So - Tarantino, Workers, and Go Big have the same number of points, but only two of them get to pass. This ought to be interesting. There's even a tiny chance of TLA making it somehow, if the other teams get really bad results.

:siren: THE PLAYOFF PICTURE :siren:

Division Champions
Subterranean Animists: IN as Champions of the Bronzestabbed Division.
Hell's Dentists: IN as Champions of the Gemclod Division.
Worse Munki: IN as Champions of the Boatmurdered Division.
The Plump Helmets: IN as Champions of the Syrupleaf Division.

Wild-Card Spots Determined
The Petting Zoo: IN as a wild card based on overall wins.
Two Chicks With Dicks: IN as a wild card based on kill differential tiebreaker.

Wild-Card Spots Yet To Be Determined
Go big and/or go home: Will be in with a home victory over Subterranean Animists in the final round. Can still get in with a loss if both A Tarantino Film and Worker Cooperative also lose.
A Tarantino Film: Will be in with a 4-2 or better home victory over Team Laser Explosion. Will be in with a 4-3 victory if Worker Cooperative does not win their match by a score of 4-0 or if Go Big loses. Can make playoff with a 4-3 loss if Go Big loses their match 4-0 and Worker Cooperative also loses.
Worker Cooperative: Needs a home victory over The Plump Helmets as well as either a loss by Go Big or a narrow victory by Team Laser Explosion. If the final scores of the matches end up just so, is quite possible that Worker Cooperative could end up requiring a tiebreaker match on a neutral site against either A Tarantino Film or Team Laser Explosion after all tiebreakers have been considered.
Team Laser Explosion: Needs a visiting victory over A Tarantino Film, plus a loss by either Worker Cooperative or Go Big.

Heavyweight Horrorshow: OUT after last round's loss.

Inspiring this sort of comradery and teamwork is what this competition is all about, I think. :hfive:

Scruples are easy to deal with. When they start giving you poo poo you should drown them in a tub of money.

On that note, there may be a tub of money in it for you if you ensure Antwoman dies horribly in the Dentists vs Petting Zoo match.

Take solace in the fact Antwoman will be the first to die. And it will be quick.

Antwoman has come a long way, but the rest of the team deserves a lot of the credit. Cowman used to be a glass cannon, run out in front and die. He toughened up with some armor and skill.

Simon couldnt hurt a fly our first 5 fights (guessing here) and now he does well.

Stephen is a deadly member still a member of our team.

1v1 Antwoman still loses to Jimbo. 2v1 she still loses to Jimbo. 3v1 she sometimes wins against Jimbo.

Its all about the teamwork... let them focus on Cowman/Belmole and pray they dont notice Antwoman and Stephen.

It's been like 36 hours so I'm starting the next round.

Tinkled: If you want two fights go ahead and start with 5 and 6:
A Tarantino Film vs. Team Laser Explosion
Worker Cooperative vs. The Plump Helmets

ZeeToo: I'll start at 1 and work down, you start at 3 (my fight vs Tinkled) and then move to the very bottom and work upwards?

I should be able to get 4 fights done today/tomorrow.

1, 2, 4, 7 look like the ones I'll be running if the above is good for everyone?

:siren: Round 18, Fight 1 :siren:

This Bites (4-13), the home team, is on the left side of the arena.
Knife Toseeu (synthorange) is a female strangler. She is empty handed and wears a bronze cap, a copper mail shirt, and copper gauntlets.
Sun Tzulander the Philomodel (Keru) is a male elf. He is empty handed and wears a leather cap, a silver mail shirt, a copper mail shirt, copper leggings, silver gauntlets, and platinum low boots.
Roland Gorchnik (Maarak) is a male human. He wields a copper scourge and wears an iron cap, leather armor, an iron mail shirt, leather gauntlets, and leather low boots.
Eyeteeth IV (Revenant Threshold) is a male werewolf. He wields a copper shield and wears an iron helm, leather armor, an iron mail shirt, iron greaves, and copper high boots.

Team 13: Heavyweight Horrorshow (7-10), the visiting team, is on the right side of the arena.
Here comes Mongo! (Endorph) is a male troll. He is empty handed and wears a leather cap, a copper mail shirt, copper leggings, leather gauntlets, and leather high boots.
ShortName (ZeeToo) is a male molemarian. He wields a copper spear and a wooden buckler and wears a bronze helm, a bronze mail shirt, a copper breast plate, bronze greaves, bronze gauntlets, and bronze high boots.
Face (Godna) is a male troll. He wields a copper two-handed sword and wears a silver cap, a copper mail shirt, an iron breast plate, iron greaves, and silver high boots.
Jakob (frankenfreak) is a male werewolf. He wields a bronze mace and wears a copper helm, leather armor, an iron mail shirt, leather gauntlets, and leather high boots.


This Bites is a 1.45 to 1 betting favorite in this match with 2462.00 dwarfbucks in total bets placed on them, compared to 1701.00 dwarfbucks for Team 13: Heavyweight Horrorshow.


Homefield on the left, size on the right.


The clash is non-bloody to start. That doesn't mean there is no damage, but not much blood was spilled. Face stabs Sun Tzu in the neck, but armor saves an insta-kill and only causes a bruise. Roland lashes Jakob's left thigh so hard that bone shatters. Knife Toseeu bites Mongo the troll up top and Mongo's guts are bruised. He is feeling nauseous.

A second lash from Roland sends Jakob to the floor with a torn calf muscle. Or maybe not floored?

Blood finally hits the floor when Mongo gores the strangler biting him and Knife Toseeu's foot is crushed.

ShortName (the slowpoke) finally arrives on the scene.


The home team really looked like they were ahead there for a second. Face gives a 1-2 combo with his huge sword and Knife Toseeu's other foot is severed, then his heart and ribs are chopped into, and finally Jakob crushes the unconscious stranglers head.

Jakob was bowled over by a charging Eyeteeth, and then the impossible happens:
Jakob is knocked over!
Jakob stands up.


Jakob, the werewolf with a shattered thigh and completely hosed up calf muscle stood back up. :monocle:

So now you see the layout of the fighters. Notice something about Sun Tzu? That's right, he's on the right side surrounded by 3 gladiators. Welcome to fucksville, Sun Tzu.

ShortName and Mongo attack the elf. Mongo sends him down to the floor, ShortName sticks his spear in an elf skull which causes too much pain for Sun Tzu to handle.


Face dodges back from Roland and casually takes off Sun Tzu's head.


Team 13 moves in on the two remaining gladiators. Roland is surrounded while Eyeteeth has his hands full of Mongo.


Twin charges send Roland and Eyeteeth to the floor stunned. Mongo gores Eyeteeth so hard that ribs shatter. ShortName stabs Roland in the leg and Roland falls to the floor. Face nearly severs Rolands foot.


Mongo thinks he's done enough against Roland and the troll spins on his heel and sends Eyeteeth stumbling backwards once... twice... thrice... fource... fice... The fuckin troll just keeps sending Eyeteeth flying backwards with charges and takedowns.

ShortName sends Roland to dreamland and Jakob crushes the humans skull.


gently caress, that's Mongo, not Face
The rest of the team goes to help Mongo. Eyeteeth was already hurt and on the defensive, so I don't expect much out of the werewolf.


Mongo shatters Eyeteeths hip, then arm and the werewolf passes out before anyone from Team 13 arrives to help. Jakob casually shatters his skull.





Team 13: Heavyweight Horrorshow wins with an easy 4-0 victory despite not being the betting favorite, and destroying homefield advantage for our first fight of the last round.

Kills:
Jakob: 3
Face: 1

Condolences on your playoff elimination AJ, I fear I may soon also know that pain.

You mentioned Antwoman's kill tally but I noticed you failed to mention her general dumbness/badness. How would you characterize dumb Antwoman and her dumb team that I thought wasn't going to make the playoffs but did in fact make the playoffs pretty easily? Would you say they are Bad Munki levels of bad?

I mean, what's with all the daggers? That's too many daggers, Antwoman.

Also, if anyone wants to make some money I am all in on for our upcoming fight against the Plump Helmets. It sounds like it might happen pretty soon so get those bets in.

The Co-Op is the home team, and I am not gonna lie the Plump Helmets have been phoning it in because we are a lock. We get mega-hammered the night before matches and show up with a hangover because ~who caaaaaares~ until the playoffs.

There is another reason we are more likely to lose but I'd as soon leave it to MyDad.

I just ran Team Laser Explosion VS Tarantino Film.

It took over two hours to run the fight.

I hate both teams so much right now. I also hate armour. I'm not even going to touch it again today, so don't get your hopes up until at least tomorrow. Now I'm going to go try and drown my spite in goat simulator.

If Jakob had secured 4 kills instead of Face getting one, he would have ended his career with exactly as many kills as the rest of his team put together. As it is, only two less than that mark tells its own story.

Sun Tzulander retires unblooded, never having killed a single opponent of the 72 it has faced.
