To get an impression check this vid on Youtube. Last November, Eurobowl took place in Malta. The 2022 Road to Malta Online NAF tournament

So let’s check out what the pro’s are using! Bad roster choices will put you at a disadvantage even before the actual game has started. It turns out that the World Cup is pretty similar to the Eurobowl ruleset, so we can learn from the Eurobowl rosters to prepare for the World Cup. This describes which teams are allowed, how much gold coaches have to buy players, and how much skills can be allotted to players to improve their ball handling, or ability to knock other players down. This year the World Cup is hosted by Spain, and at least as many coaches are expected in Alicante to battle it out.īlood Bowl tournaments typically come with a “Rule pack”. With the ultimate tournament of course being the World Cup! The previous World Cup was held in 2019 in Dornbirn, Austria, and attracted 1400 coaches. So the cool thing of Blood Bowl is that it has a highly competitive Tournament scene. To get an estimate of the player base: a popular Blood Bowl channel on Youtube called “Bonehead podcast” currently has some 16K subscribers. See my previous blog posts on Blood Bowl for more background and stats.

It is set in the Warhammer universe, with teams populated by Orcs, Dwarves, Elves etc. For the uninitiated: In my spare time I like to play Blood Bowl, a chess-like board game where two teams play a match of fantasy football. Yet another Blood Bowl post! This one is to warm up to the upcoming World Cup, analyzing variation in Roster choices by top coaches.
