Regarding the 'One box starting roster'... I am on your side. It is absolute BS. But for the High Elf roster I may work out really well. Because you will never use 2 throwers... at least I did not do it at any TV level... thus a small adjustment to the 2nd Phoenix will change him into the needed 7th Lino. |

Well, on Fumbbl there is no "starter box problem", at least.  |

The price of re-roll will be crucial for a team without reception or sure hands.
The negative trait My Ball on the fast Princes Dragons will probably encourage coach to play the pass a little more (rather than running from A to Z). Especially since the thrower's passes are quite reliable (even if, with the new meta, you lose the possibility when more experimented to do longue pass on 2+).
As usual, I think the most relevant thing is to have one thrower, no more, no less. |

The New thrower is really great.
Cloudburster is reworded to never intercept, no conditions.
Safe pass is natural Rolls of 1 keep ball.
On The Ball for +3move & accurate for 2+ quick/short passes means he runs 9 squares, throws 6squares on a 2+ and never fumbles these attempts.
Really speeds a quick score attempt by 1 turn & makes Ott quite good odds. Shame cant fit 2 and cant fit with 2RRs.
2 throwers could spam comps all Day. |

With D6 MVP nomination and Completions skilling the Thrower up is faster and, as soon as he gets Leader, his TV bloat decreases.
This means that he will be a TV bloat for fewer games compared to BB2020 ruleset. |

Not true!
Hilariously niche, but very long legs prevents cloudburster from preventing intercepts
£10 bounty donation to the site if anyone can link me a game in which this happens in 2025 rules
leak photo appears to show 50k RRs btw |

Ok, thanks.
So,
- 7 linemen, 4 blitzers, 2 re-roll
- 7 linemen, 1 thrower, 3 blitzers, 2 re-roll (save 25k)
(Config with only 1 re-roll OR only 3 positional players to have 3 re-roll does not seem prudent to me) |

Thanks. So no primary access to strength. Probably preferable in terms of balance.
(The blitzer vampire still the only one to have simultanly primary acces to A and S). |

Sad. At least the Lions could have prime access to S. |

High Elfs?
No, they don't. Their Blitzer has My Ball, which is the closest thing to a newish special rule |
