Gameplay
The two duelers will enter gladiator stadium. In the middle, there will be three face down cards. Both characters choose a card which each have a number. The character who gets the highest number gets to go first.

Over on a table, there will be a few cards (faced down) and the character that had the highest number, gets to go to the table first and pick their first. The card he or she picked will have a character (such as Penguin or Thwomp) and a number, the character on the card will then come charging in and attack the opponent taking away HP. The number of HP taken will be on the card. The best card that one can get is worth 12 points, while the worst is worth 1 point of damage.

Then after the first character is done attacking, the opponent will then go to the cards, grab one and attack the opponent. This will go on, until one of the characters runs out of HP and looses.
