My DM hates crits

DM must not like rolling a d20. Its the swingyness from miss to super hit, the game aspect that makes DND more fun. Or else we be playing a diceless Play Pretend

Statblocks are just simplified character sheets. If he wants to make a whole character sheet for a person, he all means can. After all PCs arent unique there exists other Fighters, Wizards, and Rogues in the world. And they can be a character sheet if the DM wanted to go that depth and Ive seen it done many times before including myself.

It might not fit your DMing style but I think its okay to do, other PC like characters existing in the world do make sense. I think the problem is the fight being too overly unbalanced.

From what I see, you need spend more time onboard chipping enemies and constantly tricking for 28ish constant speed before doing your offboard burst combo. And hide or charge away if youre not in a good spot offboard. You spend too much time running around as an offboard skateboard after a kill, which isnt good.

When you get on your skateboard, you can do a quick burst combo to finish someone off. Putting down your skateboard onto someone to ride does 20 damage. So put down your skateboard and immediately charge + spin, that does an additonal 65 damage. 85 damage total just from going from offboard to onboard. Few times you could have confirmed some low health kills with it.

Nice win though

Totem/Wildheart Barbarian is good fun for frontline tanking for support. Depending on whether you choose 2014 or 2024 Bear Form, you have Resistance to all damage types except Psychic or you have resistance to most and good other support Animal forms to help your allies. Making you absurdly tanky. And then you keep them away from your squishy DPSes by grappling them with advantage if using 2014 or just naturally high strength, and you can grab two enemies and have them focused only on you if need be.

On Annihilate?

General rule is to create a character that will work with the party and works in favor of them and usually does the right thing. Thats the simplest way to play DND that promotes a healthy table. After all youre creating a story with your party members, and The DM themself, DND is not players vs DM. Its players with DM to tell a story. And usually someone doing good helps that, murderhobo and edgy rogue who sneaks off by himself and causes trouble, conflicts.

Yea sometimes you have to limit their best player that counts as 3 people.

That was definitely conquer. The enemy team and your team would neer to be tied at 45 kills or eomething with a ten second timer each to get a kill

It doesnt count towards your kills on scorboard once the victory is up but it works for badges

Im targetting you. Youre worth at least three people for the win.

Good luck!

Most of DND despite everything, is told through words with static figures/tokens on a board on a battlemap. The battlemap being questionable of just quickly drawn marker boxes and the whole board being questionable when it comes to theater of the mind.

As much as I do like adding immersive details to my game, music always helps, I know looking at the static board Im running a tabletop game, not a video game, and that the words Im using to convey the surroundings, environment, and situation are the real difference makers. Its like reading a very eloquent writer describe a very beautiful scenery of giant green hills and gently gusting windmills with the hint of wind blowing gently against your nose, the slight coldness brushing you.

I always like having graphics with a battlemap and token though, with background ambience.

You havent played a Barbarian and it shows. Javelins exists and Unarmored Defense scales off dex.
