DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Hey, thanks Buttercup! I guess you have been teaching me well and going for a bigger
weapon also helped without a doubt... Still, I'm better off with you gone to the
Isle, to be honest, as you beat me way too often for my liking. Yet, after the
previous beatings you gave me, it feels even better to beat you this time and take the
throne.
Now, unless someone returns from inaction, I will probably be fighting an arena
warrior... Hopefully I'll still be there next turn. In any case, I guess I will have
to get ready for whatever comes my way! Good luck guys,
-- NOK GORKA
SPY REPORT
You elder fighters surely remember me. The younger ones may call me Olaf
Modeen. I return to STORMCROWE once again! What's with BEUFORD T JUSTICE? He
actually beat BOOK OF THOMAS' SHADOW BLAST, and walked away with 25 more points from
the fight. Major screwup at GOING BERSERK. SNAEGH lost 19 points to AN ARENA
DOCTOR. Some new strategies, perhaps? Maybe SNAEGH will provide more easy wins...
I'm sure STORMCROWE is excited about ANGEL CAKE, the new Duelmaster from SHEWISH
BUFFET. (remember?) But when you've seen as many as I have... Advice to fighters
with a 1 will--give up fighting!
If at first you don't succeed, avoid. That'll get you in the Spyreports. The
most avoided team was BOOK OF THOMAS. In my day, no team with a 8-2-0 would scare me
off! What's the problem, AVID FANS? How well I know the feeling of being the most
challenged warrior, WORK HORSE! Don't make idle boasts, they may come back to haunt
you.
Warriors of STORMCROWE unite. You have only your games to lose! BEUFORD T
JUSTICE of REDNECKS got 25 points for removing another young punk. Tough luck, BOOK
OF THOMAS! Here's some advice: study your opponent, master many skills, fight
dirty.
Many other cities have retirement homes for aged warriors. Any plans here?
STORMCROWE is a nice place to live, but I don't like to live in nice places. Time
for my medication, so I'll leave now. Practice, practice, practice!-- Olaf Modeen

Beneath the moon, blood is glistenin'!
A grisly sight, we're happy tonight,
Watchin' all the Dark Arena fights!

All the criticals and bloody drama,
and if you're nasty you can challenge down!
Later on, by tavern fire,

to face unafraid, the challenges made,
Duelin' in that Alastari land!
Wishing all good D2 managers a Happy Holidays!
