Which team are you running in MBBL2 Season 3?

Post by martynq »

Since Galak has just announced that there will be only one division in Season 3 of the MBBL2, I'm faced with the difficult decision of which team to retire.

(1) My high elves... potentially getting to a point where they might do really well, but I seem to find elves difficult to play. When it all goes right this team is really fun, but when the dice go against me... :o An additional problem is that they've been a little hurt by failed aging rolls, but I have spent two seasons developing them so it seems a waste to stop now.

(2) My undead team... definitely a potent force who have done pretty well over the previous two seasons and since my AG+1 wight also gained ST+1 in the last match he's really quite nasty. The MBBL2 does seem to be rather bash heavy, so this team might last longer.

Anybody got any suggestions?

What thoughts do you have for your teams?

Cheers,
Martyn

I would go with the Elves (ick poo), its more challenging. I dont have that problem i was going to voluntarily drop a team and only run a new one. My teams name is Demonspawn, if u want an idea of whats in it, look for a poll lower down in this forum.

Gotta confess I'm absolutely gutted by this. :(
The beauty of the MBBL2 is the chance to run 'unofficial' teams. I have a Khorne Daemon team in Div A. Took me a lot of sacrifice to get up to the point where I could have some fun with a Bloodthirster. I think I'll have to stick with them.
My other team is Clan Moulder from the 'Clan Bowl' article. Now it was always obvious that this team was going to take a while to get going (2 Rat Ogres, 2 Throwers and linerats with access to mutations on a normal roll). A Skaven team with 2 WA, no Gutter Runners and no Storm Vermin (so not one player that starts with Block) is bound to struggle early. After 5 games they're just starting to get competitive, and I'd really like to see this team develop. Definately a middle to long term roster that's just about on the cusp of short/middle term.
Plus of course it's the only Clan Moulder team in the League. It's a crying shame that it ain't gonna be able to develop, although I can see that the demands on Tom's time have gotta be excessive.

Hey Tom, are you still going to have an opening in MBBL2 for me to play a half-orc team?
