#11 Harlequin – Dead (RIP)
“The first half was truly brutal, with an elf leaving the field for the KO or cas box every single turn for the first 6 turns. The second half, however, was much more successful for the elves.
I only have a couple of things to add to my opponent's match report. The first is that I didn't actually manage to score in the first half - my pass was intercepted by his wight. The second is that I actually managed to knock his ball carrier over three turns in a row after he left his cage open, but it bounced and was caught by one of his players (despite one or more tackle zones on them) the first two times. Grrr. Fortunately, the third time was the charm and it bounced into the hands of my remaining blitzer.
The undead were definitely playing at their best. Playing them felt like going up against a bunch of +AG elves who had also managed to grow RSC.
Fun game.”

A fun game against a fun coach with a great attitude.
I started on offence and badly hurt his Dirty Player on the first turn. I proceded to cage and push up slowly, KOing more and more players. On my turn 7, I scored rather than stalling after killing my opponent's Blitzer with the apothecary failing. It was 11 or 10 vs 4 at that stage, but I didn't have the heart to be that cruel.
My opponent got a quick snap on his 2 turn drive and managed to score to even it up at 1-1 at half time.
Second half was a nail biter. I was cocky, and played silly with my cage, allowing my opponent a chance to set up a blitz on my ball carrier if all the rolls came right. Wham, I lose the ball, but manage to catch it with another player after some lucky bounces.
I don't really do enough and my opponent got a one dice pow on my ball carrier again and this time he catches it and he sets up a score to take the lead leaving me with only 2 turns left in the game when he makes a 4+ and 2+ dodge to the endzone.
I start my final turn with a double skulls after being cocky again and trying a pick up and throw with a 5 SPP Zombie and failing to pick up the ball on turn 7. With no reroll left, I managed to clear a path, do a 2+ pick up, 2+ GFI, 3+ pass and 3+ catch to draw the game. Phew!!!

A fun game overall. I had fantastic luck early with my hits causing lots of KOs as I got a 5 or 6 man advantage after 7 turns. However, after the reload, my opponent also started to roll nicely as per his 69% luck.
Overall, a fun and fair game and the good and bad luck was shared by both coaches at different times of the match.”
