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

Thanks for listing that! Yeah, where were the Norse? Will there be any chance to add Slann to competitive in the future?

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
AFAIK ogres did win one at the time

Not sure about zons

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.
