TROLLY vs PAIN

A little background on Troll Hunter Korh. I designed him to be an extreme long-term warrior, who would only start to peek between 250 and 300 fights. At this point in his career, he is only very partially developed. Trolly only has two masters, Morningstar and Initiative (which he just got a few turns back). The rest of his skills are 7's, 6's and 5's.  Trolly started off with a 3 INT and as you can see, that has been a really big handicap. Trolly also started out with a 25 SIZE. The combination of a 3 INT and 25 SIZE is one of the harder designs to run successfully and keep alive. I'm quite happy with TROLLY's development in general, but as I have been winding down my play, I just couldn't see myself running him for another 100 turns in order to see him peak. I wish I could give a real reason for why I monstered him along with Boriel and the dual PITT LORDs, but to be totally honest it was a very spontaneous decision. I just did it. Only afterwords did I really think about which of them would stand a chance against the monsters. Of the four warriors Trolly is the least developed, and I think he would need a miracle in order to beat any of the current monsters. Only a lucky perm kill would do the trick. I had him set up to run 9 BASH for the regular fights this turn, so when I clicked him to Monster, I thought it amusing that he might get one of the lungers and get in a lucky perm that does them in. I suppose if I had to place odds on Trolly, I would give him a 5% chance of beating any of the current monsters.
