After 400+ losses, I'm an expert in losing.

Here are some hints how to lose:

1) don't protect the ball
2) don't form a cage
3) make unnecessary rolls all the time e.g.: GFIs, handoffs, passes, dodges, fouls, 1d blocks -2d blocks, -3d blocks
4)don't setup properly vs kickoff events like BLITZ, PERFECT D, RIOT
5) play with 0 re-rolls
6) accept every matchup (Ogres vs Wood elves, Amazons vs dwarves, Orcs vs haflings and similar)
7) leave your Legends unprotected in enemy territory

and many more Smile feel free to add to the list

If I protect the ball, without forming a cage it seems like (2) is not a criterion for losing.

9: don't check opponent's skills (diving tackle, shadowing etc)-

10) Play to win

(rather than accept a draw - eg. don't stall)

Whatever you do, don't donate $10 to FUMBBL and don't send me two match reports to review!

Don't worry about boring stuff like standing up players or moving unmarked players around. As soon as your turn starts get onto the fun and important stuff like blocking.

interceptions are extremely rare; so don't mind throwing over enemy players at all, it's not gonna get intercepted.

always stand up players that are next to the enemy.

How do you set up APPROPRIATELY for RIOT Kick Off results?

just keep in mind they might have that extra turn that gives non OTT teams an edge to score - it cost me a game when I just lined up for the last blocking/fouling orgy and neglected the sidelines completly... opponent scored in 2 turns
