“Well, as Pirog said, Nuffle had plans for this game.
We both had AG4 nigglers. Mine came to play, and Pirog's didn't. The first turns looked bad, as 1 Bob was fouled to BH and another one was KO'd. I was quite short with players, and it looked like the game would became a hard one. Then on 2 turns it all changed. Pirog had some bad rolls and a turnover, and I got some lucky rolls. Companied with a good fireball I stealed the ball,
I decided to try to stall until the last turn, to prevent Pirog rolling more than once for 2 KO'd Bobs. The stalling was doable as Pirog rolled so poorly on blocks and gfi's. The main failure was a blitz with strip baller (1db). Despite the reroll he rolled pow/skull twice.
It looked like it's all over when I scored 2-0 on turn 14. Then Pirog scored TTM on turn 15. I said that he has still a chance if he gets blitz.
He did. No rerolls, so anything could have been possible. This time I managed to keep my lead.
Pirog rolled a lot of double skulls and pow/skulls with players without block. And the early moments of the 1st half really decided the game in my opinion. All my acts worked, and Pirog's not. I scored on his offensive drive, and in a game like this it is a huge step.
It kinda sucks when dice becomes too much of a factor. It's not fun when other coach is getting nuffled and other one is not at all. But this is part of the game. I need to remember this game when I get bad dice in future.
Thanks to Pirog for the game, hope you will be friends with Nuffle again ;)”

The Gothenburg Gitz are starting to lose their reputation. After their impressive win in the Middenheim Challenge they have lined up bad performances in the OCC tournaments and the Bloodweiser Cup turned out to be another fiasco.
The Blitzburgh Stealers were the opponents and the teams looked like they could offer a good match, with plenty of interesting players, both teams having high agility ball handlers and also hired shamans to try to break their opponents cages. But the Gitz have had rotten luck in their last tournaments and today would be another bad day.
Even before the match started the Gitz lost their edge when the skilled ball handler and basher Smirk da Exakutiona had to cancel due to his niggling injury. It's the second tournament in a row where the key player has dropped out and it always has catastrophic effects on the teams performance.
The Gitz won the kickoff and looked determined to win. They broke the impressive Stealer LOS and Spit managed to put the burly black orc Josh Burr out of commission (BH) with a well placed foul. The Stealers turned their attention on the star player Runn, but their gangfoul just left him stunned. When Smakk followed up with knocking Aaron Smith out things looked well indeed...but this was the last success the Gitz would see for a long time.
A series of events would ruin the match for the Gitz on an early stage. Bulk, who had a completly awful match, fractured his own leg in a pathetic attempt (missed 2d block despite reroll) at a charge forcing the team to use their apothecary on an early stage...but even worse, it also caused confusion amongst their ranks and opened up for a counter-assault from the Stealers. (early turn-over). A blast of fire suddenly erupted amongst the Gitz, hurling most of them to the ground and leaving some stunned. Only the ball carrier Lobb was left standing, but he was soon tackled down and the opponents could snatch up the ball.
The Gitz fought hard to try to stop them from scoring, but the extremly agile and elf like Chris Hope was almost unstoppable. Bulk embarassed himself by knocking himself out on another failed charge (double skull).
The Gitz defenses were in complete disarray and the normally so able bashers had a horrible time against the Stealers. Smakk was one example, when he failed crucial block attempts (double skull). At the same time Runn was hurled off the pitch by a Stealer black orc, spraining his groin and missing the rest of the match.
Smash did his best to try to get close to the ball carrier, but slipped and fell in the grass (failed GFI) which enabled Hope to score a TD in the final minute of the match.
For the second half things looked grim as the Gitz had lost Smirk due to his niggling injury, the star player Runn due to a crowd surf and had two of their black orcs knocked out in the dressing room. They could only field 10 of their players, including the little goblin Wikka, for their defense.
The Gitz had an awful blocking game even in the 2nd half (Koff rolled double skull on his 2d block despite reroll and Gharr failed his bonehead roll in a crucial position) which enabled the Stealers to line up their offensive charge. The beefed up lineman Snort was fouled out early (BH) which sapped the Gitz strength further. Their hope was to take the ball carrying Chris Hope out with their wizard, but the fireball didn't achieve anything more than stunning their troll. It opened up for a blitz by the strip ball specialist Tug, but not surprisingly he failed to knock the ball loose. (hit/block despite reroll). Hope came free again and scored the 2nd TD of the match for the Stealers.
Now, when all was lost (T7) the Gitz got their act together. Despite the Stealers charging their lines (got a Blitz) Gharr managed to hurl Wikka over the Stealer LOS to score a TD, which left them with a few seconds to bring the match to over time.
The Gitz emptied the last reserves to charge towards the ball (Got Blitz), but sadly the sprinting Tug failed to catch the ball. They made a desperate attempt at scoring in the last shivering seconds, but when Tug was tripped by a dive tackler it was definately over.

Thanks for the match, Kyyberi. You got extremly lucky in this one which you were honorable enough to admit. Good luck in round 2!”
