YB! Returns! First Playtest Fight Thread!

[Rathan]

[sblock=ooc] Yup... that's how it was and how it's going to continue being I like that.... plus without dirty trick other than in item form... there's less importance on who goes first.... the less rules to me the better atm [/sblock]

The phoenix devours the forest; protects against the onslaught of the elements!

Paros Mal, uncertain about his opponent's move, utters a short word as he describes a half-circle with his spear. The spear heats up and, without consuming the attached banner, leaves a short-lived trail of fire that Paros Mal hopes will catch Nikosin in his descend.

 

[Rathan]

The judge flutters finger through what appears to be an invisible beard as he thinks and billows an answer to the combatants moves after a long pause for thought....

The Honored One poses a nice defense... it's a shame it is not a defense for his opponents action however.... Round again to Paros Mal

Round Paros Mal; 2 Flags Paros Mal; 1 Flag Nautral

 

[Knight Otu]

The spider demolishes the waterfall; negates the foray of the sickle!​

Feeling victory within his grasp, Paros Mal makes the classic tactical blunder of underestimating his opponent as he waits for Nikosin's assault like a spider in its web, hoping to skewer Nikosin as he attacks.

 

[Phoenix8008]

The hammer kicks the pillars; silences the blood of the abomination!​

Nikosin moves in and goes on the offensive, hammering at the legs of Paros Mal with a series of kicks that should silence his bloodlust and give Nikosin a chance to make a comeback in this fight...

OOC: Not sure if having a style grants immunity still or not, but if so Paros just tried using Nikosin's Spider style against him...

 

[Rathan]

The judge looks on as Nikosin kicks the crap out of Paros Mal for using his spider style....

Foolish Defiler you should know better than to use an Honored Ones own style against him.... he is after-all immune to his own spider style.... thus.... Round to Nikosin!"

Round Nikosin... 1 One Flag Paros Mal; 2 Flags Neutral

[sblock=ooc] Yes indeed you are immune to your own spider style just as Paros Mal is immune to his Volcano location.... both signature styles and locations a player owns are both worth an extra flag if you win a round with them AND they grant you immunity to moves used against you by other players.[/sblock]

 

[Phoenix8008]

The staff rides atop the marsh; fends off the chaos of the horn!​

Nikosin does the unexpected by leaping up onto the out-thrust spear of his opponent for a moment while fending off his attacks. Leaping backwards, he does a back-flip and lands ready for the next attack.

 

[Knight Otu]

(Hence the "classic tactical blunder". )

The cherry blossom painfully storms the swamp; fends off the push of the tree!​

Paros Mal tries to violently yank away his spear as Nikosin lands on it, and raising it to block any incoming attacks before launching into a series of vicious jabs at the defiant honorling.

 

[Rathan]

The judge ponders the moves before him with a lengthy pause before speaking...

Marsh and Swamp have a close connection I feel... thus... Nikosins ride atop his opponents storming march through them has won him this around...

Round Nikosin... 3 Flags Neutral!

 

[Knight Otu]

The whip tumbles upon the cavern; dodges the cut of the star!​

Expecting another attack from above, Paros Mal whips his spear at Nikosin before dropping into a roll away from his opponent's assumed direction of attack.
