The GW team who made bloodbowl is in contact with the cyanide people so if ballance changes have been made its probably because of them. Black orc is one of those positionals that are insanely well priced so its not really suprising theyd get a nerf.

If it was a fresh team he probably quit because he was going to restart. Losing that expencive of a player with no real SPP gained means youre better off restarting.

It does. Problem is multiple block doesent work while blitzing so its rare youll get a chance to double stab outside the LoS.

Kick dirty player or leader dirty player are terrible skill combos. You want the dirty player to be as disposable as possible and giving highly important skills on a fouler is just a waste of TV. Usually I just fire my dirty players after the second level.

I just meant its a fine choice if you want to pray on the chance that one day MB will actually do something. The skill choice does make me sperg out since in serious play its kind of useless. Its a spiteful and pointless skill to pick unless youre actually turning the dancer into a dedicated killer. Which requires hoping for more dubs since MB alone isnt that amazing.

Block is more useful on a rat ogre but if you get a second set of dubs itd be a pretty nice choice if dodge isnt to your liking. One big problem with tentacles is that the player needs to be secure enough that a -2db isnt a tempting choice to do. or a 2db even.

If you fail a dodge while using break tackle you can reroll it using the dodge skill.

Fat Samurai posted:Raising the prices of the Blitzer kinda makes all those teams invalid, that's the problem. If you don't want to start with Goblins in the team (which I'm not brave enough to do), you have to either sacrifice a reroll or a blitzer, and wait 3-4 matches until you have what you could get after only one match in the previous version (4 Blitzers, 3 RRs and an apothecary). I find it funny you think less orc players in this world is a bad thing.

You arent in any hurry so if they do some weird mega defence then staying back until they actually pressure the ball carrier is a valid tactic. If you're aiming for a 2 turn touchdown but you cant get the ball through on turn 2 theres no reason to rush it if the ball isnt in any danger.

It's not suprising they start strong. They have almost as much blockish skills as norse do. The problem I imagine is like with any other high skill low stat team is that once the high stat teams get levels the brets will start to under perform.

Kooriken posted:Guys stop me I just rolled my second opportunity to take +AG on a Dwarf Runner in as many levels. I took the first one because hey, having a Dwelf is awesome, right? Now I have the opportunity to have a 5 Agility Dwarf and I know I should probably pick a skill but...5 Agility Dwarf. AG5 means you can dodge into one tackle zone and it'd still be +2 roll. That means stopping him from scoring if he gets into scoring distance is a really annoying thing to do.

3 rerolls should be enough depending on how you play for most good teams. 4 rerolls if you like to play dangerous. Once you get into higher team value and you have all the skills you need you can do fine with just 2 depending on team.

Parkingtigers posted:Alright, good stuffs, thanks for the info and clarifications. Try hard orcs dont buy goblins or trolls. The troll is basically the worst TTM player in the entire game. Flings have the best TTM since the tree actually has a pretty decent chance to throw the fling. If you really want that rare one turn touchdown chance then buy the troll and goblin though. But its still a pretty low chance of working.

I'd rather play against elves than dwarfs considering I can get spp from murdering the elves. Dwarfs give you poo poo for cas spp and probably wont let you score more than once either.

Main problem with diving tackle on dwarfs is their main weakness is other stronger bash teams which diving tackle doesent help with at all. Dwarfs have a pretty strong defence against elves already so its not that nececary. Though I've always played around with the idea of giving diving tackle to the orc troll or black orc since they dont really need that much bash help.

Failing a ttm landing with a non-ball carrying goblin doesent cause a turnover. I think if a goblin lands on a player both roll for armor to see if it breaks. Does not cause a turnover either unless the player the goblin landed on was your own.

Splode posted:Is there much point to agi 5, if agi 4 generally means 2+ rolls on nearly everything already? There are some edge cases where ag5 is stupidly good. An unmodified agility roll at ag4 is just a +3 roll but at ag5 its +2. Basically any skill that uses unmodified agility rolls become better at ag5. Skills that use unmodified agility rolls are: leap, hypnotic gaze and TTM landings. So basically wardancers really want it because they start with leap, vampires want it because they can hypnotize at a +2 roll and any stunty player thats used for one turn touchdowns with TTM wants it for that +2 landing. Personally I also take it on fast players too since as it's been said, its hard to lockdown an ag5 players since they can still do +2 dodge rolls into one tacklezone. Normal mv6 elf linos I wouldnt take it on probably but anything thats 7 or above movement then I'd definitely take it. AG5 throwers are also nice if thats your thing

From my experience it works pretty well too, if youre playing elves and have too much gold you're either lucky, cherry picking matches or playing in a babby no bash league. Orcs and dwarfs on the other hand never seem to have any problems with gold managment.

Muscle Tracer posted:Does BB2 single player still do that team where it matches your fresh team against a 1300 TV comp team? That was a fun decision. The campaign basically is a tutorial at first and then slowly lets you finally play the game proper after like 4 or 6 games. It gives you permanent star players as you go so its pretty hard to lose. I beat the campaign and never let the AI score even once.

You dont want the chainsaw to live long anyway. Levels just bloat it since there arent many useful skills that would justify the TV increase on it. Of the stunty teams i dont really like goblins. They have good potential but they also require a lot of dubs farming to get that potential and ultimatly the secret weapons arent that super amazing. Bombers become amazing with HMP. Ball and chain become amazing each dubs they get. First dubs is almost nececary since without block a -2db can knock them out way too easily. Trolls dont really need dubs but having block to reduce the chance of ending your turn on a both down is nice.
