For me, it's any team that's reliant on bunching up in the middle of the field. Undead fall into that category for me, with the mummies and zombies. So do both flavors of dwarf, though I haven't played much of either, and lizardmen. So I guess my blind spots are teams where the ball really has to be funneled to one of a few guys, and teams where the individual players can't match up one-on-one with anyone.
Orcs don't qualify here, really, because the black orcs can hold their own one-on-one and the blitzers/throwers are versatile. But on the face of it. there's no reason to think of them as THAT different from the above teams, so maybe I should give dwarves or undead another chance. I don't know. |

Seconded. |
Thirded. I mean I am 0/2/12 or something with Woodies. Perhaps it is in my head but I just lose constantly with them. Other Elves aren't much better.
HOW DO YOU PEOPLE DO IT??!??!?!
It's interesting as I would say Chorfs I find to be an easier race to play. Gotta love bloodbowl. Something for everyone.

Every race gives me that weird feeling. At times i can pretend it is not there, but ofc an illusion only ever can last so long. |

any team with average strength and no AGI...
there's no get out jail free card (i.e. STR advantage or easy dodging) to save me from my bad positional play |

necromantic and chaos dwarves
when I play those teams, I get a weird feeling that the universe is out of alignment
Kinda like Guinan did in that TNG episode with Tasha Yar. |

High Elves for me. Other elves I can win with, just not them. |

Vampires. And it'll probably happen too when I play slann... they are just too damn weird. Still trying the bloodsuckers, tough.
And elves... damn elves. |

Lizards... I've tried them a little and I should have some idea of how to use them based on having played against them enough and watching them enough. But somehow they are ridiculously wrong when in my hands. |

Lizardmen. Haven't even tried to play them, the thought alone gives me a weird feeling. Even though I find playing against them usually rather interesting and fun.
Same goes to only a little lesser extent for Chaos Dwarves (only that I usually don't enjoy playing against them that much). |

I have several races that I have yet to play a single match with so that I can't answer, but playing against it's definitively Lizardmen for me. I just can't figure them out. |

Havent tried them all.
But i do especially bad with cdorfs and skaven. Cdorfs just seem to feel like a chocolate cake with mustard to me. Hobgobbos av7, tough but slow dorfs and then those mad cows. I dunno what to do with that. Also my sympathy is little. They just seem to bring too much extremes that normally couldnt be combined that easily - bordering on being cheesy to me.
Skaven are awesome. Unfortunately i cant play them at all and might never improve. While ofc there are many errors in an average coaches plays, in essence it boils down to me not being able protecting the av7 linos. I really suck so much with skaven its hard to accept at times. |
