Questions about proposed changes

[Sigfried Hunin]

@Sig: Why are you against this system of CL, which allows for the balancing of 'areas of expertise'? In your example of yourself and Vad, you mention that Vad is a bad-ass mofo, but that you have focused upon techs. Is it not conceivable that someone, due to sheer technical prowess, might outmatch someone else, who has raw power but not the technique to back it up?

I think that if a person has a shitton of techs and use them cleverly to outmatch and outwit their opponent then they wouldn't be in a direct fight with them. I mean, if Sigfried tried to directly assault Vad (who in this particular scenario has a much higher PL, and Sig has many custom techs) he would lose.

Writing is still a main factor of what goes on so if the person grading the fight is like, "Oh wow that's really clever and good writing on that loser Sig's part" then he could say that he won. However, if the writing was about equal then Vad would be like, "LOL DIE BITCH" and blow him up.

You would be CHOOOOOSSSSIIIING to have a lower PL in EXCHANGE for having a lot of techs. It's a personal choice. You would be accepting "Hey, I'm gonna have a lot of techs and a lower PL so I have a higher chance of losing a fight."
