So that's a no to the impartial arena mediators investigating the situation?

On a separate note, anyone feel my bitch slapping Scion's character was wrong? I understand he expected me to listen to him explain himself, but he did insult the Queen and her honor. From a character perspective it was inline with the character.

So the question becomes, if we have defined our characters behavioral traits, should we step away from them, even if they do not make sense in order to foster dialogue between characters?

@Skallagrim

As long as he has a realistic chance to dodge, it's no issue, I think your character's behaviour should be important.

Well, it seems like you have enough on your plate right now in the tournament. I'll just have Saanga do a humorous epic fail once I get home. I doubt I could change his throw just because of a misunderstanding of the situation.

@ImportantNobody

Do whatever man, considering the battlefield we're fighting in I think Saanga should have some options to avoid an attack on landing.

Alright, why don't you ask the Arena community to chime in on the situation, if I don't have a point about the power imbalance then kick me out, doesn't bother me.

Its pretty big. Boxers are fairly predictable. Unless they fight dirty, it's all hands. No kicks, no takedowns.

MMA? Martial arts, kicks, knees, elbows, ground game. If you can keep them up, you havw a shot, even if they are strikers with the hands.

@Rilla

Yeah in a ring I suppose you're right, but I'd still give myself a decent chance against all that rolling and falling on the floor if I can just shank the hell out of them, so that tells you something about knife vs fists.

Alphonse is a good character but he has limits when facing tech-based fighters it seems.

@Skallagrim

Mhmm, definitely.

I told a lie about not having a decent character to fight him though, I remembered I have two vampire swordsmen with magical abilities which should be a relatively fair match for Alphonse (it's worth baring in mind that this won't be the best practice for fighting a character like Skallagrim though, who seems to be more focused on swordplay as a distraction while he builds up a devastating ability, where-as my Vampires use magic as an aid to killing someone with their blades.)

@Rilla Would you rather fight Vanarus Sallein, the Patriach of my Vampire line, who uses a Rapier, or Adrian Valdovsk, one of Vanarus' progeny who uses a short sword and a knife? Provided you actually want to fight me, I won't cry -too- much if you'd prefer to fight someone else.

MMA is a fairly minor disadvantage in comparison to a bladed weapon IMO.

<Snipped quote by MelonHead>

Considering I've repeatedly stated that the map changes each round and indicated, very clearly, you could use all of your weapons in a match.

I assumed the intel would affect the weapons you started the match with. It seemed a sensible question to ask given that I was letting you have your entire arsenal.

@Innue

Dude, I've already explained that I misunderstood what you were saying back then, are you now saying I'm lying about that mistake to cover up the mistake of not bringing a weapons crate into the current fight or something? Unless you want to air drop it into the current fight in a random location or something I can't utilize it.

A normal knife, maybe. Not a damn daemon one. XD lol

@Rilla

Yeah fair point, I have no idea why you accepted this fight, your character was at a serious disadvantage.

Good learning experience I guess.

Arena Chat Thread

The Clockwork Man's gun is pretty limited to be more balanced, but I understand why you wouldn't want to fight a gun with a swordsman regardless.

I actually don't have any good matches for Alphonse really, at least none that spring immediately to mind.

Unless you want to try that open challenge idea so I can use Daeh Nolem and turn him into a 2d version of himself and force him to fight like its an arcade game.
