Haha you made an oopsie, their—>there.
Really enjoyed the read
I love Vikings and Norse mythology so this will colour my opinion, but I still very much feel like there wasn’t that feel of savage mysticism that always permeates Viking Legends. It’s a Battle Royale between two tribes, and that sounds like a fun concept, except the tribes aren’t openly hostile to those of their own tribe even if only one can be the winner? That part puzzled me out. On a technical side it’s well written.
It can stand on it’s own, 3/5.

By itself, there isn't much to the article - it's two viking tribes that kill each other each night. The issues start when you realize how some claims in the article are so badly addressed that it borders on something that is the equivalent of the information you find in Pokemon games.
How are the Vikings wearing 11th century clothing but it is said that the anomaly is at least a thousand years old? Why does it need to rely on a technicality of 20 years?
Why are these Vikings kept on Earth if all of them should be kept either in Valhalla or Hel? Is the anomaly some sort of divine loophole where they summon dead Vikings to Earth, they fight, and then they're allowed to Valhalla?
This has been happening each night for the past thousand years. The victors never appear again. If say that around 75 people survive each night then 27 375 000 Vikings have come and gone. Not counting skip years. To put it into perspective, that is about a FIFTH of the TOTAL HUMAN POPULATION FROM THE BEGINNING OF TIME.
These are all issues that can be explained in some way but the issue is that they are not, in any way shape or form. You can make assumptions, but the article absolutely lacks something essential to warrant understanding and logic.
