Season 19, Week 1
Bowman Jean
(Star Ocean: The Second Story)
 
Mixing a flowing style of graceful fist attacks and the simple powers of pharmacy together into a single unified fighting style is how Bowman Jean lays down the law in middle. It's an effective way to brawl, and it makes him one of the strongest duellers in a division often dominated by artless brute force. Dalton has poor HP and defense, which makes him easy prey for a few simple attacks. What makes it even easier for Bowman is the fact that Dalton's offense relies on HP-halving attacks, whcih his basic healing can overcome with no problem, giving him the time needed to get the few good strikes in needed to set his feet on the path to victory.

The original pirate of the skies makes his return from a long hiatus from the DL arena, in a classic Middle showdown. The always-opportunistic Dalton is probably thanking his lucky stars he has drawn a fighter, since that's the kind of opponent he performs against best. His maddening evasion will protect him from the vast majority of the martial arts moves and pills his foe throws at him, and every attack Bowman attempts wll be met with an HP-halving Iron Orb counter. With Dalton also using his own turns to Iron Orb his foe, not even a pathetic attempt at weak healing can save Bowman from Dalton's dreaded finisher: the mighty Burp!

Sometimes, life just burns you.

Bowman had loaded up on his Pills, suited up in the best armor money could buy, shined up his gauntlets, and was ready for a fight. He sauntered in, hearing the shrieks of his female fans and all the people cheering him on, oblivious to a darkening shadow overhead.

Then Dalton landed the refurbished Blackbird on him.

Which then exploded. (Dalton tried fixing it himself.)

Unfortunatly, the judges decided that this was a self-destructive attack by a boss, which allows them to win in their games, and gave Dalton the win.

Ah, well. Bowman will get all the sexy nurses babying him, while Dalton will have really ugly toadies taking care of him....

Bowman Jean: 30
Dalton: 31

Dalton was a bit disturbed by his foe. Bowman stood in front of him, only wearing a pair of shorts and his Moon Fists.

Even more disturbing was the army of men and women drooling at this, and leading a 'sex god Bowman' chant. When Dalton saw that Queen Zeal was leading the female halves of the chat, he knew the fight was a lost cause. He did the only thing he knew how to do: Summon the Golems to kick some ass, while he fled.

Sadly, Dalton ran straight into Myria, who seemed most annoyed with him... and was wearing a "Sex God Bowman" shirt..

Bowman smiled as he saw Myria tear apart Dalton. He'd catch soo much grief from Nineh for it, but it was worth it.

He had a rival waiting for him in the other half of middle, after all.
