Clan Brownthistle
Retired [X2] Halfling

<b>Background:</b> Clan Brownthistle consists mainly of halfling characters that I, my wife, or my friends have played in various RPGs and MMOs throughout the years. I've always liked halflings, so I decided it was time to make a halfling Bloodbowl team and try them out. So far it's been fun.

<b>I give you this warning upfront:</b> If I have 90k gold in my treasury, I may buy Deeproot Strongbranch before our match. The reason I don't buy him automatically is because I may want to enter a tournament that doesn't allow Star Players. If you don't want to face Deeproot, please don't challenge or accept a challenge from Clan Brownthistle.

If I have less than 90k gold but more than 10k, I may buy master chef ingredients (Wizard). Halflings have very few advantages going for them, but reroll denial is one of them.

<b>Skill Selections:</b>
4-6 Diving Tackle (next skill Side Step)
4 Sure Feet (next skill Catch)
If +ST, then Side Step next (then Diving Tackle/Sure Feet as needed)
If +AG or +MA, then Sure Feet, Catch, Side Step

<b>Doubles Selections:</b>
Kick x1
Sure Hands x2
Dirty Player x2
Block
If +ST, then Block
If +AG, then Jump Up
If +MA, then Sure Hands

<b>Never turn down any stat increase on a Fling!</b> (including double 5s)
