DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Hello Seam,
The view from the throne is beautiful, someone else should try it sometime.
Maguvial was a tough nut to crack and I salute him for a great run in this arena.
After taking the throne from Mags, Bumble Rumble stepped on the sands for a shot at
the Title. Although he prepared as well as he could for our fight, he went the way of
16 others before him and was helped off the sands, bloody and broken.
Our caravan to Seam was set upon by bandits and prevented us from arriving on the
first turn here. Nonetheless, I hope another win will earn me an invite to the Isle
of the Eye as the second graduate from this great arena. If my challenge goes
through, Bumble Rumble will get another shot at the Champ. Good luck Bumble, but the
Gods are on my side!
-- Duelmaster Gilgamesh,
Deities and Demigods
SPY REPORT
Welcome to Seam, my pretties! It is good to see you once again and wonderful to have
these great gladiatorial games in our fair city. The rain has been unrelenting as I
have traveled throughout Alastari these past few weeks. I have ruined more than a few
nice pairs of shoes this week, which has been both traumatizing and joyous:
traumatizing because I love my shoes, but it is joyous because now I get to shop for
new ones. Hrmm, I wonder if I can write them off as a business expense? Ignore that
last statement and let's take a look at this week's action!
Gilgamesh has been our champion for the last few turns. He has stood tall on the
throne with an impressive 17-8-2 record. Sitting below him this turn we had a few
worthy and eligible opponents in Cardhu, Shadowdancer, Manosque Cyan, and Bumble
Rumble. Manosque Cyan and the rest of his team decided they had better things to do
this cycle than show up for fights, so he drops out of the the running. A few turns
ago, Cardhu killed Bumble Rumble's teammate Mercyfletcher. Though avenged last turn,
Bumble Rumble and Philanthrolords were not quite ready to say "We forgive you." So,
Bumble Rumble goes after Cardhu once again, eliminating both from taking the throne.
This leaves Shadowdancer, who did not sit idly by and wait for a chance, but
challenged Gilgamesh. In a shocker, Shadowdancer, Seam's top Aimed Blow, defeats
Gilgamesh, Seam's top ranked Striker. Congrats to Shadowdancer, Master Darque, and
the Darque Knights stable!
Another missing team, I'm Not Eggbert, is in our news for the turn. I'm Not Eggbert
was the most avoided squad this cycle. Darque Knights avoided them the most, which
was all for naught. The most challenged warrior this turn was Bumble Rumble, but he
was unavailable for challenges since he was settling a score with the Thirsty Thugs
stable. Maguvial gets the "Valiant Effort" medal for the turn. He challenged up 41
points to battle Loki of Deities and Demigods. Loki staved off the brave challenge in
a 4 minute bout, but it sounds like one of the turn's better battles.
There is no top team this turn. A total of 4 teams have tied for the coveted number 1
spot, all with 9-6 records. Deities and Demigods, Philanthrolords, Huckle's Cats, and
Thirsty Thugs are share the honor this turn, which equals no award for anyone. The
rankings did not change much. Huckle's Cats and Pixelbenders moved up 3 spots, while
I'm Not Eggbert's inactivity gave the stable the largest loss, dropping from 3rd to
8th.
Death was not very busy, or he just outsourced all of his work to Bandit Prince.
There were 2 Dark Arena fights and Bandit Prince got the call for each. They were
both losers anyway, and I mean that literally. The Losers guild sent Bad Timing and
Infinks to fight by torchlight. Bandit Prince got paid for a full night's work after
he dispatched both in 1 minute bouts.
The arena population has continued to dwindle since the hiatus. I pray this is not a
sign of things to come. There has not been an uncharted team or warrior in the arena
since turn 21, which is never a good sign. We hope the missing managers and teams
return, but let's not sit idly by as the numbers continue to go down. Invite your
friends, family, and hated enemies to the sands of Seam, then beat them down with
gusto! Take it for what you will, as good advice or the ramblings of a spy reporting
witch!
I hope to see all of you that remain next turn as well as some new and/or returning
faces. Which team will break from the pack and take over the top spot? Can
Shadowdancer successfully defend the throne against the offensive powers that now
occupy the Challenge Champions? Exciting times in Seam! Join us next time and be part
of the action! Until next time, my sweets.
