No Wood elves?

[Yank]

I mean they are a basic team.
Damm I wish I hadnt bought the game.

I feel you, but the teams available in game are listed on the store page.

I am a big fan of bloodbowl, played a lot when I was a youg aduld in real tournements, played a lot on both BB1 and BB2... I mostly play wood elves. I knew from some comments that some races werent available but didnt expect to not see the wood elves... as important as the orcs, dwarfs or humans as a basic bloodbowl team.

To be fair they weren't in BB2 day one either, in fact I think this has more teams at launch than BB2 and you do have two other elf teams to play until they are available. I'm sure it won't be long before they arrive.

Not even undead are in the game... and they should be here too.. though I think preseason isn't easy on elves.

Wood Elves, Lizardmen, and others may are expected to be part of the seasonal updates.

And see https://www.bloodbowl-thegame.com/single-blog/9 for the roadmap.

Thanks :)
I will wait for the updates before playing this game :)

I am also waiting for the Woodies.
They were in the datamined teams so there is a good chance we see them this year.

No more fearlessly leaping into cages with the new rules though unfortunately and a pretty heavy passing nerf for the team.

Yes but you can pretty much guarantee ag5 str 4 wardancer now who could just dodge in.

Passing was always meh, if anything it nerfes non elf teams more as last ditch effort pass plays are now harder for them. You could still have a thrower for that 1ttd

Don't get me wrong, I'm still excited to see how they play with the new rules but it's a bit of a bummer that the linemen are still expensive but now can't pass very well and although stats are easier to come by ag and st are the least likely and most expensive to get. I think having both would be a ball ache to get. It also means they have a built-in garbage skill now.

Oups hadnt read the new rules...
Indeed Wood Elves have a lot of change... I didnt use often the Wardanser's jump, mostly because it's a risky move most of the time but the fact that you could forced the other team to play against it. And you always had the possibility in last resort...

Guess I'll need to rethink my tactics.

Ha, if you thought it was risky before, you definitely won't be using it now! It's true though you can now save for a stat and if they get PA or AV maybe give them mighty blow or something. I can just see them becoming horribly expensive very quickly now.

[Grimmsch]

Yes Wood Elves got hit. I will still play them regardless.

It's not just the Leap changes, it's also the removal of Sprint from their ST 2 Catchers, overall nerf to linemen passing play, and the slight cost increase for important players, all with nothing gained in return.

Dark Elves are probably better now.
