SKABB League

This month, I went to the BloodBowl World Cup for the first time ever. I would definitely want to go back again if it is feasible. It was an incredible experience.  Firstly, let's talk about what it is for those who don't know. The World Cup of BloodBowl requires no qualification.

Feel free to skip over them. I'm also writing this after getting back at 2am so if anything needs clarifying/there is a lot of uninterpretable w
