SPY REPORT
Good afternoon, duel fans! Huard DePriest is here once again to tell you
everything worth knowing about Shadowspire's 294th turn. Has it really been over 10
years since this place opened? Geez, you people are getting old and remind me of my
grandparents. They smelt of peppermint and disappointment, much like many of you do
today! Okay, enough time down memory lane, let's get to the arena action for this
turn.
Moduin was leaving us for the Isle this turn, so the only surety we had in life
was a new Duelmaster. He obviously did not want to leave quietly, so Moduin posted a
challenge to Child Smasher in the Challenger Champions. A bold move, considering
Child Smasher had just killed a Lunger on turn 293. The dust settled and both
warriors were still alive. Oh yeah, Moduin was victorious. Now we move onto the new
title match since Moduin leaves with a win, which came down to a bout between No-Teeth
Keith from Shanghaied and The Leper's Hand of Big Lake Solution. It seemed like an
odd coupling to me since No-Teeth Keith was ranked so much higher than Mr. Hand.
Regardless, it was a Challenger Champion fighting a Champion. No-Teeth Keith, the
Challenger Champion, was victorious and takes on the new title of Duelmaster. He did
not get an invite to the Isle, so I look forward to a title defense on turn 295.
The most avoided team for 294 is War Machine, who were inactive. They were
avoided most by Darque Ages. The most avoided team being inactive has happened more
than a few times as of late. The most challenged warrior for the turn is Mexican Food
of Scorpio Likes:. Mexican Food was down challenged by Tomahawk from Kill Em All. No
shock! Tomahawk was the winner. The most newsworthy aspect of that story is it
wasn't even the biggest down challenge of the turn. The honor of "largest down
challenge" goes to Vlad for Rishvi's challenge against Rat Catcher. Keep up the good
work, fellows!
In what has to be the greatest example of life imitating art, Kill Phollins from
Dyslexic Music has been killed by Terminator of Kill Em All. Kill was the only "kill"
on the regular arena sands, all others took place by torchlight. Welcome back to
Hombre, who sent 3 of his warriors to the Dark Arena in his return. The Commodores' 3
deaths accounted for half the arena's death total for turn 294. Psycho Styx was sent
to the Dark Arena, but he decided not to stay. He had to face and kill Spymaster for
that to happen. I'm guessing he is going to be having a few words with Weirdo later
today.
The top 2 teams remain unchanged as Shanghaied continues to be top dog with
DeGotti holding tight at 2nd place. Darque Ages moved up 3 spots to take over 3rd,
while Pray the Gods had a slight gain to move from 5th to 4th. Rounding out the top
5, we find Kill Em All with the turn's 2nd largest gain moving from 11th to 5th. The
largest gain of the turn belonged to Dyslexic Music, who despite losing a warrior an
admirable 4-1 effort. The biggest loser for the turn? Well, there are so many to
choose from, but we will stick strictly to the numbers. The largest slip in the ranks
goes to Inebriation, who fell 6 places into 9th.
No graduates this turn, but we will keep a close eye on the Duelmaster and
Challenger Champions. Sidara introduced a new section in the Seam newsletter that I
may steal and implement here that tracks potential graduates. I'm sure she is using
magic though, so it might not be available to us, unless I can trick her into doing it
for me! We will see, I guess. Until next time, Shadowspire!
