I've had a blizzard man die, killed by a clownite-shortsword-using-grandmaster-swordsman, but even that took ages.
He separated it's every body part from eachother, I think.

That explains it. Decapitation may be the only way, as each time I've had blizzard man fights, it's been hand to hand combat.

ya blizzard men don't die in hand-to-hand, but alot of people are using weapons so I thought it would be okay, since I've hand blizzard men killed and torn apart by dog bites before.

In theory, they can't be killed by any blunt weapons at all, so maces and hammers and whatnot are useless against them.

unless you completely mash the head away/off, though that is really hard to do.

I definitely think it's very unfair, then, to use something that will almost certainly win every single fight. You could get in a lucky hit, but they still have an immense advantage. I mean, it's not quite fair for a dwarf, who will surrender and run home crying once schler toe has been bruised, to fight a blizzardman, who will keep fighting even if schle is nothing left but a torso and a head.

Well, this is a bit of a difficult decision, should I allow the blizzard man? Or should I disallow any immortal characters?

The latter may seem the more sensible option, but keep in mind there are at least two iron men still left in tournament one.

I say disallow them, but after this tournament. Or just make them cost a lot, so you can't get any real equipment/skills for them.

Iron men can be killed easily with a fairly simple hit. I have seen an iron man get it's limb punched off before.

On the other hand, there are a few immortal creatures I have been able to determine.

Bronze colossuses can only be killed by heavy application of dragon-fire/magma.
Grimelings can only be killed by lava.
Blizzard men won't give in, ever. I dropped one from the highest point to the lowest, threw several dragons at it and it still wouldn't give in.
There's a few more, but I can't remember at the moment.

It's 25

EDIT: And yeah, Iron Men are actually very easy to kill. Cut off it's head or lower/upper body and it's dead.

Okay, I just had to look up slade on the wiki, thanks for the spoiler :)

And it's not 25. I'll add it in for the next tournament. If anyone wants to edit their characters with slade for the next tournament, then make an edit to your original post then make a new post to tell me.

Yeah, clownite is adamantine.

Should I add a spoiler warning to the topic name or do people not care?

Slade is slade. It's got to be massively expensive. Like, 60 points at least.

But then, life was also easier when I was running around here pretending to be a man, so I guess I should just "man up" and get back to work.
