The final score abruptly widened to 4-2 in favor of Ves!
While the result was a bit predictable in hindsight, a lot of people still reacted negatively to this outcome.
"Are they even Lifers? How could they choose a metal mech over a biomech!"
"It's over for us if the mech pilots base their decisions on the win-loss records!"
"Traitors! Why didn't they give the Faerie Stinger a chance? It's clearly the better-looking of the two mechs!"
"I need to see what the fuss is all about. Are the Ferocious Piranhas truly special?"
The audience sounded more perplexed than angry for the moment. They never experienced the two mechs up close, so they found it very difficult to understand why the Ferocious Piranha merited so much praise.
Only by coming close to the mech in question would they be able to learn why Rez Killigan and Katarina Volsimar kicked the Faerie Stinger to the curb!
Once the discontent voices died down a bit, the show resumed.
