Gladiator Round 6, Match 1 (The Championship): rooster vs. otter

[Rain Man]

This is indeed a puzzler. rooster's going to be slowed down for the first few minutes because those Olsen girls have bony knees, and he's in a two on one situation. I'm wondering if his best strategy is to immediately put the chain saw into the bouncy castle and then fight it out under the covers. That'll eliminate the cheerleader advantage, but it'll also mean that he can be tracked by sound while otter can't. I think he may be better off keeping it inflated.

This is a tough one.

And Otter just has to scratch him with the pocketknife. Keeping inflated is his only chance. Especially since there's no way he could use that chain saw with it deflated.

Rooster should immediately stick his bowie knife into the bouncy castle and get that thing going down.

But if it deflates, couldn't he quickly chainsaw his way out and run over and chain saw any bulges? I think he could get out quicker than otter and his little honey could.

Wouldn't that technically be leaving the arena? I was thinking you're "inside" a bouncy castle and you wouldn't be able to cut your way out. I guess it depends on how you look at it.

I think they are too close for the deflation to matter as much as people think. This isn't a cartoon where everything collapses with a comedy spitting sound. You are close together, and when the house is punctured you both might hit the ground fairly quickly and lose the bounce, but something is going to happen before it all goes dark.

I'm trying to figure out if rooster can kill otter without being scratched. Even if otter is maimed and starts gushing, couldn't he slice open rooster, win, then have a team of trauma surgeons start working on him?

otter might literally lose an arm and a leg, but I think he wins unless rooster can take his head.
