This story is quite gray.
Draupadi once badly insulted Karna, making her seem unworthy of being a heroine.
The Kauravas, although evil, never played by the rules or used dirty tricks.
The Pandavas, although they seemed to be the heroes, their fighting tactics were well-planned (but many people said they were dirty tricks), such as:
1) While Bheem and Duryodhi were dueling with their clubs, Bheem broke the rules, as advised by Krishna, which was to attack below the belt…
2) He advised Arjuna to shoot Karna while his chariot was in the mud (even though the rule said that if the chariot fell into the mud, he was not allowed to shoot again).
3) Indra came down to help by transforming into a Brahmin and asking Karna to remove his armor and sacred earrings, which had the power of invulnerability, reducing Karna’s abilities by half.
