“Game starts, have 16 rats (counting the str 6 skaven RO star), and his dp niggles out. He receives, but fails to pick up the ball, easily in reach of my rats. Sounds like a good start, right?
Never underestimate my ability to screw things up...
Without tackle, he manages to ko my gutter, who remains ko rest of game. I get three rats ejected in consecutive turns trying to foul his str6 ogre, only to get three stuns. His diving tackle catcher prevents my gutter from scoring, ko'ing him in the process. Eight turns later, the humans score, while the rats are still wondering what the heck just happened...
Ok, fine, set up for a OTS chainpush, have a VLL gutter who needs only a smidgeon of help to score. He gets that and then some, won't even need to gfi! All he needs is the ball...which of course my agi5 gutter first can't pickup, then can't throw...
*sigh* Ok, fine, we'll do this the hard way. Set up on the right side of the pitch, he overcommits, and I'm able to streak around the left side instead for the tying score. Ensuing kickoff, blitz! Pity my kick rat is one of those ejected, causing the ball to be kicked deep instead of nice and recoverably shallow...no matter, we'll advance anyway...except the RO decides to fail his gfi, leaving me a smidgeon out of position to stop his recovery. But what's this? His str6 ogre rolls double skulls? And I have a gutter in range of the ball which has yet to be picked up?? Oh, happy day!!!
That is, until I first have to use a rr on the pickup in a tz, then fail the dodge w/dodge rr to score, MNG'ing myself in the process. Humans reset their formations, and my str6 drugged up RO w/break tackle is trying to make his presence felt in the middle of the field...until he again fails a gfi. By this point nearly my entire roster is either hurt or ko (most of the hurts being self-inflicted), and he's caging down the pitch, one last chance to stop him, using my agi3 RO...who gets stopped cold by that blasted diving tackle catcher. (Out of 5 dodge attempts away from him, not one was able to...) Advancing and stalling, zero chance to stop him. Fine, one last hurrah blitz on his catcher with my RO...triple POW!!! Rrroooaaarrr!!! Just a knockdown, though, and upon moving back out of Mighty Zug's grasp, he breaks the tackle...and promptly fails his gfi again. Combined with twin WA blitz fails first half, he's just had an awesome day...
Pathetic income despite good crowd; loss of FF; loss of only hope to get into the FC (timing just doesn't work to try for a QS); complete loss of face due to piss-poor play on my part...Guess we really didn't deserve to win this one. GL, Jan. If I'm going to lose, I hope I lose to the eventual winner of it all. At least then I can rephrase my performance to "the only one who could stop me was the FC champion himself..."”

The scheduled game between Cloggy's Doomy Diggers and AFK_Eagle's Weapon Masters lasted only three turns. Doomy Diggers' world famous Star Meuh diserted the game (along with the team's Troll and an hobgoblin) due to a Virus, so the chances for the Diggers to humiliate the rats where thin. As soon as a nasty foul injured another hobgoblin and the apo couldn't save him, coach Cloggy decided to concede. Good cash for the rats!
The Lavino Fighting Hellfishes were spectating the game, and so was their coach JanMattys. As soon as the referee called the game over, coach Jan marched to the skaven dugout and asked AFK_Eagle if he wanted to play the semifinal. The rats didn't seem tired, the Hellfishes were ready, and the audience was going wild: they wanted a damn game!
AFK_Eagle promptly agreed, and in a few minutes the semifinal was set up. The humans hired Mighty Zug (who was there to comment the game for cabalvision), while Headsplitter (already on the pitch) agreed to extend his contract with the Masters for another hour or two.
The first half saw the human thrower failing the very first pick up, and the rats tried their best to take advantage of this. They almost succeded, but the human defence proved stronger (thank God I have a diving tackler) and could score in turn 8. Luckily, the rats failed the OneTurnTD due to a missed throw, so the humans could end the first half leading 1-0 !!!
In the second half the Weapon Masters scored easily with a gutter runner, who had his path to TD cleared by the powerful action of both the team's RatOgre and Mr.Headsplitter.
After that the game was decided: the Hellfishes took all the remaining five turns to score, and quickly KOed half the skaven team. The Masters had one last chance to grab the ball and score, but it ended when AFK_Eagle rolled snake eyes on the last dodge.

Weapon Masters 1
And to the qualifier final we go!
GO HELLFISHES!
ps: Good game AFK_Elage. Rematch anytime!”
