Arena's Functionality

Accuracy should have a 10% Minimum though. Other than that I like the system. Only other thing I'd add is maybe universal skills based on each stance but other than that anything else is just adding complexity for the sake of it. Equipment will not count to the cap right?

I was just thinking the same thing when writing my mock up pie.

So here is what I found for a solution that I personally like, but you might hate...

Size DOES matter, in the respect that it dictates your "class". Each class gets a particular stat bonus that DOES NOT count toward your maximum points. for instance...

Size 1: "you are small and agile. Because of this, enemies have a hard time hitting you, and you are well trained! But keep in mind, that there are penalties to being this tiny..." Permanent +3 speed, +2 skill, -2 HP
Size 2: "You stand a little under average, but being slightly shorter than most Gladiators lets you hit below the belt!" +1 attack, +2 skill, +2 accuracy, -1 Hp, -1 defense
Size 3: "You are average size for a gladiator. This isn't always a bad thing though..." +1 skill, +1 Hp, +1 attack
Size 4: "You are a little more bulky than your average gladiator. Size does have it's weaknesses though." +2 Hp, +2 Defense, +1 Attack, -1 accuracy, -1 speed.
Size 5: "Most Gladiators are eclipsed by your shadow. You are as big as they come! Again though, size can be a weakness." +3 Hp, +3 Defense, -3 speed

This will help fix the problem you were talking about pie. You can choose an appropriate weight class for your character (like Joan is either a 1 or 2, Evergreen is either a 4 or 5, Sting is either a 3 or 4, crawdad is either a 4 or 5, Bok is either a 4 or 5, Gilbert is either a 1 or 2, and Volug is either a 2 or 3.)

I'll say Crawdad is size 4. Big, but there's a few that are even bigger.

This doesn't count, right? Because I didn't get to place my own stats and apply a tactic.

Just curious how long did the calculations for the battle take?

I would prefer text throughout the battle. You could just take the results of the match and write it out with the same comedy as before. It would take a lot of time for you to do all of that, though, so I guess we could help write the text.
