A founding member and the first captain of the team. He appeared in 24 of the team's first 25 games, starting 23 of them offensively - mainly from the centre position. He also made 23 defensive starts.
He didn't seem too effective violence-wise, considering he led the team in blocks by far (152 to 122), but was only tied for 2nd with casualties (at 5, lead being 8). But he knocked out 7 opponents, badly hurt an Ogre, a Beastman and a Wood Elf Lineman, broke the ribs of a Werewolf (which regenerated) and broken the jaw of another Wood Elf Lineman.
Opponents seemed intent on removing him from the play, as he was pushed into the crowd twice, fouled by a Hobgoblin, twice by a Zombie and twice by Bryce the Slice (the 2nd of which resulted in his only KO). He was however injured 3 times: badly hurt twice (by a Beastman and a Chaos Dwarf) and had his arm fractured by a Tomb Guardian, resulting in missing a game. He was killed in game 25 by a Werewolf, and the apothecary was not available to assist him, as he had already had to see to Andrzej's apparent death.
He successfully made 3 dodges in his carrier and 27 of 30 GFI attempts. He unsuccessfully tried picking the ball up once, and made 1 catch out of 5 attempts. He used 20 rerolls - 13 of them for blocks. He had a few plays where his athletic ability showed:
Game 7 - catches the ball after it was knocked out of an Amazon blitzer's hands by Tomasz, then scores the TD
Game 18 - dodges away from a Chaos Warrior to blitz the ball carrier (however, he then failed at the block)
Game 20 - dodges away from the Deathroller to secure the end to trap the pursuit and help Tadeusz score his final TD with the team before being killed
Michal went on to play for the team which killed him as he was raised as a Zombie by the Dragon Ball Gang. He changed his number to 15 and was nowhere near as skilled as when he was alive. His final appearance was game 37 for his old team, as old and new met for a 4th time. He was killed at the start of the 2nd half by Andrzej and did not regenerate. His new teammates exacted revenge by killing 3 dwarves and seriously concussing another all in quick succession.
As a Zombie, he played in 14 games, being on the field for 104 turns, with 10 blocks and 4 fouls (one of which was on Kacper in a rematch), and 1 rushing yard.
