It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the clash and bustle of the weekly TROCAR games. Warriors--remember that glory waits always around the corner! Witness how this week BASH BROS BATHROOM went 2-0-0 to move up 3 in the rankings. IMAI caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as she skillfully bested VENOMOUS CONCUBINE and was awarded 22 points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, LEGION put down LARKIN SAND, causing her to lose 17 points of recognition in the process. As is fitting, the most sought after warrior on the challenge boards this week was none other than Duelmaster OAK himself. The city has turned out in honor of URDNOT WREX, for with his arena victory he may now lay claim to the highest position in the city! Would you believe that over half of the old women in TROCAR seem to feel that they could fight better than you gladiators? I have been in deep conclave with my spies who watched all that has recently transpired. Indeed there is much I would report. My inside sources tell me that the team to beat in TROCAR these days is MASS EFFECT. At least, most blades in town are looking to avoid them. Apparently the stalwarts of BASH BROS BATHROOM are catching the bulk of jests down at the challenging board for their large share of the avoids. Is not Death a warrior's foremost adviser? Warriors, may this counselor stand ready at your right hand forever! Fate is a fickle mistress. She showers the miserable with fortune but sets enemies against the victorious. Remember this! The girls are as pretty in TROCAR as ever I remembered them....and the fighters as ugly! Don't let your reputation slip! More than a sharp eye must I keep, indeed a stout pair of legs must I keep as well! The endless paths of Alastari await me! Till next we meet remember - the pen is mightier than the sword, but a maul is a different story!-- Zontani Sharp Eyes DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME URDNOT WREX 3119 14 0 0 164 MASS EFFECT (332) CHALLENGER CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -CHINA WHITE 3214 16 8 1 97 BOOK OF THOMAS (341) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME ELM 3206 17 13 0 90 TREES (340) -RUSSIAN LULLABY 3213 18 4 0 88 BOOK OF THOMAS (341) OAK 3250 12 9 0 88 TREES (340) BATHTUB RING 3341 8 3 0 84 BASH BROS BATHROOM (331) IMAI 3356 5 0 0 81 CRUX (352) CHALLENGER ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME FIR 3251 12 9 2 63 TREES (340) KORILL SAI 3154 11 29 0 62 TRADERS OF TROCAR (252) -MAGIC POTION 3321 5 0 0 60 BOOK OF THOMAS (341) DILIAN HALLIE 3328 9 9 0 57 TRADERS OF TROCAR (252) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME JACK 3123 9 5 0 47 MASS EFFECT (332) LEGION 3121 7 6 0 44 MASS EFFECT (332) SMALL TAMER 3181 10 13 0 43 TRADERS OF TROCAR (252) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME FALLEN TOWEL RACK 3319 6 10 0 33 BASH BROS BATHROOM (331) SPECIES 37 3163 8 3 0 30 MASS EFFECT (332) LARKIN SAND 3344 6 6 0 24 TRADERS OF TROCAR (252) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME UPAS 3366 2 0 0 22 TREES (340) BAY 3351 3 1 0 21 TREES (340) DA'UD SHEEN 3348 3 6 0 16 TRADERS OF TROCAR (252) THE ILLUSIVE MAN 3188 1 7 0 10 MASS EFFECT (332) '-' denotes a warrior who did not fight this turn.
