(0-0-0*) Norbagge United vs. Freedom Rock (0-0-0*) (Norse 1000) Knockoff vs. Parrigan Niall (Wood Elf 990)
*Wins - Losses - Losses by Submission (UBC)And IIIIIIITTTTTTTTs TIME for the first Ultimate Bowler match IN History of Blood Bowl. From Team Rocketdeath and as the Challenger, we have the returning son of Iron Phoenix. The member that took the name of this community all the way to the Semi-Final of the World Cup of Blood Bowl. After that match, Knockoff went on a short hiatus, but here he is...back and ready to try to add another trophy, and prove once and for all, that he is the Champ. From Team Havol, we have another known member of the Iron Phoenix, Parrigan Niall, who gain a reputation in the Stretcher and Hospital League, winning three trophies. He is the one and only elf coach in Ultimate Bowler I, which, if not stopped early, will be able to run circles around the rest of the teams. This match is a 4 min pr. round match. It is a knock-out match, with overtime and if needed penalties. It is important for both players to remember, that rerolls add to the chance of winning the penalty round, if going so far. The players are also allowed to concede the match, but it will be recorded as a loss by submission. This will of course, reward the opponent 2 MVPs and double the gold, which will make them stronger for future matches. This could become a problem, as the teams could meet again (see Wild Cards). So before Conceding, weigh the consequences. It is the responsibility of the two players to set up this match, using this thread. Please, both players, post your availabilities (as in any other I.P. league). The time that is used, should be in GMT. Please allow at least a day (24 hours), from agreeing to a match day to LIVE, giving everyone that wish to be a spectator a chance to join and watch. Deadline for the match is May 17th, 2100 GMT, but please put your effort in to getting it played before that, so we can move on to Match #2. Both teams have received a ticket for the match. Can be used any time, before match day. The Winner will move on to the Quarter-Finals. The Loser will go back to the Holding Cell, awaiting the Wild Card Matches, with a second chance to become a Finalist. See rules for more information. Everyone is allowed to use this thread for any thoughts they have of this match (keep it "kinda" civil). And a few words for the proud coach, Rocketdeath:As the first match ever in the Ultimate Bowler, Team Rocket makes its first challenge. Our legendary, World Cup material, norse coach will be pitted against Team Havol's treehugging wood sissies coached by Parrigan Niall. I expect an easy victory for Knockoff to advance my team down the path of Champions! Good Luck Knockoff, make me proud.

My reasoning for this challenge, I believe knockoff is a weapon and should be used as such to drop one of my opponents weapons. Parrigan's wood elves, if allowed to advance in this tournament will likely develop quickly. So they need to be snuffed out early. My norscan berserker team will chop down the elves beloved forest homes and use the timber to build their dragonships. They will then sail down the River of Glory!

Depending on my woman (mother's day and all that), I will do my best to be there, with a beer in my hand, ready to coach from my couch or at least to say "Eat Dirt, Knockoff. GOOOOO PARRIGAN"

(1-0-0*) Norbagge United vs. Freedom Rock (0-1-0*) (Norse 1110) Knockoff vs. Parrigan Niall (Wood Elf 970) 2 - 1
*Wins - Losses - Losses by Submission (UBC)
The stadium was filled with cheering fans for the Freedom Rock, pushing them to a Touchdown close to the end of first half. Freedom Rock even stalled Norbagge United a few more turns than needed to score. But it was not enough. With three turns left in 1st half, a failed leap against a strong cage, and Norbagge had an almost free run down to the equalizer. Second half, cheering fans was still showing their support for Freedom Rock. Even being down to 8 players, the lovely elvish maidens at the sideline, pushed Freedom Rock to try to get the ball quickly. Again, who can say no to such beauty? But it was also a distraction, except for the hardened Norse. More fail leaps, foul on a wardancer, that was showing off, sending him off on a stretcher, and Norbagge's ball carrier could spent the whole half, behind a wall of strong berserkers and werewolves, waiting to score just before the clock ran out. At this time, the cheers from the fans have changed in to rage, and they decided to take it in their own hands, invading the pitch. But it was late. Too few elf left to try any thing, and the score was written in to the journals of the first Ultimate Bowler match. 2-1 to Norbagge United. Knockoff on the way to show again, why he is one of the four best blood bowlers in the world. Good job, Knockoff. Well-played Parrigan. Hold on to both teams, as Norbagge United have taken the first Quarter Final spot, and Freedom Rock still have an opportunity to enter as a wild card. If any one else have some words, advice, match report etc for the above match, please write them. Looking forward to see what other players thoughts are on the match. Also thank you to all of the team members on both teams, that showed up for the match. Next time, I do want to get some voice chat on, so you can hear me scream and yell at failed dice, and cheering when it happens for the other team. Note: TV is calculated based on no changes on team, level up getting +STR and journeymen needed
