Emeralda>Marivel:
A vampire against a machinery construct?
Of course, Marivel was no ordinary vampire. Blood sucking is not her only skill!
Her arsenal of skills include A MIGHTY GUILLOTI-...
...
Wait, she's against someone that reforms parts of their body and can't have their head cut off as such?
....*Leafs through a page of skills.*
...Well, she's not an ordinary vampire.
Her useful skills consist of sucking blood and cutting off heads, and that's about it.
Sometimes, you just get walled.
Ulf>Levi:
A wise man once said, "Discretion is the better part of valor.".
Words Levi took to heart strongly. He was no fool. He understood his principles of war.
Specifically, he knew that the closest principle was about to blast him into the stratosphere with a flail.
So, he did the simple thing.

"Yeah, my master said you had this great technique that you could show me! That it was like magic, but that <i>I'd</i> actually be able to use it! C'mon, c'mon, show me, please!?" Bergen said anxiously to a puzzled Ulf.
Evidently, Levi had cleared the substitution with the judges. It was all very proper.
"Well, if he really want to see it..." Ulf shrugged.
One Dynamite Rush later, and a stunned Bergen was laid out.
Overall, the match worked out pretty well. Levi got out of personal harm. Ulf got out of personal harm. Bergen took the move's name a little too seriously and is now using the power of dynamite combined with rushes to produce spectacular, if painful, "magic". Everyone wins.
Zoah>>>Brey
Brey'd had enough of using his friends for help.
Edge and Yuri and Lexis were fairly useful, but he could fight one lousy battle on his own, against a muscle bound oaf like Zoah. Heck, he couldn't even speak in a normal tone of voice. What could he possibly do against a man of such incredible magical and mental prowess as himself?

"Annnnnnd this is why you ask us for help, Brey." Yuri grunted, as he attempted to pull Brey from the floor.
"...yes, yes, I know, I know." Brey sighed. "At least I got to see Lexis wing him with the Creamonade right after."
"Yeah, but now I have to pull <i>him</i> out, too, and I'm probably going to have to transform for that." Yuri sighed, and yanked on Brey's shoulders harder. "All that's left sticking out for him is that helmet..."
