If you didn’t know, here at GRUMBBL we’ve been slowing adding more and more content to not just our Team Builds, but also we’ve also made a start on the Player Builds as well! Specifically, we’ve got some Blood Bowl Player Advancement suggestions for both the Black Orc and Imperial Nobility teams, so if you managed to snag yourself the Season 2 box set (which you should, it’s pretty great!), these guides will hopefully be of some use to you.

If you haven’t seen our Player Builds yet, we’ve tweaked them to coincide with the changes to the SPP system used in Blood Bowl 2020 (or Blood Bowl Season 2 if you prefer), including a quick note in regards to Random Skill selections for each player as well as suggestions on when to save up for those more expensive Secondary Skills and Characteristic buffs. Both the Black Orcs & Imperial Nobility are brand new teams, so it’s been both fun and challenging to come up with their advancement suggestions as there’s not much from the old edition to lean on (unless you count Bretonnians…. which we sort of do).

The new system changes things quite significantly (for the better I think), so the builds really need to adapt to it, which we think we’ve done quite well. There is, as always, the comments below each build for you guys to make suggestions, or even corrections. We’ve seen plenty of those in our Team Builds and we’re very, very grateful for them as they show us options we never considered that we can add on, or just tell us that we’ve goofed a little somewhere (it happens! XD)

We hope you get some use out of these Blood Bowl Player Advancement guides and we’re already working on the next batch for you as well!

If you’re already starved for Blood Bowl content, remember to check out our Blog & News page for tactics, team ideas and general ramblings about the new edition.

We hope you all have the best 2021 that you can have, we know it’s scary out there at the moment, but please stay safe and hopefully, you can find some fun and & enjoyment from this silly little sports game of ours. Don’t forget that we’ve also begun updating our player builds for you to see which of the new blood bowl skills might be best for your players!
