Monday Night Games: VS United (April 24, 2017)

Just a fortnight after the inaugural edition of VS United, the exciting new format returned to Monday Night Games! This time, the competing team is a highly motivated one. The Fallen have been trying to prove their dominance of The United since the night after their reunion at Tower of Power XVIII. Their challenge would be a preview of this weekend's Spring Classic, bringing with it the reveal of The Fallen's newest addition -- and the introduction of a new VS United Championship rule!

The question of The Fallen's fifth fighter was soon answered with the introduction of their team line-up: "American Nightmare" LordSkarlet, legoslayer10, Sekktor, hydraslash & new addition redman! He certainly fits the theme of the "Red Reign" that LordSkarlet promises is coming.

Competing for The United this week: Shoe, Artanix, Murdoink, zelse & reigning KFL Champion Mime! Between them, this formidable force represents 1x Undisputed Championship, 8x Duo Division Championships, 6x KFL Championships, and 4x Division 2 Championships! Supreme skill!

The two newest members of the respective teams were chosen for the first contest. Despite it being his first match for The Fallen: redman had no trouble starting them off with a convincing +2 rated impact! The former KFL Champion was too strong for United rookie zelse. A 4 point start for The Fallen!

legoslayer10 tried to keep the momentum in The Fallen's favour against Murdoink. It was a hard fought contest, but it was Murdoink who found the edge to squeeze out a basic victory. 3 points for The United, meaning The Fallen stayed 1pt ahead.

With the overall points hanging in the balance, hydraslash attempted to apply his Duo Division expertise in countering the powers of Duo expert Artanix. The resulting clash was a shockingly one-sided decimation that left hydraslash utterly destroyed! The brutal +28 impact was too much for hydraslash, who succumbed to a devastating injury! The 30 point result put The United firmly in the lead - and means The Fallen are a man short for their 5-on-5 Survival Sequence at The Spring Classic!

Furious over his partner's fatal encounter, Sekktor challenged Mime to up the stakes by putting his KFL Championship on the line! The United agreed to the added stipulation, creating a new rule that means a bonus score of 3 points for a championship defense. Mime had no trouble rising to the occasion, defending the gold with a solid victory! He'll aim to do the same at The Spring Classic when he defends the title against Pre-Show 92 Battle Royal winner NovaStarr!

The final battle was an emotionally charged face-off between team leaders! The game was forgotten as LordSkarlet attempted to avenge his fallen comrade, and strike back against the dominant United! Shoe took no pleasure from hydraslash's injury, but wouldn't allow The American Nightmare to walk all over him! He stood firm against The Fallen leader, scoring a solid win for 4 points. The defeat was enough to set LordSkarlet off! Before storming out of the arena LordSkarlet warned Shoe he was going to pay dearly at Spring Classic, because they would now meet inside a Steel Cage!

The ominous announcement hung over proceedings as The United were declared winners: 43 points against The Fallen's 4 points. Because the result was not in the spirit of the VS United game, The United voted Artanix the Most Not Good United fighter of the week, despite his dominant result. Even with the penalty, Artanix never the less climbs to the top of the VS United Leader Board!
