Strangest Matches ever

Post by Capt Sneggle »

Alright folks step right up and state what your strangest dueling match in the DoS was. Provide as much detail as you can I think it would be great reading and you could insert some OOC commentary.

Why? No great reason I was just thinking about some of the byplay between DUEL Sevn and E as they were enjoying the duels. I was, as I am sure most of you know DUEL Sevn.


Thanks

Many years ago Grayson was dueling LrdArithon. I don't remember much about the lead up, except for the fact that there was NO premeditation at all. The entire duel comprised of three manuevers: Slash, Duck and Dis. He ended up winning 3-2 in 15. Incredibly fun.

Then there was the time Grayson and Harris fought in a Duel of Wits...

I remember a certain someone sending a ferret in for a duel. . .with the entirety of the duel being either fancy disengage or disengage.

Two guesses how that turned out.
Remember, in the end, it's all moo.

Meaning it all gets munched on, spit up, chewed on for a while, swallowed, spit up again, chewed on some more, swallowed again, and dumped on the ground in big steaming piles.

Var once landed a FDIS/SL/FDIS on me in three straight rounds. Very embarassing at the time.

This result came through a few months ago, and it stood out to me:
Karen J Wilder .ties. Amaltea, 2.5-2 in 15 DoS

I am probably most known for using multi-round combos more than others, including some basic named ones taken for granted these days. One kind of silly famous combo I had was the SexCut which is six cuts in a row. Obviously, the time I had it done to me and lost a duel I found it embarasing because I felt they really wouldn't actually go through with it in the ole psychological mind games of duels. But the worst was losing a duel to someone who did nothing but cut 13 times in a row.

My basic dueling philosophy is of the 10 DoS moves I consider 6 moves the basic fundementals, TH-HC-LC-CP-LP-SS, while SH-SL-DU-DIS I classify as expert manuevers. Only a few times have I scored 4 points in 4 rounds with my "Drunken Dragon" combo which is any order of the 4 expert manuever in a row. The best I felt I embarassed someone else in a duel was a perfect 5 round shutout using nothing but the 4 expert manuever and winning on slashing a fancy duck after opening on a FDIS.

Most interesting was stepping in for Ian's challenge to Gnim and fighting Billy Ray in the intercession that also turned out to be a challenge for by Baron's ring. That was fun =)

Strangest.. well just about any duel against Marx. Not only was the character great but Marx was a fanatical chess player who approached DoS with the same mindset, so it was always fun but also mentally challenging.

One night in the outback...

Anubis dueled Elly.

If you dont' know who Elly is, this is not nearly as amusing to you as it is to me

You had to remember that one. :P

I had a duel with Luthien, she won 5-4 in 5 rounds.
