Nominating: Samutth a Ranajira - Nyadir vs. Acyutani
Nominating: Teric vs Godhand: Champions
Sure, it's cheesy to nominate one of my own battles, but I submit for your consideration that it stands as the only completed Grandmaster, Dajas Pagoda battle in recent memory. That and we didn't do half-bad either.
And by half-bad I mean ALL awesome.
Completed Battle Record: 11-1-0
Highest Scores:
The Company: Stomping Grounds (81)
A Winter Long Ago... (80)
Mortal Intervention (79)
On that note, I'm seconding Task's nomination for Samutth a Ranajira. It was an enjoyable battle, and I got to use some fun improvisations as well as further flesh out the insanity aspect of my character. Of course, I always stand by the quality of my writing. Witchblade was pretty good, too.

Low Stretches The Hand (feat. Gum)
Thirding Samutth a Ranajira.
I really liked Samutth a Ranajira, though there was a lot of repeating (really irritating). The descriptoins were amazing, and it didn't have that same heroic/goth style like many writers take on. I have tried to write like Ebivoulya recently, to no avail...but I believe he is a writer to aspire to be like.

I have to second Pat even though it probably makes me look like an asshole since I started that bloody mess and it hasn't been judged yet.
"Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity."
William Butler Yeats - The Second Coming
