Awesome! it is exactly what I hoped for!
R1: So, dual-sword and iron/bronze shortsword paladin vs highly skilled shortsword and shielder and steel-axe toting axe/dodger.
Okay, these builds are really similar. The elf was the oddest one out, and the first to fall. Grats to winning paladin-dwarf.
R2: I'm eager. No dodgers versus two dodgers? And hey, didn't notice unarmed specialists thing either.
Hm, this gif was smaller for some reason. Had to boost size with Ctrl+ to see it properly.
And ouch, seems somebody drowned? Oh wait, just limbs flying into pool, kihihi. Sucks that dwarf didn't get chance to shine - wait, I guess the dwarf killed them with copper shield.
Seems like the bites had some trouble penetrating the armor? Hm, something to consider for next round. Though I'll have to pay 40 points for it again regardless.
And yeah, bushmaster venom takes only effect more than a page after biting. Something like 16-17 attacks after? It's a slow-acting one, but the paralysis lasts 1075 steps - long enough that only the most enduring dwarves can avoid suffocation.
R3: macing troglodyte, intended to punch through armor, and yet another biter? VS Wrestling-dodging yeti and highly skilled reptile.
Wouldn't want to see the troglodyte to face the yeti...But it seems even the more fortitious arrangement wasn't enough for them.
Why was reptile woman biting, when having 6 in spear? Unexpected.
If Yeti had fallen unconsicious...Well, hyena man would have been better biter. So long, though!
R4: Maia the wall? Unusual name for fighter with no shields. Rather, this one focuses on skills, as does the gremlin.
Meanwhile, kobold's whip faces no armor to penetrate, and chaos scorpion has no striking to hit with.
Well, they have proper swimming skill, however - if they get a wet arena, they might stand a good chance...
But this arena isn't wet.
Wouldn't have thought that Maia would lose to the bark scorpion, but a moot point - shanking for the win.
As for point expenditure, I'll have to think a bit, and am about to be busy.
