I was looking at some old rankings and I came across this:
Duelmaster with most Kills
BIG STRONG MAN (18-6619) of THUNDR + LITENING (22)[23-31-14,118] Arena 18, Turn 415
THAT IS IMPRESSIVE!!!
Do any of you guys remember him? What was his fighting style. IO am suspecting aimed blow. Maybe an insanely slow basher? |

Most likely an immortal warrior whose Manager kept challenging the Dark Arena.
That would explain the poor record and number of kills. |

Parry Lunger and YES, immortal before the rule about immortals not being allowed to challenge the Dark Arena until their graduation fight |

Okay.
I was thinking he was an aimed blow that developed late in its career. |

One more thing.
Wouldn't it have made more sense to challenge a veteran warrior to increase the chance of learning more skills? |

I remember watching that guy in basic. I'd be interested to know who each arena's historical "real" kill champion is. In other words, most non-DA kills before graduation. |

Not when one is going for maximum kills and a record. |

well - there is no downside to a DA challenge - win get skills - lose and you get a replacement rollup
I did it for a while in 78 with an immortal guy - got to 5 kills and got bored - plus he was about to start getting pps |
