Run Elbow Series BLOB 2 when you want the same multi-layer BLOB structure with a different distribution finish. Your screeners and cutters move through identical actions, but the final pass options rotate through 1, 4, and 5 — keeping the defense off-balance at the moment of inbound. Call it as your secondary BLOB option so the defense can't scout just one look.
