DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Thanks for the welcome back, Melodias is so hospitable. But the M.C. is supposed
host the event, not take the Championship. So I expect someone else to step up and
take this spot next turn.

SPY REPORT
Greetings, warriors of STORMCROWE! Once again I've been called out of
retirement for my abilities and insights into Spyreporting. What's with SWEET
EMOTION? She actually beat KNIGHT BREED's SPACE DANDY, and walked away with 23 more
points from the fight. Major screwup at KNIGHT BREED. HARLOCK lost 17 points to
EXPOSE. Some new strategies, perhaps? Maybe HARLOCK will provide more easy wins...
Har har har! Did M.C. wimp out, or just get lazy? Anyway, he's not Duelmaster
anymore. I can barely restrain my enthusiam for DARQUE FORCES' outstanding member,
Duelmaster PAYNE ERYE. 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. How
well I know the feeling of being in the most avoided team! Don't fall out of
practive, GOING BERSERK! The bums at DARQUE FORCES couldn't face the challenges from
GOING BERSERK! No excuse for that! What do people see in ZANGETSU? His 3-3-0?
KNIGHT BREED ain't talkin', but he's got 16 points.
A fighter's lot is filled with strife, revenge, and killing. Some fighters
don't accept this. The best do. Many a warrior has met his fate in a hungover
stupor. You young rapscallions, take note!
Well, I'm pretty much through. You guys need to get back practicing. Are you
as tired of reading this as I am of writing it? Actually, I guess I'm writing it
before you read it. Oh, well. I don't want to overstay my welcome...-- Olaf Modeen
