I’m leaning towards the squirt gun on this one. Easier to hit with that before swinging the axe, plus the dogs will attack fast and most likely aim for the arms.

KCtotheSB seems to have gotten the short end of the stick on this one.
If I'm him, I immediately tip the dinghy and start swimming for shore, (small lake).
Sure, you lose the battle axe, but Chiefs4TheWin has snow shoes on and will likely drown.
Go to a shallow area of the lake where you can stand but the dogs can't and proceed to drown them.
If Chiefs4TheWin survives the swim, he's likely drained by the effort and now it's down to hand to hand combat.
I don't see how KCtotheSB could lose with this plan.

Exactly how I would draw it up.

I forgot to incorporate the 3 minute weapon switch special factor. If 3 mins pass while swimming to shore, KCtotheSB has dogs licking his face on shore, while Chiefs4TheWin is at the bottom of the lake with the Battle Axe.

Dogs have him mauled before he lifts a battle axe at two feet. Rainman put two Penguins fans against each other on purpose! Illuminati confirmed.

Man's best friend comes through for Chiefs4thewin, while KCtotheSB disagrees with calling them that. Chiefs4thewin moves to Round 3.
