"I can definitely agree with that.  You wouldn't believe how many opponents Weavile has floored because they tried to out blitz her."

Randolph vs Candice Round 8

Weavile keeps up the Pressure, literally and figuratively!  Diam effectively only has 3 Will right now!  This is gonna be close...

Night Slash 1
(6)(1)(1)(2)(6)(1)(2)(3) No crit!
(6) Diam takes 1 damage. 3/8 HP -2 Pain

Recover 1
(5)(6)(5)
(6)(2)(5)(6) Diam recovers 3 HP! 6/8 HP -1 Pain
Spend a Will Point!  Diam effectively only has 2 Will right now (actually has 6 atm, though)

Detect 2
(6)(6)(3)(3)

Ice Punch 2
(2)(2)(1)(6)(4)(1)
4 + 3 + STAB - 7* - 3 Detect = 0 Even with a crit, Diam wouldn't have taken any damage from this attack! (as it makes sense that Protect and similar would be the last damage calculation applied)
Diam protected herself!

Avalanche 3
(5)(6)(1)(2)
(1) No damage.  Diam is doing what she does best!

Flash Cannon 3
2 Dex + 3 Fight + 2 Channel - 1 Pain - 6 Act = 0 D6
Diam doesn't have enough dice to use this as her third action because she's pained, however! (if you want me to roll a Luck Die instead since this is at the end of the Round, let me know)  Weavile smirks, satisfied that she was at least able to Pressure this wall enough to prevent it from doing any more damage to her.

The Round went well for Diam overall regardless, but she has to do some damage at some point if she's going to beat this kitty cat.

(Nope, I am not taking a 1/6 Chance of Success, especially if the failure would likely undo any of the advantage I've gained. Taking my time isn't going to hurt me at this point, so slow and steady will be the strategy.)

"Glad to hear it, lass! *Shakes head* Probably can, but I ain't going to dispute your claim. I will say that Weavile of yours will go grey with age 'fore she can break through Diam's Defenses at this point, though! They've withstood much tougher stuff than that kitty can dish out!"

The wee anklebitter nods her head to those last few remarks, waggling their ginormous garnet tauntingly at her cool cat adversary with an mockingly indulgent grin. She may not have much to do, but what little she is far more than you! We he he!

Now for Ran's commands!

"Diam, outlast this cat, and inflict every little niggle you can on it! They'll break before you do, so keep be hard pain in the arse like your nameshake!"

Orders: Let's do two Rounds of Orders this time: Metal Burst if they do anything but Ice Punch as her first Action (Detect otherwise), then Flash Cannon unless they use Ice Punch (Then Detect). Time to grind away at Weavile, until they're just chipped Ice.
