8-C Tournament Match 9 (Rabbit (Juuni Taisen: Zodiac War) vs Knack)

[WeeklyBattles]

From the books that I own, believe it or not when I say I have scans to back up what I'm saying I do usually mean it lol

 

[Ionliosite]

I always have scans to what I say, but I don't own anything because of low incomes

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Honestly same

But yeah so essentially If knack cute rabbit to pieces rabbit plays possum, waits for knack to drop his guard, then stabs him in the back, almost guaranteed to hit hisncore seeing as it in his chest and the heart is what he goes for 100% of the time

 

[Ionliosite]

Well, yeah, those scans convienced me. I'll change my vote to Rabbit for Weekly's reasons.

 

[Blahblah9755]

Changing to Rabbit too. Going by those scans it seems that he would be harder to stop than Knack's core would be.

It might be good to have some of those scans on Rabbit's page, or an explanation that the body parts aren't limited to their normal range of movement.

 

[Moritzva]

I'm going to point out that this means Rabbit > Culexus Assassin, btw.

(Also, Knack kinda already lost to Crystal, so this'll be more interesting. I'll switch to Wabbit FRA.)

 

[Ricsi-viragosi]

Rabbit fra.

 

[Sir_Ovens]

8-C+ big Knack's core isn't as easy to backstab as everyone thinks it is. That small blue dot at Knack's chest is where the orb would be. If any of Rabbit's piecrs come for Knack he can just AoE slam his relics outward and reform back.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

How big is Knack exactly?

Andl Rabbit may be insane but hes not dumb by any means, his skill and craftiness with the powers of Necromantist allowed him to outmatch two of the worlds best martial artists and one of the worlds best swordsmen

 

[Sir_Ovens]

A little bit bigger than a tank.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Okay so it would still be around the size of a human heart, its right in the middle.of his chest. and it glows bright blue, why would it be hard for Rabbit to hit that?

Sending his relics outwards as an aoe attack and then recalling them is just asking for rabbit to latch part of his body onto a relic or two and use it to get inside knack's body

 

[Sir_Ovens]

Skip to the 6 minute mark

As you can see, even being near Knack would push Rabbit back and damage him, and the relics come back almost instantly.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

But that wouldn't kill him and if Rabbit learns that knack is able to and willing to do something like that he would absolutely exploit it

Also assuming Rabbit's followup attack is seen which isn't very likely

 

[FDrybob]

How big is Knack here? Depending on the size, I'm not sure a bunch of limbs will have enough reach to get through to his core, or at least fast enough not to be noticed.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

A little bit bigger than a tank.

 

[Sir_Ovens]

My mistake, his "bigger than a tank" isn't his maximum size.

This is visually how big Knack is at his largest.

Use Katrina (the woman in the mech) as a guage of how big he is.

Knack officially in the second game is 32 feet tall at his tallest, but take that with a grain of salt because in the first game he was never given an official height.

Here's a better scene of Knack at his largest from the second game.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Okay so not big enough that Usagi cant viably jump to reach his core

Also him being that big is a bit of a detriment to himself, he has a lot more blind spots as a result

 

[Sir_Ovens]

Having blindspots isn't an issue when every individual relic on Knack is something he can feel and control. Blasting a few off his back is a tactic he can use to get people off him, and exploding and reforming is something he does quite often.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

That wont really save him from Usagi going directly for his core, and i think i already explained why the exploding and reforming thing would be a terrible idea

 

[Sir_Ovens]

Exploding would not just damage Rabbit, but push him away as well. He's not getting to Knack in the explosion. Besides that, Knack could also perform a relic hurricane to further tear up Rabbit until he stops moving.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

That would work maybe one time, but once Rabbit sees that Knack can do that he'd use it to his advantage

Relic hurricane would also work to Rabbit's advantage as it would both make it easier for him to play possum and would guarantee that he gets split into a large number of body parts to use against Knack

Also cant Knack's individual relics be destroyed?

 

[Sir_Ovens]

Each of Knack's individual relics have 7-B dura, including the core. However, hitting the core in his chest with an 8-C force is enough to unbind his relics long enough to incap. 8-C attacks done to Knack can at most remove chunks of relics from his body, but without hitting the core, he reforms back pretty easily.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

So Rabbit would incap Knack by going for his core

 

[DontTalkDT]

Should be time to count votes soon. So, make clear votes if you haven't already

 

[Sir_Ovens]

So Rabbit would incap Knack by going for his core

1) He doesn't know about the core.

2) Knack can just explode relics in all directions, tearing Rabbit apart more and more.

3) Knack can form a relic hurricane that Rabbit can't walk through without being torn to shreds.

 

[DontTalkDT]

The way I count it the votes are

Knack: Antoniofer, Sir Ovens, Listentomyrhytm, Necromercer

Rabbit: WeeklyBattles, Ionliosite, Blahblah9755, Moritzva, Ricsi-viragosi

So Rabbit advances with 1 vote advantage.

 

[Ionliosite]

Why wouldn't Rabbit be capable of walking throught the wind without being torn to shreds? Rabbit can keep fighting after that anyway

 

[DontTalkDT]

Next Match.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

1) He doesn't know about the core.

2) Knack can just explode relics in all directions, tearing Rabbit apart more and more.

3) Knack can form a relic hurricane that Rabbit can't walk through without being torn to shreds.

He doesnt need to know specifically about the core, Rabbit goes for the heart of his opponents in character as a means of preserving their body so they arent too damaged when they turn into zombies. He doesnt need to know specifically about the core, the core is just exactly where the heart would be and is bright blue, and seeing that Knack is visibly not human it wouldnt be hard for Rabbit to put two and two together.

Both of those attacks would only benefit Usagi, giving him more means to split his body up to make more parts of himself to attack Knack with and making it easier for him to play possum to be able to catch Knack off guard with an ambush from a blind spot
