If you have two climbers, and you are NOT a 30 point climber it doesn't matter which one you'd pick. (scarcity of 30 point climbers meant picking one up on the back half the draft was RARE) To me it would come down to reliability. If a corner climber is less stable than a face climber (that's an if, I don't know) I'd take the face climber provided all other variables were equal. More stable means less chance of it falling and breaking.



Disclaimer - yeah yeah 1640 corner climber, back half draft...
