Season 54, Week 3
Ryu
(Breath of Fire III)
 
Now then, looks like it's time for Ryu the Third to show Kartikeya just how tough Godlike is. Harnessing the infinite power of the dreaded Brood, the dragon boy will earnestly show the power that Myria herself feared enough to reap an entire race via ruthless genocide. Upon accessing his Infinity genes, Ryu will shatter the sentinel's bones with an emperor's grasp, and show him the terrifying force of the Brood - all in all, this week's matchup will showcase the best of Godlike in an awe-inspiring display of brutal force. Ryu the Third has the brawns, the durability and the force to stop Kartikeya dead in his tracks. No Sky Twister nor Evil Grin shall hinder Ryu's crushing powers. Kartikeya, deranged as he may be, is simply outgunned, outpowered and outwitted, and no amount of struggling will allow the bloodthirsty Veruni warrior to halt the Brood's march to the Godlike finals, much like Myria couldn't deter Ryu's astounding might.

Time to K.I.S.S. your ass goodbye, dragon-boy - Doctor Love is in the house! The ruler of the world of hard rock-n'-roll (and also murdering helpless women and children) is all hyped up after crushing that little girl last week beneath his Love Gun, and if there's anything that the great Gene Simmons (a.k.a Kartikeya) likes, it's letting his tongue fly free and drag on some Cold Gin while he takes a shot at anyone else who challenges him - like a dragon! This will surely be one of those Crazy Crazy Nights! Armed to the teeth and ready to Shout It Out Loud, fast and resilient, Kartikeya doesn't have much to fear from Ryu - a few Vortexes, or even a quick Grin and overkill, are all within the realm of grasp here. And dragons? Please. Karti's stronger, faster, and can punish each and every one of those little whelps with a flick of his wrist. It's time for a new load of ass-kicking by yours-truly, Kartikeya. Flaming Youth, you're going down!

Kartikeya had figured out what went wrong last week!

He should have done research on his opponent's girlfriend first before he threatened to kill her! How was he to know that puny human had a bunch of freaky monsters at her command?

And so, with the knowledge that the girlfriend of his opponent this week was just a weakling princess that couldn't even get out of Light, he pointed his ARM at Nina with great confidence and laughed with sadistic glee as he threatened to blow her head off.

Whereupon Ryu reacted as expected. As it turned out, Veruni bones broke just as easily as human bones when the Golden Kaiser came a cracking.

In retrospect, Kartikeya probably should have done some research on his opponent too.
