Week 3 - Quarterfinals




Lady (SH3) Lady vs Elvis Elvis (WA5)

Bardiche

And on stage, Elvis and Lady were rocking it out. They were dressed the part of rock stars and, in front of a cheering audience, were now playing several classic songs in rapid succession.

Hey, when one of the competitors is called "Elvis", some rock and roll should be expected!

Of course, whoever rocked out most eventually won. But that's okay, the loser still got to release an album.

Lady: 22
Elvis: 4


Rupert Dandrige (XF) Rupert Dandrige vs Dark Force Dark Force (PSs)

Bardiche
The crowd was blinded by the dust whipped up by the epic clash. Just moments ago, Dark Force and Rupert had unleashed their greatest powers, colliding at the same time.

Everyone held their breaths. Between a man hailing from a planet frequently terrorised by disaster, and a being fit to subjugate an entire world... who would win?

As the dust settled, a silhouette could be seen, standing victorious.

And the winner is...

Rupert Dandrige: 15
Dark Force: 12

Lezard Valeth
Dark force wins. Why? Well because I said so that's why >_>.

Okay fine, he smash and blows the other guy to bloody chunks and use said chunks as decoration.





Freya (VPs) Freya vs Belcoot Belcoot (S5)

Bardiche
Between Goddess and Mortal, the obvious victory is attained by the one who can't die.

Goddesses usually can't die, so you can't really fault Setzer for setting up a betting pool and betting away his entire fortune on the Goddess' victory.

It was an assured victory, after all.

Imagine his surprise when Freya turned out to be less-than-immortal when stabbed and slashed repeatedly with a sword.

Currently the Gullwings are on a mission to track down the Blackjack.

Freya: 18
Belcoot: 22

Barubary
Belcoot wins the battle against Freya... he beats a goddess. Huh I guess when you have l33t swordsskills your bound to win.




Presea Combatir (ToS) Presea Combatir vs Lady Harken Lady Harken (WA)

Bardiche
These sort of matchups are normally quite clear: one has an axe, the other doesn't.

The obvious and clear solution is a swift axe to the face.

Unfortunately, even though Presea was quite willing to provide axe to face action, there was a teeny tiny problem.

Presea's rather short, and Lady Harken's scythe has a rather wide reach.

Better luck next time, Presea!

Presea Combatir: 12
Lady Harken: 19




Tohru Adachi (Pers4) Tohru Adachi vs Shabon Shabon (S3)

Bardiche
Psychopathic killer VS little girl. A match surely to go down in history as an insult to child protection services everywhere.

For the sake of public reputation, the upper management and judges rescheduled the match to be... somewhat different.

In the end Shabon agreed to forfeit, if only she wouldn't have to participate in the silly shenanigans the judges had thought up.

Poor Adachi looked rather sullen in his tutu. Victorious, but sullen.

Tohru Adachi: 29
Shabon: 4


Guy Cecil (TotA) Guy Cecil vs Meganium Meganium (PKMN)

Bardiche
And this week, in an effort to provide that, YES, man can truly be victorious over dinosaurs, Guy got himself squashed by the grass... dino... thing called Meganium.

Yeah, you'd think Swords would be effective against Grass Monsters, but a Solar Beam is effective against everything.

Most importantly, it has range.

And so the match ended in Guy doing a rather impressive impression of Team Rocket. Meowth has gone on to sue.

Guy Cecil: 15
Meganium: 19




Orlha (CC) Orlha vs Amy Sage Amy Sage (PS2)

Bardiche

When two women convene, it is a long standing tradition in the Duelling League that shenanigans shall be had, and shall occur.

Of course, Zidane is not one to shirk his duties and let such an opportunity pass, oh no!

And so the curtain opens on a tale of humour, of love... and of inadvertent tragedy.

Specifically Zidane enduring the wrath of two ladies who did not quite appreciate him making a jest of their match by, ahem, spreading certain rumours regarding scantily clad Orlha and Amy mudwrestling it out.

And then proceeding to actually convince the two that was what the match was going to be.

The judges, all fair sports, decided to awward the win to whoever managed to hurt Zidane most.

Given that both can Heal... well, let's just say they had quite some time competing for victory.

Orlha: 12
Amy Sage: 13


Futch (Suikos) Futch vs Kain Highwind Kain Highwind (FF4)

Bardiche
Dragon Knight VS Dragoon.

Yeah, the similarities end there. Although Futch started out a lancer, he swapped that for a sword.

It sure was impressive seeing the two clash multiple times, but in the end there's little anyone can do against a spear in the face.

Futch's last words, as recorded:

"Darn it, stop jumping all the time! Who are you, Mario?!"

Futch: 20
Kain Highwind: 23
