[@KoL] "Also, what's up with the talk about Syphax being impaled by Ira's sword while being burned alive, leaving him near dead? Why did everyone developed a sudden burst of vitality out of the blue and are shrugging everything thrown at them?"

As I usually say, nobody wants to die like a chump, ESPECIALLY when it's their last character on the field.
