Shin Akuma vs. Ephel Pyocola

ah, sure. altho the ooc thread at the end of our last duel kinda had a bad taste...
oh, and by all means make it difficult. i'm trying to polish this style a bit with actual combat situations. studyimg theory only works so far. just nothing cheap ^_^

i want to be the wind. to drive away the clouds. to bring peace and still heavy hearts. to race across the corners of the world. to raise dust to blot out the sun. to chill their souls and drive them to shelter behind stone walls. to soar unrestricted over all. i want to carry people to unimaginable heights with their wings. i want to crush them into the earth and drive them deeper until they are swallowed and mingle with the warm red dust. i want absolute freedom never to be captured or held down. except by the thin confines of the sky by the nihlist vacuum.

Both of his swords are undrawn and hang from his left side. ooc: ephel's using his daisho set of course ^_^ i need the practice ^_^ and i'm not gonna commit myself to any particular stance until i know what my opponent looks like and what weapon he's using. i want to be the wind. to drive away the clouds. to bring peace and still heavy hearts. to race across the corners of the world. to raise dust to blot out the sun. to chill their souls and drive them to shelter behind stone walls. to soar unrestricted over all. i want to carry people to unimaginable heights with their wings. i want to crush them into the earth and drive them deeper until they are swallowed and mingle with the warm red dust. i want absolute freedom never to be captured or held down. except by the thin confines of the sky by the nihlist vacuum.

Ephel unsheaths the wakizashi alone and holds it pointing away from his body in his outstretched left hand. His right hand is held slightly in front of his face, palm open to his left and fingers loose and relaxed. He advances deliberately with a normal walking step. i want to be the wind. to drive away the clouds. to bring peace and still heavy hearts. to race across the corners of the world. to raise dust to blot out the sun. to chill their souls and drive them to shelter behind stone walls. to soar unrestricted over all. i want to carry people to unimaginable heights with their wings. i want to crush them into the earth and drive them deeper until they are swallowed and mingle with the warm red dust. i want absolute freedom never to be captured or held down. except by the thin confines of the sky by the nihlist vacuum.

While still in normal walking steps, I yell Ashura Senkuu!!, effortlessly I appear behind Ephel, whith no time to react with me so close by I yell Shakunetsu Hadouken!!, a baseball sized ball of flameing hado appears in my palm, which when made airborn becomes the size of a volly ball, instantanioulessly it makes inpact with Ephel's back and his entire body bursts into flames and is lapsed into midair, while still in air I crouch down and yell, Messatsu Gou Shouryu!!, as I sweep upwards in an uppercut my entire arm engulfed in fire I drive my fist into his back, instantanioulessly after I land back on the ground, I yell Ashura Senkuu!!, and teleport to a distance of about 5-6 meters away from where Ephel will land. ooc: note: My entire attack took no more than 4 seconds to excute.

LiLbOiWiTsUsHi Digital World Visitor Posts: 40 (4/26/02 6:39 pm) Reply	Re: Shin Akuma vs. Ephel Pyocola ooc: you watch too much dbz and street fighter ^_^;; four seconds is much too long. it really should be less than one. and if you don't even allow me time to react, i suppose ephel would be out once he was set on fire by the hadoken. so i suppose this would be match. but that would be really cheap wouldn't it? first, some basic physical limitations. ephel is a sprinter, so needless to say, he's quite fast himself. the secret of shukuchi is the ability to spring from a dead standstill to one's maximum speed instantaneously. it's not merely a a way of running, but a way of carrying the body. but that is somewhat fiatful isn't it? let's just settle that ephel is very much faster than the ordinary person and has very fast reflexes, partly due to training, partly due to natural talent, and partly due to practice in reading moves. now assuming you're actually screaming the names... i'd think ephel would suspect something the instant you yelled something equivalent to "teleport". now you'd have to finish it before you actually teleported or he would hear you behind him. fast reflexes remember? now that he knows you're teleporting, the immediately obvious possibilities would be behind or above him as those are the largest blindspots and also the positions in which an attacker can most strongly be offensive. considering that a teleporting foe is prolly very fast, the rear would be the most immediate threat rather than above because the speed of an attack from behind is dependent on the speed of the attacker instead of gravity. so ephel would immediately shield his rear by instinct while also moving to throw off any less mobile aerial attack. furthermore, the shakunetsu hadouken is a very long name and would take a relatively long time to shout. more than enough for ephel to react, which he would automatically do once you started to shout a teleport technique anyway. the fireball would also need time to build itself up anyway, even a split second is enough as long as its not instantaneous. so that's three chances to react. the setup isn't quite as you make it out to be. dun mind the notes in parentheses. those are a simplified breakdown of each element and why i used it. useful for some. Ephel rotates the wakizashi behind him about 1.5 meters above the ground (upper torso/neck level i would think, and i'm not sure if by "right behind" you mean within striking distance) with his left shoulder, using his right hand (consequently moving forward) to catch himself as he rolls (the rotation would carry itself into the roll so it's not really a flip or anything fancy) forward (this would be to evade the hadouken even if it were shot off and as i pointed out earlier, useful in throwing off aerial attacks). Flowing from the roll back into a standing guard, Ephel faces Shin Akuma as before (same stance and guard). ooc: there's a reason i chose to draw the wakizashi alone. the wakizashi alone would give a considerable offensive edge in combat, but i'd need the free movement of my one hand to keep up with your faster hand-to-hand attacks. ephel's pretty ambidexterous, so it really doesnt matter too much which hand is used, altho he tends to be right handed which would be needed if i'm going to try to hold off two hand punches. the uppercut would miss if you still decide to pull it off, altho i see no reason to as it would just create a huge opening underneath you while you were attacking in the air. teleporting would be fine, but shouting it out leaves plenty of time to react. aural clamovocation ^_^ slows things down a bit like teleport ^_^ power doesn't mean a thing if it can't connect. oh... and as for the stance, i'll name it the kenkakusekishujutsu ("one handed swordsman style") i want to be the wind. to drive away the clouds. to bring peace and still heavy hearts. to race across the corners of the world. to raise dust to blot out the sun. to chill their souls and drive them to shelter behind stone walls. to soar unrestricted over all. i want to carry people to unimaginable heights with their wings. i want to crush them into the earth and drive them deeper until they are swallowed and mingle with the warm red dust. i want absolute freedom never to be captured or held down. except by the thin confines of the sky by the nihlist vacuum.
Shun Goku Satsu Hyakki Tsui Digital World Visitor Posts: 28 (4/30/02 2:58 pm) Reply	Re: Shin Akuma vs. Ephel Pyocola First of all, this is simply just for fun, but there are some rules that we most both follow in the deathmatch, mainly all abilities must be posted in your character profile before the start of any match, that includes enhanced speed due to training, or reaction time and agility, (these were the rules even before I came along), and on another note, My speed is many more times that of a normal human being. As if Akuma weren't bad enough already, his true, powered-up form hurls double aerial fireballs and his deadly, unblockable Instant Hell Murder is faster and travels over twice as far. His torn, purple karate gi is the sole feature that distinguishes this truly despicable fighter from his common counterpart. He is a hidden boss in Street Fighter Alpha 2, and certainly the strongest of them all.
LiLbOiWiTsUsHi Digital World Visitor Posts: 44 (4/30/02 5:50 pm) Reply	Re: Shin Akuma vs. Ephel Pyocola but that's exactly the point... none of ephel's powers are extraordinary... there is a reference to his sprinting, but that is pretty subtle, especially if you aren't aware that such things exist. he just knows how to use a sword. i really dun care about "powers" or "strength" at all. they should only give slight, not overwhelming, advantages. and this IS only just for fun. which is why i find a battle primarily dependent on one's special powers to be very boring. after all, it's not ephel's powers that are doing all the work, it's myself and how i can beat your move. it's fun for me because i get to test my budo ^_^ in a pseudo-bujutsu manner. i find it gratifying when i find that a particular guard works. well, since you insist that my character has absolutely no chance of evading it without a special "instant transmission" ability or such that would not be possible for a person like him to have, then he dies. being lit like a torch does that to a normal person ^_^;; you seem to view your characters as demigods of sort, and play them as such. so i'll concede and forfeit. i think i see a trend here. even tho these matches are short and end like this, it was useful ^_^ i'd like a longer match tho so i can test out these guards more thoroughly. so challenge me again with a different character and weapon setup if you feel like it ok? let's please try to have a long match if we do. it's better for practice. and it's just more fulfilling ^_^ if there are any creative fighters out there, please talk to me ^_^ i want to be the wind. to drive away the clouds. to bring peace and still heavy hearts. to race across the corners of the world. to raise dust to blot out the sun. to chill their souls and drive them to shelter behind stone walls. to soar unrestricted over all. i want to carry people to unimaginable heights with their wings. i want to crush them into the earth and drive them deeper until they are swallowed and mingle with the warm red dust. i want absolute freedom never to be captured or held down. except by the thin confines of the sky by the nihlist vacuum.
