The guards killed him I guess, for that matter why the hate of defensive guys ;)

There is a difference between being defensive and just standing around doing nothing. Just make sure your gladiator isn't inactive for too long and they won't get angry, or make sure you can weather the storm.

Ya the problem i had was my glad actually was attacking every now and then, but all attacks where blocked or he kicked me out of range.... Those failed attacks don't help you with the crowd at all i guess.

Exactly what danj said it would be a tad overpowered if you could tank for no loss in stamina and having 10 inch thick plates all around your body AND having 95+ stam. :\ Even a good rage glad has his losses to war's tanking with an even odd round strat. or something..... (Note i said good not great-best)
