“The Plagues received the opening kick off but soon found themselves in trouble as the Bastardz applied pressure everywhere. Despite having 2 players knocked out, the Plagues almost scored just as the first half was about to run out, even after their ball carrier was pushed out of bounds.

The second half saw 10 Bastardz line up against 8 Plagues. Another KO to the Plagues saw their chances of winning slip further away as the Bastardz caged the ball and sent it upfield slowly.

As the Bastardz started to vastly outnumber the Plagues, their Thrower Nazdrog broke from the cage and ran forward. This was a costly mistake as Plagues lineman Ivano Grandi Piendi managed to make 2 dodges, then blitz Nazdrog and caused him a serious injury (1 dice pow after a 3+ and 2+ dodge with no rerolls!).

The Bastardz were however able to recover the ball and took just enough time in scoring to secure the win (delay of 1 turn).

Man, how unlucky to get that SI on my thrower, who of course also then got the MVP. The dice hate me LOL.”
