Men. In ten minutes, we'll be starting the match.
I wanted to give a grand speech about what's to be done and what to accomplish - yet the words fail me as I sip into a can of ginger beer.
All I gotta say... is...
Let's do this.

The Coldest Hell
Hi and welcome to our long-awaited match for the third match of the season. Knights on 4th place, while Infernos are just outside on the 5th place, needing a win to hop over to qualification. Pretty crucial match this, let's see what both sides have in store for us!
Looks like the Knights win the coin toss. They took the kick!
Here we gooo~!
Oh my! What a sudden change of weather!
Will this stop Xeno's passing game?! stabby looks unsure with his runs... this could get dangerous for both sides.
The Bloodletter, wasting no time to maul Ulminati. Stunning him!
Brother None gets taken down as well.
Turn over as they secure the ball successfully.
Whitewolf, taking down the Bloodletter, but no damage!
Gondolin !
Injures his man! Looks like a serious concussion!
But the demon gets back up! Wow! That would've been crucial!
Xenomorph with a blitz this time!
Scores a knockdown, but no damage!
Knights flooding the ball, eager to get it.
Finishing touches as Angelo and LundB gets in position before end of turn.
Oh man, every turn the Bloodletter blitzes! Who's gonna be the victim this time?!
Whitewolf is down! But no injury!
More pushes as Infernos try to break out.
LundB gets downed.
Ulminati recovers from his stun... so far, no Bone-head for this lonely Juggernaut.
Angelo, going to blitz for the ball here... let's see!
Nope, changes his mind and lets Jaedar have the honor!
Dodge out was good and he knocks his target out!
Loose ball! Xenomorph tearing at his marker!
eklektyk pushing back his target towards the ball!
The demon fails the pick up and the ball bounces into Angelo's hands!
stabby to reconfigure his position!
Oh wow, failed that dodge. He's not hurt, but his ego will take a beating. Turnover!
The usual Claw spam, this time on Ulminati!
oh god. Is he?!
He's DEAD!
Ulminati is dead! The Knights' Coach in disbelief!
.........................................................................................................................................................................................
He storms into the pitch, slapping the dead body over and over again. Pouring some kind of yellow liquid into the fallen giant's face, to no avail. It's really dead. The Knights have lost their Strongman! Is this the turning point?!

Alas, poor Ulm. I hardly knew him.

Wow. That's a heavy way to start the game....
.... also, I'm going to nominate Humppaleka as his replacement.

Owtch. Poor Ulm :c
Hellraiser
Arcane
Well after avoiding bonehead the entire last game it was pretty clear he ran out of nuffle's favor.
You should've taken two catchers instead of a single ogre.. 
I know the result..

Odd, not too long ago I remember someone saying the exact opposite:
Also, speaking from experience as I do coach some Amazons on the side, I'm not sure that more squishies over an ogre is such a good plan.
A Certain Catcher said:So, the chat we had about you considering two extra catchers instead of the ogre? Glad you didn't go with that plan.
Also, speaking from experience as I do coach some Amazons on the side, I'm not sure that more squishies over an ogre is such a good plan.
I'm fickle.

You guys are heartless. OUR TEAMMATE JUST DIED. That gives me emotions!!!
PS: I told you pride comes before the fall, RK!! Nuffle has smote you!
PS: I told you pride comes before the fall, RK!! Nuffle has smote you!
I'm just being callous. I expected to go first, not least because of having AV 7, but also indeed because of being the most catchy of all catchers in the league so far...
Run in the Cold
More misery as the Infernos take down Angelo, the Knights ball carrier.
Ball bounces and stops right next to the Bloodletter. Who's gonna pick that one up?
LundB, still the ever-green rookie lino of the season. With 0 SPP, 0 injuries, taking hits like a soldier. Turn over.
Gondolin with a counter attack. Takes down his man. Pushing him to the ball.
The Bounce is good! Takes the ball away from the hotspot and next to a cultist fighter.
Xenomorph stuns a target to free eklektyk - who repositions to provide guard assists for Whitewolf.
First one is a push~ which is good enough to clear the ball zone for the pick up.
Second one is a knockdown! But no injury!
Jaedar gets back to add more safety for the ball pick up. It's still early in the half, but Knights really want to score to make up for the loss of the Ogre.
Brother None obliges! Gets the ball, where to go?!
Anywhere but here, I guess. Looks like Knights are sure to score now. Turn over.
Here comes the Bloodthirster...
Claw, taking a chunk off Angelo's armor, but still alive!
Hellraiser gets blitzed. They really want the ball back!
LundB, stops the play by tackling his man before he can complete the dodge out!
Brother None, free of the danger zone! Now his teammates will have to buy him time! Are they going to delay? The Knights' coach looking VERY worried for his boys now with that Claw Thirster on the field.
Xenomorph slows the demon down. Stunning his target.
stabby, dodging out to get further up the field.
Everything is looking great for a first half touch down for the Knights.
Oh boy.
Xenomorph is down~ But not out! Knights coach, breathing a sigh of relief.
That death really shook him up.
His heart seems to skip a beat when Whitewolf is taken down in the midfield skirmish. He's unharmed though.
stabby defies fear and will attempt to slow down the Bloodthirster...
Turnover.
Xenomorph... not getting up from the Bloodthirster challenge.. interesting.
stabby's down!
Mother of god. That little catcher never stood a chance, crumpling into the snow like an over-sized labia torn away from the pussy itself.
Knights already used up their apothecary. All they can do is pray. Looks like it's a pinched nerve, he'll miss the next game.
That means the knights can't afford to delay any longer. TOUCHDOWN IT IS! 1-0! But they're not out of the danger yet!

Running from Victory
Knights up, 1-0 but still very much in a precarious situation. With 2 players out of the game, every drive is just going to start with just 10 men. No more apoths..it's high stakes from now on with the Bloodthirster on the loor.
Infernos, on the meantime, only has 2 KOs... and no injuries.
Stopping the Infernos offense on this first half drive is crucial if they want to take away a victory from this game.
Kick!
Quick snap by the Infernos! Their catcher gets within a step of the ball - gets it safely on the first try. The offense is on.
Moar claw. Hellraiser survived.
The whole line collapsed.
Blitz incoming.
BN taken down.
A handover!
A last, desperate attempt to run the ball into the end zone!
Angelo won't let that happen... marks his man...
Whitewolf!
Takes the ball down! It's safe!
Things are looking slightly better for the knights, but one can argue they rather restart the game at 0-0 with full roster at this point. Arguable, but yeah.
Gondolin KO's one.
Xeno to make that hopeful pick up.
It's good. It's safe. This half goes to the Knights...
Wha-
Angelo with the back catch. EXTRA safe now.
The raging demons slams another knights down, but thankfully, nobody gets hurt...
And the half goes to the Knights 1-0. A mix of emotions right now on the Knights bench as they prepare to receive on the second half...

He was clearly a freak of nature. No failed bone-head rolls was simply too much for Nuffle.
Fear
And we're back for the second half. It's cold out here... and it doesn't look like the blizzard is going to end soon.
All the KO'ed deamons are ready to get back in the game.
While the Knights will have to play on without their two players.
There's a sense of cold dread in the air as the players set themselves up for the kick...
Having to start with just 10 men, the Knights will have to contend with just one catcher. Can they really pull off a passing game in this cold war?
Oh, looks like they're going for a cage.
Gondolin, ekletyk and Angelo going to do some attack diversion on the mean time.
A good stunning blitz.
Xeno can't reach the ball, Azira fucks it up, spends a reroll...
And spills it again. Turn over!
The Bloodthirster is still raging. Pushing Gondolin all the way back.
eklektyk gets knocked out!
More push on Gondolin. His drive is really heading nowhere. Turnover.
Looks like Whitewolf to blitz.
Scores an injury! Things are picking up for the Knights.
Azira gets the ball finally and dashes to cover.
Gondolin, knowing the real danger of being crowd push, risks a bad dodge.
Did not make it. Turn over.
Angelo is brought down.
Here comes the beast.
Whitewolf gets clawed, concern showing from the knight's bench but no injury!
It looks like Jaedar might reposition to secure the cage...
DISASTER!
XENOMORPH IS STUNNED!
DEMON WASTING NO TIME TO BLITZ THE BALL! AZIRA CAN'T HOLD!
THE BALL IS LOOSE!
Hellraiser gets pushed away!
They've got the ball, WHAT A DISASTER. Turnover! DISGUST WRITTEN ALL OVER THE KNIGHTS' COACH'S FACE!
They can still turn this around...
Hellraiser, pushing in to the ball range...
A rather risky, yet given their option, there's not much else to do...
Makes it!
Craps on the second... reroll!
Makes it through! AND....
Gets a red skull for his trouble. Turn over!
Hellraiser stunned! This is probably going to seal it!
What else can the knights do to stop the ball?!
Angelo gets pushed out onto the crowd...
But no injury as the crowd stomps him...
LundB gets knocked down, but uninjured.
There's fear written all over the knight's face. Brother None could've made that final step for tackle assist...but nope. He's not risking it, the snowy plains are slippery...
Jaedar will have to redeem himself ...
And FAILS to get the crucial block in! Terrible performance by the Blitzer so far. That clinches it...
It's 1-1!
Knights with 2 man down will have to re-try the final drive with no rerolls left... the coach look totally shell-shocked!
And we're back for the second half. It's cold out here... and it doesn't look like the blizzard is going to end soon.

Is the glass half full?
Desperation written in their faces. Knights made to pay for that slip. They still have a chance at taking a win out of this, but perhaps with a little bit more conservative play - the tying touchdown could've been prevented.
This is a very OBVIOUS setup. Only 2 turns left to play. All chips on the table.
IT'S HIGH!
Xeno can't capitalize, but he gets close to the ball.
Right flank is free. Knights going in!
Hellraiser to cover the ball.
Whitewolf!
Only gets a double push!
Xenomorph gets the ball on the first try.
Wants to add speed to the ball - tosses it to Azira.
Gets it. Where's it gonna go?
Audacious hand-off...
Fucks it up!
LundB, soldiering on!
Whitewolf surviving yet another murder attempt.
In comes the Bloodthirster!
Azira gets taken down. Turnover as drama sets in.
Jaedar going for the ball ...
Ends his match with a fumbled pick up that goes out of bounds, accompanied by the booing of the crowd. Today's gotta be the worst performance in his career. That failed dodge was crucial in setting up the Infernos touchdown and now this... Despair sets in as the ball flies back into the field...
Infernos in no position to score... but there's a slight chance if they can make a pass...
The Bloodthirster succumbs to its animal instincts and refuses to move, much to the relief of the exhausted knights...
More misery as eklektyk is badly hurt.
And the infernos failed a pick up! Turnover. Last chance saloon!
Jaedar's last chance...
Did not fuck it up this time. Now, can Hellraiser execute the final play? Asking too much from a lino... but still...
NO! HE FAILED THE PICK UP! IT'S OVER! 1-1!
A DRAW between the two! A moral sapping draw to the knights as the coach slumps on his chair. To him, it looked more like a defeat.
Lots of drama in this match, plenty of action and blood. A dead ogre, and two injuries. Plus two decisive touchdowns.
More bad news as the MVP is given to the injured stabby who will miss the next game. It appears the Knights will have the toughest game yet on match day 4....
But let's move on to the post-match conference...
Q: You looked very disappointed with the draw. Why is that?
A: We gave it away. After losing Ulminati and stabby, we were hardly in any shape to score a 2nd touchdown. The manner we let that trying touch down in...was unacceptable. A dagger in my heart. I can still see it replaying over and over in my head. It'll eat me up in my sleep. It wasn't a draw for us. We defeated ourselves out there. Now we've a hole both literally and figuratively in the team.
Q: Wow. Speaking of holes - any replacement for stabby and Ulminati for the next game?
A: I haven't looked at the funds. But yes, a game against 1500TV Orcs is always going to be rough, I'm looking at my options now. We need a rebound ASAP before the decline sets in.
Q: Speaking of decline, with this result, you're still in 4th place, 1 point away from Purple Infernos at 5th. And one point behind from 3rd. Any comments on this?
A: Let's not get ahead of ourselves. A win today would've put ourselves in easy qualification - but with this draw, things are.. uncertain. I'll have to double check on the schedule and make sure we're not dropping the easy points and earn the hard ones.
Q: Any final comments on this match?
A: I blew it. It's gonna haunt me. I need a few days to sleep it off. Losing an Ogre early is always going to be hard. But dropping those two points is even more painful. It'll be a while till I shake it off.
And that's all we have for Match Day 3 stay tuned for the next week's showdown between Knights of Codexia (4th) vs Vast Mountain Raiders! (7th)
