Dump-Off vs. Pass Block vs. Shadowing

Post by stashman »

How would you play this (don't know if it has been asked for before):

Player Blitz/Block a Dump-Off player

Dump-Off player "dumps-off" to another player

The Blitzing/Blocking player also have Pass Block

Can that player "pass block" before block dice is rolled??

If this can happen, what if "dump-off" player "Shadowing" the blitzing/pass blocking player???

IRL:

pl.1 blitz pl.2
Pl.2 dump-off to pl.3
Pl.1 try to pass block
Pl.2 try to shadowing

???? It can't happen???? Or???

In the Q&A of the rulebook it has the following (check for yourself as i have summarised):

Q: If you blitz or block an opponent with Dump Off with a player that has Pass Block can you use Pass Block to move after he
declares his use of Dump Off.
A: No, once a block is declared as part of a block or blitz action , you must attempt to complete it before moving again.


What i think is more interesting is a couple of questions raised at the bottom of this page:

Can passblock be used twice in one turn if there are multiple passes caused by multiple dump offs?
I assume it can.
