We’re about to witness the riastrad, huh? Considering the format of the tournament, where the winners proceed to the next round, I wonder how this’ll be one-upped.

I assume the matches will basically be a fight of attrition between whoever has the most trump cards, assuming they don’t win by using their already revealed abilities the most cleverly.

it would be really funny if after this Cu attempts a comeback but Ra just buries him.
I know it probably won't happen since everything seems set up for Cu to pull a win out of his ass, but a guy can dream.

Ra's been pretty formidable so far, but seeing Cu tank these hits and keep getting up at least makes it feel like he's still in the fight, so I can't wait to see how he turns the tides. It's a bit scuffed having one demigod facing off against the literal sun, but that'll make it even funnier when the guy wielding a felled tree somehow manages to achieve a victory.

Morrigan aka the Morrigan is a title, she is a triple goddess aka three goddessess, usually Macha, Morrigan, and Badb, though other goddesses were named.

Her beef with Cu starts with him not willing to go down on her, which is out of character for him since literally the reason Medb managed to invade Ulster the kingdom was Cu served was him busy nailing some gal. Cu beat her up, when she transformed into different animals. She tricked him into healing her, then helped some of Medb's mages curse him. She did so by making him break his geass. A geass in Celtic Mythology is a vow which the subject of the oath must always do. Cu's geass is to never eat dog meat, and to never refuse a meal. He got hit with dog meat is the only meal. Cu and most Celtic Heroes are dog lovers. So he ate the dog meat since ancient laws of hospitality makes refusing the meal a double offense.

Since he broke the Geass he was weaken, he fought a bunch of guys, brung his dying body to a rock and tied himself to it, a champion of Medb Lugaid went near Cu's dead body which then killed Lugaid, for three days due to fear nobody went near his body. Morrigan in Raven form landed on his shoulder which informs people he died.

I am curious what they are doing with Gae Bolg here, Gae Bolg while famous is overrated asf, Cu only used it in duels never battles since it always get stuck inside a person.

I really thought they were going to do something with Cu being the child of a sun and light god. Like being immune or highly resistant to Ra’s technique or have Cu feel some catharsis in defeating a Sun &Light god (similar to his bio father)

Cu is a child of a Sun god soooo……too bad that didn’t get incorporated in this fight.
