BattleCON G 3 - KingdomAces (Hikaru) vs. Zorblag (Kallistar)

Post Post #0 (ISO) » Thu May 12, 2016 5:41 pm

It's another game of BattleCON! This time it's the Geomancer Hikaru vs. the Fire Elemental Kallistar!

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!

@KingdomAces, we've got a couple things to decide before we start. Do you want to use Anted Finishers or the Force Gauge (I'm fine with either; for your first game the anted finishers are suggested. We can even use the Special Action if you want, though that's no longer the tournament standard and it's the most complicated of the three.) I'm going to go with the default discards and the alpha finisher to start the match, but you'll need to decide what you want to do. I'd prefer to start at positions 3 and 5 rather than 2 and 6 just because that's again the new standard as of Fate (the latest game in the series.)

Let me know if you have any questions, but welcome to the arena!

I think I'd rather start with the Anted Finishers. Also, until 7 hp, I don't think you can do anything during Ante phase, and I can Ante a maximum of once, so not using the force gauge would massively speed things up, in case that would be an issue otherwise.

Discard 1: Trance Dash
Discard 2: Focused Grasp
Finisher: Wrath of Elements

I was going to actually come up with my own starting setup, but this actually does look best for me.

As you say, I have no ante, so we can move right along.

It does! I'm priority 0, so you've got start of beat first. Would you care to play another token?

Well, need is a strong term, but I think it's a reasonable idea at least.

I'll retreat 2 spaces for my start of beat (and then prepare for the hurt.)

Advance two with Drive. I attack with 7 power, which should hit due to water, and I think you soak 1?

That looks right. I soak 1, take 6 damage and am stunned so I don't hit.

End of Beat I enter Elemental Form.

Does that look right to you? I'm typing up the beat now.

Oh, and because I don't have any decisions to make I looked at your attack pair. It isn't legal because Trance is in Discard 2. You're welcome to change that whatever legal pair you like if you haven't looked at my attack pair (before making an ante.)

Crap, I got discards one and two confused, meh.

Yeah, I did look at it, I thought it wouldn't matter since my ante would have been nulled if I did make it.

Yeah, sorry about that. But this is the first game you've played so it's all just a learning experience!

I did like the move though, were it legal. Burst was the one obvious weakness that attack pair had for me. Now I have to decide if you'll play it again. I think that I'll sleep on it as I won't have time to type anything up tonight anyhow.

Have a lovely stretch and I'll see you tomorrow!

I didn't look at the discards in the recent post, because I'm an idiot and think I know what I'm doing. I really did want dash back first, so it's not like I wasn't kind of planning ahead, but oh well.

In that case I'll

Wait, if I don't have Trance, then that means you don't have Dash, which is the entire reason I went with Burst in the first place. Not doing this anymore.
