My Little Arsenal vs South City Scum

Boss I sent you a pm on fumbbl check it out when you get the chance.

>>45305465

Apparently not. You get a Win for the League, but a forfeit is different to a concession in-game for some reason and doesn't give anyone anything.

It is bollocks, and it's why I was trying to avoid it.

>>45305711

So FUMBBL doesnt give any MVP or money at all on a player forfeit? That kinda sucks.

>>45305933

Unfortunately it appears not. I have no way of Conceding the game instead or I would.

>>45305711

That's really strange, can't believe FUMBBL has omitted that. Are they afraid people will abuse that to power level teams? You could already to that with a bunch of friends as it is.

So anytime there is a player who doesn't show up, or a player that drops-out, a team is going to lose out on SPP and cash. Feels very weird.

>>45307581
Keep in mind Apos keep players in the game on a Badly Hurt, or if rerolling a Serious Injury into Badly Hurt. On a KO, or Stun they player stays on the pitch. Teams that depend on pitch removal (mostly Khemri and to some extent Dwarves) would see their chances sink somewhat.

Generally speaking this also erodes the advantage of teams that rely on cheap benched linemen like humans, and makes teams with high SPP powerhouses much stronger, as you can no longer threaten to eliminate them from the game. It also means that threatening casualties on a stall is no longer a very reliable method to force a score, because the other coach can have multiple apothecaries.

Technically the Apothecary is "bring a player back into the game at the cost of 50k"; in other words, you get one benched player for 50k. To frame the costs another way - you're paying a mere 50kTV to give your 200k TV Wardancer another life.

get this hothead outa here

How is the playo ffs working for the babbies again? Do we have our own and the top 2 seeds play in the big play offs? Or just the top 2 seeds from the regular season get to go to the play offs?

Also does Mauled's team get to count as a team in the babbies latter?

>>45308574
The team who won the Rookie League gets to be the 4th team in the playoffs, while the runner up becomes the 8th team. No, the Rookies don't get their own playoffs.

I'm assuming Mauled will auto-concede if the White Lions make it to the playoffs.

>>45308793
If the White Lions make playoffs they'll simply be substituted with the next highest Rookie team.

https://fumbbl.com/p/player?player_id=2830241
https://fumbbl.com/p/player?player_id=3611134

That gives you a 13 move Catcher who can run from the line to the endzone in one turn. In a situation like this you can try a 1TTD every turn with pretty reasonable chances of success no matter what the opposing setup is - and it looks like in this game both teams just attempted a scoring battle rather than any stalling. High TV Elf gets pretty ridiculous.

>>45310002
Were wood elf catchers changed from different stats? AFAIK the only current 9 MA player is the gutter runner

>>45308132
>Teams that depend on pitch removal (mostly Khemri

Whoa whoa whoa, Khemri are not a big bashy team. Khemri is like a moving roadblock, a position team. Sure you can try to knock some players off with your POMB Blitz-ras, but it's certainly not reliable.

Any tips on dealing with orcs as humans? They seem harder to deal with than chaos or dorfs.

>>45312325
Play elfier.

>>45310068
Yes, there's been more than a few overhauls. If you look at the date of the game it was played back in 2006 - that would've been around LRB4 (current CRP is technically LRB6).

>>45310134
Note I include Dwarves in the list too. The thing with slow, position heavy teams like both of them is that they don't have any contingency plans. Position-based play is not forgiving of mistakes, and Blood Bowl has lots of opportunities to make mistakes.

>>45312325
The key to an Orc matchup is to make use of the speed advantage to try and split apart and isolate the team via screens. Any blocking you do should work towards this bigger goal of trying to isolate the Black Orcs from the ball. Orcs generally start close together but below average movement means that they have a hard time getting around screens.

Playing v nurgle, Nuffles decides to fuck with me the entire game. Up 1-0 at the half, down 6 players. Lots of MB on Nurgle but that doesn't matter, didn't need MB to murder an AV 9 player, thanks for being useless APO.

>>45319971

Yes, yes, yes and probably not.

>Should humans take +st on a lino or catcher or just take guard

Its almost like you dont want a to have a catcher who doesnt get 2-die blocks against him every time he's blitzed, or a lineman who can punch shit on his own.

>>45319971
>Should high elves ever take +st or +ag on a linelf?
Having a guy with 4 St when literally no other player on the team has easy access to ir sounds like not even a question.
+ag is a bit more questionable, but hey, its not doubles, even if you dont have blodge yet, you'll get em later. 5 ag allows you to pull off some completely shameless bullshit, like picking up a ball inside many tackle zones, or dodges into tacklezones. Few things feel better than running right through a screen your opponent has carefully set up, as if it was not there at all.

>>45320109
> 5 ag allows you to pull off some completely shameless bullshit

I had a 5 AG Hobgoblin with leap two years back. Never was there a more hated or misnamed player in our league as Mr Fumbles.
I've legitimately had opponents not use their wizard because they only wanted to use it to lightning bolt him and him alone.

I proceeded to win without him.

Which team is av7 team is more fun to play Pro Elves or Norse? I have ideas for both and I can't decide which one I want to play more.

>>45324785

>>45305318
Newbie to blood bowl here, currently playing Blood Bowl 2 and I don't really have a good introduction to playing the game.
Is there any guide in the OP you would heavily suggest or any tips from teh anons here?

>>45324785
Pro Elves are more of a passing team, and all the typical elf stuff applies - you try not to be in a position to get hit, and team-wide AG4 helps you play the ball well even if you start losing elves.

Norse play like fast Dwarves that give up high AV for better movement. The thing about Norse is that you can't play nearly as elfy so you trust more in your team-wide Block to prevent your players from getting knocked down, and team-wide strength access and a couple of 4ST players helps you out if you end up running out of men. In practice this doesn't always end up being as consistent as the elf method and Norse games can be very swingy.

>>45325412
fug I replied to the wrong post, meant to reply to OP
also I have a bretonnian team.

>>45325412
You can play the full game for free on FUMBBL, and it has all 21 teams vs. BB2's 8; although BB2 does look a lot nicer. It's a pity that people don't bother to look up the game before they buy - mistakes like >>45324603 can be easily avoided by trying the game on FUMBBL first or in a local tabletop league.

As for general guides, FUMBBL's strategy guide is a good place to start:
http://fumbbl.com/help:The+Taoch!+of+Blood+Bowl%3A+A+Condensed+Guide+for+Newbies
If you prefer video format, cknoor covers much of the same thing (see the playlist in the OP).


I think this guide was forgotten in the OP:
http://pastebin.com/6Y2EQ1mS
This one covers team selection with an emphasis on which teams will teach the game best. In short - if you're new, play Humans or Orcs to start. They're average teams that can do a bit of everything.

>>45325534
I've already gotten 120+ hours out of it, what I'm looking to do is to get good at it.

>>45325534
If you need further guides, FUMBBL also has a collection of racial strategy and rosters:
http://fumbbl.com/help:Strategy

Another great site is BBTactics.com; lots of solid advice on how to skill and develop players.

>>45325571
Play the game with better opponents is the number 1 suggestion I have. If you're still just playing random matchmaking it will be hard to measure your improvement; you generally don't get to play the same opponent again, and you don't really have anyone watching or debriefing your game.

I suggest trying to join an actual structured league with some sort of group stage/swiss/round robin format and a playoff. There's a small /tg/ BB2 group that's running tournaments and a larger FUMBBL one. There's a small group of players in each who enjoy spectating the games and who you can hit up for feedback. What's more, because you play the same set of opponents regularly you can learn as a group and actually measure your improvement in a much more meaningful way - a good player might steamroll you initially, but as you get better you will notice you perform better in your matches against him.

>>45325571
>>45325850
The other thing to do is to try and review replays of games you've played - both the ones you did well and the ones you did poorly. Try and track your play and see where you made mistakes - or alternately, where you could have optimized your play (perhaps you made a pass when a handoff was sufficient, or perhaps you could have done actions in a different, less risky order).

A lot of BB is pattern recognition - identifying the least risky way to execute a particular objective, so reviewing your past games allows you to train that skill. You can also train this skill by spectating other games as well, especially of players who are better than you. Watch players and try to second-guess their actions or at least try to identify why they take the actions they do.

>Be Humans against chaos
>Prevent him scoring in the fist half.
>Can't score on your drive because none of the 4kos came back.

>>45325992

13KB, 736x62px

Right.

I know dropouts aren't an alien concept, indeed compared to Reddit's league of similar size we've had miles less, but it's a pain in the arse in the Swiss format.

We have two options

1) As Big_Moth has already experienced, anyone who draws the Caledor Leatherheads gets a Forfeit in their favour, which is basically a free Win without the SPP or Money you would get from a Concession

2) Another filler team like the Rookie one I run.

>>45326129
Why don't we promote 13,5 elfen in Zamonien to the big boys league?

>>45326184
You can't remove a team, even if that team is moved up we would need another team in the rookie league.

>>45326249
Nah, Mauled has a team in the rookie league, you could just get rid of Mauled's team and move a rookie team up. Then both leagues would have even numbers

>>45326270
You can't remove a team, only replace.

>>45326184
top kek, just wait til i play against caged maniacs and you will wonder what am i even doing in the league with 2 players left alive

got dubs on a DE blodge blitzer, what should i go for? have a str4 witch elf so idk if i need the MB, guards probably the better choice yeah?

>>45326295
But if we move you up, I'll go from 4th place to third and without mauled, second and if I am in second I get to be in the playoffs :^)

>>45326291
And is there no way to set the rookie league so it's just mauled v mauled for the rest of the round?

>>45326341
Both are good, I personally would go guard as it is safer. But mighty blow can ruin an AV7 team's day.

>>45326341
MIGHTY BLOWWWW

>>45326341
MB if you plan on doing a lot of blitzing with the blitzer (since nobody is going to stay close to an MB blitzer) - remember that it's basically -1AV, so AV8 becomes AV7 and so forth.

However if the Witch ends up doing most of the blitzing on the team it's probably better to stick with Guard, and Guard will probably win you more games if you don't have any other sources of it. A Blodging Guard is very difficult to dislodge, especially if he lives long enough to get Sidestep.

>>45326095
Except i didn't because it's my third match with the team and it was my catcher and two blitzers out.
Not saying it was impossible or anything but it required someone who is better than me probably.

>>45326129
I'm willing to go with Forfeits; but on the flip side since the Leatherheads are so low it's likely the teams who draw them are going to be the ones who need the SPP and cash more.

As an alternative:
3) Run a filler team in the Leatherheads spot (preferably HE, but can be anything), but concede every game (rather than playing it out).

It would mean having to schedule a specific time to meet up for a match just to concede it, but this allows you to do a "proper" concession, with both MVPs and winnings awarded, rather than a forfeit. There's also no chance of this team making it into playoffs either.

>>45326437
>However if the Witch ends up doing most of the blitzing on the team
shes doing a fair bit of it, but i dont really pick one guy whos doing the blitzing usually, depends on the situation, all 4 blitzers and even my runner do their share

>>45326493
In that case, probably Guard. The thing with Mighty Blow is that you really have to commit to doing as much blitzing as possible with the player that has it in order for it to really pay off. Any turn you aren't hitting someone with MB is a turn that MB is "wasted". Obviously you probably will never use MB all 16 turns, but the more turns you can use it the better.

Guard is much more versatile and flexible - the player just has to be standing in a scrum.

To add on to this, League is precisely the place for dicking around with practice games with friends, doing friendlies, private leagues, etc.

Generally the site-wide rules apply only to the "competitive" divisions, [R], {B], and Stunty. Mods generally don't get involved in private leagues at all, and if they do it's only to enforce rules against illegal content, profanity, etc.

Now if you try to apply to a League with a team that concedes a lot it's within the League commissioner's discretion as to whether it will get accepted, but in this case *you're* the League commissioner so you set the rules.

>>45327127

I guess. I've never really had to look into all the [L] stuff, I just know what they can be like over there some times with rules.

I've decided anyway, Big_Moth bless him has already been fucked for SPP, but at least he got a free win out of it.

In the spirit of "everyone gets a game", there'll be another filler team. LogicsFate has already volunteered his services, but I'd rather it was a random (rolled in thread) TV1000 team, and he hasn't got back to me yet on that.

I've PMed him asking as much. If not, or if I don't get anything back, any other coach is welcome to make a fresh TV1000 Pro Elf team for the filler. I'll post in morning if so.

>>45327472

I'm responding. Pro Elf, or the return of Big and Little(The other lizard team). What would people prefer?

>>45327702

Elves, before someone shitposts about Lizzies.

>>45327702
Being the vet league and considering it would be a returning team, I see no issue in you playing with your lizards and I would actually like it just to see em again, but at the same time you're also free to apply with a new team, I don't think I necessarily agree with having your new team be pro elves as decided by a roll though, I think if you were to make a new team you should choose whatever race you want

>>45327791

>There is every going to be an end to Lizard shitposting

Having a bad Lizard team in the tournament helps show they are not OP?

How does this make you feel?

>>45327702

It's just going to be a bunch of concessions so it doesn't exactly matter which.

If you're ok with a bunch of loss marks on Big and Little I suppose you can choose that if you want.

>>45327996

>Guard

Confused, mostly.

>>45328027
>its just going to be concessions

Wait, why? Thats dumb

Would making sneaky git be able to re enter the game on a 4+ roll OR act as guard for fouls instead it's current ability make it OP?

>>45328027
I think you misread,the filler team will play if i didn't misread myself

>>45328130

The filler team plays. It just can't go to the playoffs, even if it ranks that highly.

>>45327702
I'm okay with either. Bring whichever team you'd rather play.

>>45328249

I'll let Mauled make the final decision. I'd be okay either way.

>>45328046
Theres only so many usable STR skills on a fanatic anon

>>45328330

I'll start making a Pro team, in case Mauled decides that. Now to think of a theme.

How late can you wait to pick your mans before the first game of a league? Like in theory in the /tg/ fumbbl league could someone take 10 guys and then hire the last guy after finding out their opponent but before the start of the first game?

>>45331649
Can't be done on FUMBBL for the first match. A team has to be "Ready to Play" before it can be entered into a group or tournament - once you've readied a team for play no further changes can be made to it.

However for subsequent games you can wait until your opponent is drawn to make any purchases - and there's nothing in the rules against this; in fact I'd say, and I think most veteran players would agree that it's a very important part of overall league strategy to develop your team in accordance with what you're facing. The order of your matchups often will change the relative importance of skills to face and managing your skill-ups in a league context makes for much more varied and interesting builds.

There's much less of a standard cookie cutter aspect to team-building in a league vs. perpetual play - your team ends up developing a lot more uniquely as a result, and many skills that might be otherwise marginal or late picks in perpetual may become very important, such as Tackle or Strip Ball.

>>45331649
We have to submit a team/race to join the league so last minute changeups are harder. You can however wait to do skill rolls/purchase new players/etc until right before you do your match.

Why do you hate Lizardmen more then Dorfs /tg/?

>>45334778
Youd have to be retarded to hate lizards more than dwarfs.

>>45334831
You'd have to be a lizard to not hate lizards

>>45334904
Youd have to be a dwarf to not hate them the most.

>>45334778
I actually fear Necromantic in the hands of a good player more. Lizards are scary but most other teams out-skill them at equivalent TVs.

Necromantic's main weakness is that it's hard to have the right players in the spot where you want them, but really good coaches plan a few turns ahead and always seem to have that Werewolf/Wight/Flesh Golem/Ghoul in the worst possible spot for you.

>>45329107
>AG2 Strong Arm Accurate
uhm? Why? You do know that all TTM rolls are inaccurate no matter how high you roll?

>>45335465
You still need to make a +4 to launch the player at ag1 I think. Strong arm makes it a +3 and accurate a +2. But yeah, with ag2 it is a bit excsessive. Should have turned the accurate dubs into pass instead. I guess he can still make +2 TTMs in a tacklezone at least.

My human team got a + strength lineman, should I give him mighty blow or block?

>>45335957
Do you want him to hurt people or reliably throw blocks?

>>45335957
Block is the best murder skill in the game. Block is also in general the best. Which is why Wrestle is the best.

>>45335957
Id pick guard over mb for that piece. ST4 + guard is super good. Your blitzers can become killers far easier.

>>45335957
give him guard and block

>>45336003
>>45335981
>guard on a human lineman
Dreams are only dreams

>>45336018
if you think about giving him mighty blow you have rolled doubles

>>45335957
Personally I would get him Block first. Mighty Blow only helps if you can bring people down, and Block improves your chances of knocking people down. Many of the things you will want to kill with Mighty Blow come with Dodge - in which case Block improves the odds of downing them; or Block, in which case Block reduces the chance of a turnover.

Block also makes him a lot more annoying to handle - a -2db against no Block is very manageable with a RR if all you need is a push, but becomes much more difficult if the ST4 guy you're trying to move has Block.

As an alternative, you might consider Wrestle (and never go near Mighty Blow). A high strength Wrestler is handy because many teams usually run the ball on a player that has Block and/or Dodge, and it improves the odds of bringing down both equally well. On the flipside you do lose a lot of strength when he uses wrestle and it may tempt the opponent to foul him.

>>45336065
Or as others have noted - if you've rolled doubles for MB, then you can also select Guard. In which case you've essentially got a +2MA Black Orc Blocker for about the same TV as a Blorc, which is amazing.

>>45335696
>the player at ag1
that's the thing Agi 2 only changes at what point you make an accurate throw and since you do not have any chance of makeing an accurate throw Agi 2 is totally useless.

>>45336096
Well fuck, i guess ogres arent as good at TTM as i thought.

>>45336211
>i guess ogres arent as good at TTM as i thought.
they don't eat the person they are supposed to throw. The best thrower is the treeman since he comes with strong arm.

>>45336232
Yeah, but i used to put ogre on the same level of TTM game as the treeman because of the ag2. Bonehead is still a bit annoying for ttm game unlike take root.

Edgy vs faggotry, Naggarond Knife Ears vs Buddhist Elves, thursday 20:00 server time

Should I make a bret team with 3 blitzers and 9 peasants and foul the shit out of everyone? Sounds like fun for the NAF and high tv chaos teams due to having 9 fucking peasants.

>>45337704
3 blitzers are too expensive also they don't develop into anything good.
get 4 blockers 2 Blitzers and 7 Peasants and then foul to your hearts content. Also never go over 1400 tv

>>45338005
Im not trying to devlop the team into anything, my whole plan is to get 2rr and drop one after I get leader and get dirty player on all peasants and cut them if they get another level. Maybe ill go down to 2 blitzers and get a blocker after a few games. This team isn't for winning the game, it's for winning the murder bowl.

>>45337704
1 if you want to foul i would get to 13 14 players consisering peasants tend to break fast
2 you might want to consider to get something like 1 noble 2 yeos so you can both bash harder, which goes well with fouling, and feel more flavourful(at least i think these two points apply)
>>45338005
Or you can just do like these if you want to try going on the efficient side,but it seemed from your post you just wanted something funny

Ag4 and some unique starting skills like claw and/or leap on select pieces. But a reverse thick skull on all pieces to represent their frail and feminine nature, so they'd get KO'd on 7-9 rather than 8-9. Base AV7, 8 on blitzers and perhaps catchers.

McMurty's Mid-Week Update; Rookie Edition!

Investigations into the mysterious disappearance of the Caledor Leatherheads continue this week, with local authorities confirming that drug abuse may have been involved. With that news out of the way let's get to the matches so far this week!

Frug's Jumpers vs. Bretonnian Werewolf in Tilea (2-2): With the Top 6 in the Veteran's League getting hotly contested the Jumpers were able to steal Tilea's first drive with an amazing negative-strength block. A crucial misplay on the Jumpers final turn of defence however let Tilea salvage the half for a 1-1 tie. A bonehead by team Krox Frug nearly undid the Jumper drive in the second half, but the Slann managed a shaky touchdown. With two turns to go the Necromantic team rallied, inflicting enough casualties on the Slann to keep them from stopping the touchdown to tie out the game.

Big Bad Evil Guys vs. Wissenburg White Lions (1-2): A great example of human versatility at it's finest - or the dangers of unassisted blocks! The White Lions ran rings around the Evil Guys in the first half, but the BBEGs great strength reaped a toll in the human casualty box. Things were looking grim late in the second half, with the humans down to 8 players with only 4 turns to score, but a critical failed block by Marauder Miles Mayhem gave the White Lions an opening to get the ball to safety and score for a win.

Biblical Dwarves vs. ZaUnderWarudo (1-0): Like the other Underworld game this week ZaUnderwarudo brought a heat wave with them, which had few effects on the ultimate outcome of this game. Tremendous risks by the Biblical Slayers allowed them to grind the ball down the pitch for one TD, then a final risky -2db blitz completely dashed ZaUnderWarudo's hopes of tieing out the game.

>>45343746
13.5 Elfen in Zamonien vs. River Styx Runners (2-1): A sweltering scorcher of a day barely slowed down either of these two teams, with a ferocious Zamonien defence stealing a Runner drive taking an early lead for a 2-1 win.

Fruitimals vs. Mordheim Maimers (2-1): The death scream of a Snotling is a cherished childhood memory and tykes watching this game got an earful! The Fruitimals slaughtered the Maimer's Snotling squad, leaving the team's remaining Ogres confused and unclear of the purpose of the ball, allowing them to take the game 2-1. Our pick for the bloodiest match of the week!

Maximum Marvelous Maiden vs. Monkey Majik (2-1): A furious scrimmage between a pair of alliterative teams, with Maiden taking a fast score early in the 1st half but falling before the Majik's grinding offense. The Majik offense falls apart in the second half when the Simyin fatally underestimate the power of vampire voodoo - a hypnotized linemen lets Tricky Tulip Takara-chan simply stroll into a cage to badly hurt ball carrier Oingo Boingo, resulting in an all-out battle for the ball throughout the second half which eventually sees the Vampires pry the ball loose to score.

Doomstar Requiem vs. Froggy Fractions (2-0): There's not much to say here - this is a grueling, grinding exhibition of classic Blood Bowl, with both teams locked tight in a shoving match across 16 turns and watching the blocks fly (or fail!). Despite several gutsy plays by the Fractions, Doomstar Requiem was just in its element for this game and ran a clinic on the frogs in Chaos Dwarf grinds, taking a 2-0 win. Armchair coaches, this is a match to watch the replay of - see if you can do any better at sorting out the complicated scrums!

Caged Maniacs vs. Talabheim Buffoons (2-0): The Caged Maniacs welcomed a new zombie to their ranks on turn 1 this game - Red Rab, former Dark Elf lineman! Things were just downhill from there for the Buffoons as they badly underestimated the speed of the Caged Werewolves, providing several wide open areas for them to flank the ball carrier from the rear and allowing the Maniacs to steal the ball once again in the 2nd half for a 2-0 win.

South City Scum vs. My Little Arsenal (2-0): The halfling slaughter continues this week; the Scum successfully baited the halflings into an overcommitment on defence, allowing them to get the ball safe with a handoff and giving the Scum an entire half to simply inflict pain and suffering on the Arsenal. Even though the Arsenal bench was large enough to absorb the losses, intense pressure from the Scum, and the unfortunate rooting of both MLA Trees, allowed them to steal the ball again and score for a 2-0 shutout.

That's it for this week's update. Replays are as always available from your local Cabalvision provider!
