So, starts like baseball with the bat/ball combination, has both offense & defense trying for the ball once offense is in scoring position (about third base, from my take of things) then offense has to run the football side of things (nobody’s going to try to tackle ‘ol GC) up to the soccer/hockey goal area. I think I fully understand the game now.
Let’s not forget the most important thing here: that goalie is using a sword. Against a gelatinous cube.
Sword. Gelatinous cube. Sword. Gelatinous cube.
Will we get a splitting?
You fools. Do you lightly forget that Cube is married?!?!?! He’d never be so callous as to cheat upon his beloved wife of several levels and crassly spawn offspring with one such as a mere troll. Nay I say he shall deftly consume the troll and bring the teammates that mourn yon pitiful trolls loss home for his beloved wife to feast upon.
GC speaks:
“While I am a type of the general category of Ooze, I am not, in fact, an actual ooze, nor am I a pudding. Unlike these lesser beings, I do not go to pieces when attacked by edged weapons, and I would thank you not to confuse me with such. Oh, and stop moving, I touched you.”

I think this ball got a little less base, pH content notwithstanding…
What an acid wit you have!
I just want, no–need you to know that I love you for that. This entire webcomic has come together for that line and you set us up the bomb.
Hmph! Cube’s always snackin’ on the job.
was this snack finger licking’ good?
Like mano from heaven.
(Alright, that’s a stretch, even for me)
You were reaching, huh?
Likewise Rusty. (How did he rust a metal object by hitting it with another object?)
I think that’s face-blood from some idiot, not rust.
I agree with Ulzgoroth that it’s blood. Though Rusty did have has antenna wrapped around the bat to hold it so it’s not impossible for it to be rust.
Yeah, that appears to be blood from Sir Malevolus’ face from Rusty’s ball’s first bounce. 😉
(also, can I call out the great attention to detail in the dialogue where Roxy’s announcing Cube is “face to faces with…”? XD
Well, he is a quick lime jello — fast metab, always hungry

There is no understanding the rules here.
Yeah, I think this is Calvinball.
Make the rules up as you go along, enjoy the game as best you can, it’s going to be a wild ride … 😉
Calvinball has less blood
Plus no doing the same thing twice, this is probably more forgiving of repeat tactics.
And you know that, how? 😀
Where do you think the Gnomes fit in Golf and Basketball?
They have to putt whenever they earn a penalty shot, and do a free throw challenge if there’s a tie?
Guess even in the middle of a game, Cube’s always up for some finger food.
“Gleam that cube”. Obscure movies ftw, Mr. R!
Someone else to feel old with!
Arthritic high five! Ow!
And I’d like to thank you for bringing up such a painful memory. What’s next, you gonna pour lemon juice in a paper cut?
Little did I know that I would get my Blood Bowl fix reading this comic.
‘face to faces’. Heh – almost missed that one. 😀
and I almost thought this was a dirty joke *blushes*
OOOh, and acid damage doesn’t regenerate quickly… that’s gonna sting..
I just got the “hand off” joke from panel 5!
I want to see the spike-ball land on the goalie’s back as he accidentally falls past the goal line.
Probably the only one who gets that reference, but I seriously can’t stop thinking about it.
Cube eat goalie?

Sword. Gelatinous cube. Sword. Gelatinous cube.

Cube’s gonna get some offspring…from a sports groupie? (the sword)
“Well, you see, when a gelatinous cube and an edged weapon love each other very much…”
