Why mess with a winning strategy? Lightly Whipped has the best streak in arena history going. It would be a terrible shame to break it.

Oh God. In our shots at greatness, we have created something terrible.

Given the streak Worse Munki have had, Lightly Whipped look to be almost their their exact opposite. The antiparticle to Worse Munki's particle.

Have we created BEST MUNKI?

:siren: Round 11, Fight 5 :siren:

Hell's Dentists is on the left side of the arena.
Madmartigan (gbuchold) is a male molemarian. He wields an iron pick and a wooden shield and wears leather gauntlets.
The Abominable Gladiator (Pickled Tink) is a female yeti. She is empty handed and wears a bronze cap, a bronze mail shirt, a copper mail shirt, copper gauntlets, and copper high boots.
In Like Flynn (grobbendonk) is a male dwarf. He wields an iron pick and a wooden shield and wears an iron helm, an iron mail shirt, a copper breast plate, copper greaves, iron gauntlets, and copper high boots.
Krog Bonesmasha (astus) is a male elf. He wields a copper war hammer and a wooden shield and wears an iron helm, leather armor, iron greaves, iron gauntlets, and iron high boots.

Go big and/or go home is on the right side of the arena.
Snowshank Redemption (A good poster) is a male yeti. He wields a copper large dagger and wears an iron mail shirt, copper greaves, and copper gauntlets.
Tyler Durden is Hobbes (habituallyred) is a male tigerman. He is empty handed and wears leather armor.
3 Wolf Moon Shirt (iLonie) is a male werewolf. He wields an iron two-handed sword and wears a leather cap, leather armor, leather leggings, leather gauntlets, and leather high boots.
Slam Whale Willy (potatomanjack) is a male werewolf. He wields a silver mace and a wooden buckler and wears a leather cap, a copper mail shirt, leather leggings, leather gauntlets, and leather high boots.



Hell's Dentists is a 1.52 to 1 betting favorite in this match with 7816.00 dwarfbucks in total bets placed on them, compared to 5143.00 dwarfbucks for Go big and/or go home.




The visiting team has a distinct size advantage. Lets see if Krog and Flynn can keep up with the big boys.



Krog comes out of the gate strong and smashes 3 Wolf Moon in the guts with his hammer. Madmartigan swings his pick into Hobbes (new owner, new name) knee and Hobbes falls over. Hobbes barely reaches the floor before his fist lashes out and bruises Madmartigans guts.


Abominable punches Hobbes' hand and explodes it into gore.



Flynn swings his pick into Hobbes other foot, and Hobbes passes out from the pain.



Flynn picks on Snowshank next and grounds the huge yeti with a strike to his calf. Flynn swings his pick again and 3 Wolf Moon's tail flies off in another direction. Snowshank stabs Madmartigan in the leg, and then Abominable punches his hand into paste. Snowshank passes out from pain as well.

Slam Whale Willy is have a hell of a time against Krog. Bruises, blocked blows... Nothing is going right for that werewolf.

Anyone think the 2 werewolves will win a 4v2?


3 Wolf Moon stabs Abominable in the hand but that's all before Madmartigan chops off Snowshanks head.


Flynn's swing is just a hair slower, but Hobbes gets the same fate.


3 Wolf Moon plants his sword in Madmartigan and then Abominable gets ahold of him. "Hang on lady. We going for a ride."


Flynn catches 3 Wolf Moon's ear before Abominable charges and sends the smaller werewolf to the floor.

Krog arrives on the scene and jumpkicks his face. 3 Wolf Moon's eyes roll up in his head and he drops to the floor. Flynn takes his head.



Slam Whale, mostly ineffective till now has his work cut out for him.


Abominable quickly catches him and bends his arm backward, breaking his elbow. Two or three more bending limbs sends Slam Whale Willy unconscious.



Flynn takes his head.







Kills:
Flynn: 3
Madmartigan: 1

I'll be doing a divisional breakdown at the end of this round. This plus the one from round seven should give us a good read on the final interdivisional.

Have you heard about First Dog? It's a very good comic I just love.

Also, wear your bike helmets kids. I copped several blows to the head but my helmet left me totally unscathed.



Finally you should check out First Dog as it's a good comic I like it very much.

t shirts are bourgeoisie.
health care plans are bourgeoisie.
brain injuries are like calluses on the hands of our comrades, and serve as our medals, as current party orthodox supports.
