    Welcome to the Character Build Deathmatch!

    Each week 6 builds from the dark bowels of the Bloodworks are belched up and pitted against each other in a 24 hour battle for survival. The winner gets to live to fight another day, the losers however are served instant death.

    This week the following 6 builds have been dragged into the arena for your entertainment!

    The Dancer by Tyler Rowles

    The Oath Blade by Eric Bittner

    The Shadow of Tamriel by TiGz

    Sacred Archer by Zachery

    The Feral Orc by Dragonborn

    The Psionic Guild by RubyP

    Any build that scrapes 20 likes during the course of the match will progress into the next rank and will naturally escape death.

    Have fun reading and don't forget to vote in the poll for your favourite!

    Ben, what happened to the days of you being a hardass campaigning for all the deathmatch builds to die off?

    Hmmm well I guess my Feral Orc does need to go.
    So if I eventually do a remake of it, is that allowed or not.

    Quick correction: The Psionic Guild is by Rodrigo Castro Rezende. You have the author listed as RubyP. 

    Overall Im not too impressed with the selection. Im not sure who to vote for.

    I voted for the Dancer, cause, well, I've had a blue with the author. Nothing more then that. Oh, and it's not that great anyway

    Personally I like The Oath Blade the most but none of them really have that great presentation (including mine)which is the one thing stopping me from liking them.

    I don't like any of these builds. Maybe the Feral Orc because its a great idea(until I found out it was not even a real thing). Overall these Builds need to die.

    If you don't mind can you tell me exactly why you think my build is bad because it's not real. You seemed to like it a lot and I personally don't understand.

    I loved that idea of yours that's why. Then you told me that there is no such thing as this faction of Orcs. I was all like, dude why you gotta say that?

    Other than that, it was pretty decent. I just didn't like how they aren't real. They need to be apart of lore somewhere. An idea that good should be considered by Bethesda.

    Well thanks a lot then I guess the way you worded it made me think you hated it.

    Not really liking any of these... All are either generic, or seem to have some strange multiple personality and use skills that seem out of place or haven't been justified. Times like this make me wish we had a "kill them all" button...

    Kill'em all, and let God sort'em out.

    Hard to be enthusiastic about any of 'em, if I'm being honest

    Honesty is only present when the turth becomes irrelevant.

    the truth... I want to say it, but it would be so demeaning. For me, and these builders that tried on their builds.

    Does Tyler know he has liked his own build, the Dancer?

    Probably. I know he was told multiple tomes on his other builds to remove his like but refused.

    Not something to really pussy-freak over, but you should report people when they do that. It's essentially cheating.

    I gave a two builds (Oath & Psionic) a +1, but I was unable to vote (vote poll is missing). No matter, I did not feel that strongly about any of them.

    This Deathmatch is now over!

    The Dancer was the winner in the poll but has failed to move to recognized and may yet face trouble in future matches!

    The rest have unfortunately perished and the CB group has lost some weight...

    Join us next time!

    I agree, it's not something to go completely mad about since it won't make much difference at all. I also wouldn't call it cheating, more like embarrassing yourself... Similar to liking your own profile pictures on Facebook, or something equally sad...
