Welcome back again, my dear sleuths, to yet another case study\~

Whilst i will very much say i LOVED being able to finally sub during the last post (which i have also now pinned due to the amount of time and effort in it) - i think we're all due a little reminder of why i'm still in my office, and not some underground sex dungeon\~  
(i'm sure some of you are thrilled at the thought but.. ahem. Anyway)

On today's docket was a duel against u/lovleyqueen \- the queen of the labyrnth formally extending a challenge of wits to the detective's office.  
Partially out of pride, partially out of sheer, giddy curiosity, i decided to accept.  
Keen eyed sleuths may have noticed how me and her already crossed fists in the past - ending with me humiliating her on the Streets of Deadlock's NYC.  
This time around, she'd be meeting me on my hunting ground of the Sanctum Sanctorum in Marvel Rivals.. how exciting

(I add this on request of Queenie; we all know how day-night these places can be. She, like me, does not sub for everyone. If you enter her dms seeking the same treatment that i *earned*, you will see yourself out of them not long after, disappointed. Kay? cool.)

Now then, with the usual setup out of the way, let me retell the story of how i showed the Queen how little her status was worth to me\~

**Fight!**

**Round 1: Hela vs Jubilee**  
Off to an interesting start - my dear opponent was seemingly stumbling about the area for roughly 2 minutes or so, leading me to believe she may be stalling for the time to get low and then cheese a kill or two to win by time out..  
Should that have been her strategy, tho - it would've failed terribly. As when my eyes finally landed on the adorable Healer, there was no Mercy.  
Time and Time again, my blades soared through the Air, meeting their mark only to have the wound close before the little mutant could prolly even register the damage. Quite bothersome, having to play into a mutant able to outsustain me by simply staying behind cover and hugging her Orbs.. nevertheless, i did not let my resolve falter - even if it meant having to go for increasingly risky plays. Yet even when dancing on the line of life and death multiple times.. i am it's goddess, after all\~ And as such, naturally - i left the little mutant pinned to the floor, blade at her throat as i took what was rightfully mine from her.. in a Steamrolling 6-0

**Round 2: Black Cat vs Squirrel Girl**  
Whilst by herself the Squirrel is less of a threat in duels per-se then other characters, i must admit her damage is still very much to be respected. So, naturally, i'd have to outwit my opponent on this one.  
Using my invincibility on my Purrrrrsuit to avoid her projectiles abit, using my dash and the occasional crown of hadar to close the distance..   even being hit by an accorn or two, yet having the cool head to focus on using my Whip for damage...  
For not one, not two, but thirteen confrontations back to back did i prove why i stand superior over the adorable thigh-thighed divebait.  
Quite proud of this one, i must admit. Especially because i REALLY don't play Cat enough to be truly good at her.

**Round 3: Psylocke vs Magik**  
Okay, small admittance here. I am not a good psylocke. So when locking her in at what amounted to be match-point (the agreed format was best of 5 / first to 3)  
i was sweating bullets abit.  
Even moreso when i saw who i was facing; the dive queen of limbo herself, Magik. Fortunately for me, however - i'm the fkn Goat.  
Even with the self-imposed handicap and into what amounted to be a very dangerous matchup WHO WAS ALSO CAMPING HEALTHPACKS -  
I was able to endure. Slicing my way, first through her demons, then through her clothes - the "Darkchylde" had no options left but to give in to my Psionic Assault, head spinning from my Mind Games.. and maybe from assaulting her pleasure centers abit too much x

**Round 4: White Fox vs Luna Snow**  
With the outcome of the match already decided, this was now purely for the sake of showing Dominance. Having been beaten so thoroughly on DPS - the Queen, now reduced to nothing more then a princess at best and a servant at worst, beseeched me to fight her on a Healer. After all, then the odds would be.. fair\~  
Little did the pathetic princess know that white fox is prolly amongst my best characters - with my suffering a single death in an attempt to slap her to death .. purely to humiliate her even more\~  
No matter how hard she tried to iceskate away, putting on a danceshow for my entertainment, or how many snowballs she landed.. it all amounted to nothing as i was simply supreme <3

**Round 5: Angela vs White Fox**  
In what could only be described as a sad attempt at replicating my success, the princess tried her best to imitate me on white fox.. i couldn't help but give in to the fantasy of hunting the brat down; resulting in my pick of Angela. Since i had already won the main dueling segment anyhow, i cared little for my inexperience on the character. This was purely to send a message\~  
Now admittedly, the Fox proved abit more sturdy then i had hoped - due to her regen in awakened form and my lack of any real ranged option, i had no choice but to let her bite her teeth and stumpen her claws on my shield until her form ran out.  
Once she had lost her stamina, the princess proved easy prey. Impaled, Sliced, smashed into the ground and forced to suffer the Wrath of the Hand of Heven.. there was little mercy left in me after her attempts at fighting back <33

And so, we come to the result;  
With me as the Victor of the Duel, in not only the required but ALL of the Rounds played, i made the oh so noble queen my healslut for 2 games. Whilst her peformance was.. lackluster, to say the least, her Teamup to me on Scarlet Witch ended up more useful then her body - enabling me to get SVP and MVP in the 2 rounds we played.

And as such, we come to the end of this Study.  
As always, i would kindly thank all of you as per usual for reading.  
Being deserving of your time, and being the cause of Joy for some of ya.. makes me really damn happy <33

your distortion detective  
\-ammy

(tiny addendum - i added Queen's attempts at editing aswell at the end. One i was unhappy with due to it featuring an image i already used recently, and the other having absolutely screwed resolution on the K/D bar, i wanted to include em nonetheless. Everyone starts somewhere <3)
