Sorry.

Don't forget this as well.

Pike has hidden depths.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

Naturally.

[Zaleramancer]

Is there something I'm missing?

[Philote]

No? Yes?

Definitely maybe.

[Zaleramancer]

What would they need..

[Philote]

You can just pick any upgrade to give them.

Who/What is Drav again?

[Zaleramancer]

A dwarf.

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

Drav is going to be fighting against Lo-Kag, so try to make Lo-Kag use all 3 of his tiers. That'll be amusing if he reveals all of his tiers in the second round.

Also, I think I'm the first one to actually use Smite on any of my own races. Made the weak Lycanthropes unable to fully control their transformations.

[Philote]

And Aox is going to force Kagehana use every single one of her abilities right?  

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

If Aox is able to get Kagehana to use 36 levels worth of abilities then yes, but that is far more unlikely than getting someone to use 3 tiers worth of abilities. Plus, she's already revealed 8 levels of abilities while Lo-Kag hasn't revealed anything.

[Philote]

You realize that the tiers are not the same as Kagehana's levels right?

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

Yup, but even then, Kagehana's levels are quite diverse. It should be very unlikely that any one opponent can get her to use all 36 levels unlike your tiers which appear to only be themed towards one thing. Tirion's were all light-based, Thorn's were all nature-based, Rhogar's were all based on his race, and Atlas' were all based on the fact that an Endreakian can develop to become anything. Based on that accumulated data, I'm going to guess that Lo-Kag's are about lightning, water, and wind when I add in that his title is Storm Sovereign and that he used lightning back during the quest that Kagehana did for Bahamut.

[Philote]

Sort of close, but the tiers do not represent a single skill like yours do, they represent different levels of fighting styles with multiple abilities each. For the ones that have already lost, I sped through the tiers just because I thought it would be fun to us them, but I could of made the tiers last longer with the skills they could use if I wanted.

Like thorn's
Tier one is his physical shapeshifts and strengths
tiers two is his magic and spiritual powers
and tier three is all of his nature abilities.

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

I can understand how you could have made Thorn's last longer. In fact, his second Tier could have beaten Taro. How would Tirion have lasted longer on the first 2 Tiers against Kagehana though?

[Philote]

Well, not counting the fact that she had a Divine Artifact, I could of just had him use more skills from the first and second tiers instead of moving to third.

Like the ground consecration skill he used, it was a tier one ability but he didn't use it till he was already in tier two.

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

You mean the 'ring of light' thing? How many different skills did you think of for each tier?

[Philote]

I do not keep a hard list of skills for each hero, I just make the tiers open enough to be used in many ways so that the heroes can have multiple skills ready.

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

In other words you make up the skills on the spot. I guess that works, but I prefer the keeping a hard list of skills and if I see something that works well, then I'll justify adding it to my character's list in some way so that they can use it.

[Philote]

I usually just define what range of skills my character can do, because i Tirion's first tier is his light control, then I don't really have to list every possible way he could control light.
