DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Never thought I'd be a Duelmaster, yet here I am. The sad sack of the Rat Pak
team. LOL Not much to say today. I'm not up to throwing insults around and I don't
want you guys getting big heads with compliments. So short and sweet. Til next turn.
-- Shogun-Rat -- Sunset Duelmaster
SPY REPORT
It's me, The Unknown Spymaster, back to give you this week's Spy Report. Sit
back in your seats and we'll have more fun than a barrel of Zontanis. We now have a
new top team for all of you guys to dogpile on. NOMADIC TRIBE now holds the crown
and they are betting they can keep it. Hey everybody, watch out for POND SCUM, who
flew up 21 points in the rankings after mashing RHUKK like a melon. Keep your eye on
this guy. Ya know, some days it doesn't pay to walk out on the sands. RHUKK was
beat by POND SCUM and drops 19 points. Well here's a duelmaster that doesn't sit
back and say 'Challenge me'! SHOGUN-RAT made a challenge against MAXIMUM EL VATO
this week. It's a proud day for the BEN'S BAZAAR stable, as their warrior, MAXIMUM
EL VATO, ascended the Duelmaster's throne. Advice to bashers--never force anything,
just get a bigger halberd!
Here is other news that is of note. Here's a song for you: Who's afraid of the
big, bad PHILTHBALLS? Big bad PHILTHBALLS. Big bad PHILTHBALLS. SUNSET's afraid of
the big bad PHILTHBALLS. Tra la la la la! Okay, so I may not be funny, but catch
SEA SHANTIES' act in the arena. Those acrobats seem to be fairly deft at running
from PHILTHBALLS. And who is this RHUKK you ask, with 29 points and a 6-5-0 record.
Ooh, the tales I could tell! In a touching display by a 'touched' warrior, MANNIN
BLAK went after DARK OPTION, who was higher by 24 points. Well, when the dust
settled, MANNIN BLAK won victory over DARK OPTION.
Death is kind of like a new puppy: he's always around wanting to play. (Ha
Zontani, how's that for a wise saying?). We might as well mark the passing of ZAZ
WICKEDTWIST, who was relatively new to the arena at 4-2-1. Probably killed before
its first shave. In the 'Oops, What Have I Done?' category, SWORD'SCREAM was mashed
by ARYAGATOR, who let SWORD'SCREAM know that killing members of PHILTHBALLS is a
no-no. Here's some advice: warriors with little wit and will may encounter problems
on the trail to the Isle.
Well, there's the manager of the SUNSET giving me the 'cut' sign (or is that
'They're going to strangle you in the alley?). Well, there goes another Spy Report.
Good luck in next week's fights. Hasta la bye-bye. (Loud choruses of 'Beat it, ya
bum!')-- The Unknown Spymaster

PERSONAL ADS
Nardole -- I can see why you thought that challenge was a good idea. Luckily you have
a doctor to help you afterwards. -- Sterling Savant
Marge Arin -- That is some nasty ooze. Well, messy when mixed with all that sand
anyway. If you want to make that record of yours even messier, try challenging again
-- your teams seems to like challenging the Tribe. -- Beast Whisperer
Pond Scum -- More slime. That was close. We will probably have a chance to do that
again. -- Graz
Obnoxious -- Getting challenged and getting a win is hardly obnoxious. -- Brier
Thalia -- Given that name I kind of expected you to have first strike. Not so much.
-- Zaz
