Match 4

The wild card versus Gutstabber
Managed by cappstv and Howells

No one quite knows how "The wild card" managed to qualify as a gladiator. Although the entrance requirements are not high, you must prove your fighting prowess by killing at least a dozen of the cats that live around the arena. When The wild card signed up, he not only lacked his due of cat corpses, he didn't have a weapon, or armor, and he wasn't even wearing any clothes. Nevertheless, he somehow managed to convince the entrance examiner that he was in fact a mighty dwarven warrior who had slain countless Dragons and Bronze Colossi.
And so today, "The wild card" entered the Arena(still naked and rather portly) to face his terrifying foe, a giant Minotaur named Gutstabber who wielded a 12-foot pike.
What happened next should surprise no one. The Minotaur charged the naked dwarf, chopping off its chubby hand, and knocking it to the ground. Gutstabber swung again, and cut deeply into "the wild card"'s arm. Blood flowed profusely. The Minotaur toyed with his opponent, prolonging the agonizing pain the wild card must have been experiencing. End the end, the dwarf was ripped to shreds: Gutstabber was named well.

Gutstabber is victorious, and advances to the next round!

The minotaur was having so much fun he decided not to kill him for a while.

with my sword I would've been like,

"Okay, let's chop off this arm...

ooh, now the leg!
Other arm
Other leg

It'll be a few hours before the next update.

Match 5

Karkat versus Nil Omshitrodum
Managed by Areku and Blackdutchie

Karkat is a Troll with an Axe. Nil Omshitrodum is a well rounded dwarf wielding a silver warhammer and an oaken shield, and decked out in bronze armor. The Dwarf struck first but his hammer was parried. The Troll hit the dwarf on its bronze leggings - but couldn't penetrate the armor! Karkat knocks Nil over and strikes the dwarf's armor multiple, but cannot land a solid hit. Nil, however, can't seem to respond, and at last Karkat hits an exposed area: Nil's left arm. It sails off in an arc and into the moat which surrounds the arena. Nil drops his warhammer and flees in pain and fear. The Troll pursues and manages to cut of the dwarf's right hand. Nil continues to flee, but at last Karkat, with a mighty upper cut, lands a hit to Nil's throat tearing it apart. Nil promptly dies and the fight comes to an end.



Karkat is victorious, and advances to the next round!

You see that? TROLL WITH AN AXE JUST MURDERED THAT GUY. Woo, Karkat.

Man, your guy's wearing a breastplate, at least, but you're up against another axeman. Least it's not a lasher.

Yeah I know. It's a pretty even fight.

But I have a feeling I'm gonna lose.

Poor little bastard, but seriously, no one's going to outwrestle a snake.

It was eaten. ._.
I feel sorry for him.

But seriously.
A pick?

MINE IS THE PICK THAT SHALL PIERCE THE SHINY

Nah, it was a really stupid choice. If I kept the axe, I'd have a chance at least. I'll go into quiet lurking from now on.

This looks like a cool topic, but it seems It already started...   :-\ Anyways, Anyone wonder what would happen if a person randomly snuck inside the arena during a match, and won? I got that from the create a superstar road to wrestlemania storyline from the game "Smackdown vs Raw 2010".
