I'm glad that it is adding to the experience for you guys. After round one I will list notable games that were the most exciting and competitive to watch. Ruckman United New Middenheim v. Suave and Soulless is still my favorite. |

a bit of accounting!!
at round 1 we have:
12 Orc
11 Tomb Kings (MKGA!)
9 Dwarf
8 Human
7 Dark Elf
7 Necromantic Horror
7 Nurgle (!!!)
6 Vampire
6 Wood Elf
5 Chaos Dwarf
5 Shambling Undead
5 Skaven
5 Snotling
5 Underworld Denizens
4 Chaos Chosen
4 Ogre
3 Amazon
3 Elven Union
3 Goblin
3 High Elf
2 Black Orc
2 Halfling
2 Khorne
2 Lizardmen
1 Old World Alliance
No teams to represent Chaos Renegades, Imperial Nobility and, surprisingly, Norse
1 nurgle and 1 orc mirror matches
There might be some error bars on this as I did a recount via in-page search and 3 coaches have already dropped from the group already
I'll do a recount once each round is completed
Edit: Forlorn in bold |

I really hope that GW will reintroduce them then, but that is probably a longshot and it would be after all the teams of legend are reintroduced.
Edit: I probably should note that there are 40 games of round 1 in the playlist now as well. Poor Slann. |

It's fascinating and novel to see someone commentate a game I'm in, thanks for doing this
E43 and E44 have both got the same title on youtube currently, E44 should be What's Up Danger v. Swisslings |

Good catch at Spookeh, I can fix that quick. Yeah, its like the order of operations you posted a day or so ago really made the game stable for you to the point that the win was less about mashing dice than most round 1 winners including myself to be honest. My order of operations although on a good path were not tightened enough to get past the second round. I really like the Skaven team I lost to, so I can only hope he goes far in the tournament. |

Didn't Amazons win a major at some point, or are they re-forlorned because of the roster changes? |

Any major won in the LRB4 era or prior isn't counted

Curiosity drove me to watch the game I took part in.. and fair play really good commentary @gridironman
Of course I’d love the ‘right to reply’ as to why I made some choices, but regardless I thought you called it well.
Covering all the games does seem a big task. As long as you’re enjoying it it is ok, though please don’t feel any pressure to be completist about it, ‘tis all just a bit of daft fun : )
Thanks |

I will check to see if all comments are allowed--which team are you so I can fix that. |
