Hello all, I'm here to fix the Gorgonopsid like I did the Vastatosaurus Rex awhile back as it needs an actual rating for its intelligence stat but the justification could use some serious updating based on its fight with the Future Predator.

Now then, this fight is a lot more High IQ than I remember it being.


When it gets jumped at 1:20, the Future Predator is naturally aiming for its vital points while staying in its blind spot since it can naturally predict its prey's movements while scanning it for vital points and weak spots thanks to its echolocation sonar, yet the Gorgonopsid is able to kick it off after getting slashed up but gets its head slammed into the ground so the FP can get back in its blind spot and continue the assault, however the Gorgonopsid quickly adapts to this and rips the FP back off much faster than before as it keeps the mutant within its sight and not letting it get the jump on it again. It then attempts to pin the Future Predator so it can bite it but the Future Predator dodges before trying to get in its blind spot for a third time, however the Gorgonopsid has figured its tactics out by now and instantly prevents it from doing so, pinning it to the ground and causing it to lash out by ripping out the Gorgonopsid's eye, making it let go and allowing the Future Predator to knock it to the ground however the Gorgonopsid is able to counter predict one of its strikes on its blind side and bite down on the FP's arm, nit allowing it to move anymore before flinging itself backwards and crushing it under its body weight. That screams to me like it's far above Animalistic in intelligence, it's at least Average in combat skill, especially when the Future Predator is currently rated as Above Average in intelligence.
 
I guess the question remains then of how to word this properly on the Gorgonopsid's profile so it isn't that condensed cluster-dump I used to explain why it should have at least Below Average to Average Combat Intelligence.
 
@Lonkitt Hey man, OP wanted me to remind you of this thread's existence in case you still wanna write up that intelligence section. My apologies for the ping if you're busy or unavailable tho, do take your time.
