Snappy, would you mind listing the results that you have reviewed? Eg, who were the 3 upsets according to your predictions?

Much as I would love for you to prove me wrong, I think you will have a real hard time winning your match. You got only 11 and only 2 have Dodge. It will be very hard to soak up all the damage from his hitters:

Str 5 Block Claw
Str 4 Block Claw Mighty Blow
Str 4 Block Mighty Blow
Str5 Block Piling On Mighty Blow
Beastman with Block, Claw, RSC

and two Dirty Players.

Sack your niggler and get a handicap at least. Sack the miss next game if you are ballsy (you got time to play recoveries after this match) and you get two handicaps to try and get something magic to save the match (eg Iron Man on a Str4 that can threaten to steal the ball all game).

Dodge is overrated anyway.

Agreed. Let's hope Naama underestimates me like Raginggoblin did.

I considered that, but the blitzer with the niggling would yield merely 1 handicap. I don't have the time to play many games before the actual cup begins, so he needs to serve important scrimage duty. If he'd give me 2 handicaps, I'd drop him in heartbeat, but this way I can't do that.

Two of my linemen are mercenaries, so I'm seriously undermanned after this game and can't really fire any players.

Naah, i never underestimate elves, since i know they are able to beat my team even when seriously undermanned Wink

And dropping the blitzer would be a bad idea imho. he would have 10 players to his next game (+the damage i do, and his winnings ofcourse). Rebuilding a DE team is pure hell, atleast if you take as much cas as me while playing them Razz

Boy, mmm....Brains has pulled some serious underdog victories. I recommend some kind of "most surprising victory" prize for this tournament, just for cases like this.

And incidentaly, mmmm....brains are the current frontrunners for the First Ever Snappy Dresser King Slayer Award of Excellence. A prestigious award if ever there was one (punch is served at the ceremony!)
