"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!" A Booming and energetic voice explodes through the speakers set up around the enormous stadium. A deep and gravely voice, like someone who spent too much time smoking and decided now would be a good time to start screaming for their entire life. "WELCOME TO THE FORTIETH BIANNUAL VYTAL FESTIVAL!" The crowd erupted into a ceremonious cheer, whoops and hollers came from all corners of Remnant as people tuned into the match from home. "I AM YOUR ANNOUNCER, VULCO DENTRES, AND I WILL BE SERENADING YOU WITH THE SOOTHING SOUND OF MY VOICE DURING THE COURSE OF THE MATCH- JUST KIDDING, F ҉ ҉ KERS-" A loud, annoying BEEEP filled the arena. Of course, this of all events was kid friendly. "WHY WOULD I DO THAT!? I'M GOING TO SIT BACK AND LET YOU ENJOY THE PURE UNBRIDLED COMBAT! PREPARE YOURSELVES, IN THIS FIRST ROUND, WE HAVE TWO BEACON STUDENTS. IN THE FIRST CORNER, WE HAVE VIRIDIAN BRANDT, WHO'S APPARENTLY AN EX-CHAMPION OR SOME SH ҉ T BUT I'VE NEVER HEARD OF HIM! IN THE OTHER CORNER, WE HAVE EDDY MIDORI, LET'S SEE IF HE CAN BE THE NEW "CHAMPION"! NOW ONTO THE ENVIRONMENTAL SPINNER, OR AS I LIKE TO CALL IT, THE ANTI-ENVIRONMENTAL SPINNER! ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES ISN'T THE SAME THING AS POLITICS, DEREK, SHUT UP!" The crowd, though somewhat confused, cheered heartily.
A large holographic image of a lottery machine appears on all sides of the arena, with two spinners. The spinners spun so quickly, making it nearly impossible to make out the passing words. It ticked through the options slower and slower until it finally stopped on Tundra and Ocean.
"I HOPE YOU LIKE FREEZING WATER!"
The floor of the arena lowered and, in its place, arose two new floors. Viridian's half became a winter wonderland, complete with snowy hills, snow covered evergreen trees, and a light snowfall. Meanwhile, Eddy's half became a shallow, freezing cold ocean, though the water got deeper the further out from the center of the arena you went. In place of the usual islands were now icebergs, and in place of the pirate shit was a icebreaker ship.
Just then, the doors on each side of the arena opened and, from them, out strolled the combatants.
(A coin flip decided Viridian gets the first post. The arena size is that of the 1v1 arena in the show, but still features biomes, though scaled down. Good luck, contestants.)
