Grimm Wiki:Löwen Games/2017

Check the results at Challonge or down below.

The Löwen Games are back for the final time! All Wesen species who appeared in though  were eligible to compete. No humans, Grimms, non-Wesen beings, comic Wesen, novel Wesen or Wesen mentioned/seen in the Grimm diaries only were eligible. Zerstörer was also ineligible due to being overpowered compared to the other Wesen. Seedings were done using a random number generator. Numbers were assigned to each Wesen based on their names in alphabetical order. The Mauvais Dentes was awarded the #1 seed as the defending champion.

The rules:


 * 1) If you die, you lose.
 * 2) If you win, you live to fight another day.
 * 3) We are not responsible for band-aids or pain relievers. And if you get blinded, zombified, burned, or get any other non-life threatening injuries, toughen up.

Reporters
Matches are assigned to each reporter using a random number generator to help keep things balanced. The reporters write up the matches, and to avoid the possibility for the writers to sway the results based on their brackets, the results are heavily influenced by the Challonge polls, which are voted on by everyone who filled out a bracket. For example, if one Wesen receives 95% of the votes, then they will have a 95% chance of winning the fight, and if the Wesen with a 5% chance of winning ends up being victorious, the reporter will have to be much more creative in what they write up in order to explain the results.

The reporters:
 * WesenZoo - 4th tournament reporting
 * Bheadr27 - 3rd tournament reporting
 * Grimmaniac - 2nd tournament reporting

Seeds
As the defending champion, the Mauvais Dentes automatically received the #1 seed.

Standings/Results
Wesen that won in the first 66 didn't get a higher seeding because they had an extra win and Wesen who lost in the first 66 were automatically tied for last place. Wesen that lost in the round of 64 were one place ahead of Wesen who lost in the first 66 even though they each had 1 loss.

Gedächtnis Esser vs. Bauerschwein
"Welcome to the 2017 Löwen Games! The crowd here is excited, woged, and ready to go! All factions of various Wesen are here, both in the stands, as well as among our competitors, which should make for all sorts of interesting matches. With our first match of the 2017 Löwen Games, we had two feisty competitors who had clearly been raised for the sole purpose of competing in this tournament. As the match was signaled to start, the Gedächtnis Esser and Bauerschwein charged straight at each other with no regard for what may happen next. The Bauerschwein actually put up a decent fight, ferociously swatting away at his competitor's tentacles to keep them from attaching to his head, even biting down on one, but this only seemed to enrage the Gedächtnis Esser even more, who simply picked up the poor Bauerschwein by the waist and performed a wrestling-like body slam on him. With the Bauerschwein momentarily stunned and grabbing at his back in pain, the Gedächtnis Esser attached his remaining useful tentacles to his competitor's head and drained all his memories and remaining sanity from him, leaving him an unconscious mess. The crowd cheered as the Gedächtnis Esser raised his hand in victory, but he quickly fled the arena as several Blutbaden descended from the stands, apparently to just feed on the helpless Bauerschwein. I'm sure this will go over well with the Bauerschwein onlookers in the crowd..."

Scharfblicke vs. Skalenzahne
"This match was hardly a match at all. The poor Scharfblicke stood no chance against the Skalenzahne, who many members of the crowd will recognize as the superstar power forward for the Portland Trail Blazers. The Skalenzahne stands at a massive 6'10" with fantastic speed and elite strength. The Skalenzahne quickly charged the Scharfblicke and proceeded to eat the owl-like creature's head!"

Höllentier vs. Unnamed Red Herring-like Wesen

Klaustreich vs. Musasat Alsh-Shabab
"Many people had no idea how this match would go, and it ended up being a fairly evenly match fight. The Musasat Alsh-Shabab was trying his hardest to knockout or stun the Klaustreich to make it easier to attach his mouth to the Klaustreich's face. He finally manage to land a left hook squarely to the Klaustreich's face, knocking her to the ground and the Musasat Alsh-Shabab quickly took advantage to suck the Yanbue from the Klaustreich, but he wasn't quick enough as the Klaustreich manages to dig her claws into the Musasat Alsh-Shabab's neck, causing his blood to drip all over her face in victory."

Hässlich vs. Manticore
"As some may have expected, this match was not one that tested the endurance and stamina of either competitor. The Hässlich was not particularly bright in his approach, and rather than try to keep at bay of the Manticore's deadly tail, he instead tried to charge right at him, but the Manticore was more than ready. The Hässlich practically impaled himself on his competitor's tail as the Manticore didn't even break a sweat in this one. With an Eisbiber due up next, the crowd expects another quick match for the Manticore; however, seeing as the competitors are quite literally fighting for their lives, it would probably be unwise for the Manticore, or any of the other fighters for that matter, to take his next opponent lightly."

Jägerbar vs. Reinigen
"This was one of the fastest matches in March, or in this case April, Madness Löwen Games history. It appears that the Reinigen was deaf, so she did not hear the signal for the fight to begin, and for some reason she had her back to the Jägerbar, who simply ran up and snapped the Reinigen's neck."

Mellifer vs. Varme Tyv
Reporter: Bheadr

Mauzhertz vs. Furis Rubian
"This match posed two Wesen against each other that aren't known for having violent reputations. Because of this, there was a noticeable lack of energy and anticipation from the crowd for this one, but some unintentional comedy led to a pretty raucous crowd afterwards anyway. We hope the end result in this one was worth the price of admission! When the match got underway, both contestants woged, and the frightening appearance of the male Furis Rubian scared the Mauzhertz half to death. Immediately, the Mauzhertz tried to scurry off and run away from the Furis Rubian, but he was so panicked, he simply ran head-first into a wall. As the crowd burst into laughter, the Furis Rubian, a little unsure of what to do at first, simply walked over to the Mauzhertz and ended the poor Wesen's misery, quickly snapping his neck."

Lebensauger vs. Fuchsbau
Reporter: Bheadr

Taureus-Armenta vs. Ziegevolk
"In an outcome that some considered to be an upset, the Taureus-Armenta emerged victorious in this one, though not without some side effects of the fight. Not one to fear much, the Taureus-Armenta charged at his competitor as soon as the match began. The Ziegevolk had charged up a great deal of pheromones, however, and quickly jumped out of the way of the Taureus-Armenta as he ran through a cloud of both dust and the Ziegevolk's charm. The Taureus-Armenta sniffed the air in a daze, momentarily rendered completely non-aggressive. The Ziegevolk, thinking he had the advantage, carelessly walked up to his opponent to make his next move, but he never got to. A Ziegevolk's pheromones have more potency when physical contact is able to be made, and before the Ziegevolk could strike, seeming to forget that he had not actually touched the Taureus-Armenta yet, the Taureus-Armenta snapped out of his stupor and swung his head around, impaling the Ziegevolk with one of his horns straight through the throat. On impulse, the Ziegevolk grabbed onto the Taureus-Armenta, finally touching him, but after a few seconds, his arms fell lifelessly to his side. The Taureus-Armenta was brought to his knees as well, however, as apparently this final physical contact had some effect."

Dämonfeuer vs. Wettbewerbsgewinner
"The Wettbewerbsgewinner stood absolutely no chance against the Dämonfeuer. Before the Wettbewerbsgewinner could even think about his first move, he was already burning alive."

Aswang vs. Schakal
"How unfortunate for the Schakal that she was pregnant. The Aswang stuck her long tongue into the Schakal's bellybutton, which shocked the Schakal long enough the the Aswang managed to tackle her to the ground and beat her to death."

Quijada Vil vs. Hasenfussige Schnecke
Reporter: Bheadr

Cupiditas vs. Hexenbiest
"Word spread before this fight that the Cupiditas had stolen the hair of the Löwen who was primarily in charge of running this match, but seeing as almost anything goes in these tournaments... nobody seemed to really care! The match was signaled to begin, and the Cupiditas could be seen spitting into some sort of vial she had with her. No doubt this was an impromptu making of Amor de Infierno, a first in the Löwen Games. The Hexenbiest was not fazed at all though and stood her ground. She watched her opponent intently as the Cupiditas was cautious to approach her. Somehow, the Cupiditas was going to have to get the Hexenbiest to drink what was in that vial, and the Hexenbiest clearly knew this. She ominously started to slowly walk towards the Cupiditas, cornering her in the arena. Once she was too close for comfort, the Cupiditas suddenly became aggressive and threw the vial at the Hexenbiest's face, but the vial and its contents froze in mid-air inches from the Hexenbiest's face, before harmlessly dropping to the ground. As the Cupiditas watched in horror, she fell to her knees and desperately begged the Hexenbiest for mercy, knowing she was overmatched. The Hexenbiest glanced over at the Löwen, who smiled, flashing those vicious teeth of his, and turned his thumb down. The crowd cheered in delight as the Cupiditas then horribly started screaming in pain, but these screams quickly turned into a gurgling sound and then abrupt silence as some of the Cupiditas' internal organs were telekinetically pulled out of her mouth. ...And with that, I think I'm gonna be sick!"

Krampus vs. Skalengeck
"It's only early April, but the Skalengeck has already been very naught according to Krampus. The Skalengeck used his agility to get some hard hits in against Krampus, but the Skalengeck caught too close one too many times as when he went in for an attack, Krampus kicked the Skalengeck in the knee causing severe damage as his knee was suddenly very crooked. As the Skalengeck screamed in pain, Krampus walked up, knocked the Skalengeck onto his back, and stomped his face as hard as he could, crushing the Skalengeck's skull with the result resembling when Negan bashes skulls with Lucille."
