Huzurdaddi selected his champion: silicis.

Antrax? The fallen fire king? Why didn't I think of him? That banefire shield is nothing to sneeze at...

Anthrax is good at killing things (even after his own death), but I wouldn't bet on Anthrax surviving 15 different encounters. Couple of solid hits from some Tartarian and Anthrax is gone. But of course, Zen probably came up with some idea I haven't thought of

Hmm... Phoenix Pyre+Regenerate+Banefire of DOOM = teh h4wt, but without the Sandals of the Crane, survival is still a problem. Maybe there's an E1 A1 empowerment involved?

Phoenix Pyre is not very helpful in such contest, if the opposition has managed to land enough hits when your SC was conscious, surely it will have no problems doing it again to unconscious SC. To me this plan only looks good if the goal is to annihilate enemy SC at any cost. I'm getting really curious what Zen has came up with...

Generally, I don't think one can design SC who could reliably win such a contest. It's more a matter of luck (between few designs). I had 3 designs which could do pretty well, but each of them had a weak spot, other design could easily exploit. I think that it will be pair matching which will decide the contest.
