“Not much to do about games like this. I messed up seriously in the first turns while receiving, when it slipped my mind how effective frenzy can be. I promptly lost the ball, and after that it was mainly downhill. I didn't have any extreme, continuous bad luck, but when it struck, it was during key moments of the game.

My opponent seemed to have about average success with rolls on the pitch, maybe a little above, but he made some insane armour-rolls (even when taking AV 7 into account) and I had one BH and SI rather quickly. In addition to that, he did a whole lot of KOs per half, and at the end of second I was down to 4-5 players on the pitch. Myself, I inflicted no casualties, and one measly KO at the end of the game.

Toward the very end, with a total of three turns to play, it was 2-2, and the game could have swung either way, which is, I suppose, what stings the most. I had an opportunity for a free run to the endzone with a Wardancer, but rolled a 1 and failed to pick up the ball. In his subsequent and last turn, Desdinova picks up the ball, dodges away, goes for it twice, passes, receives and scores. Not *extremely* difficult, but hardly easy either, especially without rerolls.
With the number of players I had, I'd been satisfied if I'd at least gotten a draw out of it there, but this one was heavy. Still, I guess it's only a matter of time between games that you will lose no matter what you do due to you having bad rolls or your opponent good ones.”
