Stand there and take your beating please. I don't want to have to chase you down, but I will if I have too.
I'd like another Dash card pretty bad.

I'll advance 1, burn my stun guard for a power boost, and take his stun guard offline. Unless I've lost track of a number somewhere, that should be enough to break his various armors and stun him.
