Two Bosses Enter: General Bjarngrim vs. Skadi the Ruthless

Filed under: Analysis / Opinion, Fan stuff, Features, Lore, Bosses, Two Bosses Enter


Two Bosses Enter ... but only One Boss Leaves, in WoW.com"s series of fantasy death matches. Welcome to Round Two of the five-man Wrath of the Lich King season. Grab a seat, and let"s get ready to rumble!

Before we begin setting up this week"s Two Bosses battle, let"s dispense with the inevitable. Click this link into the Way-Back Machine, crank up the estimable Mr. Murphy and get your party on.

There. All done? Now let"s get down to business, because the stakes are high in today"s Thunderdome deathmatch as General Bjarngrim (Halls of Lightning) meets Skadi the Ruthless. The general commanded an impressive 66% of the vote in his first-bracket battle against Sjonnir the Ironshaper. He"ll need the authority this week. His new opponent, Skadi, carved out an even larger first-round victory with his 82% thrashing of Dalronn and Skarvald.

Time for a quick review of the standard Two Bosses Thunderdome ground rules:
  • Assume that the opponents along with their minions share similar levels, health pools and comparative overall damage output.
  • This deathmatch takes place in Skadi"s territory (or a Thunderdome facsimile thereof), which shall in no way hinder General Bjarngrim from using his usual resources.
  • All the usual minions will be available to each boss.
  • Don"t get caught up in gameplay mechanics and what actual players might do in each encounter.
  • Don"t neglect style, story and scale.
And now, more audio love to set the gladiatorial mood: Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls ... Dyin" time"s here.
