Quest of Atonement
My Dark Elf team Aesthetic Umbrae had two of their challenges turned down last week because of being an elf-balling team. Looking at their stats, I can do nothing but agree. Those are silly, shameful stats.
This got me thinking. I didn’t actively turn them into elf-ballers. It just happened, part of it because DE and WE are greatly over-represented at TR 250+ where Umbrae have played most of their games. But I don’t want to have a pure elf-balling team, no matter the reasons. Action must be taken.
Consequently, Aesthetic Umbrae have decided to go on a Quest of Atonement. They vow not to play another elf team as long as an elf team is their most frequent opponent.
We hope that others will join us in this quest.

As one of the 2 who turned down your challenge (with my wood elves iirc), all i can say is good on you!
Elf teams that almost exclusively play against other elves destroy the balance of the league. Actively avoiding that is one step in the right direction! :-)

Interesting that while you are looking at playing humans, norse and maybe amazon, you have been able to play how many games ? 180+ and never daring to play a single dwarf team? talk about balance?

@ Deathheart: What part of Quest of Atonement did you not understand? Thank you for your constructive critisism.
