Aren't gnomes one of the stronger stunty teams out there? At least if you play them right?

Gnomes are hard to score against so if you use Dwaven cannon's blunderbuss it is not too hard to score with gnomes. And often a single TD is enough.
Check my gnome team out for reference http://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=team&op=view&team_id=207951. But then again if your players get ejected early in the game you have no chance at all, so you do need a little luck also to win with gnomes.

Wouldn't it be far wiser to make a slow run down the field and only use the Blunderbuss for emergencies? That'd also increase the time spent scoring and thus reducing the amount of risks of your Weapons getting kicked out without having to stall (which is a rather silly thing to do in stunty in my oppinion).

well... that depends (everything does of course) on how you prefer to play. Often times getting the first TD under the belt is enough to win the match. I find it very hard to run the ball in with gnomes, as 5 first games and 0 TD clearly showed me. Using the blunderbuss is way easier IMO.

I got beat by Synn's Gnomes with my Pygmy team, but then again, he cheated.

Pfft, i love my gnomes, Theyve won about as many as lost, 2 dauntless block guys helps immensely.
With 2 cannons you can fire on gnome downfield risk free, then if he lands ok, fire the ball to him with the other cannon and score
Gnomes rock Smile
Then theres the small matter of the deathroller...

dont play khemri... oh, erm.. right...

Love those dauntless chappies, they are assets.
Other than that, chuck a few gnomes where theyre least expected, and sacrifice some poultry, or better yet, a small goat...

I'd guess never leaving guys next to his would be a good start. Bomb them to smitherines when they try to cage (and when they don't) - and don't forget that you have better average armour than him and Thick Skull, which isn't bad as KOs should happen quite often.

Spread his team out where you can and where you can't, blow them up! Take down his Mummies in grand style, yelling DAUNTLESS!!! at your screen - I'm positive that'll work...

Good luck

And what happens when a Gnome team plays another gnome team? Tied matches everytime?
