It is on!

Paper Armour Dolls vs Cloudpunks

Will it AndyDavo win the 3rd championship in a row, or will Ice Cream Emperor finally liberate the f13 League from this bloodthirsty monster?

I'm going with Andy - he won't make the same mistakes I did vs the Cloudpunks.

Do you believe in me hard enough to give me two +1 str guard block linesmen, and doubles on 80% of my remaining players?

Ha ha ha. Anyways, what's your schedule like, Andy? I believe we are 7 or 8 hours apart, so it might be easiest to wait until the weekend since I am theoretically fairly busy this week -- but I am also often up at odd hours, so will keep an eye on Steam in case we can squeeze it in somewhere.

Cool, well hopefully we will bump into each other on steam. I am working this weekend so i doubt that this will be an option. I am off work wednesday and thursday, so you could easily catch me on my daytime either day.

So Andy and I played the Final this morning/evening (depending on your time zone) -- or at least, we played all the way through 11 increasingly tense turns to a 0-0 draw... and then Andy's machine died.

To be fair, my wizard had just failed an absolutely 'now or never' Lightning Bolt on his ball carrier, who was in scoring position, and I was in the middle of plotting my second last-ditch-Leap-and-blitz of the drive, so a dark elf score was quite likely. Andy had also managed to injure both my Leader-Thrower and my star Catcher in the first half. Then again if my blitz had worked I had an outside chance of throwing downfield to the legendary Eldril Sidewinder for a score.

Very fun game and hopefully the next one will be as close, once FALCONEER RESETS THE GAME PLEASE.


Edit to add: the rematch is tentatively scheduled for Monday.

no, it is being played in 5hours time. I can stream using livestream via Xfire if people want to watch. Can also give details of a vent server if people wish to gather and talk about the game in real time? Icecream will be on vent too i believe.

I'm tempted to ban Andy from the League on false doping accusations. Like "he's suspended until the inquest is over!" which is around Season #11...

You know I would like to see how Andy gets on playing a "comedy" team like halflings but I can imagine the gnashing and wailing of teeth if he won the next season with a bunch of Hobbit rejects.

Yeah I just think if you win 3 in a row with one team, it's probably time to give the rest of us a shot right?  Oh ho ho ho. Reallllly?

Keep in mind I've yet to win a game.

Didn't Andy create a whole new team this season specifically because of that? And still win with it?

He created his current team the previous season, after somehow managing to win with a crippled 900-1200 TV dark elf team. His current team is just insane in terms of skill-up rolls -- two +1 strength guard linesmen, a +1 agi witch elf, two more guard blitzers (one with +1 agi as well) and a MB piece or two to top it off. All that Guard on the bashiest elf side is brutal. And of course all this just tends to amplify his edge in terms of coaching ability.

Then again the first time we played (with the DC) was a much closer game. The team's certainly not unbeatable; it's Blood Bowl after all.

Nah, this team is the same one that won it last season, which he imported from the Feeder League.

And as ICE wrote, those +STR guard line elves are unbelievably awesome.

I don't see what's so exciting about a couple +str linemen.  why so serious?

Guess I will have to make the final dwarf/orc decision soon.

My hopes were high on the Khemri causing carnage to such monstrosities.  Then my team died.  Plus, I didn't get in the playoffs.

If there is a general feeling that i should re roll, then I will. I think I would be happy to change, but to what?

Khemri? Amazons?  or maybe Undead? - their not featured much
