Chaos Posted April 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 I would like to note that "mostly immune to Pushing and Pulling" is probably very similar in the way that you "mostly" can't Push or Pull on metals in the body. I suspect that it has to do with some spiritual essence getting in the way with the Push. /theorizing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the same thing I thought. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silus - Shard of Flame Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 Blagh, get sick for a couple of days and look what happens! How about they only get Atium for certain matches, like against those with higher level powers like TLR or Susebron? Well, if Blade/Plate are "mostly" immune to Pulling/Pushing, I'd see that more like they can pull on it, but it's not that effective. It's resistant. I guess the crossover bracket will be different. You want to take over the main one, Chaos? Seems like a staffie should be in charge of the all-Brandon bracket. I say we should have Bastille be on here! More Alcatraz representation!

leinton Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 I'm guessing this would include Lashing? Like, if Szeth went against Vasher, he wouldn't be able to Lash Nightblood directly, similar to how he can't Lash Shardplate directly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, let's do that, and have them offset a little, so they don't conflict which each other. Edited April 13, 2011 by Chaos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaos Posted April 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2011 Yeah, like we don't start the other one until the first is done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silus - Shard of Flame Posted April 14, 2011 Report Share Posted April 14, 2011 Well, we don't know how long that'll take, could be months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeldaDad Posted April 14, 2011 Report Share Posted April 14, 2011 Then it will be months worth of awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos Posted April 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2011 Well, we don't know how long that'll take, could be months. Well, people wanted this cage match first, so we sort of have to do it first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emeralis00 Posted April 26, 2011 Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 This may be a little late, but when you do start the cage match can you put it on the front/home page? I only found this thread through accidentally clicking on the wrong link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe ST Posted April 26, 2011 Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 This may be a little late, but when you do start the cage match can you put it on the front/home page? I only found this thread through accidentally clicking on the wrong link. I'd say it more than likely will be advertised on the front page.

I'm almost done with classes, though, so it'll be soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad_Scientist Posted July 27, 2011 Report Share Posted July 27, 2011 I also think that players should have a vague understanding of their opponents' magics, so Vasher can go, "Hey, wearing metal is dumb here". Wouldn't that pretty much mean anyone fighting Susebron would fight naked? Since he can awaken things just by voice, and thus could awaken their clothes. Should make for some interesting writeups. Well, I bet Shardplate is immune to Awakening, and so Dalinar and Sadeas wouldn't have to worry about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silus - Shard of Flame Posted July 27, 2011 Report Share Posted July 27, 2011 So Shardplate wearers would be going commando? :\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad_Scientist Posted July 27, 2011 Report Share Posted July 27, 2011 So Shardplate wearers would be going commando? :\ Nah, I think awakening Shardplate would be either impossible or beyond Susebron's current skill level, so Shardplate wearers would still be able to wear it against him.

Sprouts Posted July 27, 2011 Report Share Posted July 27, 2011 Seems like it would make quite a mess if a persons clothes suddenly started to try and kill them It's been a long time since I've read warbreaker... That magic system is really overpowered in some ways if you have enough breath. Like Susebron. Luckily I feel like he's to naive to put it to full use.

Mad_Scientist Posted July 27, 2011 Report Share Posted July 27, 2011 (edited) I don't think it's so much his naivete that hurts him as much as his relative inexperience. Instinctive Awakening helps him a lot, but he's still nowhere near a master of Awakening like Vasher, and in addition to that, he has no real experience fighting in general. Well, if he didn't have such weaknesses, I think he'd probably be even more overpowered than the Lord Ruler. Imagine if Vasher had over 65,000 breaths... I'm actually not sure if Susebron would think to Awaken his opponents clothes, but if he did, he'd be very hard to fight for a lot of people. Afterall, even if a Mistborn decided to fight naked, he/she would still want a bag to hold coins and some sort of cloth or belt to hold extra metal vials. Someone like Szeth or Kaladin would want something to carry extra infused spheres. Edited July 27, 2011 by Mad_Scientist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyRioter Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 Susebron's not an idiot, and Awakening somebdy's clothes seems like a fairly obvious tactic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emeralis00 Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 and if I remember correctly, Susebron awakened the tapestries to grab enemies in the palace fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
