The '''Arena Match of Strakk vs. Tarix''' was an unresolved fight between the [[Glatorian]] [[Strakk]] and [[Tarix]].

==Dispute==
Strakk and Tarix were paired as the first combatants at the [[Great Tournament]], in the city of [[Atero]]. Both desired to win, so that they could advance to the next round, with the ultimate goal of being the yearly champion.

==Fight==
At the onset of the fight, the Glatorian attacked each other, exchanging blows. During the fight, Strakk, remembering a technique that Tarix had utilized on him in a practice match the day before, used his weapon as a hook, and removed one of Tarix's [[Water Blades|weapons]] from his grip. Strakk took advantage of his opponent's temporary disarmament, and fired a [[Thornax]] at the Water Tribe fighter. Tarix dodged the fruit by executing a backflip, and taunted Strakk, claiming he was still able to fight with a single weapon. The fighters fought for a few more minutes, until they were interrupted by [[Raanu]], who rushed into the arena to warn them of the invading [[Skrall]] army.

==Aftermath==
Both Glatorian willingly let the match end, banding together in order to fend off the invading Skrall. The Skrall forces eventually drove them out of the [[Arena Magna]], leaving the Glatorian unable to continue their fight.
