Reposting season 3 sign ups info:

MauledbytheTigers is now accepting applications for /tg/ FUMBBL League III. There will be two divisions, as before.

In the Veterans league, as usual, this is completely open-weight to any returning /tg/ League teams (either from League I, League II or both), or anyone cuh-razee enough to want to enter a fresh team.

In the Rookies league, any coach may enter a fresh team, or a returning team from either previous /tg/ Leagues under 1200 Tournament Weight (which is different to Team Value).

As usual, players may only enter one team total.

To apply, PM Mauled on FUMBBL (user: MauledByTheTigers), stating your Team Name and which division they want to play in. Apply your team to the group, and ensure they are READY TO PLAY if not already, so you'll have to roll any skills or buy new players first.

He'll check your applications and either ACCEPT or REJECT you.

Also, Mauled will skullfuck any dropouts. They're a pain in the arse for everyone involved.

If you can't last ~6 weeks, don't apply. Stick to casual play.

What has Reddit to do with it? Sorry if its a stupid question, but I'm new to the thing. Which leads me to my next question: Where to start? I wanna get into BB and it seems that the Chaos Edition is the way to go for BB1. But is it still relevant or is everyone playing BB2 by now? I'm getting mixed impressions on that bit.
>>
>>46589497
Just try fumbbl. It is free and yes, you will lose some games. But that will happen anyway you play it.

Reddit is a thing because we are waiting for a game between the winners of our leagues to play a match and the Reddit people take forever to do anything.

>>46589953
Well, maybe saying I got it by accident was incorrect. Anyway, at the beginning of this team's life, this particular player in pic related stole quite a few MVPs that should have gone to more important players. While I was seriously annoyed when that occurred, he has not done so lately and I got a spot on one of the least relevant lists on the site. At least Ancient Mew is rather decent for a lineman and has the 2nd most SPP on the team above a thrower with a full Larson. He and said thrower also have not missed a game since the team's inception.

This probably gets asked often enough, but how slim do you deem the chances for GW throwing out another BB edition, this time set in the AoS universe?

Given the fact that its a one time buy, that they can't continue to make money off, I think they're slim enough. Do you think BB could survive long enough in the current TT climate, to estabslish itself?

I would say the human teams by GW are just about the best amongst all the human teams out there.

I'm a fairly new player, can someone please explain "stunty" to me?

Does it effectively remove tackle zones or what? Because those stunty little fucks just run right through every tackle zone they want. So far, not a enemy player has failed to do so.

>>46614584

Are they just taking a while to get things done?
>>
>>46614690
If only.
>>
>>46614677
Stunties always dodge on a +1 regardless of tackle zones
>>
>>46614743
Thanks! I wish the tooltips in the game were this on point.
>>
>>46614717

well, it IS Reddit. That said, I'm excited for season III. I predict no wins on my end, but I'm going to try to make every game count at least.
>>
>>46614893
Yea, so it still has to do with AG. In general the way AG works is you have to have your roll + your AG = 7 or higher. 1s always fail and 6s always succeed. Most AG actions like a dodge into an empty space, a pick up, or the shortest passes you add a +1 to your AG. For a human to pick up a ball he has 3 ag + 1 for pickup so he needs to roll a 3+ to pick the ball up. Something like leap has no modifier, so that is why a war dancer leaps on a 3+ (4ag + dice needs to =7+)

Since stunties ignore tackle zones when dodging they always get the +1 so a 3ag stunty will always dodge on a 3+ and a 4ag stunty will always dodge on a 2+.

Stunties have 2 negitives though. When ever a stunty passes you -1 from the pass roll and when ever a stunty rolls an injury roll you treat it like he has a niggle.

Who else feels sad when you kill a player on the other team, but aren't playing a necro team so you can't foul him with his own player in the second half ?

Fucking nigglers, always stealing my MVPs

>>46615384
>keeping a niggler

Why? Unless they are over 51 spp there is really no reason. It isn't like a -ma or -ag where you can kind of ignore it
>>
>>46615422
If my teams don't have at least one niggler each, the IJWs (injury justice warriors) will be all over my ass because of underrepresentation of the niggler minority
>>
>>46615422
That's a very stupid statement. There are many many scenarios in which you would keep a niggled player.
>>
>>46615777
Such as?
>>
>>46615777
You just can't trust those nigglers
The moment you lose sight of them the ball you worked so hard for is in their hands and they're already going for it

Little update on the 4chan vs. Reddit side of things.

The Reddit Champion is a fucking autist. He's PM'd their guy to say he's left FUMBBL because he doesn't particularly like the client.

So I've got in touch with the Nurgle guy who was runner-up. He's a tough cookie, beat him in turn 16 in the regular season, only for him to rape me in the play-offs.

I agree with keeping the 6-2 split; it keeps a goal for the Rookies to shoot for but still overall emphasizes it's role as a builder league.

With the season as short as it is, it's quite possible that a lucky but less-developed team could end up in playoff spot and get mulched by a high-TV Veteran team. With only 2 slots open this is less likely.
>>
So... Am i the only one who thinks seasons could be a bit longer? Like, a single/two match longer?

How often do you do these leagues? I just started playing the other day, and don't feel comfortable joining a league or even playing against other people yet(I only know the basic rules so far, and havent fiddled with the whole fummbl thing.)

I think I'm gonna play the CE for a bit until I feel comfortable with the game, but I'm interested in joining a league later on
>>
>>46626050
The league will probably last about 2,5 months. I'd say go for it in rookies, you will get raped in the first 2 weeks but by then you should have a good enough grasp to not stroke;.
>>
>>46615829
Any tournament or league. You would never fire at the point of being niggled because you don't know what your team is going to look like after the next game. You at least see what the team looks like first and then:

Generally niggled av9 big guys can be kept. Because they don't take many blocks or fail armour much, and because they are so expensive to replace anyway.

Other pieces with generally good durability or who don't fall over much. St4 pieces, blodgers, av9 in general. None of those are auto retire. They are always case by case decisions depending on player development, cash and general squad situation.

Ball carriers, one turners, and other pieces who have particular utility and don't necessarily get hit often or even play every drive. Dirty players and kickers for example, depending on how much line duty they may need to do.

Unquestionably nigglers are a liability. I would sack probably any unskilled niggled lineman. But most players with any development or value can be retained until nuffle claims them himself.
>>
>>46626050
I'd say around 2-3 month, assuming we still go by the rule of the one week per round schedule.

There are 6 pre-playoff rounds (which would result in around 6-7 weeks), followed by playoffs with 8 teams (resulting in 3-4 weeks playoffs [3 rounds], but they tend to roll in far faster than the usual season)

Overall, if you intend to join, the signups for season 3 are still open until around wednesday as Mauled stated here >>46614584
>>
>>46626983
Also, new seasons seem to start around 2-4 weeks after the previous season has finished

High Elves are rich nobility and have cool hats as well as lion warrior catchers.
"Pro" Elves are just poor elves, who can't make it to high elf teams. They have shitty mohawks and masks to cover their inbred faces.

>>46630224
How is that possible?
>>
>>46631643
he starts his turn and makes a turn 1 goal with throwing a halfling.
its time for opponents tur n1, but wait a blitz happens

ball is close enough to edge to be able to be picked up and scored.

halfling coach saw it as the gift of nuffle that it was and didnt hesitate and threw a couple of sixes.

bam your turn 1 opponent. how do you feel about a 2-0 handicap for halflings.
>>
>>46631787
Damn
>>
>>46631787
How did it end though?

I could easily see the other team score a TD in 1st half, then another quick TD in 2nd half where they receive, then another TD by destroying what remains of halfling team.
>>
>>46631787
the ball only lands on the field after a blitz.
So you cannot pick it up during your blitz
>>
>>46631017
almost correct

"Pro" elf teams are the pleb elves who didn't like being linemen on the glorious HE teams so they made their own pathetic and ignorant excuses for teams.
Ironically on a HE team, linemen get better treatment and armor, because every HE is a hero and potential game winner. While PE linemen are litterally just foder, plasmoids guide flat out says don't even bother with dodge on them and just give them fend. IMO elves shouldn't be treated like brett peasants
>>
>>46632568
my bad i remembered it wrong

the ball landed on goal, so he threw a halfling and placed it under the ball. so as soo as the game started he caught the ball.

Based on my recent box preformance I predict I will go 0/6/0

I have a team that is sitting at 1280 TV so I wanna wait until the TV range is pushed up. Also someone told me I would make a good Undead coach, I have not so far, but I've been trying them and also this way I get to pretend I am some weird southern zombie
>>
>>46638777
Fumbbl help has a one turn page that shows step by step how do it. However, MA 8 is kinda tricky since you need 3 pushes and AGI 3 Pass. In addition to multiple dodges.

Also Cknoor has a 2 turn touchdown guide on youtube. It's basically the same principles as elves but with Agi 3.

2 turn scores are pretty easy
there are two ways to do this either invade the enemy pitch with 3-4 receivers

or concentrate your whole team on one side and blitz through while creating a cage in which you pass into.
>>
>>46638886
Is it the pass play where he cages up down field with the catcher?

>>46638915
Usually I try the first way, but I feel like it may not be the best option.

Also what do you do for a team like undead with no pass skills?
>>
>>46638931
>>46638931

I guess so? I remember him failing the pass with the humans and going "LOL this is hard with humans, let's try with elves instead"

Undead should be the same as humans I guess? Push to one side and use ghouls' speed to create a screen that the opponent can't go around to block your scorer's path.

Although you might need more than 2 ghouls since rest of the team is slow.
>>
>>46638931
>Usually I try the first way, but I feel like it may not be the best option.
Being forced to do a 2 turn touchdown is never the best option

Also Undead do hand offs not passes also you never ever want your opponent to have a free shot against your ghouls.

Boring charts Azrael Senpai. Link replays and / or advertise when you are playing so we can spectate.
>>
>>46638777
1TT with anything below MA8 is very, very hard. It's rarely successful but understanding how to do it is still worthwhile as generally you don't lose a lot if you fail.

For humans and Undead, a quick 2 turn score involves setting up a cage/screen with a pass target that is in range to score.

This absolutely requires you go all in on deployment though, and you will be wrecked completely by a bad kickoff event like Blitz/Pitch Invasion/Perfect D (or even rock throw if it hits the right target), so as others have said it's best not to get into that situation in the first place.
>>
>>46630933
The small changes make for quite the big difference in practice.

8 AV makes a considerable long term difference over AV7 in terms of injuries sustained. Pro Elf teams see a frightening amount of player turnover.

Free NoS on Pro Elf also means they can pull off some serious bullshit when covered in tackle zones as well. Heaven help you if you ever have to face a +AG Pro Elf Catcher.

So you should stop trying to?

Always aim for controlling when you score. If you are the one dictating how long the opponent has to score and how long you can take to score, you will win the game.

Otherwise you're just relying on dumb luck situations like OTTs to win you your games.

You can't always control when you are being bashed. Sometimes the other guy breaks some armor your drive and you end up with only 6 guys to force the score for the first half with the rest in the Ko box
>>
>>46646301
Not the other anon, but sure, that should be the exception though.

Scoring in bb is not hard. Scoring when you want is the real skill of this game, and that means knowing how to 2 turn and knowing how to 8 turn.

For most races, 2 turning should be about attempting a cage on one sideline with a scorer in range of the end zone to hand off to. Depending on the kickoff you might need a pass to facilitate the handoff, but your aim definitely shouldn't be putting a guy in the end zone and passing it to them.

Why do people insist on playing BB2?

Yet people have a BB2 or bust mentality. Why? All you need is an emulation of the boardgame, I can understand if people don't want to sign up to Fumbbl, either because they need some degree of nice visuals or because they don't like Fumbbl's autistic rules, but the CE? The CE is perfectly fine to play BB on.

Even the group has only 15 fucking members. If that isn't a wake up call that BB2 just isn't there yet, then I don't know what it is. A CE group where people can actually organize actual seasons, with a much bigger playerbase would be more beneficial.

yes and 3/4 of them didn't want to participate in the league because they still wanted to learn how Blood Bowl works before joining. They never did.

Underworld are slightly above average.
>>
>>46649706

The BB2 is not in hiatus because of the last match. That last match is irrelevant because both teams are on suicide watch.

We are not starting the second season because I need to know how many of the 15 people will actually play in advance and only few have responded.

The league management in BB2 is retarded and i am guessing at least few of the people in the steam group have purchased the game for the sole purpose of shitposting about lizards.

Kek, the one thing I liked is that undead is good vs lizards. Which makes sense because you mark off the sauri with zombies and then bully whoever is left with the mummies. I am just disappointed because I figured you could do the zombie trick with necro and that ma8 frenzy claw would be a great piece to kill all lizards

the claw is on st3 players. so if you want to use that on a st4 lizard you are already looking at two assists for a reliable block, not even counting the chance you pushback into a -2d

also, re win stats, well in box that % you quote is extremely marginal, like 0.9% across all tv ranges. so don't read too much into stats

Has the league started yet? How do I join? also, How do I play over fumbble? I'm only experienced with BB2 on PC
>>
>>46654930
It already started.
Fumbbl has a quick start guide
And if you've only played BB2 so far, then maybe playing a bit more is for the best, since you'd only feed the seasoned players an easy win in this league anyway. They'd still encourage you to join though, for that very reason.
>>
>>46654930
League just started, so you missed your chance for now. Sorry pal, but there is next season. As for how to play fumbbl you need to take your first match slowly. The way it works is you make a team and either go to gamefinder or que for blackbox.
Ranked is both teams agreeing to a match.
Blackbox is regular matchmaking, but Fumbbl won't put you against a team super out of your range usually.
Once in the client you click on your dudes to move them around, but be careful. Doing a movement is permanent, no take backs. Also you have to declare what you are doing at the start of a player's movement.
>>
>>46654930
The sign ups litteralyl ended today I'm afraid

Fumbbl is free and although it takes a bit of getting used to, is fairly easy when you do.
