Dodgy start leaves Underland with tough fight back!

Posted by minionforhire on August 22, 2008

Cabal-o-vision experts have been looking at the white division with interest, as the draw just seems not to favour certain teams.  The dark elves, the Dodgers, for example, have been drawn into their first two matches against Dwarf teams, noted for their specific training at dealing with dodging opponents.  90% of our viewers responded to the question “What team would you least like to oppose if you were called the ‘Dodgers’” with “Dwarves.”

On the other hand, the mysterious head coach of the dodgers seems unfazed by the stunty challenge, as his team heads into tonight’s match against Underland with a squad of only 11 players and having only had one team training session before the match.  Standard tactics seem to be to “Elf this one up.”
As the teams line up on the pitch, Underland, fresh from their victory against the chaotic Friendly Chaps look unimpressed by their agile elven opponents. The weather is clear, and the kick is good…  Very good, the looks like it’s landing in the Dwarven End Zone!  The dwarves short legs are going to be a hindrance there, but they do seem very dangerous over short distances, as they get the half moving with a Quick Snap.  The Front line begins to do what they do best, hammering into the Elves.  The Dwarven Runners hustle back, but it’s going to be the Blitzers who have to man-up and take charge of the ball.

Underland Vs Friendly Chaps: Cabal-O-Vision Match Report

Posted by minionforhire on August 8, 2008

We at Cabal-o-vision always strive to bring you, the viewer, the best insight into the minds of the players you watch and adore. Today, we managed to sneak a scrying ear into the Underland dressing room for Rhy Khín’s pre-match pep talk. Visual proved impossible after our warlock burned out his third eye and rolled around screaming “the Horror, the HORROR!”

Underland Arms [Khin] Right, lads, I have a plan.
You know the way our opponents are 8-ft high Chaos warriors?
[chorus] Aye?
[Khín] And we’re 4-ft high dwarves with horns on our helmets?
[chorus] Aye!
[Khín] And we’ve checked that there are no Slaaneshi warriors on their team, who’d enjoy that sort of thing?
[chorus]AYE!
[Khín] I think you know what to do, lads.
[Magnus Magnusson, Blitzer] They do not like it up ‘em, sir!
[chorus of cheers]
