Just watched the replay, quite the game. Very Happy Burn Notice seem to have recovered from their bad streak and back in trim, slim Major winning shape.

Rise Like a Phoenix II and the Tractor Boys will be competing for the honour of facing them in the Quarter final. Game is scheduled for Monday, 21.00 bbtime.

BLASENSKY'S BLOG FROM THE BLACK CUP QUARTER FINALS

Hello there Blood Bowl fans, it's your man Blasensky bringing you the hottest news from this year's Black Cup! First of all, to those who think I sold out accepting a traineeship with Milford, I'll have you know that the greedy old bugger doesn't pay me a single Crown. "The reputation is enough", he says. Well. I hear he's already in Lustria, having a warm up beach party with the Fumbbl admins, while yours truly almost ended up on the slave market of Zhar Naggrund. I was only able to talk my way out of it because the slaver was a huge Retired Bullfighters fan and I promised him VIP tickets… needless to say I don't get any VIP tickets from anyone, and what slim expense budget Milford gave me was stolen the first night in town, so let's just hope the bloke never finds me again.

Anyway, to Blood Bowl! It's been quite the interesting tourney so far, despite the low spectator turn-out. And the outcome has not been what most people expected! In the round of the final 8 we have: NO Chaos. NO Nurgle. TWO Elven teams (Wood and High respectively). TWO Undead teams, and some Vampires, dreaming the dream of Unforlorning their races. Some Skaven, some Dwarves. And the local heroes upon whom all the hopes of the Chaos Dwarf fans now rest, the aforementioned Retired Bullfighters. But let's take a look at each of the quarter finals.

The Frozen Throne Masters have somehow managed to get to the quarter final by winning only two games. Rumours of dark magic and large coffers of gold are certainly just that, rumours, aren't they? Being a rather plain Undead team, they are clearly the underdog against the Bullfighters, who triumphed over this year's Crown of Sands champion Cpomb on their way to the quarter finals and have to be rated top favourite to win the Black Cup at this point. These Chaos Dwarves are still in good fighting shape and seem to be determined to go all the way. With the crowd supporting them like mad, I predict there will be no surprises in this match, and probably not in the next one either.

Their opponent will be determined in an unlikely match. Defying all odds and experts, port macquaire warhammers have beaten the StudMenDudeBros, one of the meanest Chaos teams in the tourney. These Death Roller fielding Dwarves certainly have the spirit, but will their luck stay true to them for one more game? With their super Runner missing the game, it will be very tough indeed against the second Undead team still in the competition, Brain Gobbler. These Undead have proven that they can play a good tactical game and can deal a world of hurt. They may be missing one of their killer Wights but they've still got a lot going for them, even against Dwarf armour. It's going to be a close match but I say the Undead will triumph, to lose to the Bullfighters in the semi.

Next up we have Wood Elves vs. Vampires. What's this? Isn't this supposed to be a Box tourney? Well Box fans, certainly by now you've heard of the New Vamps on the Blood. They've clearly laid their claim to Major glory, making one final already this year and throwing two highly rated Nurgle teams out of this Black Cup. Three more good games they need, three games in which they don't implode. Among all the teams remaining in the competition, they are probably the ones who have the best chance to stop the Bullfighters. But first they've got to get past Sticky Green BBL. Wood Elves vs. Vampires and the Vampires don't have a Sure Handed ball carrier. No ball is going to be safe. This is going to be a fast paced, high scoring match with a lot of twists and turns. Turnovers and Armour Rolls are going to decide this one. My gut says Nuffle will not smile on the Vamps this time. Sticky Green take it home in Overtime.

Last not least there are Burn Notice, once upon a time a Wheel of Chaos champion, who have been down on their luck for some years but have come back in trim and slim winner's shape for this Black Cup. Fielding no Rat Ogre since the legendary Sam Axe retired, no natural one-turner or other freak Gutter Runners (though two of them have Horns), they will be relying on inducements and CPOMB to bring back the glory of olde days. Which might just be enough against Rise Like a Phoenix II. These High Elves have beaten Fumbbl's most formidable player on their way to this quarter final, but are down to an 11 elf squad. They are trusting in Blodge and hoping for the Cas and Snakes to go their way, but truth be told you've got to bet on coach Azure's experience in the Majors here to see the Rats through to the semi, and onwards to the final.

So there it is. I'm betting hope will be forlorn for the Forlorn Races this time. The final is going to be a Chaos Dwarf vs. Skaven classic and the Bullfighters will smash Burn Notice to pieces. It's still going to be close but I say the local heroes take the trophy home. Their momentum is just too big, it will carry them all the way.

And then I'll have to hope that I can somehow jump the Fumbbl admin coach to take me back to Altdorf. Anybody know which tavern Dalfort is staying in?
