WA lets you keep your TZs, but that's in compensation for having to trust your blitz to a big guy if they get out of position or knocked over.

So my chaos team is hovering around 2400 TV and one of my Chaos Warriors is an injury magnet. He's got block, guard, might blow, claw, and tail. Problem is he's down to 1 agi and 8 av. Worth firing him to bring down tv? The agi doesn't seem to affect him much, as he just sits in crowds giving guard and throwing blocks, but the -av is definitely starting to show.

It's not just that he has minus stats and big TV bloat, but every game you play him is a game his eventual replacement is not getting SPP. When you do eventually replace him, you'll kick yourself that you didn't do it earlier.

Yorkshire Tea posted:Speaking from my experience adminning the most recent Goonbowl, it's really variable. I know that Nurgle, both Lizards and Goblins all took their big guys. Norse, both Orc teams and I believe both Skaven teams didn't. I probably would have taken the Troll on my Orcs given the chance, but they're absolutely the least important purchase after starting the team and he needs Guard to reliably contribute anything other than lovely blocks and missed actions. So, I've got to buy everything else I want for my team, then save up enough for the Troll, and then a level on the stupid prick in time for elimination games or else he's more of a liability than a contribution, and even then against AG4 teams he probably won't get to do anything since the Elves will never stand next to him and he's sure not getting the Blitz. Mr. Squishy posted:I was going to say that Tents and Guard would push the 110k Troll to 150k, aka 3 average linos, but then I noticed Tea included Block in his lups, and I guess ya, Big Guys are pretty good with Block. If he doesn't have stand firm he can also just get push/followed by one of the linos and now you have 180k TV marking 50k.

Biggest difference i've had so far in TV was "only" 450. Must depend on the amount of players. In general I don't mind fighting up to 200TV in difference. at my TV of 1450 that is usually purely due to the opponent stacking 4 or even 5 rerolls, versus my one reroll (+leader)

My 2400ish team gets matched with 1000-1200 teams about 1 in 10 games. The matchmaking pool must be pretty shallow.

I think there is nothing that makes fouling more "douchery" than a skill -pile on- that has as its only effect to injure an opposing player. It not awarding any SPP is a moot point as I don't care about SPP's on my peasants anyway after the first 6. Level 3 peasants get automatically fired. I might keep a Sneaky Git Dirty Player maybe, and see how long he survives

You may feel like a douche for playing a ClawMBPO Chaos team, but then you get matched up against a Dwarf team and it suddenly all makes sense.

Depending on the league you can either leave the NAF league, and join the other league. OR some leagues require players to start with a fresh team. Mind you, if you leave the NAF with your team you can't get back in (it's fresh teams only)

What I really want is to be able to cycle through my players with the shoulder buttons on the team management screen instead of having to back out to the headshots and select the next player every time. Its a minor thing but it irritates the hell out of me for some reason. Being able to rename players after you hire them instead of only on recruitment would be nice too. I didnt know that lineman was going to get a str up when I hired him, and now I cant rename him stompy pete.

That alone makes things interesting A well played elf team is boring as gently caress. You're right that a poorly played elf team is great fun. A well played elf team can be summarized as this - Dodge away from everything on two plus, stand one square away from you every turn. If they have the ball, then hold it in deeep in their own back field until they choose to score. It's really boring as gently caress playing the game when it comes down to just moving the X's and O's around and nothing happening unless the elf snakes a roll.

My skinks are hidden behind my big lizards and there's no way to move them in front so I can see all the players. Team name aside, there's no reason to stop players customising every single aspect of their team at any time. Rename the stadium, change the uniform colours, give better nicknames to players. I only say the team name should stay the same as it's the one thing that truly decides what the team is, and in random play it's the team name that will be remembered and talked about. All the rest though should be unlocked, it's tough giving names to players not knowing what they'll turn into a few games down the line.

I'd rather play against elves than dwarfs considering I can get spp from murdering the elves. Dwarfs give you poo poo for cas spp and probably wont let you score more than once either.

Victor Vermis posted:Can you buy the DLC team with Cyans? How are they accrued? No, the DLC teams are listed in the store in USD. Cyans can be spent on new uniform unlocks (which I think can only be applied to new teams) and are accrued by playing in the NAF free ladder or purchased with cash. I don't know if other leagues can give cyans or not.

I haven't tried spending Cyans to see if I can get more for matches, but they stopped at 304 Cyans / coach level 20. They seem kind of pointless unless you're dead set on a jersey.

I bought a couple of jerseys on the PS4 version because the black and gold Chaos All-Stars kit was way too sweet to turn down. My biggest question is if future teams will only be purchasable with coins. These first two were used as pre-order bonuses, and the coin shop wasn't set up. There's a good chance they may make it so all DLC is coins only, forcing you to buy into the nonsense fake currency.
