“And lo, the masses did gather, to hear the words of the unnamed prophet of Nuffle. And lo, the prophet did speaketh, 'There is only one way to glory, and that is the Clawpomb Way. Thou shoult only build Clawpomb teams if thou seekest the favor of Nuffle. For Nuffle will only shine on those who follow the Clawpomb way.' And the people chanted, 'Clawpomb, Clawpomb, Clawpomb' But lo, a lone voice cried out, and he said, 'Will this be the death of Blackbox?' And another voice answered, 'No, for there are many counters to the Clawpomb way, and you must find one and use it to defeat it. For Clawpomb is not OP'. And the prophet scowled at the second voice and shrieked, 'Heretic! How darest thou speaketh blasphemy! Dost thou not seek the favor of Nuffle? Thou shalt see what happens to the adherents of Clawpomb when they turn their back on Nuffle and think that they are responsible for their own succes!' And the prophet called out to the sky, and Nuffle heard the prophet, and he smote the heretic. And all his rerolls were taken away. And all his dice came up faels. And suddenly the first voice had hope, and he rallied his troops, and they marched down the field, and they scored! Then, still clinging to the hope that Nuffle had bestowed upon them, they rallied again on defense for one last kick off, and they kept the heretic from the endzone, and thus the game ended in a tie. And the heretic was chastened, and he appealed to Nuffle and the prophet, crying out, 'Nuffle, Nuffle, do not forsake your faithful adherent to Clawpomb. For I have seen the error of my ways, and never again shall I speak such blasphemies. For Clawpomb is the only true way of great Nuffle'. But the prophet looked troubled, for the seeds of doubt had been sewn, and the masses were confused. And the challenger walked away from the field, having given as good as he received. And so the saga continues, and Blackbox lives on...

This tie felt GOOD! Starting the game with 2 CAS in the first turn, and only 6 players remaning by turn 5 did not fill me with much hope, but I persevered and my luck turned. Still, my guys need more practice. We can't always depend on the dice.”
