Fight Night - November 21

Malice Shepherd (3),Oku Ghost (2) and Paytrok Ghost(1), this week’s finalists.

Fighters were pitted against each other under the classical tournament system this week and matches were as follows:

Round One:

Combatants Weapons Map Winner
VoidTraveller Seetan Flayer
Raze Repine Flayer
? VoidTraveller Seetan

Remarks: Lots of poison and healing on both fighters as Raze was chased down by VoidTraveller, finally succumbing to poison damage.

Oku Ghost Crowbill
Malice Shepherd Flayer
Mousetrap Malice Shepherd

Remarks: Combattants had their share of hiding and heavy fighting in the pits – a tight fight finding Oku down in a pit after one last skirmish in a pit trap.

Enenra Ghost Flayer
Zeroyel Katsu Clobbering Stick
Vietnam Enenra Ghost

Remarks: Corner skirmishes, tight fighting with minimal trap triggers. Poison gas on Zeroyel twice near the end contributed to his demise.

Paytrok Ghost Flayer
Jaster Berkmans Kidney Burster
The Gap Paytrok Ghost

Remarks: Minimal traps for most of match.  Jaster was proactive in attacking and chasing Paytrok for the most part, but running in to a spike marked the turning point in the match, as Jaster fell shortly afterward, Paytrok emerging victorious.

Redemption Round:

Raze Repine Flayer
Zeroyel Katsu Clobbering Stick
Spiderweb Raze Repine

Remarks: Spikes early on Zeroyel, as well as both poison and healing gas.  The healing gas did not help for long, however, as Zeroyel sustained two more hits from errant steps on spike traps and expiring soon afterward.

Jaster Berkmans Kidney Burster
Oku Ghost Crowbill
Minefield Oku Ghost

Remarks: Extended stalking between combattants diagonally along spaces clear of mines, some corner confrontations and careful stepping around mines.  Long battle, but one triggered mine finally took Jaster out.

Raze Repine Flayer
Oku Ghost Crowbill
SOS Oku Ghost

Remarks:Poison early on Oku.  Tight fight, lots of exchanged blows, but spike eventually took Raze down, returning Oku to normal play.

Round Two:

Enenra Ghost Flayer
Paytrok Ghost Flayer
Eye of the Tiger
Paytrok Ghost

Remarks: Lots of exchanged blows – Enenra downed in pit after extended fight.

VoidTraveller Seetan Nailgun, Flayer
Malice Shepherd Flayer
Candystore Malice Shepherd

Remarks: VoidTraveller’s choice of a nailgun early on turned out to be his downfall, as he found it was not loaded with ammunition.  Struggling to switch to a flayer as he was accosted by Malice, he ran in to multiple mines and gas traps, which poisoned him heavily.

Final Round:

Paytrok Ghost Flayer, Nailgun
Malice Shepherd Flayer
Oku Ghost Crowbill
Julienne Fries
1
3
2

Remarks: Spike and poison damage on Malice early, having run at Oku first early in the match.  Oku turned to chase Paytrok, exchanging blows a few times, then resuming the chase, preventing Malice from remaining idle while the other combattants fought.  Malice received further spike damage during this time, taking him down. In the mean time, Oku recieved two hits from spikes while chasing and fighting Paytrok, the second of which took her down, leaving Paytrok the winner.
