Last winners of UKBBL were
Nurgle Chaos Dwarf Dark Elf Chaos Chaos Dwarf Chaos Dark Elf Dark Elf Undead Dark Elf
A lot of the Dark Elf wins were by the same team, but if they can win it then I guess other elves can too!

I can only talk about the leagues I know. But it seems to me that claw and elves are doing the job atm. In OCC the 6 last champions (from about the time I've been involved in there) have been those 2 aforementioned elves, 2x nurgle, chorf and necro. Necro being a hybrid team but they had an absolutely terrifying legendary killer doggie. In OFL last 2 world champs have been elves (EMOs and wussies). BC has been dominated by chorfs many seasons now. Those are the big/medium sized leagues I'm involved in. Things might be different in UKBBL for example. In here things are a bit distorted. The lack of many homicidal claw teams have let the bashies and hybrids to flourish. That's one of the reasons why elves don't do that well in here - they are often underdogs against traditional bashies who can stack a lot more tackle than claw teams. It's ridiculous that immortal has 3 orc teams at the TV they are playing at. And my lizzies would be paste very soon if there were a few more good claw teams around. But don't worry, this is a matter which I'm on my way to resolve Now, I'm not trying to start anything here. Just wanna defend my beloved elfies Jounisii, my hero (even if I can't best you).

It's true that High Elves have dominated the first few seasons of Immortal, but that's due in part to limited competition. First two seasons, there was a grand-total of six different coaches taking part. Last season proved a bit more difficult.
Once we get a proper number of coaches in Immortal, say 8-10, then I'd love to see how well certain races do. For me, Immortal is skewed because of this. NOt taking anything away from Goodpass, mind you, I'm just sayin'...

Hudd: I consider EMOs (=darkies for some of you) one of the best, if not the best team in BB. Pro elves are the most challenging of the elves IMHO. Parrigan: LOL CJ: Maybe Goodpass is just such a good coach (unless he crumbles against flings - pls Goodpass read this ). I think Havol has a point there. The sample size has been quite small. Even tho helves in capable hands are competitive at any TV. The helf team that won OCC hovered long around 2600k. I play a lot of elves: Pros in OCC and in OFL, wussies in Big Crunch. And then I take shorter tourneys with them as well (check out Legacy final if cKnoor broadcasts it). Those permanent leagues are very competitive and in other leagues I just like to have fun and play something different - lately lizzies and chaos in here + flings, UW and khorne elsewhere.

It's hard not to gloat while I give these stats as I myself am the coach of those Falcon Firebirds.

Crumbles to halflings, hahaha. Especially against those with low value. Ooh I love this League as all teams need to have a high value to enter in the first place, hahaha. Starting in Tin and working my way up I lost matches as the lack of basic skills kicked in. So I understand why starting High Elf teams are not tier 1. What it learned me is how to loose and rebuild the team. Rebuilding the team is something that goes on and on, the moment the team crumbles is near ( even without halflings ) to handle the spiral downwards is the real challenge. Firing the team comes in mind, but acting like a firebird and do Phoenix honour would be the cherry on the cake.

"Crumbles against halflings" sounds like a great team name :-)

Got a OPEN question for everyone ...
I had a person talking to me the other day about Blood Bowl. One thing he said, to me was that the different teams had different levels. Something about different tiers. Can anyone explain to me what he was saying?

Got a OPEN question for everyone ... I had a person talking to me the other day about Blood Bowl. One thing he said, to me was that the different teams had different levels. Something about different tiers. Can anyone explain to me what he was saying? Short answer: teams are "divided" into three levels (or tiers), tier one being teams which are expected to win more than half their games and have large advantages as far as winning leagues, tournaments etc. Tier two teams are those which can win well but require better coaching/luck and tier three are "fun/comedy" teams where winning is..not so frequent. Prime examples would be dark elves tier one (winners or approx half the major tournaments recently) and halflings tier three (no explanation necessary) Overall it's a little more complex than that, but that's the basic gist of it. For example ogres, tier three. though they can, and do, win matches frequently through sheer carnage, their unreliability makes it highly unlikely they would be competetive in a top level tournament. Google "blood bowl top tier teams" for a more detailed explanation but hopefully this helps.
