Ranked #1 at Cyanide's game
I've finally achieved the most coveted prize in all of Blood Bowl. The one thing that proves once and for all that I'm the greatest Blood Bowl player ever. That's right, I'm the #1 ranked coach in Cyanide's public league.
Sure, I might have played my games with a chaos team that has had a very high TV and faced opponents with several hundred TV less. And yes, those opponents had to pick their inducements from the minimal list Cyanide has implemented. Admittedly, I did build up my team before matchmaking was implemented so the tough early games for chaos were not counted. And true, I faced pretty much only chaos with the occasional dwarf and orc team so I was able to tailor my team to purely beat bashing teams. And I admit, I did get lucky with 2 ST 5 chaos warriors, and 4 +AG players.
But none of that matters because the quality of opposition is unlike anything I've ever seen. I've faced quality coach after quality coach, all of who challenged me to Blood Bowl thrillers of epic proportions. FUMBBL is truly dwarfed by the Blood Bowl giants at Cyanide's site.
Well, unless you discount the heroes who forgot to set up so that I can't crowdpush their player on turn 1. Or those who conceded on turn 2 because they had used their apo. As well as those who ignored the ball in favor of bashing and managed to lose 3-1 in spite of causing 8 casualties. Or the last champion I faced who conceded on turn 7 in the first half after rolling double skulls with his mino even though the score was 0-0 and he outnumbered me 10-6. But hey, only about a third of my wins were by concession.
Yes, I am truly the king of (BB) world.

Purplegoo: Yeah, I'm counting the days when Kalimar's client begins beta testing with developing teams. It's pretty much going to be bye-bye Cyanide then. :)

For shame! I had wondered why I hadnt seen you playing on fumbbl anymore. Stop the picking and come back to play some real games, you are too good for that crap. :)

Funny how DukeTyrion and Flix are in #3 and #4 spots respectively - fumbbl coaches ruling on Cyanide Bloodbowl as well :)

Ahem...
Your TEAM is ranked #1. Don't really see anything referring to COACH ranking in that page you linked.
So you're not only a filtyhy cherrypicker who needs to hurry back into real competition, but also a liar :D
Grats on the accomplishment by the way!

I don't really get why any decent fumbbl coach worth his salt (as three of the top four places are) would bother with Cyanide. Where's the fun in a 53ish win 1 defeat record. The games must be incredibly dull, especially as you yourself point out how poor most opponents are.

Malmir: It's LRB 5. I like playing Blood Bowl but I don't want to go back to LRB 4. I'm still having fun playing the game, otherwise I wouldn't be doing this. But yes, I'm very much looking forward to Kalimar's client and better opponents here.
Flix: Yeah, those numbers look about right. Nevertheless, there's always chance of a loss or tie, especially against high-level chaos who can cas half your team if they get lucky.

It's not that hard to go undefeated on Cyanide's game. As long as you have friends who have lots of teams and you can match your TV to theirs exactly, put in MM for 40 second min and max at the same time as your buddy does and get his concession. Do that 26 times and you will be ahead of the master at this tactic and his dishonorable dwarves as well as his undefeated Orcs and Chaos.
Well done on taking the lead from him! :)
