Deku usually starts with punches or kicks, it's either one and Analytical Prediction. Don't know about Xaio tho
 
Xiao would start at base and try to blitz Deku with Lemniscatic Wind Cycling immediately, but after that doesn't work he would also study Deku's movements and attacks.
 
And just a question, has Deku ever killed anyone, or is responsible for anyone's death? If he is then he would have karma inside him which Xiao can abuse for some haxs
 
Deku never killed anyone and it's one of his principles to never kill anyone, so the Karma stuff can't be used against him.
Regarding Deku, he mainly fight using punches and kicks, but he have many resorces that he can use to obtain an advantage in battle.
In first place, thanks to Analytical Prediction and the limited Precognition given by Danger Sense he can evade most of the attacks that gets thrown at him.
He can also use Smokescreen to create smoke to partially blind him while he think of a tactic, and use Black Whip to restrain him thanks to a huge LS advantage.
His most useful Quirk in this fight would be Fa Jin, thanks to which he is able to charge himself with kinetic energy to boost his speed and his AP.
To win he can use the tactic he used against Lady Nagant, Smokescreen to blind him and then use Fa Jin to boost himself and then blitz him.
 
With Fa Jin, Deku is able to accumulate kinetic energy during a fight and then use it to give himself a huge boost both in speed and power.
Against Lady Nagant, he was able to jump from a building to another to accumulate kinetic energy after he blinded her with Smokescreen, and the speed boost he gained was enough to blitz her.
 
Deku isn't a slouch in skill and combat intelligence but if xiao does have 1000 years of experience then yeah he likely has the superior experience.
 
Xiao might be more expirienced, but Deku have Analytical Prediction and Precognition on his side to even things up, so that wont be a deciding factor in this fight.

Wut? Sure precog and analytical prediction are good as hell, but to say it will somehow even out 2000 years of experience just feels really wrong.

How does his precog work, and I assume he was still hurt from time to time, so I assume it doesn't mean it will protect him from every hit?
 
Is it one thousand or 2000? Also nobody claimed he was gonna dodge every hit effortless but it should mean he can keep pace with xiao (Precog + analytical prediction)

Xiao alongside the Yaksha has killed countless demons during his two thousand year lifespan, and is so skilled even other adepti with thousands of years worth of experience approach him for pointers. Not sure how that works in tandem with Deku's own analytical prediction and precog

To add more, Xiao fought the other Yaksha as well
 
Xiao is also considered the best among the Yaksha's who are specifically trained for combat. he also has elemental intangibility and even while tormented by negative karma he still can perform at his best.

stamina wise if the battle gets too drawn out Xiao can outlast since both combatants are speed reliant and good at dodging

to add more the thousands of years of experience was when Liyue was also plague by multiple other Gods and cataclysm so it's gotta add a lot more for the skill
 
Xiao should defintely have skill and experience and can likely blow away his smoke screen with his wind attacks, but precog + analytical prediction helps mitigate the skill advantage.
Not to mention grabbing a hold of Xiao with his Shadow whips once means he's getting incapped with that massive LS difference.
Leaning towards Deku for now
 
Xiao has Elemental Intangibility to counter being grabbed, he can transform into wind energy to mitigate his LS disadvantage whenever Deku goes for a grab
 
based on his profile, seems that Xiao can use the elemental intangibility only when he perform a certain attack
  • Lemniscatic Wind Cycling: Xiao's elemental skill, where he transforms into Anemo energy and lunges forward with his spear at blistering speeds.
 
um no?
a lot of characters in genshin goes into elemental intangibility to dodge attacks or dash also when performing plunge attacks
its not limited to certain attacks
 
Deku will be able to sense his attacks and evade them before they hit him. While using Danger Sense he was only hit by things much faster then him, if I am not mistaken. Xiao have definitely the skill advantage, but that is lowered a lot by the Precognition.
On top of this, Deku's speed boost through Fa Jin will make him so much faster than Xiao that it will blitz him, and his AP will also get incredibly higher. Thanks to the huge LS he will also be able to throw him around easily with the help of Black Whip.
 
Deku speed blitzing due to the fa jin amp should be restricted, By the speed equalization rules, If the slower character wins because of a speed advantage that they normally wouldn't have outside of a speed equalized match then the match is invalid
 
how long he can remain intangible?
Scaling to other vision holders, as far as we know, as long as he needs to. Childe was able to use it to escape a deep hole and fly away, Mona and Ayaka use it as a sprint and can cross long distances with it

Ah
 
It does drain stamina in-game but using it in short bursts won't exhaust him, which is all he needs to escape potential grabs
 
yes it would be restricted since Xiao has the higher speed before equalization

I mean Ayaka and Mona can remain intangible and not move in-game as well and it doesn't drain stamina that way iirc
 
Does turning intangible drain his stamina in any significant way?
Doesn't seem so since other can use it without any sign of tiring, even less so on Xiao case considering he's constantly being stricken with pain and stuff for 2000 years straight without showing a sign of his combat effectiveness declining despite barely resting at all.
