Robin discusses Blood Bowl Defensive set ups with Twitch streamer AndyDavo. Check out Andy's Channels: www.twitch.tv/andydavo / @andydavobloodbowl 10k Subs Give away - • Video
Never seen the "space invader" set up. I play mostly BB2 Legendary on the PC. Nice tips for a new coach like me! I find that most of the time my defense is my strong point. Really looking forward to seeing some offense!
Hi. Thanks for a great video! Question: I have a hard time seeing how the ziggurat/chevron is not optimal in all of these cases. So let me try an convince myself I'm wrong. 1. The ziggurat leaves at least one valuable player exposed. 2. An off-center LOS to take advantage of a perfect defense would leave my middle completely open, meaning any team can run forward without doges or start their cage further up if they get a good return. Meaning no off-center LOS. But what you gain from the ziggurat/chevron is that you are in a much better position in case you get a blitz, and you don't concede the sidelines. Granted, protecting the sidelines are not that important against bashy or semi-bashy teams in the setup, but being able to captalize off a blitz is hugely important. And DE need those couple of squares extra movement for that. Granted, I in no way deluded myself that I'm a better player than the guy in the video. So help me understand how the ziggurat is not always the preferred option in all of these three matchups. Have I missed something, or am I just attributing wrong importance to my arguments? Thanks for a great video
hey man! Since recording this video I have evolved the strategy a lot, what is recorded here is still valid in many cases but I now almost exclusively use offset LOS + wide setups for elves and offset LOS+compact for bash. The considerations are: How to apply pressure How to receive as little incoming dmg as possible
@@AndyDavoBloodBowl Sorry, do you mean "for" or "against"? I.e. are you saying that if you play elves yourself, you almost always go wide defense? Thanks for the quick reply. What is your fumbbl handle if you have one? Would love to watch some of your old games. Best regards Edit: subbed to your channel
id love to see strategies that andy could recommend for teams that tend to struggle to recoup moving or progressively getting the ball up the feild such as the ogres, and dwarves just to name 2 of the many teams that struggle
Hey Danny, Sure, we can go over conceptual ideas, but feel free to check out some of the vids i have uploaded on my page to see them in action. What team value are you talking about?
A nice introduction. If people do not know though you were very quick with talking about Elf Screen. A pause and moving the figures to show would have been more informative.
Hello ive been wanting to visit warhammer world for years but I've never gone I have a few questions 1.do you have to pay for parking and is their parking? 2.Do I have to buy tickets to enter the stores?
Hi, there is a large on site car park that is free. Also entry to the stores, gaming hall, and bugmans bar is also free. The only thing you need to pay for is if you want to go in the exhibition

This is a tactical masterclass!!
Well done, thank you guys!
You're welcome, I hope to have Andy back on the channel soon!
Great stuff! Still being watched 5 years later :D
Really informative video guys, I often see people asking about formations and the like so I'll be sure to point them this way !
I was just about to comment about that Dark Elf Thrower, and I was done typing it just as you corrected yourself.
I've tried the perfect defence assymetric defence so many times and sweet when it rarely pays off !

More of these guides plz

Good luck 👍🏻

We will get Andy back on the channel and see what we can do
@@GeeksWargaming thanks :)
How important do you consider Kick as. Tournament skill? I always try to work it in as it can help a great deal forcing a certain play.
Not very important, because its going to be single use. Vs say block or dodge that you will get 8+ uses from
Do you have a guide on how to setup(offense and defense) against dwarves using wood elves...8 line 1 thrower 2 wd...
I know your covering line ups first of all. But please can we have some Cage Tactics.
I firmly suck at getting my Dwarf cage going anywhere.

Very interesting!
How do I get one of those ball coins?

Hi!! Nice vid :) where can I get a carrier token like yours? It's awesome!!
I don't think you can get that exact one, but if u attend a TT that I'm at I might have a spare that is similar
