DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
A three-time Duelmaster always leaves her mark on the arena as she is elevated to
Lord Protector and The Isle. Here is mine:
12(+1)-9-11-15-17-6-15 SL
Normal endurance; Good damage
Bonused +4 Decise, +2 Initiative
17-8-1, 3 DM Titles
Faves: SC, mod/low, learns initiative
I shall leave you with these words of advice:
Point to your foe.
Open your eyes.
Jab hard.
Cover your smile.
-- Umbrella, DMIII
SPY REPORT
UMBRELLA successfully defended the throne against URAKO WITSTEALER, but was not
able to coordinate passing it to teammate POOL CUE. The top warrior entering the turn
remained the top warrior after the turn. Congratulations, Duelmaster ADIOS AMIGO.
But no adios yet! ADIOS can keep the throne for another turn if he can extend his
winning streak to 3 in a row. (Looking at his record? Good Luck!)
But winning streaks we DO have going right now! WITCHING HOUR hit #5 AND is
still a Challenger Initiate. In fact, another down challenge like this turn (-20) and
WITCHING HOUR could be 6-0 and remain a challenger initiate! This is the way to do
it! Stay low, keep winning! BALKO STONEFALCON also made a down challenge. Perhaps
BALKO will receive the like next turn in revenge (happy dance).
In spite of AFTER MIDNIGHT's downchallenging ways, USEFUL WEAPONS is the most
avoided team this turn, receiving 8 avoids (AFTER MIDNIGHT only got 6). Of course the
most challenged warrior is one of the MIDDLE WAY dinosaurs, this time MANDIN ORWELL.
I guess a 50 arena fight loser is pretty attractive! I'd even recommend up challenges
to face a warrior like that, especially one with no kills. FIRST DATE was the lucky
challenger. No win or kill, but perhaps the learning made up for it (often does
against dinosaurs). BTW, Mandin, you need more than just skills! Personally I'd
recommend retirement and a new career. Maybe if you got a useful weapon, you might
be better, too.
While Assur said he'd be back soon, I'm calling him out as a liar! It will be at
least 8 weeks from when he said 'soon.' That isn't soon if it does end up being 8
weeks. And he isn't back yet!
Lady Smith appears to be ill, having to hold her nose while speaking. I wish her
lots of rest and fluids and a speedy recovery!
Jorja isn't witty but her warriors sure are!
I'm almost certain AFTER MIDNIGHT isn't run by Otis, but perhaps I'm wrong. From
the personals, they seem to be ready to clean clocks. I know Otis does that for a
living. I sure hope they aren't trying to put Otis out of business. That would be
mean! Let him have the clock business!
And my last comment this turn. Slashing UMBRELLAs using scimitars?!? What kind
of nonsense is that? I guess I'll ignore that top part of the DM column. The bottom
part makes much more sense for what I've seen umbrellas do!
