“Fumbbl Cup '14 Round 2:

It has been over two years since the Dreadknights had taken to the field and what a way to make a come back than a Major Tournament. Dreadknights won the coin toss and chose to receive. They wanted to set the tone early and let Beef Heart know why they were infamous. Malikith was taken out on the 4th turn leaving the Dark Elves playing without their Legend. A battle broke out in midfield and it looked very even. It would continue until midway through the first half that Talion began to make his move up the field. He would throw a quick pass to Emeyin but the Lord of the Dreadknights would drop the ball. The Chaos Pact forces quickly converged on the ball with two players. They were both knocked away and Emeyin picked up the ball. He ran up the right side of the field where a single Pact player made a huge play knocking him down in one attempt. BH could only cover the ball with two players but it was still very well guarded. Bane the dirty Lineelf picked up the ball and threw a quick pass all while in a tackle zone. Linken caught it in single coverage and all he needed to do was dodge away. Unfortunately he was tripped up and both teams go into the break scoreless.

BH received in the second half and they had a noticeable numbers advantage. Their Dark Elf Renegade, Edagener, ran the ball up the field. He was caged up and they slowly marched up the field. The Dreadknights put up a respectable defense making life difficult for the Pact team but it was not enough to stop the score. BH would score with two turns left in regulation.

DK received and they put on their hurry up offense. The fans were rowdy and charged into the field stunning most of the BH players. DK surged up the left side of the field with Lucretia running the ball. A Wizard blasted the Witch Elf with a lightning bolt causing her to fumble the ball. Edagener dodged through and recovered the fumble but Lazarus made a big play and tackled the Renegade. Lucretia jumped up, grabbed the loose ball and sped into the endzone to tie the game at one a piece sending the game into overtime.

DK won the coin toss and chose to receive. They tried to recreate their previous score up the left side of the field but BH was ready. The receivers were shutdown and Talion chose not to force the issue. He decided to hand the ball to Dante and the Lineelf swung the ball to the right side of the field. Lucretia made a key mistake trying to knock a Marauder down but ended up KO'ing herself instead and freeing the opposing player. The Marauder took a shot at Dante but was not able to take him down. Dante dodged away and attempted a quick pass to Judas but the ball came loose as he began his throwing motion.

BH surrounded the ball and this time they were able to steal possession. DK tried to delay them as long as possible hoping for a favorable coin toss result. Lazarus found an opportunity to tackle Edagener causing a fumble right by the endzone. Judas tried to be a hero and pick up the ball but fell on top of it instead. The ball would bounce one space backwards but that would be a deciding factor. Edagener stood up, came back for the ball and tried to go for it into the endzone but fell on his second try ending all chances of a touchdown. The buzzard would sound to signal the end of overtime and the end of the game.

The team advancing to the next round was decided by a coin toss and BH won it. The Chaos Pact forces move on but both teams put on one hell of a game. Congratulations to Coach Jorj.
