OOC:
I'll finish off with a DEF after this turn!
Beginning to feel the effects of the ACID RAIN, Exdeath rushes forward for a STR attack, looking to end this fight quickly... His attack is a success!
-15 to Ultros's HP
Exdeath takes a further -20 to every stat
Ultros's thrashes angrily as is reduced to 120/200 HP
Exdeath remains relatively untouched at 170/200 HP
MAGD, STR and MAG have been played.
The next turn goes to Ultros!
DEF jam vendetta.
capped at -5 to each stat each turn is probably better.
Ultros ensnares Exdeath in one purple tentacle and prepares for his final attack! He attacks his weakened opponent with his DEF stat... It is a success.
Exdeath is sent reeling with a massive -100 to his HP
Exdeath is stunned, now sitting with just 70/200 HP
Ultros squelches his approval at his 120/200 HP
4 Stats have been played. The battle has concluded.
The winner is Ultros!
OOC: Thanks guys. A good battle and I have some very handy information from it to rebalance both of your abilities. A well fought game from both of you!
One thing I learned was that my "ability -> item" strategy does give the pick of the combat stats to the opponent. I only got to choose one and that was the last move of the game. If he'd had a high SPD stat and gone for that instead of MAGD, my huge strength, I wouldn't have fared well in that at all.
Yeah but the item/ability strategy also helps delay the game, and since I was playing by ear and not looking at the stat sheets, I didn't know which of your stats was good or not; so it was very likely I would choose the wrong stat and get creamed with a -10 to it. My only hope of winning would have been to start off with two of my weaker stats, and save my highest stats for last, but considering MAGD is my second highest stat and I lost that round, I didn't really have much of a chance unless I started the match with Void, but even that skill would have only delayed your ability to use the actions, so it wouldn't have been useful for me. Even delaying your use of a potion doesn't help me because I can't take another action, and with Acid Rain in effect, you had a strong chance of winning or at least minimizing the damage of having to take a STAT action.
True beauty exists in things that last only for a moment.
Current Mood: And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe. Maybe this year will be better than the last. I can't remember all the times I tried to tell myself. To hold on to these moments as they pass...
