    SBA Addendum: Fight Distances

    Okay, so regarding the SBA, it is currently written as such: "Starting distance: The characters start as far away from each other as the highest range of the fighters is." While the intended purpose is to separate combatants as far as possible, at the same time, putting someone like Phoenix...

    SBA - State of Mind Minor Reword

    Our Standard Battle Assumptions page currently says: I still think this leaves too much room as is. I suggest a reword to this: I added the words "supernatural abilities", and removed the words "psychological tricks".

    Question about SBA

    As far as I know, SBA is a rule that brings out the strongest version of each character. if there is a character who gets certain feats but in limited conditions, does that mean those feats can be used continuously? *Sorry for my bad English

    SBA & Immortality (Type 9)

    Under SBA, can it be assumed the true-form of one or both fighters can join the fight? Does that extend to higher-tier true-forms?

    Changing the Standard Battle Assumptions

    This has been bothering me and other people for awhile, but it's rather simple and hopefully not controversial. Standard Battle Assumptions Characters shouldn't be considered willing to kill by default, as this very notion is a contradiction: State of mind: In character, but willing to kill...

    Vehicles and SBA

    In Standard Battle Assumptions, when it comes to a character having their vehicles (especially large ones) as standard equipment (IE. Cars, Planes, etc), if nothing is specified as to where their vehicle is, would we assume they have it with them albeit a few meters apart, or would they already...

    Verse Equalization Minor Wording Change

    Speed Equalizes to...

    This is abit of a weird question which I don't think will become relevant often but still, would be good to know. When we equalize speed, do we lower the faster character's speed to match the slower character? Or do we increase the slower character's speed to match the faster character?

    Standard Battle Assumption, languages and communication

    This is just something that came to my mind and that I'm wondering about now. Do we usually assume that characters can understand and communicate with each other even if they speak different languages? I imagine that something like that would be for example relevant for characters with Social...

    Speed Equalization Standards

    So as well know and have seen time and time again, "Speed Equalization" has been a popular term within the wiki and our various matchups, and is used quite often to make matchups more fair. However, there are times when speed equalized can be confused or convoluted, such as in the case of...

    Minor Addition: Adding "Speed Equalized" to Standards Battle Assumptions

    Ok so, this should be relatively simple. 99% of the matches on the forums, are Speed Equalized, which annoyingly have to be specified each time because they aren't stated in SBA. So just, add it to SBA already :V

    Let's ensure that characters know who they are fighting by SBA

    Dying by natural causes mid battle (SBA debate)
