Scrappa Sorehead

Hiring cost 120,000 gp. Plays for: Badlands Brawl or Underworld Challenge.

Special rule: Yoink!

Once per game, when trying to Intercept, roll a D6: on 2+ he intercepts automatically and takes the ball.

On the pitch

Scrappa Sorehead is a goblin on a pogo stick. Pogo takes him over an adjacent square with no negative modifiers, Sprint gives him a third rush, and Sure Feet re-rolls one rush die a turn, so MA 7 stretches to ten squares more often than it should. Dodge and Stunty get him through tackle zones, and Dirty Player adds one to his fouls. Once a game, when he attempts an interception, a 2+ hands him the ball outright.

He is cheap at 120k and carries no Secret Weapon, so he plays the whole match. Goblin coaches get a second Pogoer, and Orc or Black Orc sides in the Badlands Brawl get a one-turn scoring threat their rosters cannot otherwise field. Underworld Denizens and Snotling teams can hire him too. The interception trick works once, ST 2 means any block knocks him flat, and Loner (4+) applies.
