Blitz Bowl Ultimate Second Edition Humans vs Gnomes | Gnomevember

15:43 That is a great idea! To tell the audience which ruleset you are playing at the beginning of the game. As the whole Internet would assume that Blitz Bowl: Ultimate Edition - Season 2 would be played with Blitz Bowl: Ultimate Edition - Season 2 rules, unless otherwise stated. But long time watchers of your channels would know better. They'd know that games rarely are 1 to 1 with the official rules.

12:38 It does not matter if the player is standing or prone. If a player is pushed to an occupied square, Shove is treated as Smash instead, as the table on the back of the rulebook (and on page 18). This has been the same from the first edition of Blitz Bowl.

[@janenglund]

0:20 Lol, the Catcher has had Move 8 since the first Ultimate Edition. Sure, it had Move 7 in Blitz Bowl (2018) and in Blitz Bowl: Season 2 (2020).

My sleep schedule is a mess. 😅 we also record most of these games after midnight.

18:06 It is mandatory to discard a challenge card when none is claimed. And discarding one would have given you change to score 3 points! You had 3 blocks available and 2 of them assisted. (One assisted block was not taken.)

[@janenglund]

6:40 Yes, the player is Marked and can't throw. Good catch! And also Catcher has 4+, not 3+!

[@janenglund]

2:55 I play so differently than you do. As 2/3 of the points in Blitz Bowl are scored from the cards, I always go for the cards, if possible. Here for example, she could have tried to score Free Up the Ball!

[@Nardio]

One of these days we need to play a dozen or so games together. It would’ve interesting to play it different ways for a bit on both sides.

[@janenglund]

11:50 When the ball bounces to a Marked player, it bounches again.

[@janenglund]

17:35 Now Sidestep would give her 2 points (and keep the game going if played with official rules).

[@janenglund]

20:12 Again, Armour roll and Break Some Bones?

[@janenglund]

19:24 What happened to Armour roll and Break Some Bones?!? I have to reiterate, this game is not about touchdowns, it is about the challenge cards. Aim of the game is to score them, not touchdown. And aim of the game is to play so that your opponent can't claim the cards. You have to defend the challenge cards (more than defending touchdowns).

[@janenglund]

3:16 Not playing for points? 😱 There is a free touchdown and certain Spread Out! on the table. 5 free points. Blocking gives you none. A bit confused here. 😶

[@janenglund]

11:25 Get rid of Show No Fear? That is 2 free points?!? One Mark action would scored that. 🤷

[@janenglund]

4:22 Again. She could have scored ALL the cards. But just one of them, of course. You surely are not playing for points!
