Season 18, Week 2
Cagnazzo
(Final Fantasy IV)
 
If Cagnazzo were to laugh any harder than he is right now, he would probably die from a collapsed lung. After finally gets his chance to terrorize Middle, who does he draw for his first match? A Grandia boss! One of that group of duellers whose claim to fame includes giving FF8 PCs wins! Maybe Cagnazzo should give him a sporting chance and just use his physicals every other turn. Or maybe he can just have Milon fill in for him while he sits in the stands and laughs over the battle of scrubs. However he chooses to do this 'fight', it looks like the Fiend of Water has a free trip to the second round.

At first glance, Mullen looks like he'll have trouble with the Fiend of Water. After all, there are few duellers less respected than Grandia bosses. But all is not lost - as everyone knows, Cagnazzo met defeat at the hands of a certain sword-wielding, silver-haired Paladin; a man Mullen resembles far too closely to dismiss as mere coincidence. With a little cleverness, Mullen can use his impressive swordsmanship to lever this enormous psychological advantage into his first DL victory - one which will go a long way toward winning Grandia the respect it deserves.

"Uhhhh, my head..." A heroically wasted Cagnazzo said, as he stumbled into the arena.

"...You have to be kidding me. I have to fight a giant drunken turtle?" Mullen said, baffled at his opponent.

-Six hours ago...-

"Blablasblas!" Blastoise said(?) to Cagnazzo.

"Hmmm. I know too what it's like to be mocked. People mock my weakness all the time." Cagnazzo said, ordering up two shots of tequila...

-Four hours later.-

"Blas.....toi. Blasoti. Bslatoi! Slatbois!" Blastoise said to Cagnazzo, weaving on his feet.

"Huhn. Yoush.....you ush....use rain? To makshe your water more powerful?! Thatsh brillance! Show me hows." The nodding Cagnazzo said to Blastoise...

-Two hours later.-

"I'm.....I'm not justh a turtle. I AM THE FIEND OF WATER. I WILL CRUSHES YOU." Cagnazzo said.

And started dancing. As the crowd stood, baffled, it....began to rain.

"....I think it's time I ended this spectacle. Rising Dragon Cut!" Mullen said, dealing the turtle a vicious blow.

"Thatsh not nice. BIG WAVE!" Cagnazzo said.

And the crowd watched, stunned, as Mullen crumpled to the ground, crushed by only one attack from Cagnazzo.

Then Cagnazzo wandered over to Mullen, poked him a few times, then passed out on top of him.

Sadly for Cagnazzo, he doesn't remember any of this, so he still can't figure out how he managed to use Rain Dance.

But, for once, it seems that drinking has had a beneficial effect on someone's health...

Cagnazzo: 38
Mullen: 18
