So what would Dracula's starting move be?

 

[Dusty_Raider]

I don't know this Dracula too well but I think he might go for hypnosis first considering he knows his opponent in this circumstance.

Again I don't know this Dracula too well so don't quote me on that.

Considering Shiki knows that Dracula is both a vampire, and can hypnotize people who make eye contact with him (much like the vampires in his verse), he would try to avoid eye contact while he closes the distance, in cqc, he only needs 1 cut or stab to kill the vampire by tracing a line of death

Considering Shiki can instinctively sense vampires, and sense his own death to dodge attacks in his blind spots, I'm fairly sure that once he closes the gap, it will be rather hard for Dracula to bite him, or anything like that

So I guess I vote for Shiki, via knowing to avoid eye contact, closing the distance enough and slashing once
