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. Razz

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 Very Happy

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.

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
