Just when you thought the Champ was dead he pulls out a miracle victory to break WBellhaven's heart. Atlanta was dead in the water but the Milwaukee Brewers down 6-3 going into the 9th inning score 4 runs to give Atlanta the victory and 176 points.
Ironically WBellhaven had the Washington Nationals who were up 6-4 going into the 8th against the lowly Atlanta Braves. The Braves scored 2 in the 8th to tie and 1 in the 10th to win it 7-6. That lost cost WBellhaven 176 points. That's a 352 point swing for both Gladiators. But just to add insult to injury WBellhaven didn't have to pick at all today and he would be advancing to the Semis. He may have locked in his picks before Atlanta went 0-2. Either way its a very tough loss for WBellhaven and a tremendous win for Atlanta the Champ as he advances to the Semis. This has been the most dramatic battle in Battle Forum History no doubt. It's a shame somebody had to lose. Congratulations to Atlanta on winning this classic match!

The Champ survived that 1st Round Blood bath against WBellhaven and now will prepare to do battle with Masterone. Masterone has played masterfully (pun intended) in this Tournament. He's played it like a Chess match. He layed lowed in the 1st round and pounced the last few days to qualify for the Quarters. Masterone started off the Quarters against Brackson. It was a little rough in the beginning but Masterone's patience paid off as he dismantled the mighty Brackson to win easily. Now Masterone will try to make the Championship round for the 1st time and what better way to do that than to beat the Champ himself.
Atlanta is fortunate to be in this position and he knows it. By his own admission he thought it was over yesterday as he fell apart early. He was rescued by 2 great comebacks. The Braves beating Washington and Milwaukee scoring 4 runs in the 9th to down Seattle. Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good. The problem for Masterone is that Atlanta is both. It's always tough when you give a great Gladiator a 2nd chance. Now that Atlanta has new life he will renew his quest to become the 1st Gladiator to go back-to-back. This is going to be another epic battle in the Battle Forum.

Grambus has been the most consistent Gladiator in the Tournament. After cruising through the 1st Round Grambus then had to take on Battle Forum Powerhouse Upset City. It was a hard fought battle but Grambus's consistency was too much for Upset City. Now Grambus will go for the Family double as he takes on Upset City's younger brother Degosfinest. It was Grambus's last day run in the 1st Round that prevented the Brothers from facing each other in the Quarters. So there is a back story to this matchup already.
Degosfinest is a Battle Forum Powerhouse as well. It's his 2nd appearance in the Semifinals and he's determined to win the Battle Forum Trophy to match his Brother's. Speaking of his Brother, revenge is very much on the mind of Degosfinest. Degosfinest is not only looking to end Grambus's run but he really wants a piece of Atlanta to avenge last year's lost to him in the Quarters. So there's alot on the line for Degosfinest and there is no question the motivation is there. But he will have to go through the powerful Grambus to get there. You better grab some popcorn and beer because this is going to be one hella battle.

ATLANTA-MASTERONE CAP A BLOODY DAY IN THE BATTLE FORUM!
Atlanta and Masterone did damage to each other while both sustained losses points. It's been a strange Battle Forum in that regard and Day 1 of the Semifinals brings home the point. It's the first time in the Semifinals that all 4 Gladiators lose points the 1st Day. Let's hope Day 2 goes better.

Grambus has picked the wrong time to go into a mini slump as he posted another big loss when he lost 110 points. Degosfinest was basically flat with a 0 for the day. That pretty much sums up this battle so far but we know the fireworks will be coming shortly.

A hush fell over the crowd as Masterone demonstrated his vast mental powers by flooring Atlanta simply by looking at him. It was a sight to see. Atlanta lost 423 points, by far his worst day. Meanwhile all Masterone pretty much did was walk around staring at Atlanta and taunting him. The Champ is in an early hole but this battle has just begun. No doubt it's going to take alot more than just staring at the Champ to knock him out.

It was vintage Atlanta still upset and seething by the way Masterone taunted him yesterday. Atlanta's fans loved it. Despite sleepwalking through most of the early parts of this match Masterone still maintains the lead. This battle is going to get even more intense as Summer winds down.

Atlanta looks like he's finding his Championship form as he extended his lead over Masterone significantly. Masterone suddenly looks lost in the sauce. Masterone hasn't had a point gain yet in this battle as we head into the 1st weekend. He needs to get going before this thing gets out of hand. Atlanta is starting to feel it so it very well could get out of hand early in this battle.

Degosfinest is catching his stride now. He has extra motivation now that some of Degosfinest girls has come to the Battle Forum for the weekend. His fans travel well and represent the hometown of San Diego with drop dead gorgeous looks. Some people call them the Pep squad we just call them Degosfinest and they're here in full force as their hero puts on a show. Degosfinest finished the day 3-0 gaining 300 points in this Semifinal clash with the powerful Grambus. Things are going to get very interesting this weekend as these 2 Gladiators continue to pound each other with haymakers. Don't be surprised if Degosfinest pep squad don't make a ruckus as they usually do when they show up for these battles.

Masterone better start responding to Atlanta's body blows or this could get ugly in a hurry. In fact it's already starting to get ugly as Masterone posted his 2nd huge loss in a row. Masterone lost another 310 points following his 320 point lost on Thursday. Atlanta is being very conservative and not going for the homerun. That strategy is proven very effective as Masterone is imploding under the pressure of facing the Champ. Today will be a key day in this battle. Masterone must stop the bleeding because Atlanta is on a roll now and there's blood in the water.

Masterone was like an artist painting a masterpiece. Masterone fans were exuberant by their hero's performance.

Grambus is putting Degosfinest on notice. Grambus posted his 4th day in a row of positive gain and 7 of the last 8. Grambus has been by far the most consistent Gladiator of the Tournament. Any thoughts that Degosfinest had of defeating Grambus are surely becoming a fantasy at this point. Degosfinest lost 300 points today on top of the 107 point lost yesterday. This Semifinal match is going into the last 4 days and Degosfinest better turn on the afterburners if he has any hopes of going to the Championship round.

Masterone seems to hitting Atlanta with surgical strikes to the body. This battle seems like it's stuck in molasses or something as neither Gladiator can get anything going consistently. We have yet another lead change as Masterone has taken a slight lead over the Champ. The one thing that's weird about this battle is that both Gladiators remain in the negative. This is highly unusual. We now head into the homestretch of this Semifinal clash. We expect the fans of both Gladiators to bring the energy as we enter the final days and conclusion of this battle.
