Hello just a quick question. Is Chaos Pact a forlorn race? Did they ever win a major or not?
Thanks if you will answer. |

They are forlorn. They are a relatively new race, fall behind on high TV compared to Chaos and Nurgle and lack any good stars to compensate for it. |

A Pact coach explained to me once that they're to regular Chaos as Humans are to Orcs; a faster, more varied side with less strength. Which fits my experience of planing against them (in Ranked - and I don't have enough of playing as them).
Though I think the difference is both more (in terms of tiers) and less (in terms of speed/strength) pronounced than between Orcs & Humans. |

What they lack in Strength they make up for in fun, but I wouldn't say they were faster. |

They are, but not by much -Chaos Warriors are speed 5 after all, and Pact has the Skaven Renegade. |

Well yeah, they are technically just about faster, but not objectively so. I mean, having one renegade doesn't mean you can move a cage any faster, and he's likely not even your ballcarrier. And the Warriors are only as fast/faster than the big guys. I certainly don't think Pact are a team that can use speed to hurt the opposition in a way that Humans can (taking the example given). |

On the Grotty's page, we can read:
Quote: | the Forlorn Races are defined as any race that has NEVER won a major. these races are: Chaos Pact; Goblin; Halfling; Khemri; Lizardman; Norse; Ogre(CRP); Slann; Undead and Underworld. |
I think Lizardman ain't forlorn anymore. |
