Listen - (1d20-1)[12]

Calling for LoS

[Psionic Dog]

((All right, but things move faster if you make listen/spot in the open and let your opponent list results, if any. That's what TheFallenOne and I (usually) did in our Sturmherz vs De'Athbypro Xie matches.

It doesn't always work, but on maps like this and other places where everyone knows one gladiator has LoS to the other it works fairly well.))

Aye, it's simpler that way and with that we managed to go through two matches with I believe only 2 LoS checks in all although Xie did his best to evade me(Oxie had perma-LoS on me so Psidog could tell if LoS on Xie is established and judge if my spot/listen/scent works). Of course, posting your listen rolls in the open gives a slight advantage to you opponent, so it's your choice to let refs handle it. But I think the advantage to Psidog if he knows your rolls is rather limited

anyway

Korra

Spoiler

you hear movement east of you

[AlterForm]

Hmm, I guess you're right. If he only ever checks at the end(s) of his actions, he can never actually use the knowledge against me in a very effective manner.

Also, your grubby weapons are all dirty. No way in heck I'm going to let you muss up my fabulous outfit.

Korra - Round 5

Done

Spoiler

HP: 15/15
AC: 18

Whirling Frenzy Rage: 7/7

Edit: I think that hits for game since the Dodge bonus from total defense don't apply to flat-footed AC.

[AlterForm]

Yep. This was gonna be a quick match either way. Not sure why I thought Total Defense would be any use.

[hustlertwo]

Korra becomes the rare person to get caught flat-footed in a glass arena, and Fingers gets the win.
