sneaking & fouling is not tasteful behavior
Well, you picked two tackles for your wights.
Shd've gone Mighty Blow for one of them, bro. Quicker SPP and take downs.
With your Mummies and MB Wights, most teams would just get 2DB'ed repeatedly. AV Breaks, and blammo. Number advantage.
But ST4 Tackle before MB isn't too shabby.
You've improved Jacky. I hate to see it happening.
I must destroy the sapling before it grows into a full willow tree.

Ahem.
As another season draws to a close, we must not forget that Blood Bowl is a continually ever-changing game of meta. Failing today may not lead to decline. The team always grows from experience. We must always believe that our team can get better (Except Goblins and Vampires. Especially Khemri. Fuck that noise). It's a game of chance. Almost any action has a chance to fail, and almost any action has a chance to succeed. It's up to you to alter those outcomes to favor yours. And the opponent does the same, it's all down to coaching experience and risk management.
Bravado, is a double edged sword. To some people, a 2 GFI-1D Blitz with a rookie zombie just to apply pressure on a ball carrier would seem like an insane choice, but what if it succeeds? It happened in front of me. And I couldn't believe such a stupid move worked. One lightning bolt later, and I wasn't laughing when I was forced to tell the thrower to stand up, dodge out of TZ, make a pickup and complete a long pass. I held my breath when the catch rolled 1. Reroll. Pass completed. Phew. Fuck you, Tripjack. I fucked you.

Therein lies the 'risk tolerance' and the beauty of the game. There are no 100% guarantees. The first LOS bashing could lead to 3 Badly Hurts or just 2 pushes and 1 skull. (Fagsalom knows this.) The risky coaches may even risk AG3 dodges or early GFIs just to squeeze that extra mobility from their team. How far are you willing to push your luck?
Others won't even resort to 1D block / AG3 Dodges until there's no other options are left.
While some won't even hesitate to dare the opponent on 2GFI-Blitzes on their lone ball carrier.
You laugh and cry depending on the outcome, that's Blood Bowl.
Build your team, love your team. If you don't believe in your team, don't play it. Every SPP counts. A double can change the meta in many ways. Never be too afraid to change things up. If you think something is wrong, try fixing it. It's part of the fun. I cannot guarantee you Blood Bowl 2 will be a permanent fixture. I certainly won't get it.
But Blood Bowl? Let's keep playing it. It's fun. Don't complain of terrible AI when there are people out there who love to bash your skulls in. I don't know if there are any future seasons planned, but hit me up anytime on steam if you want another match.
