Where are Blodgharm and Garzvog, or even Orik? They would have been some fun participants.

there should be obstacles catered to each player

pleas say more about the arena, it would effect the battle.
maybe roran could win with nar garsh vag

Lets be honest Jeod would find a map that was stolen by angelina were there was Eldunari and eragon would steal them because saphira would sense them because they’re her parents. Personally I would like to think that Jeod would turn out to be an awesome archer that damages a lot of dragons wings while Roran tries to take Thorn out and succeeds but Murtagh takes him out. then Arya and Eragon team up against Angela and succeed but arya takess Eragon out during the victory. Nasuada Gets her scars From the Trail of long Knives Re-opened and they get out then Arya takes out Joed but Firen gets Taken out

Dietrich u over estimate Murtagh and Thorns power the only reason why they were ever strong is because of the dragons with him

arya, not srya

Roran and Jeod. Of course to start of Murtagh and Thorn would most likely go immediately for the bigger threat Saphira and Eragon since Saphira cant use her dragon magic stuff he could quickly take her out leaving Eragon by himself. Of course Eragon would have an alliance with Roran and Jeod. So it would be of the three of them. Nasuada and Jormundur would be eliminated quickly due to their lack of magic. Then Arya and Firnen would most likely fly off into the woods and use gorilla warfare due to Firnen’s lack of size, strength, and experience. Then Angela and Solembum will use traps and gorilla warfare to take down Murtagh and Thorn. Where then Roran, Jeod, and Eragon would then take to getting the high ground. Then Eragon would then search out with his mind where he would find Arya and Firnen. The trio would then go and fight Arya and Firnen where there will be a fight Arya is then eliminated and Eragon wounded who then takes out Firnen with ease (Please don’t hurt me Arya) due to the fact that Firnen doesn’t have the experience that Eragon does. Then Angela and Solembum Eragon would wound her since she doesn’t have Twinkle Death but Eragon would then be eliminated. While Eragon and Angela were fighting Jeod and Roran took out Solembum (Not escaping injury) Angela is then eliminated due to her injurys being pretty bad due to fighting Eragon and is eliminated.

I think that Eragon and Saphira have the best chance of winning. They’ve been through the most together. While the other teams have met and may have gone through stuff, nothing can match what Eragon and Saphira have to show.

i believe that the dragon and sapphire pairing can win because they have experience as well as a great understanding of each other. they can only be opposed by angela and solembum but then sapphire’s dragon strength, flying and wisdom will prove their winning factor.

Whose ever idea this was is a genius 🙂

In order my Opinion of whose going to win and why
1- Angela and Solomon ( she can make potions out of just about anything, they are both great at sneaking, he can shapeshift, and who knows what they can do together especially when Angela’s around)
2- Arya and Firn’n ( she is one of the best spell caters we know of, he is still pretty small so better for sneak attacks, he also has better scale camouflage, she is an incredibly good warrior and planner)
3- Eragon and Saphira( with the exception of Angela and Solembum probably have the best understanding of eachother, both are great warriors, saphira’s size would help in an open battle, he has really good tracking and woods skills)

Arya, Eragon/Saphira, Solembum, or Roran would win if you ask me.
Eragon and/or Saphira have the most collective experience, and they really only get countered by the Arya/Firnen pairing, the Murtagh/Thorn pairing, or the Angels/Solembum pairing. the rest they could beat.
Arya might win, but i don’t think she’ll do it carrying Firnen’s weight, which she’ll probably have to to some extent because he’s so young. She has the ability to win, but the other riders cause a problem because Firnen hasn’t done any extensive fighting.
Solembum could win because he’s a werecat. I don’t think Angela would go all the way with him, because they might have a tough fight and it Angela goes down, he can still escape. Solembum can basically let the others wear each other out because he’s easily the stealthiest one in the arena.
I think Roran could win simply because he’s just been that good at surviving. He can’t quite take on a dragon or rider, at least not without a lot of difficulty, but if he can manage to avoid those conflicts, he can probably outmatch the others in the arena well enough to win.
This is, of course, assuming nobody teams up, which could turn the tables entirely should anyone do so.

We must consider that foremost it may not be a team of 2 that wins. In addition, those with magical abilities such as Angela, are severely stripped of their advantages. In searching for a victor I ask myself; who, but eragon would have the experience to overcome the most dire of circumstances? That being said, the tragedy of death or dismemberment has been averted, making the situation less dire, taking with it the instinctual desperation to fight to the death. My official vote, though not without doubt, is with Murtagh, he has the most to prove by winning and is almost at par with the prowess of Eragon, whose thoughts may be elsewhere. His dragon Thorn, may survive to the final round, and is surely a match for the smaller dragon of Arya’s and any hand to hand combat that the others might attempt.

I guess Team Roran or Arya or Angela will win… Arya and Firnen are powerful but tricking Roran is hard. However Angela and Solembum are quite unpredictable so I’m pretty sure they’ll win… I mean seriously how could anyone defeat Angela and a Werecat!!!

Make it in Minecraft

arya

I got to put my money on Arya, having been steeped in magic since childhood gives her a magical advantage, and she was better than Eragon at swordplay even after he transformed, her enhanced abilities as an elf dragonrider gives a physical advantage

I recon that ANGELA AND SOLEMBUM will win. who knows the full extent of their powers

It would be interesting if there was a limited amount of food, as that could try the dragons if the Games lasted long enough. Or, if there was only meat, Arya and Eragon might be a bit put off, Eragon more so than Arya. I also suggest that wards be disallowed, as that would give the Riders an enormous advantage over the others.

Another consideration is how far the “no flying” rule extends. If there was sturdy terrain, like the ruins of Vroengard, would hopping and gliding around rooftops be permitted, such as Saphira and Thorn’s battle in Dras-Leona? Saphira has already shown herself to be an exceptionally cunning fighter in that type of situation.

The biggest problem the non-Riders are going to have is taking down the dragons. Not only are they dragons, but if they or their Riders are injured, the other could fly into an unnatural rage and probably take out whoever caused it. One thing that could help balance this is an extensive cave system, or something similar: a structure that the dragons cannot enter, or easily destroy. That would stop Saphira and the others from simply grabbing the puny two-legs and shaking them like rats. It also offers better protection against fire than forests or buildings.

I doubt that the battles between dragons will be any less ferocious than you would expect, although the victor would come down to whether the fight took place in the air or on the ground, “air” meaning the kind of hopping and gliding I discussed earlier. Either way, Saphira has a good chance at winning, as she has more experience and (it seems) native skill. However, if Thorn’s growth rate is still accelerated, he has a better chance if he can close with Saphira on the ground and overpower her. Firnen, I’m afraid, lacks both the size and the experience to win in a fair fight, at least directly. If he was able, for example, to crash into Thorn and Saphira when they were grappling each other, he could cause them to hit the ground and severely injure themselves. One very important factor in this is the size of the arena. How can you make an arena large enough for three dragons but small enough so that the two-legs can find each other instead of wandering about in the woods? It will most likely be closer to the smaller limit, so there is little choice for the dragons but straight conflict. Firnen might be able to hide himself better than the other two, because of his coloration and small size, but this depends on the terrain. It would be very interesting for there to be a large area of water in the arena. Saphira is the only dragon we know to have gone swimming, although Firnen experienced it through her memories. I have no idea what aquatic combat would look like, but underwater battles could be very similar to aerial ones; slower, and without as much danger of hitting the ground, but without fire and with the added complication of having to hold your breath. In that, Thorn might have the advantage, if the Eldunari can help the dragons in the same way the Eldunari-like structure helps the Nidwahl, as his Eldunari is the largest.

The only chance the human pairs would have is to team up to dispatch the dragons, ideally after one of them has bested the others and is recovering. Otherwise, the sheer strength of the dragon and their Rider would likely be too much, at least for everyone except Angela. Whether Nasuada or Roran would come out on top depends solely on what the stakes are. Whoever it means more to would find a way to win. If the stakes are even, I would say Roran would win a fair fight. Jeod is not much of a fighter, but Jormundur is beginning to age, and Nasuada’s combat skills seem limited to daggers and bows. However, Nasuada and Jormundur will likely avoid a straight fight, and instead aim to get rid of Roran with a different tactic, such as a knife in the back. One thing that might tip the scales is if Jeod has any knowledge about the arena, such as secret passageways. Roran would certainly put any knowledge to good use. His team is most likely to win if they catch the other teams by surprise, which his plans often do. Nasuada’s plans tend to be more conventional, although her own combat style, as noted, is less straightforward than Roran’s. Her team is more likely to win by conventional tactics, which to my mind, means her victory is less likely than Roran’s, as there are not many conventional tactics for two humans taking on a dragon and a Rider, let alone multiple pairs.

Eragon has a good chance of beating the others in swordplay, although with Arya and Murtagh it is not at all certain. (And of course, little is certain with Angela.) This depends on how well he understands Arya and Murtagh at the time of the games. His sense of morality might be a hindrance in this case, depending on the stakes involved. Saphira is probably the bigger threat, as she is not only the most experienced dragon, but has shown herself to be a more cunning fighter than Thorn, able to manipulate him in combat, as she did during the battle of Dras-Leona. Her bloodlust wouldn’t hurt either. However, Eragon is at a slight disadvantage magically. Although he likely absorbed a lot from the Eldunari, he has had the least training of the three Riders. How much this affects him depends on what the magical restrictions are. He has shown himself to be rather proficient in wordless magic, for example, but he simply cannot have the same number of spells and counterspells that Arya probably has in reserve, nor could he defeat her or Murtagh in a mental battle; they both have far more control over their mind than he does. He might also underestimate Roran, which could easily be his last mistake.

Murtagh is certainly a competent magician, and an excellent swordfighter. However, neither of these can guarantee him victory over Arya or Eragon. The thing that might do that is Galbatorix’s training. Galbatorix studied magic for nearly a hundred years, and evidently found some very old sources to help with that, such as the tablet with the Name. If he taught some of what he discovered to Murtagh, Murtagh could have spells that even Arya has never seen or heard of, which could give him enough of an edge to win, particularly as Thorn’s much larger size would enable him to distract Firnen, and by extension Arya. This actually might not be as helpful against Eragon, as he isn’t familiar with as many spells to begin with. Eragon would simply have to rely on the same quick thinking he always does – which has had varying success. Murtagh’s real weakness may be Nasuada. Depending on how their relationship stands, he might be more hesitant to attack her. Nasuada, as the better strategist, would have less trouble, potentially putting Murtagh at a disadvantage. (Arya and Eragon have always sparred as part of their relationship, so this would not be any more of a factor for them in the arena than it was in their swordplay.) We haven’t seen as much of Murtagh and Thorn’s fighting style as we have Eragon and Saphira’s. We know that Saphira is generally more cunning than Thorn, but Murtagh is more ruthless, and sometimes more agressive, than Eragon. It will be interesting to see what they have learned, if anything, from their time in the north, and how they fight now that they are free of Galbatorix’s control.

Arya’s weakness, if any, is likely to be her overconfidence, and Firnen’s small size and inexperience. However, she is the most conventionally skilled with magic, and has had the most practice with swords, bows, and other weaponry as well as woodcraft. She can be merciless when she needs to be, and if you let your guard down within 100 meters of her, you could be making a dreadful mistake. There is no easy way to defeat her. Nasuada’s only chance, for example, would be to hope that Murtagh or Eragon defeats her first, as either one of them would be easier to manipulate into a trap. Of course, Arya might well realize this, and make a point of hunting down them humans while Firnen hides and Saphira and Thorn battle. The only one Arya might be truly afraid of is Angela.

Of course, I’ve saved Angela for last. It’s easy to say she’ll win it all, but in actuality, it would be a very hard-fought victory. Assuming her time-and-entropy-reversing powers are off-limits, along with any particularly special magic items, such as the sunset-colored dagger, we haven’t technically seen Angela do any powerful magic. We also know that some of her magic is an entirely different brand from the kind we are used to seeing: at the end of “Eragon,” that’s her excuse as to why she can’t remove Eragon’s scar – her powers come from poultices and plants. This knowledge, combined with several of her other tricks – particularly the ones that let her sneak around anywhere she wants and find out anything she wants – could let her take down all of her opponents one by one – assuming she doesn’t get caught. I don’t believe she ever attacked anyone directly using magic in the books, and there were several occasions when it would have been a very good idea. She also says that she is not powerful enough to face Galbatorix, all of which leads me to believe that her abilities are more suited to sabotage – and especially poison – more than open combat. Angela knows this, and would play to her strengths. And we haven’t even discussed Solembum. The other competitors would likely be wary of this pair, which would also work in their favor. I envision Angela and Solembum sneaking around, poisoning food and water, and perhaps slipping in some assassinations – but only if the time was right. I doubt they could stand up to a dragon, so they would be smart to let the Riders thin their ranks a little before making their move.

An additional note: a single victor is possible, but it is very unlikely that victor will be a dragon. If someone strikes down a Rider, they won’t live very long, but the rampaging dragon doesn’t, either: they don’t reason; they just run to destroy anything nearby, and this makes them vulnerable. That’s why Glaedr was so easily defeated after Oromis’ death, among other factors. Unless one of the teams is planning on the dragon’s rampage – and any one of the non-Rider teams might – it might be safer to take out the dragon first. Rampaging Riders are still terrifying, but are slightly easier to deal with.

I believe the most important factor is the stakes. Until we know what each pair is playing for, there is no way of telling how far they will be willing to go to win. I would like to see each pair or person playing for a different goal: perhaps a win for Roran means a boon for Carvahall, or his family. Perhaps Eragon and Arya made a bet: if he is victor, she abdicates her throne and comes to join him. Perhaps Murtagh wishes to gain the respect or trust of the others. Maybe Angela needs a new skein of yarn. However, if the stakes were closer to the spirit of the original Hunger Games, every contestant would fight far more fiercely, making for more dramatic conflict. Either way, I’m eager to see what happens next!

I think they would try to eliminate the dragons first, because obviously they’re a huge threat. But it won’t be so easy to acomplish though.
Angela will probably use some kind of trick to hide herself, and attack others when they least expect an attack.
Of the dragons, I think they’ll target Thorn first. The reason for that is because he is a mystery to them, and no one likes to fight someone they don’t know anything of, so it’s best to finish him off in the beginning of the game.
The humans will either be the first to drop out, or the last. They aren’t as strong or fast as the elves/dragons, so they’ll get worn out easily. But their size counts in their favour, because they’ll be able to quickly manouver between tight spaces, and won’t be as noticable as the dragons.
In the end I think either Eragon and Saphira, or Angela and Solembum will win. Eragon and Saphira have been through much worse together, and they work really well as a team. But the same goes for Angela and Solembum. Plus Angela may have a few tricks up her sleeve.

i think that Angela and solembum will win because she always has a dirty way to fight

i think eragon and saphira will be victorious cause they know each other pretty well

I think that Eragon would be one of the first people to get out, not because of his lack of skill, but his personality. Saphira might not give up so easily, but I feel that Fírnen and Thorn would take her out realizing that she is a big threat. I think that Arya would then beat Murtagh, but Thorn would be able to take out Firnen because of his lack of experience, and significant lack of size. Because of this, Arya would be distracted because of her sincere affection for her dragon, and soon both of them would lose. Murtagh and Thorn would be able to leave the battle, but Angela, always knowing where to be, would appear with Solembum and take them both out.

Meanwhile, Nasuada’s team would run into Roran’s, and they would team up, realizing that it would be foolish to try and win the battle between the magician’s on their own. They would sleep for the night, since they could not find Angela or Solembum, and would continue their pursuit in the morning.

Angela would of course be brewing odd potions and enchanting the grass around their camp to do odd things, and would attack during the night. The grass would keep them stuck to the ground while the potion, kind of like a sleeping bomb would make them sleep. They would struggle all the while, but soon would go unconscious because of it. While Angela and Solembum were coming down, Roran would have an intense dream about his daughter crying when watching the games, and he would suddenly have the power to overcome both the potion and the grass, his actions would be so sudden that he would be able to take out the herbalist in one blow, while Solembum would jump on him and attack him in a fit of anger. Meanwhile, the other three would get out, and Jeod would run to help him. Jörmundur, trying to hit Roran, would accidentally hit Solembum, and then Roran would have everything he needs to win from there. He would go into a crazy battle thinking of his daughter and wife all along and take out Nasuada’s whole team. However, in the process, Roran would take some serious injuries and go unconcious. Thus, Jeod and Roran(if being unconscious counts) would be the victors.
