8-C Tournament Match 4 (Star-Lord vs Yatsuhashi Daichi)

Of yeah, that scan doesn't show anything which will help in combat at all.

He removed a small part of the memory, going by the scan he won't remove star-lord's whole memory, MEANING he still has the skill of star-lord, and dodging a guy jumping up in the air is pretty easy for Star-Lord
 
Er, considering his Aura and how it works, the effects of his Semblance, and his experience against ranged fighters like Star-Lord, not to mention the likely skill gap between the two, and I'm placing my bet on Yatsuhashi for these reasons and the rest above.
 
1. Useless for a guy like starlord

2. It is only for, 3 seconds In character

3. Star-Lord has 20 years of experience, has the air, and vertasality advantage with weapons. Versus a guy who can swing a sword
 
1. Aura is not even remotely useless, Yatsu's aura can take dozens upon dozens of hits from people EQUAL to himself. Quill is weaker than oneshotable fodder in RWBY. His guns will be doing almost nothing.

2. for a Hypersonic character, 3 seconds can let them cross kilometers. 3 seconds is a massive amount of time for Quill to just be stationary and confused unaware of what is happening.

3. Experience does not necessarily equate to skill, and watering down Yatsu's skill to 'just swinging a sword' is doing the guy an extreme disservice, Yatsuhashi has been training since childhood, became skilled enough to not only make it into Beacon, one of the most exclusive hunstmen training academies, but landing a spot as a member of the field team CFVY which spends months at a time in the field fighting Grimm. He's fought people who use guns, who use a wide variety of elemental attacks, and have a ton of different abilities.

1. Even though Star-Lord also has gravity tech, restraining devices, bombs, and many other tech up his sleeves. Star-Lord has plenty of tricks up his sleeves

2. Star-Lord sees a guy running up to him with a gun, even if you are temporairly dosed, him seeing a guy running up to him with a weapon makes it pretty clear he is about to be killed and he will react even if he doesn't know why he is fighting. Sembelance affects a trivial memory, star-lord will still have his vast amounts of experience

3. Star-Lord also has some skill in fights

Star-Lord fought and defeated trained warriors from across the galaxy, (which have powerful cosmic tech) has had over 20 years of experience, could dodge attacks from Ego, and even could hold his own against gamora who has a lifetime of training and is one of the best fighters in the MCU (she could beat up multiple trained prison guards and dodge a gun blast immediately point blank right after)
 
1. Got a calc for his bombs? Because unless there's a calc we cant really assume theyre much stronger than his guns.

2. Except he wont. It takes him 3 seconds to perceive what is happening after Yatsu erases his memory.

3. Go for it
 
Mmm, i still dont see how hes gonna be able to keep with with the electricity bullets that go through his aura though. 3 seconds memory loss wont be a gamechanger when Starlord would keep well out of Yatsu's way, and can out versatile him still while in the air. We don't really know how skilled Yatsu has with it either, evident by how Mercury could kick his ass rather easily and that he doesnt seem to use his semblance within while focusing on striking. Yatsu is too grounded.

Bombs are usually stronger than bullets though yes, and have an AoE. They won't be completely ineffective against the guy
 
The only reasons i see Yatsu winning is his One shot AP (which is fair game but He's still a grounded fighter ompared to aerial and range advantage with starlord, who uses bullts that go past his Aura and can easily immobilise him regardless of Durability) and the Semblance which wouldn't be effective if he was using seconds, and while Starlord is in the air and hasn't compltely forgot about Yatsuhashi tbh. Other than that, nothing accounted for how Yatsu is going to match the versatility and aerial advantages of Starlord, as well as the fact of the electricity bullets with his massive size.
 
Two things:

1. We do see how skilled he is with it in the novel.

2. Merc beat him because hes stupidly more skilled, his training made him so that he can match semblance through sheer combat skill to make up for the lack of his own semblance and he killed his own father who possessed multiple semblance including Mercury's own.
 
1. How skilled is he with it then? Can he use it without seeing his opponent? Can he use it while he's focusing on attacking mid-combat? Is there any known cool-down? And again, what proves he has a range of several hundred metres with it?

2. Yes, ik how good best boy Mercury is, but there wasn't really an instance where we can see Mercury particularly held back by having his memory erased for a second like he would, no matter how skilled. Best i can think of is when Yatsu grabbed Mercury, but Mercury was still very clearly in motion, and this semblance was likely thought up after this fight as a whole. So theres no visual proof of how he uses this semblance within fighting ofc, or if there is, it isn't really a gamechanger. I'd imagine he would erase the memory while he was performing his drop attack that Mercury blocked if he was smart, but that didn't stop Merc from blocking it easily. How did he use it in the novel exactly? Did he ever effectively use it on Carmen, who as a pro, might be somewhat comparable?

Tbf, we don't know if Mercury's dad can use the semblances he steals, or stack them either.
 
Oop, nvm, the wiki is saying he can only memory wipe when he can touch his opponents. So so much for range, or even landing a finger on the aerial Starlord.
 
Alright so we need proof of either point. The wiki could be wrong after all. Weekly just needs to provide proof that he can do it without touching the opponent.
 
Kk, but i doubt the wiki would be wrong, that would have to have came from somewhere the fact he requires touch


(In fact, old discussion, but if its true, then surely it would also say Aura doesn't block physical contact seeing as physical contact is needed for Yatsu. Then again, if he hasn't used it on someone with actual aura then)

Where? Which one says he did it from metres away?

Also could you show where Yatsuhashi's semblance was first told in the book, before the backstory. That probably has what the wiki is saying
 
20191219 202013
Hell for ***** and giggles heres another scan showing that he just needs to think and also showing why he cant erase more than a few seconds at a time in a fight
 
@Weekly

Alright, how about this,

Just give me a quote that proves Yatsu can do it from several metres away. Because the wiki is saying its via touch. I dont know the context admittedly, but honestly they wouldn't just push it out from thin air. I'll look into it myself too
 
@Listen

10/11 (Me, Nico, Schnee, Starter, Wright, Spinoirr, Listentomyrhytm, Mori, Soul, Ionliosite) for Yat depending on what Necro is doing

4 (Jinx, Yomi, Blue, Strong) for Quill

11/12 Voters for Yatsu and only 3 for quill? Dont think thats right...

Can someone count the votes please?

This was all with the lack of info on Quill's advantages, and seemingly misconception of how Yatsu's semblance works anyway. Till someone can prove he doesn't need touch to do so like the wiki says.

Our wiki is wrong about a lot of things and we are always having CRT's to fix those things. There's nothing saying that the RWBY wiki is 100% right all the time. It just needs to be validated that's all.
