Start of Beat: Luc has 2 effects: Advance 1; spend Time Tokens to advance that many spaces. (Basically, you can end anywhere except for the far right space.)
Lixis retreats 1 or 2 spaces.

Chrono Flash has Range 1. At Range at least 2, it misses!

Lixis can guarantee a hit no matter where Luc goes.

On Hit: Luc must choose one base to discard. [Options: Shot, Strike, Grasp, Dash] Lixis may pull Luc up to 2 spaces.

Lots of choices for you guys. Sorry, Luc; since you choose Start-of-Beat effects before Lixis, you're guaranteed to miss, and Lixis can guarantee a hit if she chooses. (The only way for her to miss is if you go to the back corner and she chooses to go to the other one.)

Well that was a minor miscalculation on my part :argh:

I hate it when i outsmart myself. I can't actually advance past Lixis with chrono, so I can only advance one with flash, and then she bursts back.

So spending no tokens because I can't :D

Actually, events in real life have caught up with me, and it looks like I won't be able to finish this game at any speed that might be even reasonable. So if possible replace me, if not I guess its a forfeit.

Technically it's +4 power and priority because grasp is now in discard 1, but it's a moot point.

Advance 1. I was *positive* you were going for fusion dash.

That's not how Cancel works. The Cancelled pair goes *directly* to discard 1, and cycles to 2 for the next beat. We've had to do this rules dance like a billion times on the forums.
