TP on this one.

Right now I am leaning towards an extremely crispy 7-13-16-6-19-14-10 burned to 9-15-16-7-21-16-11 as a hatchet wielding PS/ST/SL.

Thoughts? Other suggestions?

Thanks guys!

Captain Crispy has one point too many! In your case I'd go 7-12-16-6-19-14-10.

If you're gong to add to CN than I probably wouldn't add to SP, if you want to add to SP I probably wouldn't add to CN; unless there are points you cannot find a place to usefully put them!

I have had pretty poor results running low WT warriors as anything but TP,AB,LU,BA, or WS. I would probably try it as a WS or LU. I usually like a lower SP for a WS, to use points elsewhere, but I have made a few 12+ SP Walls and the added RIP from SP seems to prove beneficial. I've run lots of 11 and 13 WT Walls so I'm not giving up RIP skills at 15 and 17 WT in such a case. Problem here is the SP takes points I'd want elsewhere.



5-12-16-3-14-13-7 -----> 9-12-16-7-18-13-9 WS

Therefore the only other option for me is LU since you're willing to use the Toaster for this guy! Either way I'd be looking at the 2 highest skill base styles for this guy since it'll have virtually no ATT as a ST, no PAR as a PS, and probably end up not learning enough DEC as a SL; if you don't want a pretty decent TP (5-12-16-3-14-13-7 ----->9-17-16-3-19-13-7 burnt to 11-20+-16-3-21-13-9).

5-12-16-3-14-13-7 -----> 7-12-16-9-18-13-9 LU

A nice fruit gift basket with a coupon for free passes and good seats to the next tournament. They can pick up their passes from Shewish Giant, who, unfortunately, is only available at night... Wink

This is an instant DA for me. Why go to all that work raising stats just to make him low-end mediocre? Even after all the stat raises there will be 0-0-0 fighters who will clean his clock.
On the other hand, if he's in one of my arenas, by all means run him! Razz

I would love to hear Deke's thoughts on this one.

I'm not Deke, but these are my thoughts:

7-12-16-9-20-13-7 SL/LU

burn it to:

7-12-16-11-21-14-7

I can't see you getting to Consortium's desired .600 record as anything but a TP, but you can always choose a different style for your scum.

I'd suggest 9-15-16-3-19-13-9 WOS (really want to say TP, but WOS is the next best choice with such low parry).

Your main question, Is it even worth wasting time on is dependent on your goals. It sounds like you don't want a pure scum, so I'd say send it back and look for something that meets your goals better.

Even after burns he doesn't look fantastic, but if he learns parry, he'll win just fine.

Simply put, if you don't make it a "scum", it will have a hard time winning, so you may as well face it.

By all means, make that 7-13-16-6-19-14-10 a piker! Wink

This is the post that struck home for me. Why go thru all the hassle for a mediocre warrior? I decided to DA him and cross my fingers for something better. Thanks for the responses everybody!
