Hey ladies -- sorry I didn't get this up when I said I would. A little delayed, but you have been patient!
LEGEND
Attack 1REALISM: 4/5 -1 The pastern is a relatively small target, and if Kivioq is moving at all, your chances of striking it are greatly diminished; you should probably take this into account, or at least mention it. POWER: 5/5 Careful with your phrasing -- "a fracture was inevitable" -- certainty is good, but remember there are no absolutes. It's not bad enough that I'm taking a point, but just be careful. TIMING: 5/5 CREATIVITY BONUS: +0 LEGEND
Attack 2REALISM: 4/5 -1 I'm having a hard time seeing how she could pass close enough for their flanks to touch and then get the correct angle to double-barrel his flank. POWER: 5/5 TIMING: 5/5 CREATIVITY BONUS: +0 KIVIOQ
Defense 1REALISM: 5/5 DAMAGE: 5/5 TIMING: 5/5 CREATIVITY BONUS: +0 KIVIOQ
Defense 2REALISM: 5/5 DAMAGE: 4/5 -1 Eek, I don't know that accepting a fractured rib in this situation is good. A big ol' wallop to the side, sure. If you take the hit on the muscle of your haunches, or towards the center of the barrel where the ribs are thicker, you'll come out better. TIMING: 5/5 CREATIVITY BONUS: +0 KIVIOQ
Attack 1REALISM: 5/5 POWER: 5/5 TIMING: 5/5 CREATIVITY BONUS: +1 Excellent use of distraction by lightening the forehand to make her think you're attacking with it! I don't think I've ever seen that before. KIVIOQ
Attack 2REALISM: 4/5 -1 Ehhh...I'm left with some doubt as to whether he'd be able to surge ahead and cow-kick like that. It seems unlikely with his injuries, even though Legend is injured too. POWER: 5/5 TIMING: 4/5 I feel like your expectations are a bit high here. You're unlikely to be able to execute this whole attack before she shies away. CREATIVITY BONUS: +0 LEGEND
Defense 1REALISM: 5/5 DAMAGE: 5/5 TIMING: 5/5 CREATIVITY BONUS: +0 LEGEND
Defense 2REALISM: 5/5 DAMAGE: 4/5 -1 Yikes, you took a lot of damage here! Be careful about taking too much. TIMING: 5/5 CREATIVITY BONUS: +0 LEGEND
Subtotal: 57/60Elemental Score: -1 You're treating your Earth element as if it's level III. Unfortunately, you're not allowed to make your hooves rock or supple the ground beneath your hooves until the next level. Bonus Points: 1 You are EXCELLENT about being honest with taking damage. I did take off one point for you accepting too much, but I love love love that you don't just brush off his attacks. Penalties: -1 Again, sorry - you cannot use your element to manipulate the ground beneath Kivioq's feet. According to the elemental rules, once you are level III, you may have an effect on the ground beneath your own feet - not your opponent's. Just to clear it up! FINAL SCORE: 56/60 KIVIOQ
Subtotal: 58/60Elemental Score: 0 Bonus Points: 1 You, too, get a bonus point for accepting damage well. Yeesh, what a polite battle, you guys let the other horse beat you up! I appreciate your honesty in accepting damage, guys, both of you. Very well done. Penalties: -0 FINAL SCORE: 59/60 By my judgment, KIVIOQ is the winner!
Very well fought, both of you. This is a wonderful example of a polite, well-written battle. Gold stars for both of you :)
If you'd like a more in-depth explanation of anything, feel free to ask! Also, if there are no comments by something, take it as a compliment -- there's not really a space in the rubric to leave comments without taking off points, so I don't do that often. Consider it an attack or a defense well-done if there are no notes with it.
No prisoners since you're both Andarin, etc etc. Again, a lovely battle to judge - thank you.
