Actually, my character'd have a decided advantage if ice were converted to steam. His ability to spawn fire isn't exactly.. the normal means you see in many roleplays. =P In fact, that's why I kept wishing one of my tournament opponents would just see it as far as, ".. !! WATER > FIRE! LOL!" and stick exclusively with trying to flood me out.

Would've been the biggest massacre in this entire tournament.

BUT SNOW, you could.. perhaps, form a means of changing the state of your 'ice' - ya know, mist to solid, as an example? It's a variation of Azurino's idea.
If so, you could develop thousands of means of stealthy attacks; example: Coat your fists in what appears to be idle moisture, start a punch at someone from a good two feet away [usually, two far away for one to consider possible to actually hit-] then, have the moisture condense into ice again and extent out rapidly, almost like a pike.

Quick, hard to notice, harder to dodge, deadly. =P

Azurino -- Tried that before. Failed. The opponent turned the steam into a big field of electrical charge. xP

Omi -- Tried that too. The b*****d just said that he had a fire coating on his armor or such, melting the ice before it could do any impact at him at all. *Kills the toad*

Water is greater than fire - but do imagine - water is hard to generate, and the opponent can then argue that the stamina would be drained with a few short posts. One can only go so far with water manipulation before people cry out godmodding. Bastards, all of them. stressed

I was thinking of using the moisture as lethal blades instead. When they approach me, the water condenses and slashes through the air like a knife. eek I'll do that to Trei and see how that happens. twisted

You said ice versus fire. Nothing about electrical.

The fire coated armor person being a certain individual that got DQed outta the tourney?

Water is only greater than fire if the right circumstances occur.

If you want Omi, in a mock battle or something (non-canon with the tournament or anything), I can try to see if I can come up with some different ways to hit ya with ice or cold. That is if you want. Character being a slightly 'insane' ice manipulater that fights with the training of a monk upclose. I have heard a few of your previous experiences with monks and I swear this one will NOT 'hit' on you.

.. Swear to God, I must be slipping. I swear I didn't see that post before. O_o; ANYWHO! Sounds rather interesting, especially the last part. No trying to slit my throat open while simultaneously attempting to graft a monstrous bee into an open gash on my left arm with the intention of it burrowing through & bursting some immediate blood vessels, I hope? [Out of tournament moment recently. Can't say Omi's had a.. particularly good stroke of luck.]

Where in the tournament would this mock battle be a good spot to go down? Outer grounds, perhaaaaps?

[Snow]: YOU CAN'T KILL TOAD! User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show. And sounds like an entertaining idea. How durable would the substance be, by chance, once it condenses to that point? =P Or would this focus more on a quick, sharp attack rather than durability?

But, I'm sure you saw why I enjoy battling anyone utilizing raw, liquid water in my explanation of my "technique" in the bout we had itself. I can brag as being, likely, the single highest anti-water character [by circumstance] in the tournament. Only person I'd rather face, would be someone that utilizes say, large amounts of blood in some shape or manner. Would not be a pleasant day for someone like that. Hell, if for whatever zany reason, there was a corpse out on the field..

On the flip side of the coin, I've noticed a number of characters in this tournament that, just by design, would be very difficult to exploit in the manner I'm gesturing at. 'Course, I won't name who.. that'd spoil the fun. domokun

[Sparn]: I remember you. XD By the sig, namely.

1 more day. If certain fighters do not post then, there's sadly going to be some closing of some matches.

By my signature, hm...? That seems to be how a lot of people remember me... Heh.

How have you been doing, Omi?

Yeah... I dropped out in the first round, though. I had other things to do...

..Of course, those things then vanished right after I quit... Heh.

@Omi: Blood? Are you hinting at something? ninja

@Snow: Go for it...

Gah.. I tried reading a few of these battles...

...People really like to type, it would seem...

Yeah, typing a shitload seems to be how it works these days.

And ******** had though it was my opponent's turns in all my fights... Here's me, being a retard.

I understand the need for details, but... People are going way overboard on it...

I think the purpose is to make your post so long that people forget how it began by the time they finish reading.

Okay, we are thinking of two different kinds of mock battles. What I was thinking is a kind of void battle. Has no place anywhere in your character's storyline or has any impact. It was as if it was just a dream. I was thinking a 'friendly' match in which either person could kill the other. This being since this is 'all but a dream' and will have no impact on reality. While it 'is a dream,' obviously we can't have monstrous bee appear outta nowhere unless you can summon one (whatever the hell the kind of munch is called for summoning things outta nowhere 'conveniently' despite not having that ability). If you ever fought in the Leviathan Stadium, it would be as if we were fighting in the Ethereal Void Thread.
