Season 35, Week 1
Karsh
(Chrono Cross)
 
Back for another season of axes to the face is the most successful Chrono Cross duelist in the League (Dario doesn't count)! Hoping to add more wins to his already quite impressive record, Karsh and his trusty weapon are ready to meet all comers in the Arena and send them back out in a pine box. His first foe is Beowulf, well-known chicken fetishist and Oracle in knight's clothing. As varied and powerful as he may be, he's still non-too-durable, and susceptible to an axe to the face from the Deva. A few whacks and an Axiomatic is all it'll take to put this one back to training camp and bring Karsh one step closer to another Finals appearance.

Ivalice Knight and errant wife-turned-dragon hunter Beowulf stands at the threshold of a new DL season. For too long has his wife Reis lorded her winning record over him with her silent, mocking gazes. It's time for him to step up and show her he's every bit the man she fell in love with! Beowulf's first opponent is an excellent chance to show her whats what. As a former Middle finalist, Karsh brings stellar offense and solid defenses. Luckily, Beowulf brings those, plus an uncanny array of debilitating status spells that Karsh can't possibly defend against. What will a former Middle Finalist be able to do as a chicken? We're about to find out!

Karsh had a game plan. It wasn't much, but hey, it worked for 3 matches out of 4! That's pretty impressive considering all it consisted was smashing axes to faces. No problem, he will only have to repeat this to claim victory.

The match began and Karsh wasted no time putting his brilliant plan into play. He ran down towards Beowulf who began readying a magic sword spell. He WILL get there before the Temple Knight is ready.

Beowulf, knowing that Karsh will strike him first before his spell resolves, panicked and did the only thing he could think of.

The entire male audience winced as Beowulf wounded up swinging his sword right into Karsh's nether regions.

MORAL OF THIS STORY: An axe to the face is a great way to get ahead in life, but its hard to argue when you just got a sword where the sun don't shine.

Karsh: 18
Beowulf Kadmus: 72

Before Karsh can even swing his axe, Beowolf swung his sword in the air. This puzzled Karsh before realizing a smoke has risen around him and he metamorphose into a chicken which ran away squawking.

"Well that was easy", Beowolf said before being declare the winner.

Later Karsh decides to become a vegetarian after his chicken ordeal.
