[You enter a room made entirely of thick glass and patterned porcelain. Fluffy pillows and beanbags are scattered across the floor, providing plenty of comfortable places to sit, but they probably don't make up for what's on the ceiling (spears of jagged glass, steaming kettles of some boiling liquid), or the view through the floor (a long, long drop down into a pit, wherein weapons glint, sharp and business-ends pointed up towards you).
A round table stands in the middle of the room. Upon it stands six vases, each one the color of one team, and a scattering of gems in three different colors: obsidian, sapphire, and crystals.]

She might make us play them, whether we want to or not, but if we assume that the other teams will play a sapphire for each other team, there's a chance that five of our other attacks would be negated too.

If we could be sure...

[clenches her fists by her sides.]
We can't be sure about anything the other teams will do.
Re: Discussion
If we have to choose, I'd rather play them against ourselves than risk hurting the other teams, but I can't choose for the others.
