『You have been killed!』
These words flashed in Marim's head the moment she simulated the possibility of running away. Alright, so that's a bust. She concluded. Then, let's try to fight them!
There was no time to simulate the outcome of this route, so Marim just had to shoot for it. Maybe, just maybe, she'll be able to get something done here and stay alive. Doubtful but not impossible!
She used her Dodge Roll, but not to escape. On the contrary, she advanced on the Orc with the full intent to fight!
Also, by rolling at him so unexpectedly, she dodged his next attack. Lucky!
Though I wish I had the time to run a proper simulation for all of this. Marim thought. But hey, ain't nobody got time for that.
She was already down to 30% HP. There was no time to stop to think. Marim had to act solely on instinct and gut feel.
Okay, so, from this distance, there's no way in hell he can roll my blast, right? Marim unleashed her Dark Blast as soon as she recovered from the roll. She fired the powerful attack right in Memer's face!
"Whoa!?" Luke jumped. Where the hell did all this aggression come from!? This chick was out for blood!
"Yo, this girl is something else!" Luke grinned as he swung back at her with his scourge. However, the attack animation was a bit slow, and the whip had a very thin hitbox, so...
"Nuh-uh!" Marim sidestepped the easy point-blank attack. That weapon wasn't designed for close-quarters, and it showed.
Time to go all in! Marim activated Nightmare, clocking herself in a dark aura. She became the very avatar of death!
I just gotta reduce his HP to 20%, then I can execute him! Marim swung at her opponent with that determination. SLASH! SLASH!
C'mon, let's see what you've got, Memer! Marim smirked. You better step up your Orc gaming, or I'm gonna run all over you!
This was a dance between two madmen who rebelled against common conceptions. Dark Knight vs. Orc, two classes with immense potential, but both shunned by society. Now, they had a rare chance to shine on the competitive stage!
As expected, Memer was no slouch. He quickly realized it was stupid to continue this melee fight with a scourge.
Time to switch! Luke hit the Scourge skill again to put away the whip and bring out his axe. The switch took a moment, during which the opponent smacked him. SLASH!
Dang, this is actually getting a little dangerous now, haha! Luke smiled nervously as he armed himself with the best weapon for the job. They were both at low health here, so anything could happen. This fight was about to come down to the wire…!
SLASH! WHAM! Maverick was down to 25% HP, but Luke wasn't much better at 30% HP.
Which is practically more like 10% because she's gonna execute me at 20%, AND also my own damage gets reflected, too. Luke gulped, but then burst into laughter. Yeah, DK is sure crazy. I love it, haha!But, Orc is just as crazy. Observe!
Luke swung his axe at the darkness in front of him. WHAM! 15% HP deleted! Ez game!
However, this came with a cost. Maverick's Nightmare reflected 20% damage back at Luke, deleting like 3% of his HP. That shit was nasty!
Nerfs when, Cashsoft!? Luke joked. But yeah, the class is hella good in the early game. I gotta be careful not to get whooped here.
After eating Luke's powerful strike, Maverick fell to around 10% HP. This was borderline the cost of casting Gate of Sheol, her ult. She'll either be left with like 1 HP after casting it, or maybe she outright couldn't at this point.
Regardless, Maverick continued attacking. SLASH! She reduced Luke's HP to 20%. This was the execution threshold…!
"Dang, I goofed!" Luke realized his miscalculation only now. He failed to account for all the extra damage from Nightmare, so he fell into the execution threshold way sooner than expected. Nuuuuuu!
Am I actually dead!? Fuuuuu! Luke laughed hysterically. This was both the saddest and most hilarious moment of his life. To think that he'd be owned by a DK memer in a competitive game. Talk about karma, haha!
I ain't even mad. Luke felt like he could die a happy man if it were at the hands of a kindred spirit. This was one heck of a way to go out, haha!
Likewise, Maverick was also super thrilled by this turn of events. "Thanks for the free damage, haha!" Marim couldn't help but laugh. After all, how could she not? Her Nightmare reflected billions of damage!
Like, seriously, against Orc's bombastic strikes, the reflected damage was almost higher than Marim's basics. It was kinda crazy, honestly.
Hell, I can actually execute him now! Marim noticed the skull marker above Memer's head. It was so over for him!
Well, it was nice knowing you. Seeya in hell! Marim unleashed the Gate of Sheol! It was over!!!
