So in short, a failure on the design goal then. |
Absolutely. The Blitzers/Knights should have been the stars of the show. I think it's a shame that they didn't keep the super knights (8338 with GS) and nerf the squires somehow.
While JackassRampant's minmax style is possible, starting with 8 Block/Wrestle and a good amount of speed is actually a pretty strong roster.
Of course as they develop the Blitzers will rapidly become worthless without stats and/or doubles. |

Many cyanide coaches would tjen choose fumbbl instead. |
Pfft! We'll have Sigmarines before them |
A real shame. Neither are overpowered and as long as there is no legal issues I see no reason to not have them, at least in Ranked. |

Word.
Coaches that not like them can choose not to play and/or play against them then. |

yeah, that's them.
I wouldn't mind them joining fumbbl if the team was designed well but that is just plain crap. even the 4th edition gold roster was better and it was bland as hell. |

That roster is trash.
I'd prefer something with 4 Knights (5 4 3 9 Block, GS)
The regular human roster blows that out of the water. |

Exactly what I've been saying about the team the whole time. The big point of taking Brets over Empire is the knights and the Grail knights are supposed to be able to take on even chaos and blood knights and win.
So they should have some really out there stats like extra ST or AV, maybe something like juggernaut over block or even regen.
Instead they gain 1 decent and 1 poor skill and swap Strength access for passing access and an extra 20K cost.
Oh and a good skill for 1 knight is leader since their rerolls cost 70K. |

Be more likely for them to be in League only given the example of the Simyin. |

These BB2 twitch streams are hilarious...
DE teams that start with 2 assassins, and because stab is the most powerful skill in the game.
People talking about how great Brets are because... well, I dunno, because they are new I guess?
Some guy explaining how chaos has no long term potential because horns loses value as other teams get skills...
Holy god, how can anyone stand it? |

Just wait till you see coaches, even ones who are experienced with BB1, have no idea what to do with the excess money in their treasury. Since they can't keep cash above 150k without bloating their team value, most of them have taken to buying even more rerolls.
I saw a match yesterday between a Chaos team with 6 team rerolls (and a player with the pro skill), and an Orc team with 7 rerolls. |

They sure could have, but no one seems to be doing that. |
