The first time each Drive an opponent Blocks him, he counts as having the Dodge skill.

On the pitch

Withergrasp Doubledrool is a beastman built to hold people in place. Tentacles give him a roll to stop any player dodging away from him, Prehensile Tail makes that dodge harder in the first place, and Tackle takes Dodge away from anyone who tries. Foul Appearance cancels a sixth of the blocks aimed at him, and the first block that does land each drive treats him as having Dodge, so a stumble becomes a push.

Nurgle coaches take him for 170k as a marker who keeps an elf carrier from leaving, and Chaos Chosen or Renegades sides that chose Nurgle get a Tentacles player without paying for a Big Guy. ST 3 is the problem: his Tentacles roll needs a 6 against an equal-strength player, so the hold is a threat rather than a certainty, and he has no Block. Loner (4+) is the usual cost.
