Slaanesh in Blood Bowl. If they do arrive, What would they be like? - SPECULATION

[@ntw3002]

I'd like them to be more elf-like, S3, AG-focused with no big guy. Chaos teams have all been variations of bash teams. Warriors at S3, a bit more like Elf blitzers or Vampire runners, beastmen with claws (or beaks) instead of horns. Give us a ball-playing chaos team (and for Tzeentch maybe try to make some combination of dump-off and fumblerooskie work - although that might wind up being too much of a gimmick)

Could be cool with some secret weapons, and succubi with wings and a whip and 8ma, 2str, on the ball and shadowing, dirty player on one... and dodge and side step like you were saying on the succubi and maybe wrestling, or stab instead of jump up like ghoul chewer, and reminds me a little of dark elves?

[@Bar0ns_Den]

Well Dark Elves and Slaanesh do have a few connections in the lore!

I think Slaanesh would make a great Re-Skin of the Slaan team.

[@Bar0ns_Den]

@@-Charon- yeah I’ve heard this before but part of me wants to see Slaan return and the other part of me doesn’t think it lives up to the tortuous pain inducing side of slaanesh.

[@-Charon-]

@Bar0ns_Den True enough; besides they've already re-skinned Slaan as Kislev Circus in BB2.

[@Bar0ns_Den]

@@-Charon-well I also have a video for a Kislev team coming up in the future! 😂

@@Bar0ns_Den I have a fun, Stunty idea for Tzeentch...

I'd say the cultists should be ag2+ but lose access to mutations and possibly be 60k Painseekers are over priced compared to amazon blockers same stat lines better skills 10k cheaper. Maybe 100k is a more reasonable pricing point... but like the ideas behind them. Slannigors are cool... id consider 'no hands' on them and drop them 10k Not taken with the big guy... id swap prehensile tail also for side step and keep it same price but... just let it have mutation on primary... strenght on a secondary! could really have interesting play syles and not be OP!

[@Bar0ns_Den]

Very good points. I really did want the cultists at ag 2+ and ridding them of mutations on primary and making them 60k would help towards justifying that. The Painseekers being cheaper would also help with the price increase of the cultists. You make a fair point when comparing them to amazon blockers. No hands could certainly work on the Slaangors and would help balance the team a little and make them more affordable. I had envisaged just one hand being clawed but they could have two! Prehensile tail was supposed to mimic the horribly long tongues the steeds and fiends of Slaanesh have! Swapping strength and mutation would be fun. I'm worried that too many higher strength players with side step could get oppressive. Really appreciate the feedback though! I hope we get to see a Slaanesh team some day.
