Next we're treated to a few snippets of Arthur and Orm battling one another, diving up above their initial battle gladiatorial battle chamber and basically fighting all over the place.

The effects are unfortunately pretty rough here: the visual fidelity is blurry (making it difficult to get a decent screenshot, funnily enough) and the character movement is often awkwardly animated, proving somewhat reminiscent of Justice League's iffy-yet-expensive effects.

Sure, things can be tightened up by December, but history has proven that sort of optimism to usually be pretty misplaced. It doesn't mean this fight won't be fun, but don't go in expecting a battle that's entirely coherent either.
