SPY REPORT
Well, here we are again. I'm still stuck behind this blasted desk, announcing fights
to a crowd that's far too drunk to care whether it is blood or wine staining the
sands. You cheer, I talk, and apparently that's my life now. So, let's get this over
before I lose my good cheer.
First up, surprise, surprise, Wart Hog takes the throne from MTV. Thirteen wins, eight
losses, two kills, and now an ego that barely fits through the arena gates. He's semi-
consistent, I'll give him that. He's also the champion of Niytyole, so clap loudly or
risk getting trampled by the XXX Bandits fan club.
Here's the roll call since you're all too busy spilling drinks and waving flags to
read:
--Chartered Recognition Leader: Jefe. He practiced his bow longer than his fight.
--Popularity Leader: Porto Chubb. Chubb. Popular. I'll let you process that.
--Top Team: Big Lake Bandits. Please don't be too surprised. It will hurt Den's
feelings.
XXX Bandits jumped up forty points this week. That's not a climb, that is a gallop. Someone should check to see if their blades were enchanted. They did not break into the points race, but Cruel Nights gave a noteworthy 4-1 performance. Noise and results
Don't get me started on the avoids list. Everyone is ducking someone, and it looks less like a strategy and more like children refusing to share the sandbox. But the crowd loves drama, so here I am, spoon-feeding it to you like it matters.
So, my advice? Bet on XXX Bandits if you like winning. Watch Siren's Song if you like surprises. And if you put money on The Demonic Pickles or M.U.M.ers, well, you deserve whatever misery life throws at you!
That's it. I've done my part, and the chains constraining my tongue loosen just enough to let me breathe again. Enjoy the blood, relish the noise, and breathe in the illusion of glory. I'll be back next cycle, whether either of us likes it or not. Lucky y
