“When a match vs ogres begins with you having 29% luck or less through the first 5 turns, and the ogres get 80% or better through 5, you figure you're either a) ground beef or b) guaranteed to lose the game or c) both. He even got the ball in his agi 3 ogre's hands, was cruising to the endzone. However, at this point his luck ran out, as he went on a bone head binge the likes of which I've never seen, nor likely ever will again. It was absolutely insane the number of 1's he rolled! I rolled a lot of 1's myself, but when a cd team rolls a 1, they fail an action, but are still (if standing) able to impact the game around them. If half an ogre team rolls 1's regularly, effectively it becomes 11 vs 3 or 4. (Well, maybe 8 vs 4, as I had ko's who wouldn't wake up, but still...)

First score came when his agi 3 (holding the ball) fails his dodge away, leaving the ball as a giftwrapped present at my feet. (Of course, the dodge would not have been necessary had his blitzer not failed his bonehead check...) Line up again, he has 4 turns to equalize, but fails his ball pickup roll (and half the BH rolls...do we notice a trend here?). Superior "numbers" allow me to punch him off the ball enough to pick up and advance to score as time ran out, netting two new skills on hobgobs and extending our incredible winning streak to four games since team creation.

I don't know how I'm winning despite insane cas/ko rates against me, but I am just the same. Every time I tell myself I'll retire the team to create a new one of a different race, they convince me to keep them around for "one more game".

GG, Kuroyume, thx for keeping a relatively cheerful attitude about the ridiculousness of the situation.”
