He loved a challenge. What's more, this was going to be QUITE a challenge.

Zeke KNEW what he was up against, because if the former Auror thing wasn't enough of a tip off, he also knew that the man he was opposing today had squared off against his mum and lived to tell the tale. Of course, he knew he didn't have a snowflakes chance in hell of winning this one, but he was determined to last more than 5 minutes if it could be helped. This would be a tremendous learning opportunity.

With that in mind though, he wasn't going into this completely blindly. He had formed what he thought was a fair idea of Sabel's abilities and strategies, and he had thought to form a few of his own to counter his Defence Against the Dark Arts Professor's.

Obviously taking a defensive stance wasn't going to get him far, because while he had done alright with dodging and deflecting the assaults of his peers, this was a whole new ball game and he wasn't going to leave an impression on the man if he focused on shielding the whole time. Hiding in plain sight would do him no good either, the man would easily be able to reverse any concealment he could produce. No. His plan required him to be on the offensive. Regarding the whole 'offensive' plan, he knew he had to be unpredictable, to stretch himself beyond anything he had done so far. He had to go outside of what he knew. Unfortunately transfiguring his Professor into a fluffy rabbit wasn't going to happen - if the man's skills weren't enough to solidify his resignation to this fact then the fact that he wasn't perfect at transfiguration certainly did. If he was going to have any impact at all, he had to play on his strengths.

Taking to their arena, Zeke went through the motions, paying his respects to his trainer-mentor-Professor with the customary bow, a hint of a smile on his lips. "Don't go easy on me," were his only words before straightening and taking his position ---- casting his first spell without a seconds hesitation. "Obscuro!" he cried out, his wand directed at Sabel - before promptly casting the first phase of his SURPRISE! tactic beneath his breath, his intention firmly set on causing a ring of rosebushes to grow around Sabel, his mind set on trapping him.
