Yeah mirror matches are rarely that interesting but it's the FC final so let's hope for some mayhem to ensue! |

I dont mind mirror matches at all. Surprised thou that both finalists have never won a major qualifyer before only one tournament a minor is won by one of the coaches. But this goes just in line with my theory about rats possible being the best major race in the CRaP era of blood bowl
Ohh and congratz to both coaches on making int into the final of the biggest event of the year! |

Thanks Qaz! Yeah this is very new for me, feels like I've got an exam again after 20 years lol. I've only played two other Majors and no Minors but will have to join more, has been fun whatever happens in the next couple of hours ... |

Congratulations to Cyric612 who didn't go for the pre-match inducement path, he just went for the sensible route of filling up on the small squad and then going for tds. 6-5! No cas needed by the Plague to succeed in another shock. |

So the dust has settled... well what a Final that was! Real end-to-end stuff from start to finish and lots of big plays... 6-5 in OT?! Congratulations to Cyric and the Black Plague on their victory. The Ruffians rats are pretty gutted, they came very close (as I make it, after our final turn in normal time we had a ~68% chance to win it - assuming whoever won a coin toss would win. Hardly overwhelming odds, but all the same, ouch).
Btw if anybody wants that referee for a future game we still have his skull, a femur and a few ribs. The skull rattles and tinkles a bit when you shake it, sounds like there's something inside ... I think it might be a coin
As some consolation it was a privilege to play in such a memorable Final, of course I'm biased but I'd imagine that was quite a good one to watch? Hope you all enjoyed it, and see you at the next Major! The Ruffians will be back, they're practising harder than ever with their new rattly ball... |
