I agree with Nerkal. The balancing of this game is just ridiculous. I understand the whole random damage concept, but hitting someone with a sharp object should never do 0 damage, especially when the computer never hits for 0 damage. Also, a kick should be as reliable for the player as it is for the computer. Also it would help if you could choose what moves you had for Gladiator mode, i.e. being given a set amount of gold to optimize the character, instead of having to guess what move you're going to pull next. The amount of luck you need to get anywhere in Gladiator mode pushes this game from challenging to just plain frustrating.
