Even when she won, she lost. (Or is it the other way around?)

Give it up, boy! Your future's been decided, you just haven't realized it yet!

Dirty pool, indeed!

Thank you! I appreciate the info and look forward to reading it!

When in danger or in doubt, ride a golem, make them rout!

Sauce, please? I was making an historical reference to Alexander the Great's horse.

Bucephalus?
