Join the PacNW Blood Bowl community on 10/11/2025 at the second Swooper Super Cup! DB Swooper has made a tournament for the Stunties, with a three-round tournament at W.O.W. (717 SE Main Portland, OR). The Super Cup is a CULT sanctioned minor, and is also NAF approved (pending). DB is charging $20 per coach, with proceeds going to awards, Ordo Fanatics, and CULT. All released teams from the Blood Bowl rulebook, Almanacs, Teams of Legend, and Spike journals released prior to 9/30/2025 will be allowed (Teams of Legend that have been replaced cannot be chosen, e.g., Chaos Dwarfs; you must use the newer roster). The May 2025 Games Workshop FAQ & Errata applies to this event. Coaches will have 2.25 hours for each game. As normal for Ordo Bowl events, if coaches are not beginning the second half of the game by 1.25 hours into to the game, then both coaches must use four-minute timers (mandatory). DB has limited his Super Cup to 18 coaches; any demand over 18 will be added in pairs; meaning, if a 19th coach wants to play, they will only added when a 20th coach has also been added. A NAF membership is required to play in DB's Super Cup.
Team Build
Coaches are not required to play Stunties, but DB has his favorites, and is incentivizing the little guys to come out for a day of debaucherous mayhem. The Swooper Super Cup is loosely following the Stunty Slam 16 team build rules from the Waterbowl folks in the UK. Coaches may hire 0-2 Star Players (Star Player tandems like The Swift Twins count as two Star Players). Coaches must select eleven non-Star Players before hiring a Star. The Star Player Highlander rule is active.

After the final round, players on the same points will be separated by the following tiebreakers:
Head-to-Head
TD Difference + CAS/2 Difference
TD Difference + CAS Difference
Sonneborn-Berger (opponent’s score) – Strength of Schedule as determined by Tourplay.net
TD Difference
CAS Difference
Other than Head-to-Head, the final standings in Tourplay.net will be our final standings regardless of factors like scoring not matching the points above, or, the tie-breakers above giving a different result than Tourplay.
This is due to Tourplay determining Sonneborn-Berger score, and the Monrad Swiss method having an impact on standings.
Tournament Administration
Swooper Super Cup will be using Tourplay.net for administration. All coaches are required to bring an Internet-enabled device to live record their games. All roster builds will be hidden until registration is closed, two days before the tournament.
