Top 5 Blood Bowl Mid-Range Teams - Top 5 Friday (Bonehead Podcast)

[@MangoFandangoBB]

Humans, Necros, Zons, Norse and Dark Elves are my go-to teams. All great hybrid teams.

[@hampuskullberg9932]

A bit surprised that Amazons missed the top 5 :) And zombies are some of the best blockers, they just happens top block with their feet... On prone players ;)

[@SoulCrusherEx]

love the new background music

[@deanthomas2561]

This might not be the best video to ask the question, but... How in blazes do you build Humans? I don't want too many players bloating TV but I'd really like it if the Catchers and Halfling didn't have to play defensive drives? I'm thinking of running 2 Catchers and a Halfling but that means 14 players which just feels too many

Black Orcs are very much Bash or Dash. Either go combat heavy, blocking with Black Orcs and fouling with the gobbos, or go Dash strat using Black Orc grab cages to open up a lane and run it through with the stunty. Edit: My point ia proven by your inclusion of Lizardmen. Black Orcs are very similar to Lizardmen.

[@garrhettroebuck8402]

I think the main problem is the Black Orcs lack the MA to "Dash". A grinding grab cage is just a Bashy way to score (Dwarves for example). Going from MA 6 and 8 to MA 4 and 6 is a massive change.

[@trashfire9641]

@@garrhettroebuck8402 True, they don't dash as well, but that doesn't take away from the fact that they are still built for 50/50 bash & dash. Example of dash, first few turns you have goblin ball carrier safely caged by black orcs, using grab to put defenders behind the cage, then dash out towards the end zone with the stunty ball carrier. Or bash bash bash with black orcs and follow up fouling with gobbos taking advantage of bribery and corruption rules.

I'm newly getting into blood bowl and bought a beachhead bowl 22 ticket! Hoping to get some practise games in with a mate before getting squashed by all the veterans :)

Quick question: where does nobility fit in?

[@AutumnReel4444]

Weird perspective that tiers give. LizardMen have a below average tournament winrate, yet get called a top 2 team? Seems wild to me I'd like to understand that better

[@JanCRefsgaard]

Late reply: they are bad vs Underworld and good vs most other top teams, so they look worse than they are if you look at tournament win rates.

[@EssexBoyz]

Can’t wait to play my Undead team now 😃 I suppose i need to pull my finger out and get them built and painted then 🤔🤣🤣

[@waarghboss79]

Wouldn’t say lizard men are midrange.😹

[@edwardfranklin4467]

surprised at lack of gores. Half the team is fast and dodgy. Half is very hitty

[@SlyRax66]

What about Norse?

[@trashfire9641]

We need an official Norse team.

[@JorisVDC]

Norse lack the speed and dodge pieces. They also don't have a good passing game. They are primarily a bash team but like a glass cannon.
