This is gonna be an interestingly technical matchup.

Wolery is playing the range-dependent Byron Krane!




signalnoise is playing the priority-dependent Ottavia Six!



Players, send in your starting discards and finishers. Anybody who's watching, feel free to heckle.

I gotta create a couple cheap assets real quick.

Eh-hem. A reading. From Prometheus, by the hand of one Lord Byron:

Titan! to whose immortal eyes
The sufferings of mortality,
Seen in their sad reality,
Were not as things that gods despise;
What was thy pity's recompense?
A silent suffering, and intense;
The rock, the vulture, and the chain,
All that the proud can feel of pain,
The agony they do not show,
The suffocating sense of woe,
Which speaks but in its loneliness,
And then is jealous lest the sky
Should have a listener, nor will sigh
Until its voice is echoless.

That mask gimmick is an odd one. Five shall be the number of the counting, and the number of the counting shall be five. Thou shalt not hit six times, nor shalt thou hit four times, unless thou wouldst then proceed to five.

Titan! to thee the strife was given
Between the suffering and the will,
Which torture where they cannot kill;
And the inexorable Heaven,
And the deaf tyranny of Fate,
The ruling principle of Hate,
Which for its pleasure doth create
The things it may annihilate,
Refus'd thee even the boon to die:
The wretched gift Eternity
Was thine—and thou hast borne it well.

Anti-Personnel seems a very strange style to pair with dash. It's slow enough for a grasp to clash out and it doesn't get to use any of its effects :raise:

Anyway, movement?

Also I used antipersonnel because I expected Byron to use Soulless, so he was gonna lose a mask anyway, and I needed to burn something with dash

Ah, good. I shall continue.

All that the Thunderer wrung from thee
Was but the menace which flung back
On him the torments of thy rack;
The fate thou didst so well foresee,
But would not to appease him tell;
And in thy Silence was his Sentence,
And in his Soul a vain repentance,
And evil dread so ill dissembled,
That in his hand the lightnings trembled.
