Speed Blitz (and Rules for it)

[Aparajita]

As something that is always brought up "lol speedblitz", i think we need to have set rules for how speed blitz works.

What is the required speed? Is it a strict scale or does it scale higher the faster you go?

What i mean by that... let's say 10x speed is the "Speed Blitz" start, if you move 10mph, and i move 100mph, i can speed blitz you.

Does the same apply for 20 to 200? or 1 million to 10 million?

What constitues as a speed blitz, directly?

A speed blitz is when a character can land multiple attacks on an opponent and essentially "no-sell" their opponent's attacks via evasion. A minimum range speedblitz (I think something like a multiplier of 3-4 times the opponent's speed should constitute this) can accomplish this but is not an auto win because of abilities like precognition, character intelligence, planning and automatic powers.

Speedblitzes that go higher than that become much more difficult to argue against, with, IMO, speedblitzes of over 50x your opponent's speed being near auto-wins outside of a) a lack of DC or b) some hax that impedes speed blitzing.

If you are trying to establish a logical range for that, I suppose it could be done but IDK where we can find literature on the exact semantics of it. A page listing all the abilities that give the user a chance to survive against speed blitzing may also be useful.

Okay, i'll work on that and post it on the Content Revision page. Thanks for the idea, Alakabamm.
