Season 37, Week 2
Gilbert
(Shadow Hearts: From the New World)
 
Gilbert has dark plans for Godlike. Piastol's been around the RPGDL longer than many fighters can remember, but this makes no different to the genius professor. Piastol's speed and offensive capabilities are renowned, but she can't even compare to Gilbert's offensive power. The power of the Penguin is a terrible sight to behold - Deep Grudge and Malice Dirge combined can wipe the floor with even the toughest of Godlike, and Piastol isn't one of the toughest. It's a simple fight that any idiot could win, but Gilbert's happy it's not too complicated - after all, it gives him more time to focus on other, more important things.

Godlike's leading lady returns for another round of brutal combat. She was barely stopped by a sneering master of time in her last battle, and now she returns to face a freakish midget. Not the most threatening thing in the world, is it? As always, Piastol boasts a huge speed advantage over Gilbert and can use her high powered Tempest Dance to kill this fool in a matter of seconds. Whatever offensive tricks Gilbert can muster aren't enough, as his Malice-based spells will all hit her incredible magic defense. It'll be an ugly welcome to the DL for this ugly new professor, who had the misfortune to draw the irate Angel of Death.

Mewtwo's plan had worked! No one could tell that he wasn't a balding, middle aged pervert trying to destroy the world with the power of Malice. Orlandu and Fuse would be off making sure Ramirez and Galcian stayed far away from the arena. Gilbert had been easy to bribe into not fighting, he didn't like his chances against Piastol at all. Edge had managed to scrouge up a set of Adamant Armor and an Instant Death blocker, leaving Piastol helpless before his assault.

Edge was The Fury. The Fury charged into the arena and attacked Piastol without warning, striking her several times in a matter of seconds. The Fury wasn't going to be stopped.

The Fury sadly forgot to equip aforementioned Adamant Armor and Leonardo's Bear and went charging after a Godlike champion in a straight up slugfest in a DL legal fight. Edge is good. He's way, way, WAY out of Piastol's league in a straight slugfest.

It took three Tempest Dances, a kick to the face, and Piastol slamming his head hard enough into the arena floor to crack his skull and shake the walls of the entire arena to knock Edge out. Besides for the opening flurry of attacks, Edge hadn't gotten a single hit in on the woman who had so brutally set Rydia up.

Piastol later wondered why it had taken so much effort to knock out Gilbert. She shrugged it off, a win was a win. Not her concern if the idiot wanted to ruin himself in a hopeless battle.

"Thanks Cristo." Orlandu tossed the Chancellor a bag of Gil and slapped Edge around the face. Hard. "Get up, boy. It cost triple the usual to revive you after that. What kind of insane plan was that, fighting Piastol on an even playing ground?"

Edge groaned and slowly stirred. "I... guess I just lost it when I saw her sitting there, gloating. I'll get another crack at her next week. She's going to be sorry she was ever born."

Gilbert: 1
