CR 150
I have finally got my CR back to 150 for the first time since joining Fumbbl. When I first joined the site the only version of the game I had played was the 2nd edition. So blocking dice, turnover rule and many of the rules were totally alien to me and because I jumped straight into ranked my CR rapidly dropped(it went down to 138).
A year and a half later I have reached 150 again. For many of you this will be no big deal. Lots of you are far above 150 and others think CR means nothing. But to me it feels like I have now got to grips with the game and whilst I have still lots more to learn and still make stupid(noob) mistakes I now feel that I have a decent chance against most opponents.
With only 10 more games to play til I reach the 500 mark I feel that I will have reached a couple of milestones at almost the same time.
Long live Bloodbowl and Fumbbl with it!!!

Grats.
I forget how long it took me to get past the 150 mark after my n00b plummet, but it was a while.
Basically, I think it was 3 simple things that got me back above "sub-noob" level:
1. Stop getting cherry-picked
2. Stop pixel hugging (mostly at least)
3. Stop taking silly risks
Again, grats on your milestone, and good luck getting to 160 now :)

Good to see I was the one who brought you up the 150CR! Looking forward for a revenge and take you down where you belong again. =P

Way to go.
I too dropped way down when I was a Noob... to CR133.something
Now I am at CR164.something and ranked in the top 300.
A little obsessive gaming goes a long way.
To continue your rise I suggest playing Races you are best with for awhile and playing lots of Ranked Tournaments.
For me this means NO Dwarves, Khemri, Chaos, Goblin, Fling, Amazon, Ogres or Necro teams for now. I suck with all of those rosters and will have to try learning them later.
In the Tournaments you will meet the top coaches and as long as you don't get PWND your CR will improve even in a loss.
Also playing head-to-head with the better coaches will teach you so much more about how to beat other coaches in ranked.

Well done!
Now your next mission should be join the BlackBox & keep a BWR of 150.
That will be another healthy milestone.

Well done boba! I myself am working towards lowering my coaching rating... to each his own, I suppose. ;)
