“FUMBBL Cup round 5.
Nocturama was up against a DP-Undead-with-Count team for the 5th round of the FC. We brought a wizard, who wasn't really needed as it turned out. Handicaps against took out Loverman, our ST4 tackler, and made the tackle-mb Wight Buzzing.
The match played out exactly like anticipated. Bands and Stars received first, and started their fouling offense with the Count on the ball. Nocturama pressured the cage and tied down harmless Zombies here and there. Eventually the Count was open for a strip ball blitz, and the ball was knocked free. Nocturama stole it and ran away to score 1-0 in T6. Bands and Stars then tried for a 2-turn TD, which Undead aren't very good at, and lost the ball to Nocturama again. We made a lucky long bomb play to make it 2-0 by half-time.
Of course the game was already over here, so now it was just a matter of damage control for Nocturama. We started the 2nd half with removing one of the Mummies by foul, and continued focusing on the bashing. We were rather successful, although the Undead did get some hits in as well. Nocturama controlled the half completely however, and by the end there were only 3 Undead players left on the pitch. We chose not to score in T16 to avoid 3 more LOS blocks.
GG StrawberryKiss, it was a tough matchup for you. See you around.”
