Do you want to see bloody goblins killing most of opponent players and winning all the matches ?

The second match was against DoctorMidnight, one of the best coaches in Fummbl.

When I'm rating a coach I look how they get on in Black Box, and with what Rosters.

Looks like you're bragging.
Or better say, it seems that you're saying "look how cool I am, I've won two games with a race that is notoriously difficult to win games with".
I used to take pride in my achievements, like this 10/0/0 team in 2016 stunty leeg or the cheesy 2016 'zons. The latter is a blackbox team, which is a fitting example because in blackbox you cannot pick your opponent to maximise your chances of win.
While winning is a part of the game, on the other side there's someone losing. Stats are nice, and a win rate is undoubtedly a stat than COULD tell about the ability to play a game, but they can be also annoying when displayed without context, as they MAY appear something more like

"Look how good I am".

And then? What are we talking about, here?

Goblins are one of the worst races in BloodBowl in terms of playability. This is not an opinion, it is a statistical certainty. At least in BlackBox, where you cannot cherry-pick, or at least not as obviously as in the game finder. Just look here.

Two games won make no difference to the fact that it's a rubbish team that you can only play for fun and if you don't care about the result. I used them a couple of times in the Trophy, then I trashed them and I don't think I'll ever use them again in my life.
(The only option for me is to play them in single race tournaments . I think there's one called XLF SXL XFF XXX ... FFX... boh... )

Its always nice to win with goblins. I just watched your game vs Norse.

Your game went well. Removing 3 players on turn 1 is always nice.

However you also allowed your opponent to blitz your ball carrier multiple times during the drive even though you were up on players. You also allowed your chainsaw to be blizted on turn 1. luckily this worked out for you.

You also fouled so much that you was forced to field your bomber on turn 8 on the first half and then sent off straight away.

Sometimes you learn a lot more from your losses. Smile
Entertaining game to watch anyway.

I know that I was very lucky to win 2 matches in a row.

I was sure to lose all my matches with goblins, because they play in blackbox division and I cannot choose my opponents.

All good - it's brave to take on gobs and cool to get a few wins - well done

Just yesterday, while reading this post, I was watching this match as a spectator.

It confirmed everything I say about the Goblins. Watch until the end.


Coaches who dare to play Goblins have my utmost respect. I would need a litre of Xanax and Gaviscom for every match.

For some, Blood Bowl is not just about winning.
Hopefully.
