Fight of the Day shall Return!

[Nicholas Ward]

1.
Alexis Raven vs. Claude Deveraux
I agree partly with Mr Slash. Claude Deveraux will be better in an open area. However Alex Raven would probably know exactly how to counter that particular fighting style due to her upbringing, training and experience.
Winner: Alexis Raven

2.
Benny Carbassa vs. Bryce Korland
Benny Carbassa will finally get what he deserves. Bryce Korland will stab, torture and burn Benny to a crisp and repeat that until he gets bored and takes Carbassas head. Good riddance!
Winner: Bryce Korland

3.
Andrew Donelly vs. Caspian
I doubt it'll matter if Donnelly tried to block or not. Caspian probably only needs one swing.
Winner: Caspian

4.
Anton Legris vs. Carlo Sendaro
Carlo Sendaro would take what he wanted, the head of a peaceful man like Anton Legris would be no problem.
Winner: Carlo Sendaro

5.
Axel Whittaker vs. Arthur Drakov
It'll be a nice fight but I think Whittaker would be more resourceful and beat Drakov.
Winner: Axel Whittaker

6.
Cardinal Giovanni vs. Carl Robinson
Carl Robinson would find himself extremely outmatched. He'll die on his knees with a crucifix-shaped dagger in his back after exchanging a few swings & parries before he could even try and think of a strategy.
Winner: Cardinal Giovanni

[JedimstrCR]

1. Raven - She was meant to be better than she looked in the episode...I'll chalk that up to the actress's shortcomings, not the character. Claude was probably a tough dude but he showed that mindgames would do him in, and I think Alex could take advantage of that.
2. Korland - Wow, can't believe this guy is going to win a match!
3. Caspian - Slice n' dice.
4. Sendaro - He'll make short work of Anton.
5. Whittaker - Both looked good in their fights against MacLeod...Axel a bit moreso.
6. Giovanni - Carl would make this a decent match because of his raw athleticism, but unlike Axel I don't have enough on Carl to put him over the reputation of Giovanni.

[Colleengael]

1 Claude in an open fight. His size and strength gives him an advantage over Alex.
2 Korland
3 Caspian
4 Carlos
5 Axel
6 Carl because of his athleticism and we do know he studied with both Duncan and Matthew McCormick. As for Giovanni...since he wasn't mentioned at all in the novel about Darius and Greyson during their conquering days...and his background was only shown on film as being on holy ground any skills he had or things from old scripts that weren't filmed don't prove to me he was on the same skill level as Methos or Kurgan.

[Aragorn]

1.
Alexis Raven vs. Claude Deveraux

Tie breaker. Okay, so this match is tough because I think BOTH were supposed to be better than they looked and they both looked pretty bad, IMO. Hmm.... hmmmm.... uh ... Claude. I agree if Raven could play the long game she could take this but I'm assuming you're kinda throwing them into an arena and they're duking it out. So Claude, I guess.
VOTE: Claude

2.
Benny Carbassa vs. Bryce Korland

Korland was awful but Carbassa is so bad he almost shouldn't even be in the tourny. LOL
VOTE: Korland

3.
Andrew Donelly vs. Caspian

Caspian wins easily. VOTE: Caspian

4.
Anton Legris vs. Carlo Sendaro

Sendaro; don't know anything about Legris and Sendaro was actually pretty decent. VOTE: Sendaro

5.
Axel Whittaker vs. Arthur Drakov

I agree, Axel would take him. He's faster, stronger and would take this in due time. VOTE: Axel

6.
Cardinal Giovanni vs. Carl Robinson

I agree with Colleen that Giovanni is basically garbage. I think Carl would take him. Maybe not? But I know Carl is a competent fighter and in theory Gio in his prime SHOULD be but I don't know that for certain.
VOTE: Carl Robinson

[Aragorn]

ROUND 2

Claude Deveraux d. Alexis Raven
Bryce Korland d. Benny Carbassa
Caspian d. Andrew Donelly
Carlo Sendaro d. Anton Legris
Axel Whittaker d. Arthur Drakov
Cardinal Giovanni d. Carl Robinson

[Aragorn]

ROUND 2

1.
Alexei Voshin vs. Christoph Kuyler

2.
Bartholomew vs. Caleb Cole

3.
Andrew Cord vs. Damon Case

4.
Kalas vs. Carl the Hermit

[Mr.Slash]

1.
Christoph Kuyler - They seem to be evenly matched. But I give the assassin the edge.

2.
Caleb Cole - I think this could go either way, it will depend primarily on where they are standing. I don't think bart could handle Caleb's erratic, brute force style. For the record, Duncan vs Caleb was my favorite fight of season 1.

3.
Damon Case - I think Case is WAY underrated. He kills immortals. It is his life. Period. As he said to Duncan, for 1,000 years.

4.
Kalas - Kalas is a stone cold killer. He would probably not give a shit about ol' Carl's secrets either.

[Nicholas Ward]

1.
Alexei Voshin vs. Christoph Kuyler
Voshin was an interesting character but a poor fighter. Kuyler would win the shenanigans game even if it was on Voshins boat.
Winner: Christoph Kuyler


2.
Bartholomew vs. Caleb Cole
Caleb was good & fierce, Bartholomew was calculating and defensive. Cole is good however against a sword and shield combination he'd lose.
Winner: Bartolomew

3.
Andrew Cord vs. Damon Case
Interesting fight. Case has been a player of the Game for an incredible amount of time. His skill however wasn't that great and he did mostly challenge newbies. ANdrew Cord was a modern war veteran and showed some decent skill with his sabre. Ironically his close knife combat or ranged skills are even better. I'm giving this to Cord for being more versatile.
Winner: Andrew Cord

4.
Kalas vs. Carl the Hermit
Not really a contest, Carl loses his head fast.
Winner: Kalas

[JedimstrCR]

1. Kuyler - Fairly even match. I'd wager Kuyler has a few more tricks in his bag though.
2. Cole - Hmmm...tough one. Bartie had the sword and shield combo and a history as a crusader. I would imagine though that he didn't involve himself in the fighting as much...probably got others to protect him (he seems the type). Cole on the other hand was a self-made man who was surprisingly good with his roughhousing style. I'm going with Cole by a whisker.
3. Case - Damon certainly had a great backstory, but the fact that we met him while he was hunting a total newbie doesn't help his...case (hehe). Cord looked pretty good against MacLeod, but then again it was on his own turf and he used a significant amount of hit and run tactics. On neutral ground, I'll give it to Case...only just.
4. Kalas - The only no-brainer of this round for me.

[Nicholas Ward]

Even immortals have holidays it seems...

[Aragorn]

Christoph Kuyler d. Alexei Voshin
Caleb Cole d. Bartholomew
Damon Case d. Andrew Cord
Kalas d. Carl the Hermit

2ND ROUND

1.
Sharon Collins vs. Silas

2.
Reno (?) vs. Zoltan Laszlo

3.
Richard Tarsis vs. The Elder (who the hell is that?)

4.
Paul Karros vs. Warren Cochrane

[Nicholas Ward]

1.
Sharon Collins vs. Silas
Another easy win for Silas.

2.
Reno vs. Zoltan Laszlo
Fun little fight, Reno takes this fairly easy because Laszlo will forget to duck eventually.

3.
Richard Tarsis vs. The Elder
Tarsis will have a hell of a time dragging the Elder from holy ground and hacking through. But he'll do it.

4.
Paul Karros vs. Warren Cochrane
Warren Cochrane will win against poor Karros

[Aragorn]

Who is Reno and who is "The Elder"? I have no clue who these people are. Is "Reno" the Vegas Immortal that kills Danny Cimoli or is he one of the goons from Highlander 2 with the flying surf boards?

[JedimstrCR]

Yes, Reno is one of Katana's goons (along with Corda).

1. Silas - Duh.
2. Reno - Eh, he hung in with (rusty) Connor for a bit. That's enough for me.
3. The Elder - Actually, I'm going to invoke the "Prime" clause and remind everyone that you can take people at any point in their Immortal life. For this guy, it would be when he and the Guardian initially approached the Source, which would be well before he turned into an Immortal Jabba the Hutt. Tarsis wasn't much...I feel like the Elder could take him. Aragorn, correct me if I'm wrong in the interpretation of the rules, and I will gladly reconsider my vote.
4. Cochrane - Warren was tough as nails, and Karros would eventually crack.

[Mr.Slash]

2ND ROUND

1.
Silas - A 1 vs at least a 9. This would be horrible. Too bad Axel isn't here so he could die too.

2.
Reno -

3.
The Elder - Like Jedi, I am going with the Prime rule here because Tarsis was weak.

4.
Paul Karros - This would be a damn good fight because they are fairly even. I could see it going either way, but today I choose Karros.

[Mr.Slash]

Who is Reno and who is "The Elder"? I have no clue who these people are. Is "Reno" the Vegas Immortal that kills Danny Cimoli or is he one of the goons from Highlander 2 with the flying surf boards?

Reno is a lacky from Highlander 2. The Elder is from The Source.

[Aragorn]

2ND ROUND

Silas d. Sharon Collins
Reno d. Zoltan Laszlo
The Elder d. Richard Tarsis
Warren Cochrane d. Paul Karros

(I won't cast votes this set of matches as I don't care enough to tie these up. But I would have voted for Laszlo over Reno and Tarsis over Elder. Laszlo wasn't probably great but anyone with enough guts to go after Brian Cullen could probably beat someone like Reno who basically was immortal for like 24 hours before he got his head chopped off. And the Elder's skills in his prime would have been so out dated that Tarsis's little trick move probably works on him so I would have voted Tarsis. That being said, I'll leave the results as is.)

[Aragorn]

2ND ROUND:

1.
Pierre Segur vs. Tyler King

2.
Sean Burns vs. Steven Keane (funny, huh?)

3.
Reagan Cole vs. Xavier St. Cloud

4.
Roland Kantos (no magic) vs. Sunda Kastigir

[JedimstrCR]

1. Segur - Eh...this one is essentially a coin toss. Segur was targeted by Hyde, but who knows what his criterion for SEASONED IMMORTALS was other than age. Still, Duncan really thought that he had a chance of winning. King was a cherry-picking punk.
2. Keane - Wow, sucks for these two. Assume that we take all emotion out of it, Keane was the warrior...not Burns.
3. St. Cloud - Reagan was probably good. Xavier was great.
4. Kastagir - Kastagir's defense was extremely stout. I didn't see anything out of Kantos that would suggest he would be able to penetrate it without his cheating voice.
