High School Edgelord vs High-Functioning Sociopath (3-1-0)

[DeltaStriker22]

Can someone explain briefly how Sherlock and Mycroft have better stealth mastery than Ayanokouji? Having both seen all of the show and checked out the verification on his profile it is a collection of sleight of hand/lockpicking type skills which seem honestly inferior to even Ryuuen who was able to remain hidden during the island exam and avoid detection from the other 3 classes. Let alone Ayanokouji who can conceal his presence far beyond that. Brief tangent ig...

I gave Sherlock and Mycroft better stealth because of Mycroft infiltrating a criminal organization, which sherlock should scale to considering he has more stealth feats and also gets missions from MI6. Ayanokoji's best feats are following some people.

Though, I guess in this scenario being able to kill his presence would be more useful than the infiltration feats.

I vote Koji here

Agreed with Huntsman, I would vote Ayanokouji as well, he's just too much better in his situation that Sherlock wouldn't be able to cross him up with his intellect.

Just following some people is certainly a bit reductive but in Sherlock/Mycroft's case their ability to infiltrate a criminal organization doesn't directly lend itself to "stealth" tbh.

To quote the VSBW definition of Stealth Mastery "Stealth Mastery is ability to make use of stealth, generally for the purpose of spying on and/or assassinating targets. Users are highly skilled at stealth and have incredibly extensive knowledge and skill in many types and ways of stealth tactics, enabling him to easily slip in and out of areas undetected. Their abilities in all manners of stealth are so refined that they can typically remain hidden, unseen, and unheard to strike at enemies once a time before getting spotted, followed, or traced. Stealth can usually be accomplished through pure skill, specialized equipment, and/or the usage of other powers, such as Invisibility, adapting to blend into one's surroundings, dampening one's presence entirely, or suppressing the sounds one would make."

Stealth is about hiding your presence and remaining undetected rather than infiltration which relies on things like social influencing to gain access to certain locations or people. In fact the more I look into this I think a CRT for removing Stealth Mastery from Sherlock would be valid but this isn't the place for that obv.

Koji's ability to kill his presence and remain undetectable from others, his ability to move silently, and combined with his ability to control things like his Heart Rate/breathing are all far more applicable here than anything shown from Sherlock/Mycroft in terms of stealth.

Though, I guess in this scenario being able to kill his presence would be more useful than the infiltration feats.

In short I agree
