SEASON 4 SIGN-UPS UNDERWAY
SEASON 4 SIGN-UPS HAVE BEGUN!
Sign-ups for the season 4 Chaos Cup are now underway!
MAML seasons run for three open competitions with a fourth invitational championship competition. Coaches are only committed to playing the open competitions they sign up for. Those who earn a spot in the championship are committed to playing that competition as well. Moreover, the season is structured in a way which allows coaches to commit to however many open competitions they like and still remain competitive.
The league is built specifically to be welcoming to all coaches regardless of experience or skill level.
To sign up, head over to our Discord and tag EvaUnit02 in the #bloodbowl channel with your team's name, team's race, and your Blood Bowl III coach name. Be sure to read and abide by the league rules.
Sign-ups will end on Sunday, January 7th, 2024 at 12:00am. Good luck to all participating coaches this season! Break a skull!
NEW RULES MAY PROVE CONFOUNDING TO VETERAN COACHES
With season 4 set to begin in January, coaches may find the significant rule changes to be a big hurdle to overcome.
The new season brings with it the up-to-date BB2020 rules. Coaches who have been playing under the LRB6 will need to have studied up in order to take advantage of all the new game has to offer. We interviewed a few veteran coaches to get their opinions on the new rules.
"Gone are GFIs and in are Rush!", said Clypheous. GFIs have been renamed to Rushes but are otherwise identical. When asked to clarify, Clypheous sang, "Living in the limelight, the universal dream for those who wish to seem!" We're not entirely sure what he meant but he surely has something up his sleeve.
"The new PA stat is a huge boon.", said Dead Fred. PA is the new Passing stat and is used for passing rolls as opposed to Agility. "You can bet my PA can beat up DougTheMinotaur's PA any day of the week. Also, my PA works for Nintendo."
"Who needs Nuffle anymore when you can spend five re-rolls in a single turn?", asked Merek. Team Re-Rolls are no longer restricted to one per turn and are instead restricted to one per roll. "I'll just go ahead and say it right now: forget Nuffle! What a worthless god. Good riddance!"
We at the Gazette praise Nuffle and feel cursing his name is a poor strategic move. However, the rumor mill is abuzz with talk that Merek has shifted allegiances. He is rumored to have been shouting, "Blood for the Blood God! Skulls for the Skull Throne!" during pre-season practice. Could Merek be a Khornate now? We'll find out in season 4!
