“Well, I knew it had to happen eventually. My ban on dwarves can sadly not be enforced in the Blackbox division. F0rd as a skilled coach had little problems cutting me off on both offense and defense, despite the ogres being lucky in the first half.
It turned out to be exactly as boring as I always envision matches with dwarves to be, with my ogres getting a lot of opportunities to bash on the dwarves without ever causing any big results, with the dwarves having the usual margins on their side with succesful dodges and argue the ref calls on fouls. Obviously, since everyone else hates to play them, they are Nuffle's favourites and often gets that treatment.
Not that I blame the loss on luck in any way. F0rd outplayed me easily. But it sure didn't make the match more entertaining when his plans never got interrupted by the dice.
I even made a T16 gangfoul, something that happens perhaps once every 6 months, to try to encourage him to play other races, but to no surprise that didn't succeed either. Who needs an apo when playing dwarves, right?
You should be ashamed of yourself, F0rd. You are way too skilled to play dwarves :P”
