Almost sure there are some insects here that can take it

Yeah, i'll try to match it up with one of those when making the bracket (which i need to figure out how to do)

You can use this or choose on your on (If you choose on your on the Praing mantis probably can take it)

I think the red-headed centipede and tarantula-hawk wasp might also have a shot

I probably don't know about the centipede, and it's hard to bite something that comes from above (The praying mantis can at least catch her and attack with his arms/blades)

True, i kind of assume that the hornet would have a hard time stinging it though due to it's exoskeleton and larger size

I hadn't thought about the exoskeleton, but the wasp could also just mount it and attack with its mouth... but let's leave that speech for the fights

I think i might have the first round be tarantula hawk vs murder hornet, they're both kings of sting afterall

Nah do it randomly. It would be better and would feel unbiased

Alright i guess
still it would be pretty cool if the kings of sting fought
