Warrior General Games

"Big" Bob Brown's dot shrinks, but he continues to move around and appears to hold his block on the defender. Bob dominated all day so I doubt it's a quirky reverse pancake. What are we looking at?

my guess would be a cutblock attempt. Dt shifts after the screen, lg tries cut. He moves though.....that is my best guess, but just a guess.

Weird things happen at the end of plays or when the play is out of both the blocker and defenders range. If the rest of the game went well, I would not put too much thought into this one play.

its one movement, its possible he got knocked over again the second he got back up...

Yeah, I think the first block was a cut block because and the defender is stunned (my guy has a lot in Shock Block) for six clicks, but that doesn't explain why when the defender is un-stunned why my shrunken dot moves for THREE consecutive clicks appearing to hold block. Check it out in slow motion. Now that's just weird. I can't see three consecutive cut blocks in three clicks, but maybe. Not noticed anything like that before in GLB.

This isn't a serious issue, just has me curious about game mechanics because I thought when a dot shrinks it meant the guy was on the ground immobile, but here we see a guy that appears to be on the ground but very mobile, holding his block like he did all day.
