The quantum kitty flies again! Yes, Shady Thousand makes his long-awaited return this week, to the delight of his adoring fans everywhere. And what better way than to show off his incredible skills than in an all-Wild ARMs, animal-mascot-extravaganza duel to showcase some of the best sidekicks Light has to offer? And it's a match that the sub-atomic feline has a decided advantage in. While under normal circumstances, Ard might easily outdamage Shady, this is not the case when the reptilian scientific assistant is bereft of his master's help. Yes, without Liz's various mixed bug concoctions, this big lizard's attacks are decidedly weak, not to mention slow and inaccurate to boot! Shady's incredible agility will make a mockery of Ard's unenhanced blows, just as his breath attacks will alternately freeze and cook his lizard opponent. With Alfred fighting in the neighboring arena, Schroedinger's cat will not fail to do his part to hold up their end of the family honor this week!

Light has had its share of epic matches, most of them involving Jogurt in some way. But his is a true delight. Battle of the Wild Arms Mascots! In this corner, we have a fat and sassy lizard of Pokemon-esqe vocabulary. Nominally a scientist (we suspect he just does the heavy lifting), he plagued the members of ARMS throughout their quest to stop Lord Blazer. He's also half the legendary Battlebots Superheavyweight team Bulkogidon. This time though, he has a much more cunning weapon to use on his foe... the one thing that Shady fears... a present from a certain secret agent... A BOX! Of course, Liz didn't want to send Ard in with no armament, so he attached a multitude of jets, rockets and a cloaking device...well, we're not sure how effective it'll actually be at being a box. However, Ard's still got his arsenal of strong punches and kicks to fall back on. He can easily stand up to Shady's weak attacks and spells, so Shady will make like a true Shroedinger's cat and die in a box... maybe.

The right to be judged by one's peers. A rule that appears to actually apply in the Duelling League, though is rarely invoked, as an impartial judge team of a dueler's peers is often hard to find, and very few duelists have the same group of peers.
But then you have Shady and Ard fighting.
Well, Liz and the rest of the Schrodinger family were right out. They wouldn't be impartial. But Zed and Tony? Both reoccurring WA bosses, and neither caring for the lizard or the quantum cat more then the other? They were perfect.
Something which Tony deeply, deeply regretted. Just being considered a "peer" of that goofball Zed, but to have to actually talk with the idiot long enough to judge a match? That was pure torture. It was taking hours. HOURS. Just to decide what to have them do. Zed would not agree to just have them fight it out. Oh no. It had to be something EPIC!!! And as he was the former Godlike, while Tony was the Middle, the socially(not to mention mentally..) handicapped demon decided he got to call all the shots.
So they sat there. And argued. For hours. Tony was dead set against anything like Zed's repeated suggestions for "catchphrase contest!" or "dramatic posing" while Zed seemed completely against anything...uh...reasonable. Finally, at Shady's suggestion that they had better come to a decision soon or he would loop Siefer's rap album until they did, Tony and Zed were able to come to an agreement on something that was both fair, somewhat dignified, and still EPIC enough to please Zed's childish mindset(has Tony mentioned how much he hates adults who act like kids? Possibly more then he hates kids themselves, and that's a feat).
The contest? Superhero Training Camp. Yes indeed, as a member of the Super Equity Freinds(and somehow able to reveal his identity freely, something about a Reformed Villian Clause), Zed had access to the SEF Training Regimin, complete with obstical course and holographic "civilians" to save.
Now you tell me who is going to do better on a test like this: a superstrong lizard who is just barely smart enough to pronounce his own name? Or a flying quanum cat who can breath fire and ice and is already accomplished in things like teamwork?
Okay, so maybe it wasn't so fair afterall. It's not like Ard will care anyway.
Shady Thousand: 34
Ard: 19
