BattleCON G9 - KingdomAces (Lixis) vs. Zorblag (Clive)

[Zorblag]

It's another game of BattleCON! Always one to get back on that horse we have KingdomAces playing the Biomancer Lixis out for revenge! He'll be matching up against The Inventor's Apprentice, Clive! Lixis gets to fight a whole different type of cyborg. Will nature win out against cybernetics this time around?

If you're interested in learning about or playing a game yourself at some point I'll point you to the BattleCON discussion thread in the Arcade. For now, thanks to KingdomAces for stepping up to be the next scummer to whale on a Troll in the pbf fighting series!

We'll be playing with Dodge and the Force Gauge.

@KingdomAces, go ahead and submit your discard 1, discard 2 and finisher. Remember that Discard 2 is the one you'll get back first.

[Zorblag]

Hmm, you got back before I finished that edit.

Did you look at my ante yet?

-Zorblag R`Lyeh

[KingdomAces]

Yeah, but I'll still pass.

[Zorblag]

If not then I'd like to keep the new move, but if you had looked already I'll change it back to the old one. I've not looked at anything from you yet.

Or rather, what was the ante you saw?

-Zorblag R`Lyeh

[KingdomAces]

Priority +1, but I didn't look at the move. Change it all you want.

[KingdomAces]

Or the ante, because grammar.

[Zorblag]

Nah, that's the original move. I'm fine with it; I've changed it all back to what it was originally. Then I'm passing after your pass.

-Zorblag R`Lyeh

[Zorblag]

I just hope you didn't Naturalizing Drive me here. That's the move I realized that I should be worried about.

-Zorblag R`Lyeh

[KingdomAces]

I think you soundly won this one.

[Zorblag]

OK, vine drive is better for me, yeah.

Looks like I've got priority. I'll retreat 1, hit you for five, stunning you, and then push you back 2.

-Zorblag R`Lyeh

[Zorblag]

So I've got LooooCo.

That sound right?

Yeah.
