MTG Salvation

**When it was their turn to fight, the two were led to the center of the massive arena, whose packed-sand floor was stained in various places with what could only be blood. The stands were choked with thousands of elves and men, all intently watching the spectacle about to unfold.

As their attendants scampered away, a large bell rang somewhere above. It began.**

Olivar, smiling and with no aspirations, extended his right arm to shake hands.

Olivar - "Are you ready for a good, clean fight?"

Olivar - "Oh! Well, that's better than what my last opponent said. So lets get started!"

Olivar held onto his opponents hand and threw a punch at Sari's face with his other hand.

Well, that worked so well, olivar is going to do it again!

And it's so much friendlier to get punched in the face while holding hands, isn't it?

I'm sorry, I was on a Magic bender and didn't reply for a while. Also, this post broke my brain. So Sari ducked beneath her own arm? What does that look like? Is she double jointed?

Is Sari Double Jointed, or did she go underneath, stop, and go backwards to get back up? Keeping hold of Arro's hand while turning 360 degrees would require one of us to let go, unless you are rubbery.

Olivar drew his Mage dagger and quickly tried to jab Sari in the hand (the one that he is holding), leaving no wound worse than a pinprick but if it struck, it would cost Sari some of her strength.

Olivar jumped back as well, staying just over a swords length away from his opponent. He held his Body Dagger in his right hand, arm extended, behind himself, and held his left arm forwards, perhaps as a taunt, or perhaps to block stuff maybe. He stood slightly crouched, ready to spring in any direction.

Oli ducked, dropping to all fours. Then, sensing an opportunity, came up from his crouched position and ran at Sari in a tackle maneuver.

And he did it Quickly. So it was both a Quick attack and a Tackle attack. So there.

Olivar was struck by the forearm, but it did not stop his momentum and he tackled Sari, then tried to attain a dominant position by putting his legs on either side of Sari's torso. He used his left hand to grab herright arm as he did so, and held his right hand up, so his dagger would stay out of reach until it was necessary.

Olivar has to go to his feet to stay vertically above Sari, taking his left hand off her arm and grabbing her kicking leg instead. That's not to say he was standing, more like crouching over her. Olivar tries to make a pinprick on Sari's leg with his Body Dagger, but is interrupted by being clobbered on the back by the hilt of a Scimitar. This caused him to stumble forward, letting go of Sari's leg to catch his balance.

So now, at the end of the post, Sari would still be on the ground, Scimitar in midair I guess, and Olivar is standing over her head area instead of over her torso area.

Olivar turns to face Sari, resuming a ready stance. his outstretched left arm did the ole "Come At Me" maneuver.

Olivar kept his eye on her, and followed her by turning in place, but otherwise waited for Sari to make the first move.

Oli didn't have quite enough reaction time to decide what the right thing to do was, and so was in the middle of attempting a somersault to his right when the whip struck his ankle. What happened then?
