As this statistic will show you, DivX got a huge boost last year in April. Since khemri and necromantic teams have been given the green light and have been introduced to Open DivX is a desert populated by tumbleweeds and little else. Is DivX doomed? Can only new "officially" experimental teams save it? is not having the "officially experimental" teams that got shelved to house rules indicate that we may now be able to diddle with divx like we can diddle with Sunty Leeg?
Now that Khemri, Necromantic and Elfs are in open and pact teams are no longer officially experimental DivX FUMBBL has dried up. Few games are played there except for a lone brave stunty coach for some reason. No one wants to play agaisnt ogres and since vampires are nerfed with the new rules review hypnotic gaze interest in them has dimmed. Hopefully there is a glimmer of hope for DivX.
Sources say that position secret weapons may become officially experimental in the next rules review. That would allow implementation of these mayhem causing linemen in divX. Along with this there is the rumored playtesting vault that might happen over at fanatic.
Sources say that the playtesting vault will be a place to try out officially experimental rules. Using DivX as our testing ground may be a key to enhance DivX interest. FUMBBL's feedback should be important to the bloodbowl community as so many games get played here. If we do match DivX rules to the Playtesting Valut's rules we may become a improtant source of information for guiding the future of bloodbowl.
DivX will not become a league we can personally experiment in. My own quest to get brettonians into DivX was stemmed before i could say "Tis only a flesh wound." Anotehr DivX Cup may be in the works so if you like playing in toruneys you might want to get a DivX team in the tr 200+ range to compete in it!
