Both times they have generated one catcher that turns into an unstoppable touchdown machine. First level is dodge to not have to rely on leap. Then add sure feet to up the movement to 9, sure hands for the ball and ignoring strip ball, sidestep to capitalize on where they get pushed and BINGO! No one can keep him out of the endzone. I also got lucky with a strength upgrade which left opposition angered at only throwing one die blocks. Blitzers, although expensive, are amazing for stopping fast, dodgey teams. Diving tackle with jump up makes these guys impossible to dodge. And i have to use the kroxiger since i play in smashmouth leagues. I have played this team twice and they are amazing.

Of course I sacrificed RR's but with my diving takle blitzers I had no problem stopping the runner. Also staring out this way let me turn to blitzers into killing machines right of the bat with block, mighty blow, and piling on. It is tempting to go for the big guy on the starting roster but I hate dealing with loner and I find that I rather add him in later on down the line. The Catchers are great on this team but the heart and soul of this team is it's Blitzer's!!!! 1000TV Starting Roster:

4 Blitzers
5 Lineman
2 Catchers
2 RR

1000TV Even

Also, if the pass is inaccurate, they still have a 46.85% chance that the ball will land in reach for a regular catch roll.  Check out the scatter table here: http://bbtactics.com/inaccurate-scatter-odds/ I also thought I should mention that even though they can only take passing skills on doubles, they still have a decent passing game.  The Catchers come with diving catch and AG4, which means that even if they are in a single TZ, they are catching on a 2+ if the pass is accurate (-1 tz, +1 accurate pass, +1 diving catch accurate pass bonus).

The blitzers are 110,000g alone. That's almost a Kroxigor!  Leave them at home, don't worry about your Linefrogs getting injured, the journeymen are just as good.  You can pull off some amazing passing plays with your catchers as they come with diving catch standard.  First doubles on a Linefrog is Hail Mary! =) 1000TV starting roster:

I have played about every other teams in 20 years of BloodBowl and I find Slann are very refreshing, they have a unique play style. The team is very dice heavy with no skill rerolls from the start, so I advise to start with no fewer than 3 rerolls. In my opinion, one of the strengths of the team lies in their catchers: they have the same potential for pulling off impossible plays and being a pain in the a** to the opponent that the skaven gutter runners have.

They are at a rather low priority at the moment in time though.
