The Proving Grounds XXVI - Beach Brawl!
The fish has all been fried, the chips all finished or tossed out to the gulls, and Eorzea prepares to match until the milder Autumn moons, but there is one last heat wave to take advantage of before all of that settles in! One last bloody hurrah for the sunny beaches as we go to paint that pristine sand crimson. That’s right, the Proving Ground’s Beachside Brawl is upon us! Break out your swimwear one more time, grab a fruity drink with seven umbrellas, and watch as some of the fighter roster’s finest slug it out in one of the most demanding tourneys cooked up! Because it’s not just a single brutal beating sending challengers home tonight, our losers will have a chance to prove themselves worthy of another shot at the dagger through a double elimination style tournament!
Headlining the first fight is the very first champion versus champion match in the history of the Proving Grounds! Freshly crowned as the first Golden Dagger champion, the well weathered Highlander showman Rothgar Gunnarsvard will be taking on the only remaining Ivory Dagger champion and the fighter with the most bouts under their belt, Bremwyda Abylnpfefwyb! Two titans of the games squaring off for the first time, bringing the weight of their titles to bear against each other is an intro match you do not want to miss!
The other half of our unfortunate souls who’ll be put through the ringer repeatedly this time around is made up by the masked Steppe warrior Kojhin Oronir and his quest for another bloody brawl, and his ‘Ghostly’ opponent Silam Kisuk who’s eager to have a rematch against the relentless force from the East. These two have clashed beautifully before, and the both of them have only had time to reflect on the ways they’d go about murdering one another more efficiently since then!
And of course, we’ll get to watch all four of these hardened veterans of the sands on a very different stage out in Eastern La Noscea, and they’ll be earning their chance to take their battered ass to task right around again to claw at another handful of glory. This one is going to be special, folks! Gather at the rear pavilion (( 36.5 , 25.5 )) in Eastern La Noscea on ((Saturday, September 7th)) at ((8 PM EST, 5 PM PST))!
