A straightforward rant about why Blood Bowl is a terrible game and why you should not play it. Feel free to comment and argue with each other, but I will not be reading them because I know I am right, and you are wrong and I do not care what you have to say about Blood Bowl.

    Absolute shit take. How can you play for this long and realize you don't like a game?

    Lol, 10min to finish a game would be considered casual.. Mansions of Madness & Nemesis are some of my favourite games that takes usually 2+h to play. Not to mention it's a game about risk mitigating (to which re-rolls are a fundamental part of), which obviously isn't his cup of tea. Not to mention not understanding asymmetrical teams.

    What’s better than a D6’s probability? Would the game make more sense using D10 or D20? You’re right that it takes forever. 1-2 hours for one match at the table, shorter on console/PC.

    I can't get back into Dota with my favorite hero, vipers w being changed into what it is now. He lost so much passive attack damage building him as a semi carry feels like I'm trolling my team. I miss when manta heart felt so strong but now he just lacks the damage. Rip Viper.

    Don't worry Blood bowl is less frustrating than league of legends 😂 It's actually the game I play to chill. I play human teams only and have a 10V / 1D /0L atm, having a great time bullying teams in low TV 😂

    Dark and Darker had the same issue but softlocked the game by adding high roller so you pay an ante fee. High risk. High reward or you just play normal low risk low reward it works in that community don’t know why BSG couldn’t hotfix test this setup. They took it a step forward by also capping the rarity of items which you could take in to normal to stop “steam rolling” which is essentially the same issue EFT is facing. Totally agree with you on this P Flax. Also big up the Triforce Podcast. (Mail bag) When’s the next bodega book coming out? - Nathan

    I spent a lot of time playing the board game with a fully painted undead team back in the day. Later, I'd spend many, many more hours in Blood Bowl 1 and 2. 100% agree with all the points raised in this video.

  • @user-qf7dl2ki4t

    Yes blood bowl using d6 is bad so ill just go on about D-D for a quarter of the video. tO bE A cAsUaL gAmE iT hAs To tAkE oNlY tEn MiNuTeS As for a skilled player missing the ball. It is blatantly obvious that youve never been that 'into' sports.or you wouldnt moan about that mechanic. So calm down dear. Imagaine getting all sweary with nerd rage about a fantasy game. Its a silly game based on a board game. Get out of the basement and the velour fila top and ground yourself every now and then.

    It seems odd that your main concern is that the odds of success and failure aren't realistic in a game about fantasy races playing a comedy sportsgame. However everyone is entitled to their opinions and not everything is for everyone.

    Your complaints are not invalid. Obviously d6 games are flawed -- I know one in which you can DIE DURING CHARACTER CREATION. And obviously no one plays GURPS, so probably not even worth bringing up. You missed some of the ludicrous outcomes in Blood Bowl though. You can struggle to get the ball into the diminutive hands a goblin or snotling, successfully get the Troll to move in the correct direction to throw the little one towards the goal and just have them EAT the little guy instead... ball and all! Once their in the gut, they're dead, dead, dead... beyond the ability of the medics to heal them. That same Troll can vomit on other players... but it's possible for them to find some opponents TOO DISGUSTING TO VOMIT ON! ("Nope... they're nauseating... not gonna vomit on THAT! I only vomit on CLEAN things, like elves and zombies.") And obviously anyone who would laugh at these situations in a pub, three pints in, while playing BB is, in your words, a sociopath. Thank you for warning folks away from this game.

      @imfinishedgrinding638 2 місяці тому

      Limit your hero pool to 2-5 per role, Take a break if you lose 2 games in a row and try later, Practice heroes you play in demo, lobbies, normal or turbo matches, etc. and put a lot of emphasis on last hitting if it's core role, on support roles you need to understand on macro to thrive so I'm afraid you're gonna have to read guides and watch pro matches for this one. Play with the aim to improve and your rank will rise. Winning is short term coz when you're suddenly on a losing streak you won't have the necessary skills, game understanding and patience to bounce back from it.
