Let's go with the shortsword; we can parry attacks and beat down defenses with our hooves, and attack with our face! But how many strikes can we take until we're out? Can we dupe our armor to increase survivability?
You show your shortsword to the organizer, and she uses her unicorn magic to conjure an illusory copy of the weapon.
You store Star Hairpin, Magic Sword Scabbard, Tempered Simple Breastplate, and Trailblazer's Magic Saddlebags.
With your items secured in a locker, you take the illusory sword from the unicorn.
You get Illusory Shortsword! You have no scabbard, so you equip it instead.
You ask the organizer how many times you can get hit during a fight.
Organizer: "Once in the vitals. Treat it like a real battle if you want a chance at winning. Any other easy ones?"
You ask her if you can get a copy of your armour for defence.
Organizer: "Illusory armour? Hah, not happening, unless you want blunt weapons to actually crush your bones."
A loud voice suddenly echoes from across the hall.
Announcer: "Fillies and gentlecolts, welcome to the Coltswell Arena! Tonight, twelve challengers will be competing for your entertainment - and for the generous prize pool of two hundred bits! Are you ready?!"
Organizer: "You're up sixth, TB, so feel free to join the others over there, and watch the action while you wait for your turn."
