SPY REPORT Good day, friends and fiends, welcome to your friendly neighborhood spyreport. I doubt DRAGONHEAD will ever be the same. It seems the training can make the difference, as QUARTERFLASH is pushed out of top team by ANTIQUATED LEGACY, who came from 2nd with a 4-1-2 this turn. Now keep the taverns open late tonight, for there are sorrows to drown for OUTLAWS, whose 0-0-0 this turn dropped them by 4 into 9th. ARTIC FIRE stable has parlayed this turn's 5-0-0 into a 3 space move up the rankings. This brings them up to 3rd place. Good work, guys! The ANTIQUATED LEGACY guild has had a 4-1-2 turn and deserves to be watched in the future. You never know where this kind of thing can lead. And let's see, SPIKE fought DANGEROUS CRIMINAL and gained 18 points and contributed to QUARTERFLASH's 5-0-0. This week's Duelmaster bout was between GUARDIAN and our Duelmaster PORKY PIG, making a Bloodfeud. Defending his title for another turn, PORKY PIG kept TEAM JUSTICE's warrior, GUARDIAN, from claiming the throne. Can someone confirm a rumor for me? I hear the top team makes their losing fighters do dishes at The Warty Toad until they win. Maybe? The crowd's roar, the smell of iron and leather, mixed with sweat, what more could a warrior ask of life? Well, besides that. I also notice that the OUTLAWS stable was the most avoided team this turn. Come on DRAGONHEAD, what are you afraid of? And avoiding OUTLAWS more than any other team we find MEAT YOUR MAKER. DRAGONHEAD, are we going to accept, or respect this sort of thing? The most challenged warrior this turn was TEAM JUSTICE's warrior GUARDIAN. More fighters challenged him than challenged the Duelmaster! The Dark Arena is for those who cannot win, not who cannot lose with grace. Dignity in life or death is the warrior's creed. Kudos go out to PORKY PIG this turn, for revenging MEAT YOUR MAKER's bloodfeud against TEAM JUSTICE's warrior GUARDIAN. Well done. We'd like to remind certain teams not to rob the graves of their enemies. You know who you are; and it's considered rude. Remember, blood on the purple robe does not change it from a purple robe. Dare to fight bravely. Always good to rest in DRAGONHEAD, but never good to wear out my welcome. Look for me in future turns.
