Before moving on, another big congratgulations to our large-land animal victor, Elephant. May this tournament be as successful.
This is the second part of what will be a 5 part series, we'll vote on which of these insects/spiders would be the ultimate deathmatch foe.
Each round will last 24 hours, and voting locations will be linked. This event will span a couple weeks, having 5 total parts. Part 1 is
Large Land Animals. Part 2 will be

Here's our bracket:
One fact about each contender (highest ranked to lowest ranked):
1. Murder Hornets: Literally murder anything it feels like.
2. Funnel-Web Spider: Most venomous spider in the world.
3. Cockroach: Stupid high defense stats...can survive nuclear explosions.
4. Botfly: Precision, precision, precision: kills foes from the inside out.
5. Killer Bee: Poor man's Murder Hornet, but has higher agility stats.
6. Titan Beetle: Bulky with a 4 inch long pincer that can snap a human finger in two.
7. Warrior Wasp: It uses disciplined and calculated attacks dealing the most painful sting in the insect kingdom.
8. Bullet Ant: The strength of an ant with the sting of a wasp.
9. Velvet Ant: Poor man's bullet ant, but like the killer bee, has higher agility stats.
10. Tarantula Hawk: Huge with a powerful sting, but is held back by it's lack of aggression.
11. Yellow Jacket: It's sting is overrated, but good luck finding a competitor with a better motor.
12. Black Widow: Very good attack stat, but it's low defense will leave it vulnerable.
13. Mantis: Truly the biggest dark horse on this list. Low agility will be its downfall, but it can deliver a knockout if the challenger doesn't take it seriously.
14. Scorpion: With overrated attack, the Scorpion boasts mediocre stats all around. No stat too low, though, which helped it make the cut.
15. Atlas Moth: These gentle giants typically aren't dangerous, but with the size of a sparrow and the ability of flight, will its defense and agility help it advance?
16. Mosquito: The weakest competitor in the game, but still somehow kills the most humans.
Hawgbert delivered in part 1; let's continue with Insects and Spiders.....
