Yes. They allowed Kaidou to blitz Luffy, while a slower Luffy could easily dodge the base one.
Kaidou would be able to become drunk in this fight as I mentioned above. Though, there's nothing that says he needs to be drunk in order to use them.
No there isn't, but with that being said the description clearly states that "By consuming alcohol, Kaidou is able to enter a state called Shuron Hakke (Drunken Dragon Bagua)" and there is nothing in his profile that says that he can enter this state in any other way.
That's for Shurron Hakke and it's drunk states, for the individual techniques hes used while drunk he's also used while sober against gear 5th.
Hmm I see. There is one last thing though. Thunder Bagua is an attacking move right? So can it's speed amp also be used for dodging as well?
He should be able to, we also do see him completely avoid Luffy's attacks with great bursts of speed similar to thunder bagua.
Well that settles it then, Kaidou takes this roughly 6-7 times out of 10 with high difficulty
How do these 'one hit kill attacks' work?
To make the battle a little more fair.
What are you talking about?
It's just conceptual dura neg with huge range.
Why would that one hit kill Kaidou?
I assumed Kaidou being bisected would kill him.
How would that not kill kaidou???
I don't even know what the attack is. Saying "conceptual dura neg" without saying what the attack is and how it works isn't helping.
Its literally a long ass sword slash that can cover tens-thousands of kilometres and bypass durability of literally anything with its Space-time, conceptual based nature. Not to mention thats just a normal sword slash from Reid, not his strongest and definitely spammable
Note that Reid never actually did this.
Note that nobody survived his first slash.
How would he even be able to land this? Kaidou can literally see the future.
What? I saying he never actually use a sword slash that covers kilometers, in close combat or in ranged combat.
Well, since the starting distance is 10 meters I figured that Kaidou's Dragon Form would only be detrimental in this scenario since 1)It would make him a bigger target(and thus easier to hit for Reid), 2) He could leave him open to an attack while he's transforming, 3) His Large Size(Type 0) would reduce his mobility(thus increasing the chances of him getting hit by Reid), and 4) It could end up triggering Reid's Awakened Power early(in which case the match would likely end there, since unless Kaidou's Accelerated Development/Reactive Power Level closes the skill gap then it's very unlikely that he would have any chance to win this).
doesn't Reid being able to cut through Time give he's Slash Resistance to Precognition
Why not?
being able to bypass regulus's aca4 does not give him aca4 (which is the resistance to precog you're talking about)
but how can Kaidou's Precognition see a Slash that can cut through time
It's cutting space & time, it's not travelling through it. It isn't a resistance to divination-type precog.
I didn't say it travel through time, cutting time would make it undetectable by future sight, Kaidou can not see the slash or it's affect on him in the future until it actually reach him
Why would It? Unless Raid can cut the future, Kaidou Future Sight gonna work.
I just think that it has a similar nature to Regulus, cutting time should give the slash aca2 where the slash can't get affected by time thus it won't exist in the past or the future and can only exist in the present
Cutting the fabric of time is time manipulation, not acausality. Being able to cut Regulus doesn't grant Regulus' abilities, especially since Regulus' own acausal attacks can't hurt him.
I didn't say it should give it the same ability as regulus, it's just like I explained
correct.
I think that apply only for he's ranged attacks
Reid can negate that with Attack Reflection, Damage Reduction, because Kaidou can't use any slashes in he's base form
Instinctive Action, Perception Manipulation, should negate that
No, It don't, he can see the Future for close range.
Sure.
He can't, because that would need him to have a similar AP to Kaidou, which he don't have. He can't reflect a attack stronger than him.
That would work, but considering the amount of attacks Kaidou can trow at him, and Reid demage reduction as never seen to work against continuous attacks as far i remember, not sure If that would super be effective in the long run.
He can see the future, so he would't let that happen.
No, Kaidou used against people have similar abilities and who can see the Future and know the attack as coming, and still as not able to react, so that won't work.
Yes.
Conqueror's Haki. Reid doesn't have supernatural willpower on his profile, so he'd be incapacitated fairly early in the fight.
Kaidou would not need to tank his attacks. Kaidou with Haki can see several seconds into the future, read the mind of Reid, read the intent of his attacks, allow Kaidou'd body to move on its own to avoid getting hit, and more. In close combat, Kaidou would still dominate.
Kaidou's Conqueror's Haki has a range of over Hundreds of Kilometer.
He does but its just not in the profile
He also has heat resistance via the flow method
Reid is way too skilled to let that happen
Ram can read her opponents better than if she was reading their minds and she is inferior to Reid
Thats just basic instinctive reaction and Reid scales to Reinhard who debatebly has way better instinctive reaction
Get it added before arguing it.
Haki has layered resistance negation.
So was Luffy.
Prove that Ram's mind reading in combat is superior to Kaidou's.
Based on what?
