12/29/2016 - Shydeon Update
Well I know this is only one game but I am not able to play more. I mean I go to rank the teams are all way too high tv to even consider playing and black box well I am simply not ready as my first game shown me. I am also severely demoralize at the moment since the last four games I did not get a single win. I mean I try to find games sure but I always think should I even be playing when I feel crushed moral wise? It seems like it would cause more damage to my team when I play with this over my head. I think I either need a break or a miracle win which I think its the break the more likely to happen. I mean two days 1 game since the game finder is just 1700 tv teams almost at this point I cannot find any team that I would consider a fair match so I do not play them. I am sorry to say but when you need a bunch of inducement to get even I will not do it. I know I played team weaker then me but they challenged me is the thing I never sent the challenge to them and even then I manage to lose those games too. Anyway I just cannot raise my moral enough to play without risking huge mistakes.
(Edit note: Just checked technically more then that since last win was a concede to make things worst)

Game 1 Chaos Box - Note
This start was awful I miss plays not knowing wild animal would cancel my blitz for the turn and that was turn one fail then turn two I lost one my beast men trying to dodge trip and lost a ag. Not starting to well. Turn three something good happen for me but will most likely still not be enough to win the match up against lizardmen since I cannot get to the skinks and even i would reach them I need to roll pow which make me think don't go for win at this point. He stalled to turn 8 but nearly could not score since I did get to the ball carrier but stunty dodgers what you expect. That possession though ended with 2 injuries each side and a knock out for him so im not sure if its bad or good.
2nd Half starts horribly that's all i can say does not really get better either. This game made me say same thing as I already knew I am not ready for black box hell not even ready for rank to be quite honest the way I been losing every game lately. After this game I am on a 4 game winless streak which really is not helping moral.

Get back on the horse again. I am 1500+ games, and still learning :D
I recently had a streak like yours, only 10 or 15 games (it felt like that, could be less). Its shit, nothing else to say.
Maybe take a few days where you spectate games instead of play yourself :)

Lizardmen are way better than starting Chaos, so don't get disheartened.
By the way Chaos sucks early and gets better once you build some Claw, Mighty blow, Piling On players.
If you really want to learn to play some coaches can help you, if you don't want to learn then you are bound to be frustrated over and over again.

Ignore Matt, while new chaos does suck, clawpomb sucks too if your not able to play properly. Watch other people play and roll less dice overall, but when you have to roll dice make sure its easier rolls.

I am planning on going non Pile on since its getting nerfed for 1 and 2 I do not want to be that ass that does it left right and center. I played against it a few time and its not fun for the opponent and I cannot see it as fun for the person that does use it either. Claw and Mighty blow i might on most but not sure.... I mean my first skill is Mighty blow on the guy that leveled but that is to level up and I am waiting for my first double to get a carrier which im thinking going Blodge, Twin Head and extra arm. I know its ambitious amount of stuff but that is my plan if I can ever get a double

I would suggest starting with block in the future. Because it'll provide more utility for you in the mean time before you grab MB. A both down with mb is still a turn over for you. Just my opinion. Keep it up man. You'll get better.

Blood Bowl is a complicated game.
Moreover it is mostly played by mature and experienced people here (Cyanide main open league is more forgiving on this side).
Also it can be hard to notice the most important factor between luck or skill when losing/winning, especially when beginning.
My point of view is if that the result of the games are mostly determined by skill (and race/match-up), otherwise it would not have coaches with 75+win%.
Playing power roster like undead, amazons, undead, lizards could help at the beginning.
Also try to find little things something to enjoy/improve in the game when you feel you are losing it and do not be obsessed by the losses.
Bottom line you should not be mad when you loose because it's expected and the learning curve is stiff.
I think you should not start a game if you can't play stress-free (or at least with a level of stress at the minimum).

As an aside, your roster is sub-optimal, you should play with 4 Chaos Warriors, 7 Beastmen, 3 rrs. No Minotaur, too expensive and unreliable.

Matt the team is no warrior beastmen. I mention this last update. It is not supposed to be your generic Chaos team
Posted by MattDakka on 2016-12-31 05:17:52
I knew that. My point is that your roster is weaker than the usual Chaos team roster with 4 Chaos Warriors, 7 Beastmen, 3 rrs so don't be disappointed when you lose.
