Talk Fantasy Football

Hi there, I'm taking part in an upcoming league (BB2 video game), the first stage is a four team group with games against Khemri, Brettonians and another Skaven team.

The first match is against the Khemri, both teams are new so no additional skills on either side. I can't remember the composition of the other team, mine is 4 GR, 2 SV, thrower and rounded out with line rats.

Seeing as there's a lack of skills on both sides how should I approach the Khemri? Kick first whilst I still have 11 players standing and try to pressure him into turnovers and burning his rerolls early? With no kick skill I can't rely on kicking the ball deep, should I aim for the middle of the pitch and hope for failed pick up rolls? Try and blitz a hole in the Los and push the runners through to put TZ on the ball and hope that their dodge keeps them safe?
When I receive I plan to keep the GR running as pairs and leave the ball with one pair, keeping them screened with LR and running down the clock before running in a late TD. If the other guys drops deep are there any steps I can take to get through? I assume their lack of AG would make my passing easier with less chance of an interception.

I was hoping to face the other two teams first in order to get some skills sorted. But we can't always get what we want.

Sounds like a good plan. I think you are better off paying the Khemri first, as their lack of skills actually goes in your favour.

Bear in mind the AG makes little difference to intercepting - It'll be on a 6, just like it is for most of your team! always try to avoid an intercept attempt if you can.

Without kick, I'd always go for the centre, a touchback would be a pain for you.

Gaming Dads?

You have decent skills to start with, lots of speed and agility to face the Khemri. I'd probably pick to defend firs (mainly because I like defending more than attacking... and like to defend with 11 players while I have them). I'd take almost any chance to pop the ball if I were you. The Khemri will have issues picking up the ball and getting progress towards the td zone...

Good luck !

Thanks for the replies everyone, it's good to know I was heading in the right direction with my ideas. Hopefully I'll be able to put the theory into practice.
