Use them in tandem to go after the ball carrier and knock the ball loose, perhaps then picking it up and scoring. You need to build two of these guys and set them up one either side of the pitch when you are kicking off to the other team. These are probably one of my favourite players to build in the entire game and in my opinion one of the keys to a succesful Skaven team. Doubles: Horns/ Guard, Two Heads/Mighty Blow.Normal: Wrestle, Side Step/Dauntless, Leap/ Tackle/Strip Ball.It shouldnвЂ™t be too hard to try and score two touchdowns with one in its first game so you can get a skill after the first match. Skaven coaches canвЂ™t get attached to their players, they will often die but the benefit the Gutter Runners have is that they can skill up quickly straight away. Other coaches are going to go after them anyway, so cause them lots of problems to deal with to make it harder for them to focus their efforts on this. You need to learn not to be scared about using them to get stuck in as well, if you are timid with them and just try and overly protect them, then you arenвЂ™t making best use of their abilities. The fact you can cover the pitch really easily makes them greatВ at defending despite their apparent weakness, utilise it well and you will learn why other teams curse them. If you score every time you kick off to the other team then you will never lose a game and Skaven are one of the best teams equipped to do this. My recommendation is to use them toВ harassВ the ball carrier deep in the opponents half, if you can tie them up long enough, you can either force an error and then pick up the ball and score, or they run out of turns to get the ball down the pitch to score themselves. If you fail at the attempt of the quick score you will often not have anything to fall back on, which may lead to a crippling defeat. This will make your team very one dimensional and you will also lose large chunks of value at a time when one dies. First of all, they will be hogging all the SPP of your teams, leaving their team mates often unskilled for ages. You can do this and they are very good at doing that, however I really donвЂ™t recommend to do so for a number of reasons.

They are also fairlyВ reasonablyВ priced as well like the rest of the Skaven players, which is good given you will probably need to replace them.Д«eginner coaches often see their speed and agility and just think that they should be build to scoring touchdowns as quickly as possible.

The good points are the high speed and agility that theyВ possess, along with their access to mutations. Their downside is their low strength and armour which can make them fragile and you can expect opposing coaches to foul them at any opportunity. They are what makes the Skaven team good and you will find other teams going out of their way to kill them. Gutter Runners are the fastest players in the game and are also one of the best players available to any team.
