                                      SPY REPORT

It's once again the spooky time of year here in Lapur. This week we honor 
Droolbomber's 1st Lapurian Duelmaster and Lord Protector SNORLAX of Poke' Mon and the 
city's 16th of the year. He leaves with a scary good 17 wins in 23 fight career. All 
Hail Snorlax and congrats to Droolbomber on your first! With Snorlax's exit we will 
have a new Duelmaster, I hear we have 3 favorites in the betting odds. Master Beru's 
postal warrior, the Bloke's sick warrior And Destitute Noble's pharm warrior. The 
arenas are fickle and only time will tell who will be the next to hold the title. 
Let's find out...

It's hollows eve and we have 12 teams in the ranks and only "G" and his Woodvale crew 
are perhaps out scaring the kids? From the twelve teams we have 21 fights of which 2 
are at night and 7 challenges and the rest random matchups. There were three deaths, 
the Bloke sacrificed two of his ill warriors and Vlad lost his up and coming Aimed 
Blow. Climbing the ranks to fast can come back to bite you, We salute your sacrifice. 
The fight for the title ended up being a random rematch of last cycle between APOSTATE 
POSTMAN of ARMY OF DARKNESS fighting FROSLASS of POKE' MON, with Droolbomber's ghostly 
warrior defying the odds by turning the tables and defeating Master Beru's postal 
warrior this time in a 3 minute veteran's Title duel and being my first "Fight of the 
Week." All Hail FROSLASS!

In team news, Droolbomber and his Poke' warriors impressed with a 4-0-1 result to stay 
on top. Moving from 3rd to 2nd is Unchartered Take Out and his Road Warriors after a 
3-1-0 showing. Rounding out the top 2 is Visionist and his Mid Earth crew, who jumped 
from 7th to 3rd after a 2-3-0 record. The Team on the Move is POKE' MON, who doubled 
the 2nd best by gaining 54 points. The Most Avoided Team is, well this makes sense on 
hallow eve, the Bloke and his AVOID ME! infamous gang who had 9 avoids. Newcomer Take 
Out and his fast food warriors received 6 avoids.

The challenge fights...

JAGERBOMB of LIBATIONS 6 TV challenged MAEVE MANIAC of BLACK KELTS, with Barkeep's 
energetic warrior savagely defeating Purple Sage's lunatic in a 3 minute brutal 
Challenge melee.

FLOYDTYKTU of ARCANE PHARMACY went for the gold by challenging the Duelmaster SNORLAX 
of POKE' MON and in a 2 minute duel Destitute Noble's pharma warrior fell short 
against Droolbomber's exiting warrior.

WINDLESS WHISPER of ALMOST EXACTLY challenged SUE CHEF of ARMY OF DARKNESS, with 
Vlad's breathless warrior being devastated by Master Beru's culinary warrior in a 1 
minute contest.

BRIAR of POKE' MON challenged TRY MAXXER of ALMOST EXACTLY, with Droolbomber's 
scholarly warrior assassinating Vlad's impressive apprentice warrior in a solemn 1 
minute match.

1.75L of BUFFALO TRACE '25 challenged POPPY POPPINS of BLACK KELTS, with Mr. B's 
metric warrior being bested by Purple Sage's hypnotic warrior in a 1 minute veteran's 
duel.

50ML of BUFFALO TRACE '25 challenged BAR WENCH of BLACK KELTS, with Mr. B's liquid 
warrior overpowering Purple Sage's no longer undefeated warrior in a popular 7 minute 
gruesome brawl.

SALAZZLE of POKE' MON challenged STOMPER ROOM of ALMOST EXACTLY, with Droolbomber's 
toxic warrior vanquishing Vlad's noisy warrior in a action packed 1 minute duel.

As for my 2nd "Fight of the Week" it goes to Purple Sage's upstart HERBURNIE of BLACK 
KELTS, who upset Visionist's veteran IMGUR of MID EARTH in a 1 minute mismatched bout. 
Wow! Good for you, Burnie.

In Individual Achievements...
This week's Biggest winner is of course HERBURNIE, who gained 21 points after his 
upset win and this week Biggest loser is Visionist IMGUR, who naturally lost 14 points 
after the upset loss.
The most popular style is once again Lunging and the most successful styles this week 
are Pikers and Wastes.

Well no new invites this time, so we bid a final farewell to SNORLAX and the that 
leaves one thing left to say... Enjoy your tricks and treats, 'til next time.
