'''Desperate Struggle''' is Subieko's entry in Ragefest One. It is a hack of ''Blazing Sword''.

This chapter is responsible for Arenas being banned in later Ragefest contests due to its requirement of heavy Arena abuse to attain the stats necessary to kill the boss. This is not the only criticism the chapter has received: There are many long, winding pathways requiring dozen of turns to navigate, the shops and village are on the outer corners of the map, and most of the enemies never move unless a player unit is in range, resulting in slow gameplay.

== Walkthrough ==
[[File:DesperateMap.png|240px|thumb|left|Map size should be cut by three]]
The only two enemies on the entire map to move on their own are the Warriors, who have Door Keys, however they will not open the door if they have a unit they can attack. Positioning the Shaman and Archer in front of the door lures them into attacking. Once they're taken out, every single enemy can be lured to their deaths because not one of them moves if they have nothing to attack. The Ballistae can be baited by sitting on the pillars. The two chests that can't be opened with keys are traps; the upper chest spawns two Bishops and two Generals around it and disables the music, and the other unopenable chest teleports the unit sitting there outside the castle. There is also a house near the shops that teleports the unit standing there to the start of the map. The village at the top of the map has an Earth Seal, and there are four letters in the grass that spell out the word "KILL". Stand on each letter to recieve a Luna, Mani Katti, Brave Lance, and Brave Bow.

This leaves only Nergal to deal with. Unfortunately, the only known way to kill him is to promote the Shaman to a Druid, max out his level at the Arena (the only chest you can open has 5,000 gold) and send him in with Luna and a buff from Nini's Grace. This will take awhile. Once Nergal is gone, Seize the throne.

		+	While the hack was not a huge hit with audiences, it certainly left an impact on Marc. This submission is the sole reason Marc has banned arena usage in future Ragefests. Ironically, this submission is beatable without the need to grind, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7BRmwQUKBk a fact which was not made apparent until nearly 7 years later.]
