Advice:

Theo,

If you get chosen, which hopefully you don’t, do NOT go for your best weapon. If you choose it, people will know what your best at and have an advantage when facing you in the arena. You’re great at basically all light ranged weapons, so making a substitute won’t be bad. Ask for a blowgun and darts, and when the countdown ends I want you to immediately duck or dodge out of the way just in case the Peacekeeper tries to shoot you really quickly. Once the Peacekeeper fires ammunition, I want you to immediately hit him with a dart. After about 10 seconds, stall your darts and be ready to dodge the shot gun’s bullet. When you start to have only a few darts, I want you to wait when the Peacekeeper fires his shotgun, which you should be prepared for and take 2 – 5 seconds to get closer to the Peacekeeper so you have a clear shot. If you run out of ammunition, then the other two must be extremely lazy and won’t attack him. Run for your life if you run out of darts. :3

Reba,

Since a dagger won’t be the best help ever, take your bow. Although you’re good with a dagger, you’d be better off without it even if you were better with a dagger compared to a bow. Be ready to dodge the Peacekeeper’s first attack once the countdown start, and right away after his attack load a bow and fire. When it comes to a bow, reloading arrows into its sling isn’t very quick. Take a few seconds to fire your shot, if you miss keep on the move to dodge the Peacekeeper’s attack. Then repeat the process until you’ve shot him or you run out of arrows, then run like crazy and let the other tributes in the glass box with you take a hit at the Peacekeeper.

Savannah,

Since your only good weapon is wire, substituting that weapon may lead to your death. Before you are sent into the glass box, talk with the other tributes that were sent into the box with you to help you defeat the Peacekeeper. As usual, when the countdown ends wait for the Peacekeeper to fire and be ready to avoid any attack. Once you feel like you could run up to him in under 15 seconds, run up to him and start suffocating the Peacekeeper with a wire. While this is happening, have the strongest tribute knock the shotgun out of the Peacekeeper’s hands while the other tribute can attack the Peacekeeper with you, ranged weapon or melee weapon equipped. The tribute who knocked the shot gun out of the tributes hand will take the shotgun. If the Peacekeeper hasn’t ran out of breath by the time, toss him to the ground, he will be stunned. The tribute with the shotgun will fire the bullet and you guys will win. If the tribute who was supposed to knock the shotgun away dies, have the other tribute do it instead.

Delilah,

I doubt you will be allowed to chuck explosives at the Peacekeeper, but if you are allowed to it’s basically like a pass to victory. If you can’t, just take a dagger since that would be your second choice. When the countdown ends, be ready to dodge his shotgun. Keep on the move and keep on dodging his ammunition until you’re at a very close distance from him. If you can make it to the Peacekeeper and stab him before he can reload and fire, go for it and don’t hold back. DON’T be risky, you get tired easily so use the first 10 seconds for him to reload with a short pace and the last 5 seconds with an extremely fast pace. You’re supreme with short distanced things, but going for a long time isn’t your thing. Aim for the neck or head, those are very easy to hit spots and very lethal spots too.

And to the mentor of Kristina,

Sorry the alliance got stalled a bit. I’ll start recruiting tributes ASAP, unless if you’re not interested anymore. :(
