When you are done you can see the bald shinigami staring at you.
"What's this?
Don't tell me you're done already."
He says with an annoyed look on his face.

After you regain your composure and manage to ignore the pain you talk back to him.
"Not at all.
I've just never done this before so I made a few mistakes."
With that you spit out the blood that gathered up in your mouth.
"But I'm surprised you actually waited for me like that."

"Yeah well it's no fun if they can't fight back, is it?
And hopefully you won't be so crazy fast now either.
Prepare yourself hollow."
He makes the first move and dashes straight to you.

With your speed returned to normal you can't evade him so easily like before and he'll be expecting Fata Morgana as well.
And he intends to fully capitalize on this by unleashing a barrage of blows so savage it would make most hollows proud.
While his weapon is broken it doesn't seem to affect him much, he is quite impressively chains together the rapid slices and stabs of his new knife with the brutal strikes of those long nunchucks.

At first you wanted to simply endure his blunt attacks and focus your attention on the sharpened piece of metal in his right hand but that wasn't a good idea as they hurt, a lot.
He might not seem like it but behind his speed is a surprising amount of muscle that allows him to do some quite powerful attacks.
So your new course of action was to intercept his blows and redirect them so they deal only minimal amounts of damage while dodging his lunging attacks and trying to counter attack.
The only problem with this strategy was that he is also a very talented fighter, he managed to quickly switch his weapons around and throw off your timing which cost you your hand.
You use sonido to get some space between the two of you and you stare him down while holding your new stump.

He twirls his weapons around and switches them around rapidly to taunt you.
"Heh, looks like I finally got you."

With a grunt you focus on your missing arm and sprout a new one from the stump.
You give it a good few squeezes to get a feel for it as it seems your healing powers are not at one hundred percent right now.

"Oh that's nice.
This means I can keep going for a while."
He smirks.

After making sure everything is in its place you look back at him.
"Creating openings on purpose to lure the enemy in and doing it so well.
You are smarter than I gave you credit for."

"Ready for round two then?"
He raises his weapons.

How do you proceed?
>Beat him with pure martial arts.
>Keep up the trickster act.
>Start using long range attacks.
>*I could just run away, couldn't I?*
>Other? (write-in)

>Keep up the trickster act.
Also, shouldn't we mention that there's ACTUAL threatening hollows trying to take advantage of the nuke? Like, we've been doing this guys job for him for a while now

The current Modern Metagame.

Is there any point to this format anymore? it's just quibbling about banlists and dropping 1000 bucks on a few pieces of cardboard. There is no real purpose to homebrewing for Modern, there's not really any point in playing it because even on the off-chance you win, someone else loses, and more likely than not that one person will be you. Your money is a loss, gone to support the FLGS. The best combinations have already been solved. It's like playing chess against a computer, with a computer.

Sorry but I just don't see the point in Modern anymore. I tried to make a Modern deck on my own but my friend ltierally wanted me to remove the core cards and replace them with Thoughtseize. What the actual fuck? He's even won a few tournaments.

You're feeling pretty good about this. The demon's weapon is huge, clumsy, and - shifting shape.

Of course it is.

The club melts, splitting into a pair of smaller spiked clubs similar in shape but not in size. He parries Verve's next attack and grins viciously.

You draw a machete to go with your iron knife. He's got size and reach on you, and it's not like he's exactly slow. You...

The humanoid spine of the upper centaur torso is not nearly strong enough to support a lance being thrust forward at the speed of a horse. Imagine a horse rider charging a wall with a lance. Upon impact, the kinetic force will travel through the lance and into the body of the wielder. For a normal rider, this will mean getting punched off the saddle of the horse. For a centaur, that will mean snapping the spine at the front hip, likely killing them or paralyzing them. A centaur is much more suited to archery for these reasons.

>hunting with a sword

>I've been doodling around today trying to design an axe or mace that looks like it could be used with finesse in place of a longsword or scimitar, but so far I'm not coming up with much.
That's because axes, hammers and maces have always been the weapons of brutes, OP. Not to say that there's anything wrong with being a brute of course.

Western media has always been pretty focused on traditional, standard weapons. Some RPGs give you a handful of token "exotic" weapons, but they're usually just variant swords or spears. The punch-dagger is a rare exception.

Eastern media and anime, on the other hand, much as I hate getting /a/ in my /tg/, offers some nifty original concepts. One Piece is particularly good for this.
I'm on mobile, but I remember off the top of my head that there was one guy who had a glove with swords attached to each finger tip, and another who had a spear-hammer built out of his armor.

Captain Kuro and Don Krieg. Krieg was more of a brute than a finesse fighter, but he gets bonus points for the weird armor-on-a-pole including a gas attack and a stake launcher.

So what best strategy for chaos in multiplayer? Spam bombardiers?

>>47197182
Use stealth to break contact and let you shoot them when they can't shoot you. Stay away and use long range shit. You are the longest range and sneakest race.

What skills and upgrades, what ships?

Does the Reverse Engineering shard from Worm work on things that aren't strictly technology? For example, could I use it to help me find out the details as to how exactly a system of magic works in scientific terms or help me analyze the physiology of things like Supernatural demons to understand exactly what goes on when they possess someone?
If so, would it be too much of a stretch to use it to 'reverse engineer' someone's thinking process to let me understand them better?

Unless a jumper buys the perk where everybody tends to believe your accusations, nobody's going to believe a guy who suddenly starts yelling that a dog is an alien anyway. And probably not even then, at least not until it's too late for someone(s).

Really, it's the kind of situation where not having superpowers means you simply won't be able to save everyone, despite knowing what's to come - which rather brings the horror home, in a way. Triage in media res.

GW will settle out of court, if anything.

Yup. Most likely Disney will pony up some cash, the artist will be sternly reprimanded or fired, and that issue will be reprinted with altered art and MarvelTau will quietly disappear.
