+ 1| Rearing and spinning to avoid the spear

DEIMOS

[Bonus]
+ 1| Least injured
+ 1| Mentioning the familiar landscape
+ 2| Mentioning breed


[Injuries]
None.

[Creativity]
+ 1| Never deviated from unique style - true to Deimos' fighting experience
+ 1| Loved the references to the Ricochet battle

Comments: Very good use of style and creative use of words, but during the whole of the fight, Deimos seemed to be written as too overpowered. Burns are some of the most excruciating and painful injuries, and I believe that this was downplayed too much. On occasion, I found your creative use of style difficult when trying to orient position or what limb was being used. However, you had excellent references to previous battles, and a very clean fight.

LACE

[Bonus]
+ 2| Mentioning of breed
+ 2| Mentioning of surroundings

[Injuries]
None.

[Creativity]
+ 1| "The thud as she landed upon the ground was quiet, too small to fully illustrate the impact it had on the equine who's heart she owned."

Comments: The emotion in your posts was clear, beautiful and palpable. However, some of the typos were hard to look over. I think you should proofread your posts more carefully next time! Orientation was sometimes difficult to understand, but not implausible. I would suggest mapping out your battles to help yourself see where your opponent is and do not be afraid to ask for clarity.

TOTAL
DEIMOS - 86
LACE - 86

[Lace earns no VP and Deimos remains a prisoner of the Edge.]
