“Malikith, the Witch Lord of the Dreadknights, in his first game back made his presence felt. First move of the game he picked up the Orc runt, Rulle, and threw him out of bounds where the mostly DK fans devastated him. There were uncharacteristically one too many bonehead mistakes in the first half as DK's execution wasn't as crisp. They fumbled the ball but after a timeout called by Coach Nathaniel and some sharp words to his team they came back and got their act together. Draeke connected with Cyric for a touchdown pass to put them up by 1.

The following kickoff, DK wasted a BLITZ! as the ball sailed out of bounds and they were unable to capitalize on it. Surgery Boys turtled up well and foiled Judas's attempts at the ball. A slow but steady grind later, Snaga runs in a TD to tie the game at the half.

Second half began and DK's defensive intensity went up a notch along with Judas's insanity. Together they formed a mighty duo that left the Orcs disgruntled. With an athletic leap only a few could accomplish, Judas, landed on Kastarn's head knocking the Orc Thrower on the ground along with the ball. It took a favorable bounce and Cyric was able to grab it. One quick pass later and Malikith was credited with a TD. Coach Cleawata said after the game, "He (Judas) did a sneaky move."

Surgery Boys recieved the ball one final time and Kastarn tried to go for a long pass but he misfired and it landed in between the two teams. DK tried to grab the ball but it fumbled right into another DK player where he was able to reign it in. An unsuccessful attempt by SB to knock the ballcarrier down followed and DK was able to get the ball out to Malikith who had no one close to him but Kastarn himself. The Orc Thrower not having practiced too many tackling drills was shrugged off twice by Malikith as the Witch Lord scored his second TD of the game.
