The 22nd episode, written in November 2022. The teams are as follows…

-'''Team 3 (Buddhe)''' : [[WebComic/UberQuest Valmont Barlowe]], [[WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb Dr. Doofenshmirtz]], [[WesternAnimation/{{Megamind}} Megamind]], and [[WesternAnimation/DespicableMe Gru]].

** NeverFoundTheBody: A clue that Shredder picks up on that Tiamat isn’t dead is that there wasn’t a dragon shaped hole in the ice when he fell into the Ring of Treachery.

* PremortemOneLiner: While Pizza the Hutt doesn’t actually kill Dhoulmagus, he does get one in before Dhoulmagus gets beheaded by Jack the Ripper:

--->'''Pizza the Hutt:''' "Yeah… nobody out-pizzas the hutt!"

-'''Team 7 (Frida Bellona)''' : [[WesternAnimation/TheLittleMermaid Ursula]], [[Film/ThorRagnarok Hela]], [[WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender Azula]], and Main/{{Medusa}}.

-'''Team 12 (Eboness the Eternal)''' : [[VideoGame/PrimalRage Vertigo]], Jack the Ripper, [[WesternAnimation/SheRaAndThePrincessesOfPower Hordak]], and [[Film/HorrorOfDracula Dracula]].

* ShooOutTheClowns: Dr. Doofenshmirtz, Gru, and Megamind, three of the most comedic villains and made a [[HeelFaceTurn Heel-Face Turn in their respective series]], are all dead by the end of the second chapter (with the first two dying quickly in Limbo).

--->"Hopefully, it wouldn't be like the Cold War [[WebVideo/HellsingUltimateAbridged Nothing but talking and blue-balling for YEARS.]]"

* TakeThat: When Hordak is introduced, he’s described as looking like his old self “because his redeemed look was just so NO”.

** Grim bites down on Skeletor’s head as he’s overflowing the ogre with his magic, causing the two of them to blow up.

* TeamKiller: Nobody's friends in this one, resulting in a lot of this being attemped. Maleficent’s pulls this with Midnite successfully, though.

* WeAreStrugglingTogether: Most of the “teams” here don’t even bother trying to work together, instead trying to kill each other the moment they meet each other.

--->'We can’t speak of what happened to them. Give you nightmares.'

The twenty-second episode, written in November 2022. The teams are as follows…

-'''Team 10 (General Butch)''' : [[Franchise/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles The Shredder]], [[Literature/TheLordOfTheRings Sauron]], [[VideoGame/{{Suikoden}} Luca Blight]], and [[VideoGame/{{Lunar}} Ghaleon]].

'''Winner''': [[Franchise/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles Shredder]] (General Butch's pick)

-'''Team 6 (Redneckturtle27)''' : [[Manga/{{Hellsing}} The Major]], [[Film/InglouriousBasterds Hans Landa]], [[Film/{{Spaceballs}} Pizza the Hutt]], and The CEO of Racism.

* ALighterShadeOfBlack: Dr. Doofenshmirtz, Megamind, Gru, and Hordak are this since they are the only villains here to have [[HeelFaceTurn reformed.]]

* TheBusCameBack: Cobra Commander, Kefka, Grim, The Shredder (well, the version from Episode 10), and Tiamat all return from previous Arenas. Cell also returns back in his Perfect Form after last being in it in Episode 16.

* CurseCutShort: When Malefor breathes Convexity at Valmont, all he can yell is “OH SHI-” before he gets incinerated.

* DidntSeeThatComing: DIO clearly wasn’t expecting anyone to see his Stand. So when Gargos is to attack it, DIO’s left blindsided and gets sent through several towers. A similar and more subdued version of this happens again with the Shredder also being able to telegraph the Stand.

* FaceDeathWithDignity: When the rubble Bowser’s standing on sinks into the molten lava, all he does is salute with a deadpan expression. All in contrast to Ganon, who sinks with him still struggling.

* {{Hell}}: The location for this Arena, with this version being based on [[Literature/TheDivineComedy Dante’s Inferno]], only a MUCH more forgiving version (in terms of who gets sent to Hell, anyway).
* HoistByHisOwnPetard: Bowser causing a wave of molten gold by melting the gold with his fire breath gets him killed when Shredder causes the rubble he’s standing on to sink into the wave.

* IronicHell: As in the original Dante’s Inferno, each ring punishes each damned soul by the greatest sin they committed in their lifetimes. It's also stated that, for multiple sins, they rotate between Circles.

* NoodleIncident: As Megamind’s running through the Circle of Lust:
--->'''Megamind:''' "Is it Metrocity’s Red Light District?! I promise I’d never return! Not after last summer!"
* OffWithHisHead!: DIO takes off The Major’s head while time has stopped; Gongora ends up destroying it.

* OhCrap: When Cell realizes his Kamehameha was portaled to his side, he yells out [[WebVideo/DragonBallZAbridged "OH, CRAPBASKETS!"]] before he is obliterated.

--->'"We can’t speak of what happened to them. Give you nightmares."'

* CharactersDroppingLikeFlies: The contestants here die at a faster pace than in most Arenas, to the point where it has the least amount of chapters out of any Arena episode at just 5 of them.

* GratuitousGerman: Hans lets out a “[[BigNo NEIN!]]” before his head gets crushed by an incoming Shredder.

--->'''Megamind:''' “Is it Metrocity’s Red Light District?! I promise I’d never return! Not after last summer!”

--->'''Dhoulmagus:''' “Wretched pile of muck… any last words before I make you my first victim?”
--->'''Pizza the Hutt:''' “Yeah… nobody out-pizzas the hutt!”

--->'''"Hopefully, it wouldn't be like the Cold War [[WebVideo/HellsingUltimateAbridged Nothing but talking and blue-balling for YEARS.]]"'''

* TamerAndChaster: This Arena is the only one so far to completely lack a sex scene at all. [[DownplayedTrope THAT BEING SAID,]] this is perhaps the most violent of all Arenas, given everybody's a villain with not a lot of restraint.
