The teaser of Blood Bowl 3's next season contains some good news: the two teams that will be joining the game next are the worst of the worst.
Blood Bowl is not balanced, and that's on purpose. It's a parody on American football, and also competitive tabletop gaming. The wildly mismatched team is part of the game's charm. The smaller, stunty teams aren't nearly as good as Shambling Undead and Lizardmen. They're born losers.
It doesn't make them any less fun to play. I own a team of halflings, and I consider every win I get to be a moral triumph. It was a pleasant surprise to see the teaser of Season 6 begin with a halfling squad. It ends with a shadow of a doom dive passing overhead. This season, we'll have two teams, and the second one is - goblins.
Each team has some advantages despite their overall weakness. The halflings have access to treemen who are basically unmovable defenders of the line. They can also throw a halfling if they get the ball. The goblins are sly cheats that bring with them a variety gadgets and weapons, from pogos up to chainsaws. And trolls.
Season 6 starts on September 10, and streamers with prerelease access have shown that there will be a special Goblin Vs Halfling community event so you can test them out without having to go up against Dark Elves or whatever.
