“Firstly this match largely underscores some of the problems with gnomes: lack of dodge means they get knocked down too often, and stunty means this results in player removal. Squig Slayers are mighty, but if they are taken out, the team has no real hitting power; this game had some of the best bombs I've ever seen (multiple throws requiring 6+, many requiring 5+, and a few interceptions by my goblins, yet still almost every single bomb connected with at least 2 of my players; the opening turn saw 8 of my players knocked down by bombs), but even with that, the bombs almost never removed players, let alone cas them. The chance to dodge the bomb combined with a non mb armour roll simply doesn't affect the enemies often enough.

But my main reason to actually write this match report is because this is the first time I've ever cleared a pitch so successfully (although Kalamona certainly helped with his late fouls that seemed to be mostly a 'don't let this good daredevil die!' style foul) that I have earned touchdowns from my opponent not being able to set up.

So while it is a dicing, and that's never super match report worthy, it was also a first for me, so that was match report worthy.

Thanks for the match Kalamona!”
