Hmmm... I'll go with Ravenclaw and co.'s fight against the bloodclan cats in "A Clan In Need". That's mostly because I can't remember most other fights, though.
Heck yes! This series has finally made it to Trope Overdosed!
"Oh great! Let's pile up all the useless cats and hope a tree falls on them!"Considering how many books there are, I'm surprised that it wasn't overdosed sooner.
For me, probably the one in Forest of Secrets when ThunderClan drives out Tigerclaw/star and his cronies.
Yeah, that was pretty cool.
Come to think of it, what do you guys think of Ashfur's betrayal? Personally, I thought that it was pretty lame. Yes, Ashfur had it pretty rough, what with his parents dying when he was young and his love rejecting him, but that doesn't give him the right to take it out on the kits! When Love Makes You Evil, you're still evil.

I think he's kind of awesome. I mean he was brutally ditched by Squirrelflight for some other cat who looked deeply suspicious to him. It doesn't change his actions, but that's one heck of a Freudian Excuse.
Also, I don't think Squirrelflight was right to reveal the trio's parentage. It clearly drove a wedge between them, and I'm sure she could have thought up another way to get out of there.
Eh, they would have found out some point, anyway. Those kinds of things never stay secret.
That's because they live in the land of endless secret forbidden love. Seriously, it happens so often there are probably five more for every one the readers discover.
Probably. Hey, at least it stops clans from being super-inbred!
Out of all warrior names, I think the best is Umadpelt.
"Oh great! Let's pile up all the useless cats and hope a tree falls on them!"Personally, I like Flightfoot, but I use it as my username in some places so I'm biased.
EDIT: Apparently this forum wasn't in the Literature section before. I just got a PM welcoming me to the Literature sub-forums when I posted.

I sent a PM to the herald and asked why, and got a reply explaining that s/he had only just started as a herald, so everyone is going to get the PM.
Now, my favourite canon character names would be:
- Jayfeather
- Shredtail
- Crowfrost
- Rainstorm
- Sunfall
- Rainflower
- Sparrowfeather
- Ivypool
- Lionblaze
- Skywatcher
There are more, but I can't think of them at the moment.
"Oh great! Let's pile up all the useless cats and hope a tree falls on them!"Who would actually want their name to be Shredtail? I wouldn't want the first thing that someone knows about me to be that I have a shredded tail.
My favorite is, of course, Loudbelly.
I bet that he belches a lot.
In my mind, Shredtail's name means that he shreds tails.
I made a Choose Your Own Adventure based on Warriors. It contains a few Warriors Official Forum injokes like Umadpelt and Lionblaze/Purdy.
"Oh great! Let's pile up all the useless cats and hope a tree falls on them!"Suddenly the name Shredtail becomes a lot more awesome.
Doing the CYOA now.
edit: Dangit I got eaten by Mapleshade.

Interesting CYOA! I became the Mario Kart champion.
I played it again. This time, I threw a cat at a meteor.
Played it a third time (man, that thing is addicting) Lionblaze killed me.
Mapleshade ate me.

Thanks guys. It took me five hours to make.
"Oh great! Let's pile up all the useless cats and hope a tree falls on them!"I'm glad that you took the time to make it - I'll probably go through it a few more times, it's so fun!
This time I fought pirates with Redtail. At least it was sort of a happy ending!
Collided with a moose on the Jaymobile.
Became leader of WindClan. Best ending yet.

I was playing through the endings of Lightflame's CYOA, and noticed that in one of them both Dovewing/Bumblestripe and Ivypool/Bumblestripe are brought up. Dovewing/Bumblestripe is canon, but what prompted Ivypool/Bumblestripe?
There are a lot of Ivypool/Bumblestripe shippers on the Warriors Official Forum. The fact that there's a Redtail sequence is because one of my friends there is a massive Redtail fan.
There's also an active Jaydeath movement, which bothers me a lot.
One more thing. My personal theory is that Daisy is the daughter of one of Beetlenose's kits, who could have been taken away by a twoleg (Rock reveals in Cats of the Clans that twolegs sometimes take RiverClan cats to be their kittypets). That would mean that Beetlenose is the great-grandfather of Berrynose.
"Oh great! Let's pile up all the useless cats and hope a tree falls on them!"
So, what's everybody's favourite fight?
Personally, I adore Ivypool's rematch with Antpelt in The Forgotten Warrior because of Ivypool's Heroic Resolve.
