SBA

Both 9-A

Speed equalized

Who wins?

Misao:

Mori Jin:

Inconclusive

I could restrict Re-Taekwondo depending on how this goes.

What does Misao normally start with?

 

[Celestial_Pegasus]

She doesnt really have a starting move, she responds based on what her opponent plans to do, her precog is basically on the level on mind reading.

Well Mori would probably start with basic h2h combat. His kit in his first key is pretty restricted so he doesn't exactly have much to do.
How exactly does her precog work?

 

[Celestial_Pegasus]

In verse anyone of sufficient skill can predict their opponents future attacks, for example Yukiko can do that, however when up against Misao she was shocked because Misao was moving in response to strategies she was envisioning in her mind.

She denied it was like Kakeru's precog which is literally future sight, just that Misao is that skilled.

So yea, basically she will know and react to whatever you plan on doing even before you do it.

Hmm alright. Mori is in a pretty similar spot where basically any competent fighter in the verse can predict moves yet Mori is one of the best at it. Baek for example is so smart he could read an entire fight down to the specific attacks and intentions behind them between over a dozen people simply by looking at the destroyed battlefield and yet he considered Mori as a huge threat that he's glad to avoid.

Mori later also fought Ilpyo who knew Moris own martial arts and it's weaknesses even better than Mori himself and as a result could not just predict everything Mori was going to do, but also already knew the best way to counter and negate all of his attacks. And Mori managed to simply adapt to Ilpyos predictions and moves to where he beat Ilpyo despite being already weakened from previous fights.

So Mori should be able to eventually overcome Misaos precognition by adapting to it. Does she have any fancy hax that could shake up the fight? Her profile definitely makes her ability section look more impressive than part 1 Moris at a glance

Off the top of my head since I am on the road; cutting through space, and mind/energy/paralysis (she can focus her thoughts and energy on someone freezing them, but it's stated the true ability is more deadly, so probably more so mind control/destruction imo).

She can also amp her speed, and now that I think about it scales to someone who can one shot someone who scales above 0.044 tons, with only a fraction of their power, which I think Mori is like 0.050?

Can't she just one tap Mori with that?

Uhh yeah but that's like really casually. He could endure the 8B value without fatal damage so he should upscale from 0.057 tons as well

Yea, I suppose

 

[DavidTPPM]

Yea, I suppose

Then the match is a stomp ig

 

[Celestial_Pegasus]

Eh, couldn't Mori also one shot with Re-Taekwondo?

And here I was expecting an argument about skill, dodged a bullet it seems

 

[DavidTPPM]

I mean, he could but that's hard to do if he gets his mind diddled before he could do so.

And here I was expecting an argument about skill, dodged a bullet it seems

Well sadly skill won't save him from mind hax

at this point in the story it's less that he's 8-B with Re-Taekwondo (his 9-A rating is from a Re-Taekwondo move) but that specific Blue Dragon Kick.

It's kinda weird that his profile lists it as RT when it's specifically a one shot move

go forth and make the world's most minor CRT to reword it, my son
