Blitz allows us to put some pressure on them, in spite of a long kick. Only some. When we get rid of two of them, and they only one of ours, we feel this might be going our way, but they fight back with some amazing dodges (two succesful against diving tackle) and stuns. Very close game, where both coaches play well. Luck goes both ways too, I would say, they pull of agile stuff like 5+ pickups, while we are luckier breaking their armour. Turn 5 this changes when they get rid of three of our players - we cant do much and they stall until turn8 before scoring.
Second half. Both teams fielding 11. They stop four (4!) out of our blocks first turn with FA. Second turn and FA continues along with arrows. I turn to Troll and onedicers - that seems to work. They soon almost get the ball, partly since our troll is extremely stupid this game. I kill one of my own blitzers with a failed block. Apo works. They get the ball with another elfish pickup. We finally get their ag4 player out and recover the ball. We are then quite lucky - withstanding 2 twodiceblitzes (both rerolled) - and can score t8.

Fun game and even game - love even games!. Great positioning of tentacle and guard players by Vicius made life really hard for me. Third game between us, third game that has ended 1-1! Already looking forward to the fourth.”
