Season 34, Week 1
Gau
(Suikoden III)
 
Well, seems Gau’s a season late for the dog invasion, but better late then never, hmm? This will be a simple match of comparing the strengths of the duelists involved. Gau stabs things with a spear, straightforward and to the point. Seraphita is best known for having elemental immunities and draining magic, as well as having subpar fire magic. Lessee here, does Gau attack with any elements? No. Does he use any magic that needs to be drained? No bells ringing here, either. Is he weak against fire attacks? Well, he doesn’t particularly enjoy them, but he certainly isn’t afraid of them enough to fear Seraphita's spells. Does Seraphita like being stabbed? No? Well, now that looks like a pretty easy victory for the one-eyed kobold.

While being as cute, PIIIINK and hair-flowingly as Seraphita has its perks, they tend to be lost in the hustle of all the Arena fighting. So unfair ;_;! But whatever: Seraphita is one of the four Elements, Ramsus’ personal female (lesbian?) killing machines, and her killing powers are quite adept (far more than the sported by, say, KELVENA). A master of the fiery arts, this girl spells bad news for her canine opponent! Although a battle-hardened warrior like Gau might be embarrassed to be beaten down by little Sera, it’s not really shameful. She is a Super Solider, born to kill and destroy things, despite her "genki" appearance. No survivors are allowed in her mind, and the doggie is no exception!

Gau's not that good. Just another cog in the inferior mercenary band led by Duke. But, he had someone to look up to. A role model. A powerful duelling league heavy, hardened by over 10 years of fighting for his life on the harsh wildlands known only as the Veldt.

Gau the mercenary thoughtfully stroked his Super Nintendo controller. "Hm. So that is how my namesake defeats his foes, and assembles his impressive array of moves? ...I must say, this is unorthodox. But, he's the former heavy semifinalist, and I'm the nameless middle. I guess he knows best..."

Seraphita skipped excitedly to the ring, to find her canine opponent staring her down intently. "Heeheeheehee, this is going to be fun!" she exclaimed.

With a primal roar, Gau lept on the spunky pink haired loli and proceeded to

WE ARE EXPERIENCING TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES. PLEASE STAY TUNED. WE ARE UNABLE TO COVER THE MATCHUP AT THIS TIME, BUT WE WILL RESUME BROADCASTING AS SOON AS THE PROBLEM HAS PASSED.

...

WE MAY NOW RESUME COVERAGE OF GAU VS. SERAPHITA. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE.

Seraphita was dragged whimpering and sobbing out of the arena. Gau readjusted his clothes. "A rather effective tactic. I must use this more often." He strolled nonchalantly out of the arena.

Zidane and Sten stood stalk still, their jaws dropped nearly to the floor and their eyes popping out of their head.

Gau: 42
Seraphita: 34
