Hello everyone, my wife is new to the game and I haven't play in awhile but we are both getting our teams ready for the Chaos Cup soon. Feel free to post any comments on what you do or don't like. There is 5 games and injuries reset and skills come after reach game. Thanks!

My Dark Elf team list

2 Blitzers @ 100k = 200k
1 Witch Elf @ 110k = 110k
1 Thrower @ 90k = 90k
7 Line Elves @ 70k = 490k
2 Rerolls @ 50k = 100k
1 Fan Factor @ 10k = 10k

Total 1000k

Her Wood Elf team list

2 Wardancers @ 120k = 240k
2 Catchers @ 90k = 180k
1 Thrower @ 90k = 90k
6 Line Elves @ 70k = 420k
1 Reroll @ 50k = 50k
2 Fan Factor @ 10k = 20k

Total 1000k

2 dancers
1 thrower
7 lineelves
1 reroll

Is the treeman, star player Deeproot Strongbranch that costs 250K?

For the Dark Elves I like to go with:

4 Blitzer
7 Lineelf

2 ReRolls
1 FF

That roster worked quite well for me at tournies.

I think you won't need the thrower, since each LineElf makes a decent passer. The Witchelf is nice to have IMHO in a tourney situation not worth the 10k gp more over a Blitzer.
Her AV of 7 makes her a target. And with only 2 Blitzers it is difficult to support and protect her.

I used the 4 Blitzers roster in 3 tourneys:

ended up 15/44, 27/50 and 1/10.

Standard WE line up is 2 WD, 1 Catcher, 8 Line, 2RR & 1 FF (I think). I reckon that's a good solid lineup for a first tournament.

For DE I think 2 blitzers/1 witch is marginally better against some teams than the 4 blitzer lineup but both work okay. DE are a weak tournament team anyway.

Thanks for the tips everyone. I hope to change that "DE are a weak tournament team" very soon. Laughing

I'd go with 3 Blitzers and 1 Witch Elf if the tournament doesn't require FF, and frankly I find no purpose to FF in a tournament in the first place since tournaments typically reset casualties so there should be no need for income to offset damage.

The reason to go with a FF of 1 is that most tournaments use the LRB. Which demands to take a FF of at least one at team creation. So this 10k is fix.
I personally have not been to a tournament where no FF was needed.
If you are not forced to have FF the 3 Blitzer, 1 Witch would definitely be an option.
But I wouldn't take less than 3 Blitzer and won't drop 1 RR for a witch Wink

I'd even consider the 3 Blitzer start for a League: 3 Blitzers, 8 Linemen, 1RR, and 9FF. Play conservatively, take Leader for the first Double roll, buy an Apo at first chance, and start saving cash for more Positionals.
