Great Video! I'd just add that if you are running 4 Blitzer/BuBs in a constructed format then pro would be an interesting pick for one of the blitzers. Since the lack of skills and rerolls it makes one of your orcs quite a bit better at dealing with the ball/rushes/hand offs/blocking. Sure it doesn't help as much as the dedicated skills but as Orcs have everything but ball handling skills on a 4 blitzer/BuBs roster that skill on a dedicated ball handling blitzer will help with a little bit of everything :)
Can you do a lost of teams power rating for sevens where it's random skill Leagues. Eg and skill heavy team, block amd dodge heavy have a big advantage in 7s. Orcs for example with block access and high armour are probably a tier 1 team?
That would be my preferred build as well. Having the thrower will help you pick the ball up. Blitzers are just too good to not have two of them. That leaves only one slot, which would be either a big un or a goblin. And that ST4 on the big un sure does look nice... The only problem I can see is that the thrower doesn't really have an obvious target for a short pass. In Elevens I would usually try to form a semi-cage around a goblin, using his dodge to get out of trouble if need be. But with no goblin, the thrower might as well just carry the ball himself.
2 bub 1 blitz 4 lineorcs 1 RR Save cash for a 3rd bub, lean heavily into them forging a path for your ball carrying blitzer. Or for one off matches: 2 bub 1 troll 1 blitzer 4 lineorcs 0 RR Lineorcs meatshield and fowl, bubs and troll mash the opposition to pulp, blitzer be a hero.
While risky, it feels like you could go without the reroll and all in on positionals. 3 Blitzers 2 Big Un's 1Thrower 1 Troll comes to exactly 600. Give the Thrower the Leader skill and you might not even miss the bought reroll, plus it comes with Sure Hands. 2 S4 and a S5 player on the pitch and three others with Block feels like it could be daunting for some opposing teams to face off against. The troll doesn't even have to risk blocking, it can just vomit!
ORCS! ORCS!! ORCS!!!

I go for the 4 blitzers build. It's great against most teams, but I've found it a struggle against teams packing bit more st4

There’s only one build for the mighty orc in sevens:
1 big un
2 blitzers
1 Thrower
3 linemen
1 reroll
Had such a great time with them recently
That would be my preferred build as well.
