Just getting in first with my prediction...

This will need to be a sticky soon, like cpomb before it
.

In the new edition I predict massive whinging about dp and sg combo. With fouling every single turn of the game.

I'm interested to see how this unfolds..
Cool

I expect teams to be running fewer players so that should mitigate rampant fouling or at least give it pause.

I really can't be arsed to look it up. How has it changed.

Can you now get +2DP? Twisted Evil

what's the odds of sending off with sg, just a straight 1/6 for the double on the injury roll?

DP isn't more damaging, so people with SG might foul more now but they're not particularly more capable of doing damage (other than through volume)

not sure why this is going to feel broken to anyone, as it's only marginally improved over now?

Fouling is not about Quantity, it's about Quality.
Aim well.

You get +1 with dp. Sg = 1 in6 chance of sending off (instead of 1 in 3), you can also foul and carry on moving. To keep your dp player safe.

Plus argue the call on top of this.

And easy access to bribes for a few teams.

You can also pick your doubles now so every lineman in the game can have sg dp on 2 skills.

Also some teams have free linemen tv wise, also some teams have more than 11 players on the pitch.

Its just going to be the new mindless tactic that will lead to auto wins on occasion which in turn will lead to whinging.

Not saying its OP...
Just making my prediction is all Wink

Edit: matts right there are some instances of 2+ dp

Fouling every turn of the game makes the games dicey as hell imo. We've all had those games when a team has 1 bribe and never gets caught, where they foul every turn, making that match a farce. That's going to be much more common is all. Op probably not... a decrease in tactical depth - imo - yes.

I just foresee significant whinging ahead.

Make fouling great again!

You should risk being sent off if a player does not foul every turn.

i definitely agree that something like UW using free snots to foul combined with their already bashy potential will cause some very nasty games.

we played some TT test games with the new rules and rez tourney builds, and UW were absolutely vicious

Thanks. Not sure I'd want it on every league though. Smile

I'm guessing that you cannot select +2DP?

Nope you can't. Though who knows what deathzone season2 will bring.
