DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Ok. Ok. Five Titles. It is such a pleasant feeling to be a Lady
Warrior AND a Duelmistress. Nothing better.
Kudos to those Vicious Little Fishies for their big point gain.
Hammer's got them hammerin'! And biting too!
Life is not so easy on top. There are too many good warriors
pining for my Title. Won't they leave well enough alone?
But 'tis the season to be jolly, so Ho, Ho, Ho. Merry Christmas everyone!
Boudicca, DMV
SPY REPORT
The sages err'd not in their foretelling of a god descending upon JADE MOUNTAIN,
for I, Novgorodny Vir, have returned! The boys at LADY WARRIORS left the arena
dejected, after being kicked out of the top spot by VICIOUS FISH 2021. Good show!
He who laughs last didn't get the joke. Speaking of laughing at jokes, observe SAND
DANCERS. Last week they got 0-5-0 to drop by 4! VICIOUS FISH 2021 had cause to
celebrate, after BRUTAL BARRACUDA got 19 points by beating BLACK FRIDAY. Win some,
lose some. Speaking of which, PERILOUS PIRANHA was winsome, after beating LOTUS
BLOSSOM and seeing her lose 15 points. BOUDICCA successfully staved off a grab for
the roses by THE ALLIGATOR GAR of VICIOUS FISH 2021. Does JADE MOUNTAIN have no one
talented enough to dethrone her? Word has it one team in JADE MOUNTAIN is using
psychics to predict wins. They lead a charmed life!
And how sociable are JADE MOUNTAIN's warriors? Come, let us see. Perhaps the
warriors of VICIOUS FISH 2021 should take up some hobbies, as they are the most
avoided team... The warriors of VICIOUS FISH 2021 found their efforts at combat
frustrated as LADY WARRIORS apparently had more important things to do than fight.
Ah, the duel! The roar of the oppenent, the smell of the crowd! Questions are
being raised about the disposing of severed body parts in the arena. A certain
tavern in JADE MOUNTAIN would I avoid!
Leave me now, you base fools! As if buffeted by forces of nature beyond my
control, I must take my leave of this place. Like a mixed metaphor, and an overtaxed
simile, I now bid JADE MOUNTAIN farewell-- Novgorodny Vir
