Luke was finding it tough to even lay a finger on Warhammer, the destructive force the armoured demon was unleashing made it impossible to come close to strike.
Luke like his name sake the Blood Raven was extremely clever, an all rounder with a strategy to topple impossible odds, Warhammer was just another of those juggernauts to defeat.
"Okay, Warhammer's style is primitive but fast for a heavy weapon user, none of my magic attacks work, there's no way Warhammer can get away with perfect stats, I've got a theory, lets try it" Luke tried a binding attack which did manage to grab Warhammer.
"Time to unmask you Warhammer" Luke charged at the titan but Warhammer broke free by freezing the binds and shattering them, Warhammer went into a frenzied attack, Luke took some damage from shrapnel.
"Christ, what a temper, now I'm more certain about who Warhammer is" Luke's eyes glowed and he sent out hundreds of Ravens to attack Warhammer.
Warhammer got frustrated by the birds and was starting to panic, steam was coming out from the armour as Warhammer slammed the ground with the hammer turning the entire arena into a new ice age.
Luke had no chance to avoid and took several impalements from ice shards.
"They weren't kidding about the force feedback, that really hurt, Shit!" Luke removes the ice shards and stumbles in front of Warhammer who was ready to finish him off.
"You know, for a murderous juggernaut you have really soft hands" The comment from Luke made Warhammer miss a strike allowing Luke to punch Warhammer, the force knocking them back cracking the black armour and dropping the hammer.
Luke followed by striking Warhammer with the large iron hammer, launching the armoured demon into the arena boundary.
"Damage limit exceeded, the winner by knockout is Blood Raven!" The referee announced.
The dust started to clear where Warhammer landed, among the pieces of broken armour revealed a woman, looking badly hurt and struggling to stay conscious.
"How did you know I was a woman?" she asked Luke.
"Five reasons, 1. When we shook hands it felt too small and soft to be a male hand, 2. It looked like you no showed at the party but that meant you were out of costume, 3. I saw someone in a suit deliberately avoiding Hellcat that must have been you, 4. You were getting desperate to finish me off when I threatened to unmask you and 5. Your armour looks tough but it's an illusion it's actually about as effective as tissue paper so you looked quick with a heavy weapon" Luke was in a different league to Warhammer.
With one failed attempt to stand, Warhammer fell unconscious, medics helped extract her from the VR arena as Luke logged out as well before stumbling from his own injuries.
Giro was next, a few drops of sweat indicating that he wasn't fully comfortable with his match up.
