Having the backup of a reroll really lets you push your luck, especially as you are no longer limited to only using one per turn. Four Vampires can still be quite a pain for opponents to deal with and can achieve a lot on the pitch. You don’t start with any useful on pitch skills other than Hypnotic Gaze (which is amazing) so the rerolls help a lot. This is the roster I started with in a local league and I feel it has the best balance between Vampires and rerolls. QTYĪnimal Savagery, Hypnotic Gaze, Regeneration You’ll just be biting your team mates far too often and it will take ages to save up for more rerolls. Likewise I wouldn’t go to the other end and start with six Vampires and two rerolls. I used to start them with an extreme set up of two Vampires and five rerolls, whilst this can be successful it’s not one I recommend any more. ![]() I don’t feel that the changes have really affected your choices when it comes to selecting your starting lineup. As far as Vampire teams go, the prices are all the same with some slight rule tweaks about how they perform on the pitch. From a tactical standpoint though it just has too many drawbacks.A lot of the teams in the Blood Bowl Teams of Legend document are very similar if not the same as under the old rules. There is a case to be made for taking a Deathroller from the start and that’s purely down to the enjoyment you think you’ll get from going that route. Straying away from this just causes too many drawbacks to really warrant doing so. Dwarf Starting Rosters Summaryĭwarf starting rosters are one of the most straight forward teams when it comes to picking an obvious starting point. You’re also probably going to want to save up to get an extra reroll (though some coaches won’t) which makes it hard to prioritise your spending. Assuming you get no lasting injuries, by the time you’ve added both the Blitzers and the Troll Slayers to the team, you’re up to fifteen players including the Deathroller. You are also spending more money on extra Blockers that you probably aren’t going to want long term in order to keep your team value down. One of the strengths of the Dwarf team is how hard they are to remove from the pitch, so taking a really expensive one that is going to get sent off goes counter to that strength. You only have eleven players and the most expensive one of those is going to get sent off. Looking at the roster I think you are giving up far too much and handicapping yourself in order to start with the Deathroller. The extra speed of the Runners is probably going to be the bigger miss, even though they don’t start with Block. You now also have to choose between dropping Blitzers or Runners (or one of each). Squeezing in three rerolls isn’t really practical. To free up funds it makes sense to start without Troll Slayers for the reasons given above. With the price increases it becomes even harder to fit a Deathroller into a starting team. I would still make getting one the first purchase you make. You can’t afford to start with an Apothecary but with high armour and lots of Block you are one of the most survivable teams. You also have the Frenzy factor, if your league has a lot of stronger teams then Frenzy is harder to work around until you start getting some players with Guard to help them out.Īs speed and overall low agility is the downside to the team, I feel starting with three rerolls helps out. They also have slightly lower armour than most their team mates and whilst it’s the same as the Runners, their agility and extra speed make them more important. The other positional have better agility which is one of the Dwarf team’s weaknesses. The obvious choice is to only start with a single Troll Slayer. The go to starting roster for years was pretty straight forward but consecutive price increases, first to the team rerolls and then to a couple of players, now means you have to drop a positional player for an extra Lineman. Old World Classic, Worlds Edge Superleague QTYīreak Tackle, Dirty Player (+2), Juggernaut, Loner (5+), Mighty Blow (+1), No Hands, Secret Weapon, Stand Firm This means you now can’t just get three rerolls and all your normal positional players straight away. ![]() ![]() They are expensive (and have gone up even more) and due to having Secret Weapon aren’t going to stay on the pitch for the whole game.Ī couple of players, the Runners and Troll Slayers have also had a slight price increase. ![]() Your main consideration is if you want to have a Deathroller on your team. Dwarf teams have it pretty easy as a beginner team, the players and rerolls are quite affordable and you have both high armour and lot of Block.
