Hey I got cut several times but who cares as long as I deliver one hard hit!
>>1468823
did you know there are schools that focus on sliding cuts which require almost no power but leave devastating wounds?

Nobody is claiming this is a perfect 1 to 1 representation of stabbing each other to death, man. Just enjoy the robotmen whacking each other with sticks... Or don't. It's as close as it gets so far.

Why the fuck does the ref have a shield and hatchet?
