Due to this not reaching the minimum of 12 posts, or even coming close, I’m not going to be using the rubric. I will be commenting a little bit on the posts, and then declaring a winner! As Dirks said in the first round:
I’d like to copy/paste an easy to miss excerpt of the Battle FAQ that might be helpful later in the tournament: “It is possible that your partner or your opponent might be gone for an extended period of time, but it might be in your interest to keep the battle moving. In that instance, you might bunny (with permission, see below) [your partner out of the fight] or simply continue the fight with the remaining players.”
If Ixidar’s partner was MIA you could have gone on without them, just made up some reason as to why they disappeared. Perhaps there was a reason in the ToC area that I didn’t go look for, but either way it’s the easiest way to make this last a bit longer and be more fulfilling. That being said, onto the comments.
Neither team was bad, unfortunately only both members of Sasurai posted, meaning they win by default. The only comments I have for the team is that the writing was very well done, though be careful not to overdo the advanced technique in your writing. If you had kept up the writing, Wings, it would have slowed the pacing a little and made it rather hard to shift through. I loved the majority of what you wrote, just a couple things that were a little hard to follow.
Sasurai Advances to Round 3!
