another sidetrack from yours truly: anyone had the chance to field several human catchers in the test div yet? (nudge, nudge, saynomore, saynomore)

Dunenzed and me both fielded two yesterday!

The Blitzkrieg Brigade owes the HLP at least one sprint. I don't think I have time to complete it this season but I ll do my best.

Btw, do you have to complete a sprint to earn the badge for most cas inflicted?
We have 32 in 7 games and we finally field a dirty player again after being 'clean' way too long Wink

I think you've come to the wrong place if you're looking for sympathy about your next match Jimmy. Heck I played a dorf team like your's a few months back and it made me say "Thank God for Cpomb!" Wink

But well played both coaches. Classy moves at the death to take the win - I heard the Agility Monster's were looking for a stolen playbook?


Haha well as one of the more brutal [B]cpombers on the site it was just a bit of fun really Smile
Cheers dude, that was some fun Dwelfball!

UG! The human Predators score no problem on their drive.

The dwarves need quads to let them score in the first half, and a 31.6% chance on a passing play on Turn 16. S'no fair, man. S'no fair.

WimmyLucktastic.


Nearly good analysis. I needed a roughly 63% chance but added a 4+ pass cos I'm an idiot so it dropped to about 40%.

You are right about these though:

So I think we have a candidate for a new DYK entry.

Also, looks like all the action is in the Conference again this season. Check out the sprint by Elyoukey's Fist of the Unicorn. Dropping out the first two games that's a 10/1/1 run!

Definitely so, I will put him in!

So the Double is actually at risk?
But remember Elyoukey not only has to go better than 2/1/1 in its next four games, he has to provide a team logo too, otherwise no trophy! Smile

If you have been playing humans you are already in. Smile

The league ends at the end of Nov. The new one starts immediately after covering Dec/Jan.

A Sprint is 16 games so if you have time you could still do it. You cannot control which sprint your games count towards as you opponent's TV could be a factor. It could take more or fewer than 32 games to do the double. (Fewer due to the 1600-1700 sweet spot)

Conference level sprints are still super competitive. Premiership level sprints are also contested closely, however the number of participants are well off the peak seen in earlier seasons. Just completing a 16 game sprint at 1600+ in the box is an exercise in endurance and survival. So in my book every Premiership sprinter is a winner!

After beating the WMD's 3-0 playing up 440 TV (smug), these two Cobras blitzers rolls doubles!

What should Wallace and Escobar get?

\o/

Escobar seems a natural for jump up, but dodge is a strong option as well.

Wallace gets a little bit more interesting - I like the tactical options leap can offer, but that will shorten his lifespan. Sidestep might help for one turn TD attempts.

jump up for escobar.
for wallace leap would be pretty awesome - i have never had a leaping blitzer though dunenzed has. side step is a safe option if u want to use the double, but stand firm is pretty comparable. could ignore it for tackle or mb as well.

so
leap - tackle, guard/surehands
side step - fend/guard/sure hands
tackle - mb/guard

i like leap as it gives humans an option they dont normally have. humans are all about the options Very Happy

Ok. You guys seem to think along the same lines.

What's the thought behind JU over dodge though? Won't the piler get stun-fouled anyway?

and the leap and ss options both is ultimately both ball carrier development?

i think i'm holding back on the thrower now with three +AG players

Maybe against me the POer would get fouled but most people don't go out of their way to foul a POer just because he's prone.
