Private/Closed Naruto AU RP: discussion

And my combat instinct (Which I pre-plan nothing for fights XD) being lackluster is the constant hurdle for me. I just go with what I feel is a good move (Well, after I stopped the hole "allow some of the attack to get through) phase. Just other people here have even better counters XD

Combat instinct is developed, you just need to fight more

Wellll I’ve learned to make something out of only one thing.

That’s what I tested with Zaku. One element, one skill. And he has the highest win streak out of all of our characters. You don’t need a diverse move pool nor even a ton of skills. All you need is a way to use it that you can own and use to your advantage

Kenji: How the hell has that helped me!?
Tomiko: Same.

But I get the advice. Which is kinda sad, considering how long I've been active on the site...

 

[SageNeb]

I mean... I’d try sparring if shen didn’t ask for long timeskips every 5 seconds in break arcs (jk)

Also I’m too tired I gotta sleep sorry

Hmmm, you not really the combat-centric Rper though. Ya need a certain type of drive to be a combat-centric Rper, the sorta drive that makes you see an opponent and be compelled to fight them. Chasing them down with a battle-lust that sometimes downright terrifies them (@DarkHydraT has experienced this deeply, he actually booked it and ran when I told him my CoDa character was coming for his :T now I have to go through 2 different fights before I can hunt him down), and sometimes It's the sort of feeling you get where you honestly want to strangle someone when they deny you the chance to battle them (I'm looking at you @Retro Master )

 

[sSoul]

Match-ups are atrocious indeed

Your telling Me. All the top ninja Molly wop Taiyo and Seiun. At this point Tsuki is a non-factor. Meanwhile Hyo just shuts down Taiyo as well as all of the Hyūga, And as for Seiun...i don't know actually, someone analyse his matchup. Point is, I suck.

Yeah, that's....not me so much XD.

I tend to favor character arcs & development there. Story stuff I try to contribute to, and fights I love but just don't have the pure passion you or others have, they are weaknesses.

But I do want to fight this arc. I need to fight. My characters have gone through training and I've done all I can think of (For now) to try and bump them to a respectable level and I want it to be worth something. It's not a fun RP when your characters for the most part are losers you know?

Tsuki has learned hama’s personal technique. Ice weaving justu. It’s powerful and versatile. You don’t give it enough credit

Seiun hasn’t had much battle time, the only real battles he were in were against Kai and the demon brothers

Lmao I don’t think I denied you, I just stayed quiet.

I also just realized that the last serious battle I focused up was Azumi. That was like 6 months ago...

It's not the jutsu, it's the user. Tsuki is trash, so she wouldn't even be able to beat Kou, all his rats that his mom takes care of would just trample her.

Yeah.....you need a fight retro XD

 

[Godjacob]

A battle that I in part ruined by being too hyper focused on winning winning winning. Which is ironic given I am obsessed with that here with my other characters, so it creates that issue I might ruin another hype fight by relying on cheese tactics out of fear of losing.

Actually, Furījia checks Hyō so brutally it's not even a fair fight.

Tsuki is kinda...fresh outta the academy? She's been learning ninjutsu for what? 3 months? When we were all high-genin tier she couldn't even walk on water.

Taiyo's actually a pretty decent check for Zaku.

Seiun could be a check for Zaku, Reaver and Katsuo depending on how you play it. Tsuki could also be a check for Katsuo once she's...not fresh off her ninja sensei's training.

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

It's not the jutsu, it's the user. Tsuki is trash, so she wouldn't even be able to beat Kou, all his rats that his mom takes care of would just trample her.

You underestimate her now. C’mon. It’s no fun if you just purposely make her trash. Hama would disown her if she does

 

[Retro Master]

Yeah bro, both of us having that mindset cost us. Don’t worry, if they get a rematch we can work together to make it way better!

 

[sSoul]

Okay then, I shall apply myself, but if I loose, I blame it on myself and my lack of foresight and my inability to plan ahead

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

The day out of academy naruto knew a powerful justu that he never learned another one until after the prelims. Beating several ninja. Tsuki is in the same place, except with more training.

 

[sSoul]

Actually, Furījia checks Hyō so brutally it's not even a fair fight.

Oh, I worded it wrong, I meant that The Hyūga and Hyo shut down Taiyo, except maybe Shura, I don't know, they haven't fought yet. And also Shiho, who doesnt even exist anymore....

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

Taiyo's actually a pretty decent check for Zaku.

Eh...I’m not sure I see it. I wouldn’t call it a ‘check’. Seiun is a heavy check though

 

[kyuukestu]

Okay then, I shall apply myself, but if I loose, I blame it on myself and my lack of foresight and my inability to plan ahead

You did pretty well against me, just ya know, don't bring things your opponents are hard counters for.

no guns to a bomb fight, no fire to a water fight, & no smokescreens in an X-ray vision fight. Follow that and you'll be solid. With that in mind, I'd suggest you get Taiyo a second nature that can do well against water.

 

[Retro Master]

The day out of academy naruto knew a powerful justu that he never learned another one until after the prelims. Beating several ninja. Tsuki is in the same place, except with more training.

Uzumaki barrage was the new technique right? And that still used the shadow clones.

 

[sSoul]

Eh...I’m not sure I see it. I wouldn’t call it a ‘check’. Seiun is a heavy check though

I mean...just have Taiyo spam chakra shields, depacitating airwaves ain't going through that.

 

[kyuukestu]

Eh...I’m not sure I see it. I wouldn’t call it a ‘check’. Seiun is a heavy check though

Yasu tactics, replace with puppet arms.

 

[Godjacob]

You did pretty well against me,

This feels like your catch phrase by this point. Almost like you don't want people to be scared to fight you so you insist that they actually did really good and you just don't see it.

JK JK. I get the idea and agree.

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

Uzumaki barrage was the new technique right? And that still used the shadow clones.

Nah, it was summoning gamabunta

I mean...just have Taiyo spam chakra shields, depacitating airwaves ain't going through that.

Those cost as much Chakra as the attack sent toward you. You won’t outlast Zaku that way.

Yasu tactics, replace with puppet arms.

But....Yasu lost 3 out of 3 times

 

[kyuukestu]

I mean...just have Taiyo spam chakra shields, depacitating airwaves ain't going through that.

you're going to be very surprised when decapitation airwaves goes right through that :T

 

[Mystic Zander]

The day out of academy naruto knew a powerful justu that he never learned another one until after the prelims. Beating several ninja. Tsuki is in the same place, except with more training.

Yeaaaaah but I call protagonist hacks. Let's be real, Kiba and/or Neji would've ended him if the fight was based in a real world environment. (A real world....with Naruto powers?)

Edit: Decapitating Airwaves is powerful. The fact that Katsuo wasn't able to hold it off with Mountain Shifting Palm shows it. After all, its his personal combat style, its got some crazy stopping force.

 

[Godjacob]

Yeaaaaah but I call protagonist hacks. Let's be real, Kiba would've ended him if the fight was based in a real world environment. (A real world....with Naruto powers?)

To be fair, if Naruto didn't have the Orochimaru seal prior to the fight it could have ended a lot sooner in his favor. He fought with an unknown handicap.

This is a rare time I speak up in Naruto's defense, so this says something.

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

Yeaaaaah but I call protagonist hacks. Let's be real, Kiba would've ended him if the fight was based in a real world environment. (A real world....with Naruto powers?)

Yeah probably...but then there was Oboro

 

[kyuukestu]

But....Yasu lost 3 out of 3 times

I meant the sacrificing your arms to gain distance tactic. Which will work excellently for Taiyo.

This feels like your catch phrase by this point. Almost like you don't want people to be scared to fight you so you insist that they actually did really good and you just don't see it.

JK JK. I get the idea and agree.

Nah, Soul's only issue in that fight was repeated flup-ups that were just waiting for me to take advantage of.

Imagine the Taiyo vs Furījia battle, but instead Kiro vs Sagisō.

Kiro would've been brutally molested by the gentle fist. Taiyo only barely got through that cause puppet arms.

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

I meant the sacrificing your arms to gain distance tactic. Which will work excellently for Taiyo.

I mean...maybe? Zaku is all about concubine force and splash damage, so most likely he will either his all or none of Taiyo

 

[Retro Master]

Kiro would've been brutally molested by the gentle fist.

Well then

 

[sSoul]

With that in mind, I'd suggest you get Taiyo a second nature that can do well against water.

I've been an advocate for Wind Release Taiyo, it's just that I need to think how I'll travel up to Mount Myoboku for Sage Mode and then learn Wind Style from whoever is willing to teach.

 

[sSoul]

Taiyo: Sounds great except my arms are the only thing that give a me a fighting chance against Zaku. How does losing them help?

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

Well then

Ha, with lightning and a curse mark as your ally, id be surprised if they managed to hit a gentle fist through LCM

I've been an advocate for Wind Release Taiyo, it's just that I need to think how I'll travel up to Mount Myoboku for Sage Mode and then learn Wind Style from whoever is willing to teach.

I suggest going to the land of wind, the hidden sand village. There you can pick up a wind justu as well as new puppet enhancements all from the same area

 

[kyuukestu]

I mean...maybe? Zaku is all about concubine force and splash damage, so most likely he will either his all or none of Taiyo

Eh, that's why I said he's a decent check and not an amazing one. There's also the point that Soul hasn't actually been using FBS like FBS, but instead just as a fiery aura. Since FBS is an augmentation move, the chakra should be focused more internally that exploding outwards in a fiery blaze. That way he can have an actual explosive boost in speed and power.

I'll probably have Hinagiku bring it up once she sees FBS.

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

Okay first...wow the typo there XD

Zaku either has people he can crush against, neutral too, or those that can crush him. Very little in between

 

[Retro Master]

Can’t the gentle fist cut through chakra? Since it’s still lightning chakra, the gentle fist should be able to go through I think.

 

[kyuukestu]

Well then

Yea, sorry but if you crippled your own Sharingan with a smoke screen and then ran into close-combat range of Sagisō, I would've had her viciously wrecked all of Kiro's chakra points. LCM isn't much of an armor, and what little defensive properties it offers are nerfed by Sagisō's wind-style. Without the Sharingan to help him actually dodge her, and having already been rushing into close-combat...well, the result wasn't gonna be pretty.
