Blood Bowl 2020 Lizardmen Tactics and Team Building

[BrotherSutek]

Will have to let @Mrs. NIGHTBRINGER know . She plays Wood Elves... but only in WHFB 8th edition.

Why does that make one a horrible person?

Wood Elves have been a long time strong army but one that isn't like any other. In Bloodbowl they have been able to run around slow teams, wardancer are one of, if not the best, players in the game. In fantasy they don't usually rank up so people hate on them. Of course in fantasy I double down on that and play an almost completely evasive army. Mrs. NIGHTBRINGER is a lady of taste and refinement I see.

Block, guard, and mighty blow are the three skills you really want on every saurus; it's up to you which order you go for it.

Does this recommendation change at all now that all of those skills are subject to the elite skills tax in the Season 3 rules?

Somewhat, those are still the 3 skills that they want the most, though you're less likely to want all 3.
If you're worried about TV bloat, I would say one should get Frenzy, which will help with crowd surfing, and even one turn touchdowns, if you can make it work.

I would say Grab is another option, it will help to create openings for your skinks to run through.

You could also do Tackle on one saurus and pair that guy with the Kroxigor, for the prehensile tail. If both are marking someone, they're not dodging away easily. But that's pretty niche and would likely only do that on an AG or star heavy league and you absolutely need to bully a Griff or a Wardancer.

And finally you could take Brawler as a poor man's Block. Most likely you're still going to want to take Block and Guard on most of them. They're a good enough team that I am less worried about that extra TV for elite skills.

Crowd surfing? Pushing a player into your player to move him along??

No that's chain pushing. But that does help with the one turn touchdown, crowd surfing is a term used for pushing an opposing player into the crowd.

So how does crowd surfing allow you to get enough movement to land a one turn touchdown?

Two separate thoughts. Chain pushing can give you the one turn touch down, crowd surfing is an easy way to get rid of an annoying opposition player, like a chaos dwarf blocker, or someone with blodge, push them into the crowd they're out for at least the drive.

The extra block gets you an extra push for the one turn touchdown as shown here: https://fumbbl.com/help:LMOTT

Interesting. Quite the setup, but pretty spectacular if it goes off! Have you scored such a touchdown before?

All of my one turn touchdowns have come from goblins so far, but throwing a doom diver is a lot less technical!
