Season 13 coming to an end... the final run for glory!
Only five days left till season 13 of the Blackbox Trophy and the IRONDWARF Trophy will come to an end. So pack your stuff and get on the pitch, it is time for some last minute glory!
Since it is the first season for IDT I am going to focus on this and leave the BBT and Steel Gauntlet entries to the more experienced once.
This is only a preliminary view since there are still five days left for all those ambitious coaches out there to make a difference... and maybe that is the reason for this blog post: Tease them to act!
While Naama, fixii and spinball as coaches are outstanding there is also a tendency on rosters with Norse and Amazon, Dwarf, Orc, but also Necromantic Horror that got earned more than others.
EDIT: Sorry I forgot to mention before: The overall lead with 20! wins of Fermano with his Lizards is really an outstanding achievement (IMO).
The following overview shows the current roster leads
Naama and Elyod are leading the pack here... at least for those rosters I can evaluate. Ogre and Hafling have no entries in the Top100 and thus I cannot see who is leading there.
As said before: If you want to make a difference to this preliminary standing, get your teams ready and play some Blackbox games!
Cheers,
Chris

Yes, you are right. It seems the images are not yet approved...

Nice one. Well done to all the coaches that managed to get an IRONDWARF Trophy.

Good blog, you are certainly getting involved in the FUMBBL community : )
I made a last minute run for top spot but I'm afraid it was a match too far v's very well built and coached Zons just now https://fumbbl.com/p/match?id=4621207 so we sit uncomfortably in second place on 18 wins.
Worth noting IRONDWARF Top 10 currently has four Amazon teams. They are Over Powered at moment, Dodge spam needs to go (as does Dwarf Tackle spam).
Vamps obviously need a redesign (because they undermine the whole point of a positional game) but judging on these stats they are not quite so effective in first season at lower TV.

Vampires are just fine for the first season, they become a problem at higher TV.
Dwarfs are fine too - they don't win a crazy amount do they? Without tackle elves will have a field day against them.
Amazons are OP I think. Hit and Run is very powerful on an already powerful (and cheap) roster.

Fair 'enuff. I'd like a team redesign for Dwarf, not necessarily a nerf. Though I wouldn't mind if elves had little boost when the new ruleset lands.
This all-seeing, all-delivering ruleset will make Gaze a one attempt per team turn; similar to pass, blitz, foul etc. Multiple gaze breaks the game; regardless of vamps specific S1 win rate.
