Entered with Goblins, Vampires, Necromantic and Wood Elves. I've played less than 10 matches with each of the first three races (and only the goblins managed to win a game).

The Wood elfs are my least played elf race, but should be fine. This ll be a learning run: )

So, what race should I make a team for box in to give people who are going for the trophy losses?


I have no idea what that question means


What is the best race to use to greif everyone by countering their squads and beating them? Like what race can I dish out the most losses with?


the race you are the best with?

go with those then, both 3 point teams so you'd have to take 2 teams in either the 0/0 or 0/1 categories if you intend to play in the BBT Wink

I don't want to compete in the trophy, I just want to give teams loses. If I do well enough with orcs or zons that I think I could get a racial title then I'll sign up a squad just to stop others from getting a racial title

Anybody else with a team stuck under 900k after the first game?

Is it even possible to arrange such a recovery game by the scheduler's rules?

Great suggestion! I forgot that they were a thing.

How do I apply?

Check out the tournaments page.

The smallest Brawl is 1500 so you could get destroyed. Wink

Blood bowl is a competitive game and I think adding harder matches in the box makes the bbt better rather than worse as more players will have fun playing competitive matches and the bbt as a whole will be more legitimate than if everyone played cupcakes.

Also fumbbl is designed so that as many people can play blood bowl how they want to play it as possible and the way I want to play it is to lower the median bbt score as low as possible

Yeah exactly so you go around at parties spilling everyones drinks so the overall alcohol level is lower because it just must be more fun at parties not being drunk, right?

You could also try to destroy the teams so they have a better challeng for the next couple games, everyone would love that as well

@Strider84
You're so mean. I agree wholeheartedly with his sentiment.

It is so rewarding to know that I am welcomed here for who I am rather than ostracized because I was raised without any boundaries of any kind set whatsoever, and subsequently has grown up without any social skills. I am usually called out as the reason that society can't have nice things.

I would also like all my opponents to have cancer. Can this be facilitated within the client?

As a NA coach, more coaches activating is more coaches activating. As long as they then play the game...

Sure, if one person wants to try to game the rock/paper/scissors that is blood bowl... I'm hoping there's enough folks playing each strategy that it'll still be fun for the majority, most of the time. In the meantime, there's more folks activating!

You realize that the BBT is in part about increasing the diversity of races/amount of matches in the box right? I guess if you can't learn to be a better coach there's always trying to make others look worse in comparison eh? Good luck with that! Laughing
