"I try not to trade on my name too much, but it can be a decent boost," she admitted. Of course the fact she'd started by helping former team mates out played into that policy a lot.
She wrinkled her nose at Roger's description of posed shots. "Yeah, a lot of them can be boring, but once in a while they're great if someone gets creative, like properly creative," she said. Not her thing, she preferred to capture what was already there most of the time.
Once they were all up in the air Angelina looked at the men's flying positions. Everybody's was a little different, and could sometimes tell you a little about their flying style, but she wasn't getting much from these two straight off. "Last names in the air?" she asked. That was pretty common in her experience, assuming names weren't more than a couple of syllables. "I respond to Johnson, John, and 'Son, just fine. Start using references to my gender and I'll respond in a match because I need to but we're going to have words," she warned. She was used to being in a team with a decent mix of men and women in the usual line up selections but she'd still experienced that from team mates and opposition players alike. She didn't think that either of them were likely to do that but you never knew.
She pushed herself higher to be on a level with Marcus, gesturing Roger closer. "So, do you have preferred formations? I'm used to changing up depending on opponents, but I've had some success with a Stacking approach as long as it's not used too often and well practiced," she said, referring to a move where Chasers flew in distinct layers and either dropped the ball down to the player below and then sped down to become the bottom layer, or the reverse, carefully throwing the ball upwards. It could be tricky to pull off, particularly the latter option, but it gave beaters a harder time and if you could manage to reverse direction mid-attack it really screwed with the opposing chasers too
