2/10/2024 0 Comments Orc star players blood bowlUnfortunately, the Black Orcs had unhealthy win rates against the remaining sixteen teams in Blood Bowl (<45%). Notably, movement 7 is the best any of those teams can put on the board and only Undead can field more than two of those players. With the exception of Necro, they are also all slow bash teams where the poor speed of the Black Orc team is less of a liability.īlack Orcs did post healthy win rates (45-50%) against seven further teams: Chaos Dwarves (48.8), Imperial Nobility (48.3%), Vampires (48.1%), Goblins (48.1%), Norse (47.6%), Undead (46.6%) and Renegades (45.7%). Necro has the best global win rate of those teams at 49.9%, followed by Khorne at 47.8%. As stated in previous posts, those aren’t exactly high performing teams in 2022. They only managed positive records against three other teams Chaos Chosen (52.3%), Ogres (51.5%) and Necro (50.4%). They had >55% win rates against Nurgle (62.5%) and Khorne (57.1%). What we are looking at is consistency and ability to regularly compete with other teams, particularly amongst average coaches.īlack Orcs didn’t regularly take the scalp of any strong teams in 2022. Like any team, well coached, they can beat anyone on their day. The short answer to that is of course yes. They have all of the weaknesses of Lizards with no speed to make up for it. The team has never inspired me to play them. However, I think I had one practice game with them just after the new edition came out. The models are great and I have a soft spot for a bit of greenskin (I had a Warhammer fantasy army of Orcs and Goblins back in the day). What’s my bias? I have a fully painted Black Orc team. How bad? I take a deep dive below into their performances in 2022 looking at matchups, top coaches and Eurobowl 2022. Their global 43.1% win rate in 2022 is truly bad. In my look at the global tournament numbers for 2022 in a previous post, I singled out Black Orcs for some special treatment.
