In fact, it looked like most of the action was in the Dark Arena. Maran ten Palan SPY REPORT Greetings, warriors of DAL SHANG! Once again I've been called out of retirement for my abilities and insights into Spyreporting. What's with LINDIS TYL SARRO? She actually beat DAL SHANG's CAPTIAN LENSAR, and walked away with 17 more points from the fight. Major screwup at SAND DANCERS. KALDAN TEN KARAN lost 1 points to NOCALLLISTEXEMPTION. Some new strategies, perhaps? Maybe KALDAN TEN KARAN will provide more easy wins... I can barely restrain my enthusiam for SCRABBLE's outstanding member, Duelmaster XYLOID. I suppose you want to hear some rumors and dirty gossip about your fellow fighters? Tough! If at first you don't succeed, avoid. That'll get you in the Spyreports. DAL SHANG thinks SCRABBLE and their 14-2-1 is too much! If at first you don't succeed, give up... The bums at BASH BROS EVANGELIST couldn't face the challenges from SCRABBLE! No excuse for that! Warriors of DAL SHANG unite. You have only your games to lose! Here's some advice: study your opponent, master many skills, fight dirty. Well, I'm pretty much through. You guys need to get back practicing. DAL SHANG is a nice place to live, but I don't like to live in nice places. Remember--a good fighter needs both good skills and good luck.
