Juriel Posted February 20, 2013 Author Share Posted February 20, 2013 If we're gonna start house-ruling, I think you'd better start at the whole base of BB. There's no point buffing up the winners, if in persistent leagues the only smart picks remain the high-TV-favoring teams, like Chaos and Elf varieties.

dode Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 I'm not a massive fan of added SPP for the winner (hence the perhaps), but added cash combined with a bank rule would allow the elves to stay at high tv longer while making little difference to the high tv bashers and allowing the hybrids to carry and keep a bench.

Pidpad Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Well, we do have extra cash for people who do (really) well in the divisional prizes and that money makes a difference (like letting me get a 2nd blitzer last season). TV is way way easier to keep up than having an actual bank :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards 4 3 3 2 4 2 2

Some of the Elven teams perhaps, but Chaos? The win percentages tell a different tale. Data up to date as of posting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

The win percentages tell a different tale. That's the same case as with Orcs - all the tools in the world can't help when the coaches are lacking. :P 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jakerbeef Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Ah but Orcs aren't quite the easy mode some make them out to be. Durable and capable yes, but some teams benefit from Doubles and Stat boosts more. Elves, Lizards and the regen-crowd for example. It's not the win percentage people take issue with Chaos. It's the dead percentage! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallows Bait Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 But yet "You need Chaos to win" is the argument that comes out of people's mouths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
straume Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Still: Fact is both Orc and Chaos have won OCC. Orcs even with different managers. Then add the durability. And add the edge Chaos has against other bashers. So clearly among the better teams and hence easy-mode Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards
dode Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Exactly, Gallows. And players are meant to die in sufficient numbers. They can either die on the pitch or we can have ageing back (yuk!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

Let's not even start to look at the number of wins, of course...Durability and "edge" is rather irrelevant when it doesn't lead to wins. "Better" is an undefined concept in your head at the moment.

Jakerbeef Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Certainly and perhaps Lizard coaches are winning a little more than expected? :P Tier 1 seems perpetually full of them and they bring home the bacon as much as Elves. Not so with the greenskins. Just for comparison... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
