Matalan swung at him with his sword. Dave started to dodge, but raised an arm to block it instead when he realized he couldn't get out of the way in time.
The sword impacted and slid across his arm but didn't do significant damage. He was shocked that the arm-parry worked, he didn't have the Skill.
The Death Knight was preparing another shield attack.
Dave sidestepped the incoming shield-bash and hit the Death knight with a flaming uppercut, spewing fire across his face, punishment for an overextended attack.
Dave kept moving, stepping around the Death Knight continuously and attacking, 'strafing' his opponent to keep him off balance and unable to aim or launch an attack.
After five consecutive attacks [Ramp Up] activated and his gauntlets took on a shimmering fiery glow.
You have caused an Overheating effect to your adversary.
They will lose
-500HP/second until the Overheating status is removed.
"Ha! A hidden bonus Effect, niiice!" Dave smiled and attacked again.
The Overheating status caused the Knight to be engulfed in flame, but he didn't look fazed. No, now he looked more terrifying with the fire burning all across his arnor and was truly enraged by the attacks.
"I ROSE FROM FIRE AND ASH! IS THAT ALL YOU GOT?!" He swung his blade and a crescent of black energy shot out toward Dave.
Dave activated [Double Edged] and [Vertical Slash] escaping the black energy and his own Skill at the same time just as the ground erupted. The Minhocao rose from under the earth and gnashed the Death Knight in its jaws then spat him out.
[-22,000]
While the Knight was still in the air Dave used [Demon's Maw], summoning a giant demon face to bite the Death Knight, stripping away another 5% of his total HP before he even fell back to the arena grounds.
[-17,500]
Dave clapped his hands together making a sound like thunder.The sky lit up and a flaming meteor descended, impacting the arena floor.
Another damage value appeared above the Death Knight depleting his hp, but he simply rose from the fiery rubble and faced Dave, "Not enough. Not nearly enough!"
[Aura] flickered out, having consumed all of Dave's Mana.
Dave smiled and smacked both fists together, a burst of flame rushed out from the gauntlets.
The draugr used [Immortal Apparition] to appear in front of the Death Knight then activated [Infernal Tornado] hoping to Stagger the Knight and buy himself some time.
But he realized that despite [Infernal Tornado] the Death Knight wasn't Staggered, his attack still incoming!
'Shit, Hyperarmor!'
Dave frantically used [Bastion] to nullify the Knight's attack.
Normally, [Bastion] caused him to take an immobile defensive posture for three seconds, so he was surprised when [Infernal Tornado] wasn't cancelled. The spinning attack continued, damaging the Death Knight and keeping the Overheated Status going.
The Death Knight's Hyperarmor almost cost Dave the match and his life.
Abruptly, Dave stopped and stepped back, disengaging from his opponent. Matalan gave him a puzzled, slightly disappointed look.
The draugr smiled, "Good fight. Thank you."
A spectral scythe swept through the Death Knight's neck in a decapitating cut, the match was over.
The Limbo effect from [Life Cleaver] cleared, revealing the draugr standing over the headless Death Knight.
The hordes of Undead howled and shouted, praising the winner of the match.
A notification opened up in front of Dave.

"I'll meet with the king first." Dave accepted the summons and disappeared from the arena.
