“The Terrors started strongly and instead of their usual cage play, scored a very quick TD straight up the middle. From there it was all Eternal Darkness who made dodge after dodge, long passes, and even got a blitz. The rain in the second half didn't help the Terror cause either, but the game was lost in the first half when the Terrors chose to play exciting Bloodbowl rather than the usual tight Chaos Dwarf play style.
By scoring early, the Terrors gave their very agile and skilled opponents plenty of time to score, and then by attempting a risky long pass instead of holding onto the ball, the Terrors allowed the Darkness to recover the ball and score a difficult long pass TD themselves to take a 2-1 lead into the half.
With the Darkness starting in offence in the second half, the best the Terrors could hope for was a draw, but they hardly touched the ball at all for the rest of the match.

What a farce that game ended up being!
I can't believe my luck was 58% as I failed many AG 3 dodges, Str 5 Break Tackle dodges, Sure Feet rerolls, failed a GFI, failed the reroll and killed my own player (surprisingly the Apoth worked), failed to pick up the ball many times, failed to get a pow or dodge/pow (on two dice a 55% chance to get one of the other on one of the dice or both) on 6 out of 7? hits on his AV6 Witch Elf.
My opponent however did not fail a dodge (not including rerolled ones) until turn 7 second half. Whilst he did fall over once on a GFI and lost the ball, it was in the rain and I needed a 5 to pick up the ball and it was easy for him to recover it.
Then to rub salt into the injury, he got a Blitz as well LOL.
Anyways, it was fun for part of the game, but I have had plenty of fun games against Gitzbang in the past and maimed a few of his players so I was happy to be on the end of his great luck and my crappo luck this time. Just THIS time Gitzbang ;P ”
