<b>* Be good sports - crush all BB-Sissies *</b> Here to learn? Don't bother to challenge us if not. <b>We don't want to play experienced coaches nor those not willing to learn.</b> We won't challenge anyone. My other Academy Teams: <form name="Menu1"><p><select name="Link" size="1"> <option value="http://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=team&op=view&team_id=491225"> Human: Holiday Party</option> <option value="http://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=team&op=view&team_id=535872">[A]Chaos Dwarfs: [A]-Team</option> </select><input type="button" value="Los" onClick="window.location=document.Menu1.Link.options[document.Menu1.Link.options.selectedIndex].value;"></p></form> <b>Nebenbei:</b> Deutsch ist meine Muttersprache. <b>Want to learn Bloodbowl? I recommend learning BB "like in a tourney"</b> That especially excludes the option to dodge opponents (races or "DP-teams" or anything). First basics- then the daring stuff. It won't help playing "nice and friendly" games only to be utterly crushed in R afterwards. Of course you should not take every challenge anytime. For a start some easy matchups are nice to learn the basics. Maybe spectate a Ranked/Blackbox game or two. Don't take [A] too seriously anyway- try out! <b>You got a lot of tabletop experience?</b> It's the same game- just play some games in A to know the client (and help real beginners) then start R or B. <b>For starters</b> just play. Then read. The help section is quite good. Then ask questions before playing, while playing and after having played- most ppl won't hate you as long as you give them enough time to breath and possibly answer. While doing so learn to distinguish how "brutal" and "agile" teams really are. To be able to determine the strengths and weaknesses of a team by it's roster (~a page like this) is essential (especially in Ranked). <b>Golden Rule: Save things first!</b> Do stuff in order of security. Every turn. First do moves not including any dice. 2d blocks with block-players next- etc. Of course important tasks are done earlier, too. Therefor it is up to you to balance security and importance. Get used to "save things first" though and start each turn by movements that don't carry any risk of failure. <div><span><input type="button" value="Stuff to learn" style='width:150px;font-size:12px;margin:0px;padding:0px;' onclick="if (this.value == 'Stuff to learn') { this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('span')[1].getElementsByTagName('span')[0].style.display = ''; this.value = 'Hide Stuff'; } else { this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('span')[1].getElementsByTagName('span')[0].style.display = 'none'; this.value = 'Stuff to learn';}"></span><span><div class="alt2" style='margin: 0px; width:800px; border: 0px solid;'><span style='display: none;'> <b>- The rules:</b> first things first. You can learn them by playing but reading the <a href="http://fumbbl.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=Downloads&file=index&req=getit&lid=86">Living Rulebook</a> really helps! I myself reread stuff every now and then. I got some stuff and links for myself in a blog. Most ppl use their profile for that. Just modify one and the same if you use a blog- don't make new "note to self" blogs all the time plz. In doubt? Trust the Help section! For quick reference see ... <a href="http://fumbbl.com/help:Reference">Reference!</a> What else? <b>- Strategy:</b> Learn the basics first by trying basher teams and agile teams so you'll know what you enjoy best. I am more attracted to bashers. If you choose bashers learn: fouling (how and when and what to do against), stalling (score not as soon as possible but late to prevent the opponent from scoring in that half again) and positioning (learn to see assisting players at a glance and learn to see what the opponent could do next from his position- Elves always surprise!). Use a "cage" being a basic strategy suiting most bashers. Means: position four guys on the corners of your ballcarrier to secure him. Like the 5 on a die. As you get better you should use a loose cage for being more flexible. Try out building a wall too- not protecting yours but blocking off his players. Both- wall and cage- meet up at the ideal point you might say. Pure cage is a good start though. Defense is everything. Although you might just want to "get those annoying humans/elves/..." - don't rush! Best way is not to get at them but let them come. There is just one lure to attract them: The Ball.<div><span> <b>- Mindset:</b> Don't get angry or annoyed! Stay focused and even more important: Have Fun! That's hard sometimes if your players die and the opponent got a Blitz again. In my experience getting angry and annoyed makes you loose (fun and game). Be good sports! A good coach is able to take serious losses in a stride and rather uses his energy to find a way to win.</b></span></div></span></div> <div><span><input type="button" value="Teams to play" style='width:150px;font-size:12px;margin:0px;padding:0px;' onclick="if (this.value == 'Teams to play') { this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('span')[1].getElementsByTagName('span')[0].style.display = ''; this.value = 'Hide recommendations'; } else { this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('span')[1].getElementsByTagName('span')[0].style.display = 'none'; this.value = 'Teams to play';}"></span><span><div class="alt2" style='margin: 0px; width:800px; border: 0px solid;'><span style='display: none;'> If you can spare a team I'd recommend <a href="http://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=team&op=view&showstats=1&team_id=258817">Hi</a> for the ultimate bashing challenge. Will crush your team most likely. Might be an interesting experience to face the real killing team. Especially if you want to know a "worst case" scenario before playing ranked- not for starters. Another recommendation is <a href="http://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=team&op=view&team_id=453895">Learning is fun</a>. Right now at low TR you can certainly play a fair match against them and loose on skill alone ^^ Their coach jimjo is fairly good. Although I don't know him but from few games his bio suggests he is good sports as well. That does not mean he'd play no-DP sissy games- just the contrary! In any case you will find experienced coaches willing to teach you a trick or two in the <a href="http://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=group&op=view&group=5413">Faculty of Academy Instructors</a></b></span></div></span></div> Indeed - my other Teams tell you on the spot how to beat 'em. How to beat Pro Elves? ... Dunno ... Haven't ever played them before ^^ Kill them I suggest. And expect me to try to outrun you and to pass. I'll try to stretch the field to disperse your players... I guess ... then Blitzfoul-KILL them probably... This Team will try to kill a little while playing ball. Just to show you how bad it is to draw a line between "nice passing ball players" and bashers. Pro Elf sure ain't bashers. DP makes us all equal though. Elfbowling is for Sissies. Btw: The quotes in the player bios aren't actually from Sun Tsus "The Art of War" but from his 36 Stratagems. <b>* Be good sports - crush all BB-Sissies *</b> |
