[@Straylight_Sailor]

Dark Elves Blitzers, Skaven Gutter Runners and Wardancers are in the top 5 to cheer against for sure

[@ntw3002]

Every time my wardancer dies, a wardancer dies. Every cloud has a silver lining

[@tanewoodley9806]

Werewolves too. Can't forget those bastards.

[@-KorruptionOfLight-]

You forgot the wraith

[@codybishop8751]

Throw teammate players are my pick for cheering for, trolls, ogres, and trees. The throw goblin touchdown is always funny, if they die in the attempt

[@Ads.D]

For me it's anyone going for a one-turn TD by throwing a stunty 😁 I always want them to land and stroll into the endzone 😄

[@tzeentchling]

Cheering against: 1. Hyper mobile scorers that are impossible to touch. Primarily Gutter Runners, but also Catchers with M8, blodge, sidestep, etc. 2. Dedicated killers. Thinking Werewolves here, but the players with claw, mighty blow, tackle, piling on, etc. 3. Ag 4+ players who can do everything. Witch Elves, Wardancers, etc., it feels great when they finally roll a 1. 4. Star Players. They're usually broken good so seeing them fail something is a pleasure. Especially the Super Stars and bombers. 5. Dedicated foulers. It's a part of the game and important for some teams, but I still find it obnoxious.

[@foehammer111]

My cheer against: 5) Big guys with lots of skills 4) Wardancers 3) max level players (survived too long and basically mini star players) 2) Gutter runners 1) The try-hard star players: Griff, Hakflem, Jordell

[@davidblake5415]

I like your enthusiasm for Gobbos! Played 7s this afternoon. Gobbo v Orc. Last game in the league and the Gobbos were down both trolls ( dead and MNG in previous game against Chaos with a Minotaur). Scored twice second half to draw. First was 3 dodges to mark the back carrier ( Orc Thrower) ; 3 dodges and a rush to 1d block it; PoW; 2 dodges to pick up and rush for a short pass to a marked Gobbo; catch and dodge to score! Second was a TTM in turn 6 Love it!!

[@nathanbrown8314]

I had a underworld goblin named Kevin who random rolled foul appearance. He played every game defensive front line center square, he went toe to toe with ogres, trolls, and monsters of all kinds and lived. He had ungodly luck, truly blessed by nuffle. He was a good gobbo

[@brianodwyer8094]

Cheer Against: the bomma’s, gutter runners, and Griff.

[@scottnorman5911]

I have a Goblin in my league team. He currently has Fend, Safe Pair of Hands and Sure feet. Also had a goblin get to 18spp, making a successful pass to earn his final ssp..... only to be killed, dead, next turn. R.I.P Piz the Goblin

[@TripleSkulled]

Suboptimal positionals? Bad throwers? Dangerous big guys? Sprinkle a goblin in there too if you want. You guys need to join the chaos renegade teams fans!

[@ViktorGrimdark]

Recently discovered your show and I’m currently working my way through all your content. How about a Top 5 Favored of.. list?

[@adrianscott4288]

This reminds me of my Renegade Lineman "Karen". She spent the ENTIRE first game of a league, 16 turns, getting her faced punched in by a Bloodseeker. At the end she got MVP and randomly rolled Frenzy. 😅 For the rest of the league, she was unstoppable. Nobody could hurt her and she rivalled the Rat Ogre for her ability to put players on the ground (or into the crowd). Karen was the one player I was cheering for every game, but my opponents? Well, there's currently a $50 bounty (as in, real money) on her head for the coach that finally kills her!

[@user-kx9ps7gx8h]

Getting a real world bounty put on your player's head is how you know they've truly made it.

[@SupermarketZombies]

Strength up elves must be rooted against. Guy in my league has a Chaos Renegade Dark Elf with Strength 5, Movement 8, Block, and Dodge

[@grahampickett8409]

Trollslayer....whenever he is trying to kill a big guy

[@torasin13]

I can agree with that list... I also feel an honourable mention should go to players with fun names... for instance how can you not cheer for a Beer Boar going in for a cheeky 2 dice up block when its name is either Hams Christian Anderson or Cider Pig.

[@budgieblitzer3842]

Cute names 👍

[@Ryan-The-Super-Lion]

My cheer against list: 5) the big guy dead center on LOS - especially when they receive 4) blodgers 3) all elves - especially blitzers (which wardancers are) 2) players who are about to earn spp 1) any player on a team that isn't coached by me

[@davidbenton8775]

To cheer against... 5. ST4 standard size players. 4. Ball and Chain. 3. Star Players. 2. Bombers 1. Murderous Players. All destroy skillful play.

[@-KorruptionOfLight-]

Snotlings are a lot of fun. You toss them at the opponent and don't care what happens to them. For mine, I painted them all different colours and just named them 'blue', 'red', 'yellow' etc

[@grahampickett8409]

Definitely Grot Brady and trumpets

[@codybishop8751]

Would like to cheer against the entirety of the Lizardmen team lol. My brother loves them, they are his favorite team and to be fair I get it. Multiple strong blockers from the Saurus, the chameleons are fantastic ball holders, the skinks are excellent movement and replacement ball carriers, the Kroxigor is amazing in strength and tail. They are fast moving, great blockers, and great ball handlers. I don’t care that the down side is that they fairly limited skills, because they murder all my players without those skills anyway they will get them. The lizards are great team to play but man I hate playing against them 😅

[@larsbrndum8200]

I will ALWAYS cheer for a Gutter Runner that's going for an uphill cage-dive in order to pop the ball out of the hands of an opposing ball carrier, pick up the ball in a flurry of opposing tackle zones just to dodge away and make a break for it into the endzone... Simply because it's an epic play! But I get why most people won't :)

[@yeraynsnc6329]

Nothing is more celebrated than a griff/morg leaving the pitch due to doble 1s or doble skulls... wardancer close second place

[@mackenziedallalana8129]

Human Linemen. When a generic linemen becomes a hero, its just great.

[@-Charon-]

Looney and Fanatic players are in my top of players to cheer for. The risk vs reward is so fun to watch.

[@OnyersixForLife]

My proudest moment was scoring with a Treeman on my Halfling team.

[@olig3657]

Always want a ball and chain piece to fail

[@Darkthur]

LOVE this list! Good job! Cant stand snots though. Allow really hateful combos. I would add Slann - really bad at the start, can do great things with just a few skills.

[@ItsEnZe]

I think any player with more than 3 level ups I start to cheer against and also werewolves

[@cesarelizondoramos3432]

For me are Gutter Runners, Wardancers and mosey Dwarves

[@cesarelizondoramos3432]

Edit: Most Dwarves

[@spaceiguana5066]

I honestly can't think of a single thing I'd root against. I love the game, even when it stabs me in the back, steals my wallet and ruptures a kidney. Dice Rolls make fools of us all. I'm rooting for all of you ❤

[@orkooskar]

I have yet to meet a (non chaos-)dorf I have not cheered against.

[@bunionsandcabbage6764]

You forgot that the Chameleon skink is the 2nd best passer in the Lustrian Super League

[@sirvejlancebb]

Cheer against. 1. Mummies st5 mb without loner or negs. 2. Vampire throwers st 4 elf with gaze 3. Vampire runners ma8 elf runner with gaze 4. Woodland fox 5. All bombers

[@mikefoster6018]

"Juggs on the minotaur".

[@MrAdampyke]

Am I on this list? 😂

[@BoneheadPodcast]

Always 🤣 we even named an award after you hahahah

[@user-kx9ps7gx8h]

For me, it's simple. I cheer for all Lizardmen and cheer against all Amazons. Oh, I also cheer against War Dancers.

[@stephenhopkins3451]

It has to be blodge, I randomed one in a league and it just felt something was going to happen every time he got the ball

[@hampuskullberg9932]

Cheering against: 4. The boring skilled up cookie cutter. It doesn't matter if it's a killer or a thrower. When it's optimized and top tier they are a problem to face and don't bring any new flavor. Kinda like why dwarfs are frustrating to face. 3. The fast agile untouchable scorers. Doesn't matter if it's a gutter runner, skink or vampire. When you know you can't touch them you just love when they roll snake eyes! 2. The one man teams. The player that can do it all. The Griffs, the Hakflems, The Drakenborgs and the equivalent of +stat/skilled legendary team players of the league. 1. Elves. Any and all. Period.

[@nordischesVieh]

Beer Boars, always the Beer Boars! 🍺🐗🥳

[@MrSumarr]

Elves….period

[@Ryan-The-Super-Lion]

I originally had wrote for 5) elves (all of them) for 5-1

[@osueloliden6905]

another one, players who are injured Had a ghoul with 4+ to ag, and he never ever again lost one single roll, scored a lot and injured some players. guess he was trying to compensate for his first bad game when he got injured and do nothing

[@Ryan-The-Super-Lion]

Whatever player is trying to knock down your ball carrier - he sucks

[@sebastianromero113]

Shadowing nerv that nobody was asking for, killed cameleon and assasin.

[@HunterKJ]

Everything on a lizard team but mainly the Saureses. I hate them all.

[@commissariat9123]

All Elves

[@OmegaDestroyer99]

To cheer against: 1. Gutter Runners are the worst. Overtuned and undercosted. I hope they fail at everything. Need a serious rework. 2. Wardancers are slightly less awful. You only have 2 to deal with. 3. Skinks. 6 mini gutter runners. Enough said. 4. Bombers. I always hope they roll a 1 and blow themselves up. 5. Star players. Who doesn't hate dealing with Griff or Deeproot?
