The second paragraph varies based on which team is Currently in the Lead.

LeadSecond Paragraph
1 - The Tigers of the Wakeful EyeThe Armoured Veteran is all swagger [...] Her eyes burn. Her armour gleams. Her claws flex in anticipation of the fights to come. Few can bear to meet her gaze for long. If nobody can overcome their fear, then she will surely win.
2 - The Eagle ClanThe Striking Protector fends off the crowd's roses [...] with an easy smile. [...] Every so often she will hop up and down, slapping her shoulders and thighs to get the blood pumping. If her ease in her own skin is any indication, she will be tough to beat.
4 - The Grand SanatoriaThe Sanatoria's Whispering Duellist sharpens [...] knives, long black blades that shimmer like oil slicks. She pays nobody else any attention: her focus is entirely [...] inwards. Against such focus - and such wicked daggers - there will be no room for mistakes.
